PROVISIONS last week the
course of the market has continued up
ward and we have to report further
advance of cent Oh \. G. Bacon, and
! cent on Western smoked aud b1li1

to look up on account OF the better
prices being paid at the North and
West, which advances will naturally
fall on our market, as we are governed
entirely by above market. At the close,
however. the market is easier. There
is great scarcity Of n. G. Bacon and
the demand fer this kind of meats is
as large as we have known in some
months. Western smoked meats are
also wanted and prices given to-day
are readily paid for all meats of that
character or kind. From the Cincin-
natl Price Current we copy the follow
ing article on the market for the week
ending to-day:
The long, rapid and steady advance
in bulk meats and bacon seemed to
have eliminated Oh Monday last, and
since then there has been decline on
some articles. While prices were ad
vancing, orders were pressed forward
as though there would be no end to
the appreciation III prices, the chief
aim of buyers seeming to be to secure
a supply; the consequence is that the
present demand has been SO generally
filed that there IS now n cessation in
the activity which has recently char
acterizeti the market. But stocks of
all articles, except perhaps shoulders
and hams, have been so much reduced
that, even with a smaller demand, the
trade feel confident that there will be
no surplus at the end of the season.
The stock of hams is not vesy large,
but there is more disposition on the
part Of holders to meet the views of
buyers There is q better supply of
shoulders than of any other article,
and as they are elatively much cheaper
than sides at the current prices it is
quite probable that the consumptive
trade will be attracted to them until
stocks are Cquaiized.
The following are the ruling quota
tons of the provision market here:

quotations in the provision mar
