firm, aud 4 advance WAS obtained Tor bulk
mea.s. The feeling On the part Of holders il
decidedly strong, and we cannot see any dis
position 10 force sales; this is partly in conse~
ouence Of the fact that there are several orders
here from the South, and some from other
| piaceB, which though. in the aggregate, small
for the Season, get IN attempt to fill them gives
| confidence. A large number Of contracts are
on the verge Of maturing. and It ID supposed
| there will DC Y demand for stuff to ill them
which will impart buoyancy to the market
that must necessarily lead to an advance. Ness
Pork WIS in demand at $16.759l7, the latter
| rate for class brands, and at the close there
| we're more buyers thAr sellers At these ratea,
the latter class Of brands being held at BITES.

| s,aeB sold to-day 1T 7}}Ic loose, uud Shoulders
ut SIC packed, whieta equal to 5I9c loose.
Lard Was held firmly Il lie. but there was not
much done. The receipts Of LOGS are now in.

over. We did not hear of q sale today. The
