Show Rise in Beef. Yesterday there was a rise in beef on foot in this market, from four to seven cents per pound. We un-derstaud un-derstaud the elevation in the price was not occasioned by a combination of stock owners, but by tho general scarcity of livo stock in the market, which is a result of tho late severe snowstorms. It is probable the advance ad-vance in retail prices will not ba so great as it has been in wholesale at any rate it ought not to bo, as the retailors re-tailors can well afford to purchase at sovon cents, and then sell for the ao-customed ao-customed prices.
