WOOL AND WORSTED.—ThuntrOnD,Jan. 22.—There
Is great quietness in the market today. Very little wool
is changing bends. The operations are still confined daily
to the finer sorts. Prices are exceedingly firm. Tke
demand for yarns is chiefly softened to the home houses.
The export houses are doing little. There is a very good de-
mand for two-folds. Prices are without change. The piece
market has been thinly attended, and not much fresh loft.
MO barn been done by either home or American merchant,.
The export bowies have been equally inactive, and the
demand has been confined to a few orders in mottles, three.
quarters worsted luting and serge. The stocks of the
latter have rather decreased during the week, a circum-
stance caused doubtless by the immediate requirements for
the Spanish trade. There is no alteration in prices for any
description of goods.

LACE AND Ho9=y. —NOTTINGHAM, JAN. 22.—he
hopeful symptoms for the spring trade still contioue. For
the time of the year that. are some good orders on band
for the home trade and for the exportation to America and
the Continent. There are also favourable symptoms of a
check in the readmit advance of cotton, and if the lower
marks are to be purchased au rather eerier terms in opine-
mum*, an improved &mead for eheap nets may be expected.
Silk laces and Mechlin* are inquired for somewhat more
freely than of late. The hosiery trade is scarcely so buoyant,
but the largest homes my there is as much doing u could
reasonably be hoped for while yarns are so high, and they
confidently anticipate an enormous demand from the Stater
as moon as anything like an accommodation as be effected
in that distracted country.—Nottingham Journal.

CORN. —Busmen nue , Jen. 22. —At Os is market there eras
a fall supply of wheat from the farmen, and the trade closed

wheat than last week ; but the condition is still indifferent.
Bert parcels made about lest week's rates : other qualities

wheat was from 245. to 26e. By the clam of the market
everything was bought up. There was a larger supply of
barley, and more purchasers in attendance then bet week.

currencies ; several lots again making 425. per qr. • bet all

XLICIIISTMI, lAN. 22. —Oar market this mare* was
a a very quiet character. Dry sample' of English wheat
raidutained last week's rites, but damp aorta wereltieglected
and rather lower. American was the turn in favour of
buyers. Flour met an exceedingly slow sale, and barely
supported the previous currency. Oats brought ld. per
4511*. arid oatmeal 6d. per load advance. English beans
most be quoted la per quarter dearer. Eeyplasa betas and
Indian oorn were each 6d. par quarter higher.
