LONDON PROVISION MARKETS. Monday, Nov. 15. - The arrivals last week from
Ireland were 5,562 firkins butter and 2210 bales bacon; and from foreign
ports 7690 casks butter and 125 bales bacon. In the Irish butter market the
business transacted last week was chiefly confined to the finest sorts at
little ** no change in prices. Middling descriptions still meet a very slow
sale. Best Dutch sold well. The bacon market ruled very flat; and the
supply being more than ***** ***** , prices declined 2s to 3s per cwt
without causing improved demand, and the market closed quiet at 48s to 53s
landed, according to quality.

LONDON WOOL MARKET, Monday, Nov. 15 - Owing to the great firmness in the
transactions at the colonial wool sales now in progress, there are no
sellers of English wool, except at an advance in the quotations of 1d to 2d
per lb. at present, however, this improvement has not been realised, but
there is every prospect of an upward movement in value. The supply of wool
here is very moderate.
