PROVISIONS.

LIVERPOOL. JUNE 22. The demand for beef is only
moderately active; in prices ,there is no alteration ; but the
reduced stock imparts considerable firmness to the market. ,In
pork the transactions for the week are under the average; prices
are well supported, and a slight increase in demand would pro-
bably lead to a further advance. There is a lull in the bacon
market, the dealers realising their late purchases before following
the advance. The light stock leads to the expectation of still •
higher prices as the season advances. Shoulders much wanted. 1
Lard is in fair consumptive demand, and an &trance of 3d to 6d
per cwt. has in some cases been realised. Cheese sells readily at
the quotations. Grease butter scarce and wanted. 1
JUNE 25.—There was a decided improvement in the butter i
market thring the past week, the transactions were, to a fair !
extent, at full prices; the high rates paying in Ireland cause
holders now to ask an advance of Is to 25 per Oft,- and the
most, cts are that present prices will not be lower-for a short
time. Waterford, Carrick, Dungarvon, and Clonmel, 926 to 94s ;
Kilkenny, Carlow, and Wexford, 90s to 935; Limerick, 87s to 90s
per cwt. landed. -Imported from Ireland, from the 16th to the
22nd instant, both inclusive, 10,845 firkins, 129 kegs, 422 crocks,
432 boxes, 222 barrels butter, 61 bales bacon, 6 lihls. 20 tierces
