CATTLE MARKETS

LIVERPOOL, Nov. 2l.—We have had increased supplies
of stock, and demand less animated than the two previous
weeks. Good qualities of Beef and Mutton maintained pre-
vious value, but middling and inferior orts rated rather
lower. Good Beef was sid to 6d per lb., Mutton 6id to
7d.—Cattle, 2,770: Sheep, 8,680.

SALFORD, Nov. 16.—The number Beasts larger, and
of very middling quality in general, from 44d to sid, and
mostly all sold up at the close. Sheep larger in number, and
of middling quality, 6d to 7d, and a few left at the close.
Calves from 6d to 7d, and all sold.—Number of Beasts, 1,609;
Sheep, 5,864; Calves, 130.

DUBLIN, Nov. 17.—The market to-day was rather small,
which, with a very brisk demand for the English market,
caused prices to advance, and all to be sold at an early hour.
The advance was fronr2os. to 30s. per head on Cattle. Prime
Sheep very few. Veal very scarce and very dear. First-class
Heifer Beef brought 565. per cwt., sinking offal; Mutton,
7d. per lb„ do; Veal, 80. per lb., in do. Pigs—good sales,
at a reduction of 2s. per cwt., but in proportion to Bacon,
Prices. 455. to 475. per cwt.

PROVISION

MARKETS

LIVERPOOL, Nov. 18.—For the fine descriptions of Beef
there is a fair demand, at full prices ; ordinary and inferior
qualities are difficult to sell. The inquiry for pork has been
rather better this week, but holders being free sellers there
has been no alteration in quotations. Bacon sells slowly at
last week's prices. The demand for Lard has fallen off, but
the firmness of holders has prevented any decline. Fine
Cheese sells readily at full prices ; but the inferior descrip-
tions continue neglected.
Nov. 21.—There was a large business transacted in Butter
last week, at improving rates. Speculators took some large
parcels to hold over, and the dealers came {into the mar-
ket and purchased to a:fair extent. Holders now demand
an advance of 3s to 4s on the quotations of the 14th inst. The
arrivals are by no means large, and, as stocks are rapidly de.
creasing, a still further advance may be expected. Water-
ford. Carrick, and Clonmel,"9Bs to ION; Kilkenny, Carlow,
and Wexford, 96s to 98s; Belfast, 95s to 975; Limerick,
92s to 955; Sligo, 91s to 955; and Pickled Cork, 2nds, 89a
per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland, from the 12th Nov.
to the 18th Nov., both inclusive, 10,315 firkins, 118 kegs,
664 crocks, 241 boxes, and 224 brls. butter; 83 bales Bacon ;
