CURING PoRK.-It is well known
that Irish provisions have been, and
still are generally used throughout Flu,
rope, as well MS the States. The quail
ty is a good accommodation, and the
mode of preserving them contributes, in
no small degree, to their value. Yet,
there is another point IN which they diff
fer from the salt provisions of almost
every country, simple in itself, yet ex-
trcmely useful, as it saves labor in the
dis ribution, and of course gives it the
preference with those who have the pow
err of approving or discouutenancing it;

a proper size, to suit u small mess, both
for navy, army and private use. If
American pork of the same quality were

a ready sale at foreign markets,
