PROVISIONS Provisions the
market here this week has in general
been quiet, but it has for several days
past been improving III tone, and it
closes strong for hog products gener-
ally, with an active consumptive de-
mand. The trade here are however
getting their supplies principally at
the West, and but few round lots are
changing hand. From the Cincinnati

sustained further advance of to &C.
per pound on all articles, under good
consumptive demand and Il stronger
market in New York. The foreign ex-
ports from all ports for the week
ending Saturday, March 7, were
b, low those for the corresponding
week last year, were larger than had
been sntipated, and contributed its
influence towards strengthening the
| market. The consumptive demand
has improved somewhat, and the sta
tistics show that the shipmen S are
quite liberal, the amounts of orders
coming direct to pacera being sattis-
factory, and indicating that the domes-
| tic consumption is steadily reducing
stocks. But to-day there was partial
reaction, and more disposition to real
ize at the current prices, and i'll some
! distances there We're sales at cents
| below the highest point of the week,
with quite liberal offerings at the
close, and less demand than has pre-
| vailed for several days, either for pres
| ent or future delivery.
