WOOL AND WORSTED.—Ba•Drokh, Burr. 15.
There is great quietness in the market to-day. The better
tone visible oe Monday bad pared sway. There was some
fear that the Bank would again raise the rata of diaconal,
and this Waded to check busmen dories the morning. Some
rale/ was felt when it was 11•001111104 d that the Bank direc-
tors had separated without making any further advance.
Some small lots of wool, required for immediate use,
changed hands. Prices are generally well maintained. In
some instances needy holders will make a slight concemism,
but most have coufidence that the preseckdifficulty will soon
diaappear. The same &these characterine the other de-
partmenta of the trade. Both wonted yarns and pieces are
in little request. The state of the market, indeed, is one of
suspense and uncertainty, arising from cirenmetaneee pre-
closely referred to—the high price of money end this=
specie of the American question. Neither buyers nor s
oars at present about biennia. and see disposed to wait for
a turn of semis. The same irregularity as to prices pre-
rails in both yarns and pieces.

. LACE AND HOSIERY.—NorrnfoRAL Barr. ES.—
Both the staple trades of the tows are still in a very len•
good condition, ad slthoogh one large house in the lace
trade reports a slightly improved demand for silk goods,
the condition of things generally is not reassuring. As soon
is the present dead weight is taken off the motley market,
and there ie less uncertainty about the pries of the raw
material, there is no doubt that a considerable impetus will
be gives to trade, as many stocks need replenishing. The
hosiery boons generally say that trade in all departments
is as dull as it can possibly be, in fact the state of the
cotton market is producing a little panic amain buyers, as
many order, as possible being countermanded under the
feat that prices may suddenly collapse, sad reduce the value
of stocks. If there Is any ground for the alarm, some knees
will undoubtedly be experienced daring the transition, but
the trade will never be thoroughly monad till something like
normal prices prevail ; the sooner, therefore, the crisis is
past the better.—Nottinghan Journal.

CORN.—Bnixticcium, SEPT. 15.—At this day's market
there was a fair supply of wheat from the farmers—buyers
as well as sellers seamed careless about business ; the sales
made were at a &dies of ls. per quarter. No quotable
alteration took place in value of barley, oats, beans, or peas,
with less demand.
Balsrot, SW?. 15.—Oar market to-day ruled very dull
for all articles ; English wheat was io small supply, and
gave way Is. per qr. A limited inquiry for foreign, at a
decline of fully Is. per qr. Malting barley quiet, at Ma.
to lfia per qr. for Si. heavy Emilia. The demand for
grinding is much less than usual at this period, and values
gave way lid. per qr., the sales being capered to retail
transactions. Oats mere off to a fear extent, but with
liberal supplies from Ireland holders bad to concede fid.
per qr. to effect en•ship clesranom Consumers of maim
having fully supplied themselves, the demand has come
almost to a standstill, and a reduction in price fails to
tempt buyers. Beans and peas very dull without quotable
change in value.
