PROVISION

MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL, MAY 27.—The market for Beef does not im-
prove, buyers cannot be induced to operate, except to supply
their immediate wants, and the sales of the week are again on
a most limited scale. There is a moderate retail demand for

Pork, without alteration in prices. The demand for Bacon
continues good, the deliveries are large, and prices are well
supported. Shoulders, also, are taken off readily ex ship.
About 200 tons Lard on the spot' and for delivery have been
taken this week, at steady prices. For Cheese very high prices

have been made.
MAY 30.—The Butter rnarke4, hto been very dull, and prices

have further declined lOs to 12s per cwt. since our last report.

tions) and holders would most likely give way Is to 2s to make
better progress in sales. The finest brands of Waterford, Car--
I ClOnMel. &C.) may now be quoted at NS. to Oh and
