WOOL AND WORSTED.—BasPromi, Jerre 25.
The reports from the country show that the operations
there are still proceeding at very light rates, which cannot
be sustained in this market. Operations, though consider-
►ble, are consequently still conducted in this market with
great caution, spinners buying from hand to mouth. There
in considerable bunions dons in worsted yarns, espe-
cially in moll orders for quick delivery. The spin-
ners bare been able to advance the prices, but
this tends to cheek openness. Twofold, continue eery
brisk, end the home trade shows some signs of revival.
We cannot report much animation in to-day's market, nor
is there any improvement in the general demand. The un.
settled aspect of polineal matters, the uneasiness on the
American question, but above all the present range of
prices, are alanning an unfavourable influence. Bonnets
unusually quiet fur the time of the year, and manufac-
turers declare that the speculative and other orders placed
are after all too small in extent to keepeven half of their
machinery at work. The fine weather and the prospects of
a good harvest are favourably affecting the home trade, and
business is pretty good in the warehouses.

THE IRON TRADE.--Srouutorroar., Jaxc 25.—The
usual preliminary meeting of the South Staffordshire and
East Worcestershire ironmasters was held at the Stewpormy
Inn today, avd was very numerously attended. Owing to
the excitement in the trade coosequent on a number of the
peddlers being on strike, it was deemed advisable on this
occasion to invite all members of the trade, whether mem-
ber. of the association or not, to attend. The meeting was
attended by Philip Williams., Esq., the chairman of the
trade, W. Mathews, Eq., R. Smith, Esq. (agent for the
Earl of Dudley), and most of the priocipalironmastersci the
district. It was resolved that there should be no advance
in prices, which will continue se follow :—Ban, Ti. per ton ;
hoops, 71. 10.. ; and sheets, 81. 10s. A very lengthened and
animated discussion ensued as to the steps to be adopted ie
consequence of the ill-advised coarse taken by some of the
puddles in demanding a rise in wages. It was unanimously
agreed that any advance in the present price of iron would
be most disadvantageous to the trade of the district, and
would have a most serious effect if it were not productive of
permanent injury to the trade ; and a resolution was passed
to the effect that no advance should be given to the toes ,•
and pledging the trade to deliver a larger proportion at
peddled bus to the works where the men are now out. The
greatest unanimity on this subject prevailed. It wee
proposal by some members that I general "locksiat"
should take place; but the majority were of opinion thot
snob a step at present would be promoter*, as it was hoped

that the men would before long see the MO of Mir pm
erecting cod return to their wcrk. Should the am sot re,
turn to their employmestt a geastal lock-ost will in all
bability take place•
