PROVISIONS.-Under the inhuen CO of the
| corner reported in the Western markets, and
| gradually advancing tendency of the Northern
! prices i'll our market have been tending up
ward, and We note an advance OF to * cents
on Western bulk meats, and to ceRts on
! Carolina bacon. The market is almost entirely
bare OF North Carolina meats, but the demands
are very limited, aud receipts of any size would
check the upward movement. The demands
| for Western and smOkc4 meats are fair. and
transact iOns have beeI. free al the advance.
! Our quotations for North Carolina are entirely
nominal, but we think about correct for
wholesale transactions. We quote North Caro-
lima as follows: 3 to cents tor shoulders, IL to
IL cents for sides, 12 cents for hog round and 1G
to II cents for hams. We quote Western meats
as follows: 9x cents for shoulders, 1Ox to Tx
cents for middlings, IL to 10 cents for hams.
Dry Sailed shoulders to 81 cents, middlin gs
~ to 10 centS--LARD.-The market il
lightly stocked. Carolina sells at IL to 124
cents per Id. Northern steam refined, i'll kegs
| and buckets, at IL to 12K cents per ID.
FLOUR.-Owing to the corner reported IN
wheat at the principal flour markets prices
have advanced about % cents. The oak OF
the lower grades are large, but new goOd extras
are scarce. Very little OF the crop wheat
has yet been ground, and in consequence State
brands We refer to table of
wholesale prices for quotations OF both Northern
and State brands.
CORN MEAL-The tame feeling in the gra n
m l1et has character zed this article with q
rather dull tendency and we have to report a
decline of 24 cents. The receipts are light and
the City Mills are supplying the demand at 81
CB$l O5 per bushel.
EGGS-The continued scarcity has caused a
further advance of cents. Dealers are pur-
chasing by the quantity at IS to 80 cents per
dozen.
| BEEF CATTLE-Havc been brought in quite
| freely during the past week, but the demands of
| the butchers are quite small, and the extent OS
| their purchases are such will supply their
immediate wants. A good drove would bring 8
| to 10 cents per ID. on the hoof.
! PEANUTS-As for two or three months past,
the market during the week just ended has ex-
| perienced no change of quotations. The re-
| ceipts growing smaller and smaller, but Il Q
| exports are comparatively light. and the stock
| in market remains in nearly balanced condi-
ton. Sellers offering freely, but the pur-
chases are small.
