PROVISIONS

LIVERPOOL, JULY 28.—For fine beef the demand is
good, but the secondary sorts are only a slow sale; as the
stock, however, is light, holders continue very firm.
Good pork is scarce and wanted, but there is a large
supply of secondary and inferior American, which is un-
saleable, even at a considerable decline in price. The
demand for bacon is only moderately active, and prices
are rather in favour of buyers, especially for out-of-con-
dition parcels. The consumption is understood to be large,
and the stock here decreasing. In shoulders and hams
there is no new feature. The market for lard is quiet,
and the sales for the week are below an average extent :
we quote a decline of 6d per cwt. The cheese by the
Atlantic was only in middling condition, hence the prices
made were not so good as expected. There is not much
doing in grease butter, but a better demand is now looked
for.

JULY 31. Our butter market was quiet and the trans-
actions were to a trifling extent last week. Holders are
not pressing sales, as the advices of high rates still paying
in Ireland continue, and there are no stocks of consequence
held here, Waterford. Caarick, and Clonmel, 92s to 95s ;
Kilkenny, Carlow, and Wexford, 91s to 93s ; Limerick,
86s to 90s ; Sligo, 86s to 92s ; and pickled Cork 2nds,
ns per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland, from the
22nd to the 28th ult., both inclusive, 13,968 firkins,
163 kegs, 441 crocks, 264 boxes, 222 barrels butter,
74 bales bacon, 14 hhds. 7 tierces hams, and 100 kegs
lard.
