PROVISIONS.

LIVERPOOL, Jrirs 9.—At full prices the sales of
beef for the week are to an average extent, and the market
has an improving appearance. In Pork there is not
much passing; holders are very firm, however, and the
stock is low. The demand for Bacon is good, and the
sales exceed the average extent, at very full prices. Com-
pared with fresh meat (beef and mutton) American Bacon
is relatively now by far the cheapest article of its class.
Shoulders and hams in fair request. An advance was
established in Lard in the early part of the week, and the
sales reach to nearly 400 tons, chiefly at 495. 6d., the
market wearing a tolerably firm aspect at this price. No
Cheese here. Grease butter wanted.
JrNE 12.—There has been a good demand for butter
since our last report, and prices have advanced 2s per cwt.
The consumption is excellent ; and as the dealers hold no
stocks, prices will no doubt be maintained until the
supply increases considerably. The most esteemed
brands of Waterford, Carrick and Clonmel, may now
be quoted 92s to ols ; Kilkenny, Carlow, and Wexford,
91s to 935; Limerick, 87s to 89s; Cork, 3rds, 84s to 85s,
and 4ths, 755, per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland,
from the 3rd to the 9th inst., both inclusive, 8,828
firkins, 40 kegs, 413 crocks, 275 boxes, 310 barrels
butter, 251 bales bacon, 10 hhds. 12 tierces hams, and 20
kegs lard.
