LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCH 12.
The market continued firm, with a good business doing, until
the arrival of the steamer on Nfonday ; upon her advices being
published, holders became rather more anxious sellers, and as
the demand, from the trade has now become more moderate,
prices of Aweriean descriptions have generally given way id.
per lb., this reduction being mere observable in the middling
and lower des:Tiptions. Brazil has been in good request, and
Pernam and Maceios are td. per lb. dearer. Egyptian also
command very full prices. Although the business in Surat is

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, MARCH 12.
There has been an active inquiry for new Beef, but the sales,
for want of supply, have been limited ; of old the stock be-
comes daily reduced, and higher prices are now asked by hold-
ers, which.are likely to be realised as soon as the recent pur-
chases of the dealers are exhausted. Pork, from all quarters,
continues very scarce. Bacon has been in moderate request,
at steady prices. Shoulders must be quoted Is. dearer. No
change in hams. The demand for Lard has,fallen off, but there
being scarcely any stock, late prices are maintained. Cheese
continues in moderate demand. Butter is lower 25., and dull
at the decline.
