PROVISIONS.

LIVERPOOL, Nov. 30.—The result of the admiralty contract
has had a depressing effect on the market for beef ,• holders do
not give way much, but there is a great absence of demand, and
the sales of the week are again considerably below the average.
Pork is also depressed in consequence of the moderate prices ob-
tained from the government; but the very light stock has pre-
vented any reduction in price. A large portion of American pork
it will be observed, has been contracted for, which Is a new feature.
New American bacon is generallyrwanted at this moment, but,
from the low prices paid for the contract pork, and the small
quantity contracted for, there is a less sanguine feeling as to fu-
tureprices for bacon. Lard is quiet, and the few sales made are
at about last week's prices. There is a slight improvement in the
demand for cheese, but the stock here is large.
DEC. 3.—The butter market has been inactive, only a limited
amount of business was done last week, but the stock held here
being unusually small for the period of the season prices were
fully tnaidtained, with no prospect of lower rates, but the con-
trary. Waterford and Dungarvan, 107 s to 110 s •, Carrick, Carlow,

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.—The number of years this in-
valuable Ointment has stood the test of public opinion, and the
longer known the better appreciated, is a testimony of itself more
powerful than anything that could be written in praise of the
curative properties it possesses. For ringworm, scald-heads, and
bu
rl ceearsst
sm, shortly be healed by ifs use. For tumours, bad
all diseases of the skin, it is unequalled ; recent wounds or old
sacyrovfeurlya, and sore legs, there is no remedy to be compared
with it, and in conjunction, as a purifier of the blood, and to effect
certain cures, Holloway's Pills should be taken.
WHILST milliohs of our fellow-beings groan in absclute
despair under the various and contradictory "treatments" of
which nauseous drugs, and every description of harassing and
torturing appliances form the principal ingredients, it is delightful
to have to record the continuous progress, in general confidence,
of a preparation which, we are justified in saying, has done more
to prevent human misery and untimely death than any or all the
agencies which science bad previously brought to light, We here
allude to Messrs. Du BARRY'S celebrated REVALENTA ARABICA
FOOD, which, besides being a delicious article of general diet,
effectt speedy and perfect restoration to health in cases where long
and expensive courses lof medicine have previously been tried in
vain. In infaney, as in maturity and old age, the same unvarying
and unfailing effect is produced, ant it is but fair to acknowledge,
that by the introduction of this food, Messrs. Du Barry have con-
ferred a substantial boon upon mankind. For further particulars
we refer our readers to Messrs. Du Barry's advertisement in our
to:clay's columns.

IMPORTANT CArnoN against the fearful dangers of spurious
imitations .—The Vice-Chancellor Sir William Page Wood granted
an Injunction on the 10th March, 1854, against Alfred Hooper
Nevin,, for imitating "Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food."
