WOOL.—Ba•Drours JULY B.—The tendency which
was manifested last week to a decline in the prices of wool,
does not appear to-day, but prices are more steady. There
is an adequate supply of wool in the market, and the wants
of spinners are well met. There is a considerable coosump•
tins of wool, but an entire absence of specrlation. There
is little or no change in yarns. Notwithstanding the Liver-
pool
market is quieter than last week, and wool showed
signs of giving way, yet the prices of yarns
is maintained. Spinners cannot produce for lees
money, and merchants, though they say that
they cannot give the high prices current, still do a
moderate amount of basilicas. There is no change in the
piece market. The disinclination for business continues ;
neither the home nor the export demand shove improve-
ment, and the sale of goods suitable for the American
market has again been on the most limited sale. There is
still a fair business in Coburg., Verona., and China figures,
but seen in these the new orders are only email. As
regsrds prima, they must be quoted fully as high as last
week. Six-quarter merles Orleans are accumulating in the
manufacturers' hands, but with the exception of than
storks are generally reprenated ea low.

LACE AND HOSIERY. - NOTTIKOHAY, JOLT 9.
Lace : The month of Jely Wag what may be termed
"between seasons," or a period what articles are purchased
more for immediate use than to snit the fashion., trade is
quiet without being at all depressed. There are a few Ger-
man buyers about, who have been giving tolerably good
orders. The Italian trade is also tolerably active. Nearly
all Elide of oak* good@ are leas inquired for, but black silk
lams and guiltier also sell freely. Hosiery : We are able to
report that the little improvement noticed in our last week's
report still continua", and also that there is a more hopeful
feeling in the trade generally. Some manufacturers inform
us that, in their opinion, the trade has seen Its worst.
, There has been a little more business doing both for home

and shipping. Yana maintaia precious prices.—Nottsng-
haat Juensal.

CORN. -Bnutricuse, JULY 9.—At this day's market
there was a short supply of wheat from the farmers, which
found buyers slowly at a &ohm of Is. per quarter; oa
foreign, Is. to 2s. Barley quite as dear. On oats, beans,
and peas the turn in pnce was in favour of the buyers.
The millers have reduced the retail price of dour Is. ltd. per
sack.
•• • -

DRITLIS, JULY 9. -We have again a very small supply of
corn-the smallest we have seen for years -with a short
attendance, attributable, DO doubt, to the fine weather, and
the desire that is naturally felt to " make hay whale the sun
shines." We cannot, however, quote any alteration in
price from last week, although nearly everything was cleared
off. Report. from all parte of the country concur in repre-
senting the appearance of the crops as most encouraging.
The growing corn everywhere presents a promise of
abundaua, and should the fine weather last we may
anticipate both a bountiful and an early harvest. Best red
wheat, Zia. to 245. ; inferior sorts, 17s. to Vs.; grinding
barley. 30s. to 33e. ; calm, 21s. to 28s. ; beans, 20s. to

MANCHINTER, JOLT 9.-Oar market this morning was
tolerably well atteaded. English wheat of good guilty was

' other sorts were neglected, and almost nominal perin 'aloe
American sold slowly at • decline of 2d. to 3d. per 100th..
For dour there was scarcely any demand, and its value may
be considered 6d. per sack and barrel lower than on this day
se'nnight. Oats and oatmeal were taken sparingly, at prices
in favour of buyers. Beans and Indian corn were in limited
request, at late rates.
NIWARK, JULY 8.-As exceedingly thin attendance at our
corn-exchange to-day, and little bylines doing. Wheat
may be quoted le. per qr. leas than last weak. other
grain no alteration.

the greater part was sold at prices rather in favour of the
buyer. Very little doing in spring corn.
Cinemas, July 9. -There was so little doing at to-day's

supply of store cattle, and large sales effected at last week's

but prises rather low. Not so fall a supply of pip as we
have men at this market, and the demand very quiet,
owing to the warm weather ; porkers and bacon pip real-
ised from lin. ed. to Bs. 9d. per score. Small show of horses,
and little doing. _ _ _ . . . • •

CHEESE.--SALISBCHT, JOLT 9.—Our monthly market,
held to-day, was very sparingly supplied with stock,
particularly good old samples. We had a fair attend.
altos of buyers and nearly the whole of the primed
lota were cleared early, fully maintaining last market's

without variation of prices, which averaged as follows:

THE IKON TRADE.—Bnurniamut, Jun'
second meeting of the iroaniastere of this district for the
current quarterersa held in the Towe-hall here to-day. The
attendance was large, and the nature of the business Unw-
anted showed a marked improvement on that at Waver.
hampton on Wednesday, for although there was no appear-
ance whatever of animation, a very fair quantity of iron was
sold, the London sad other exporting firma evincing their
coo tidence in the future of prime by the readiness with
which contracts were entered into. The second-clams ma ken
are also obtaining some advantage by the stoppege which
has taken place at some of the works consequent oo the
strike ; from that cause they are obtaining better prices
than they were three months ago. Pig iron was in mode-
rate demand, the price being not quite so good as it was last
quarter-day, the highest price for good hot-blast being 31.
per ton. The puddler,' strike is operating mischievous) yin
various ways, but the masters ate more determined than
ever to enter into no compromise with the men. Those in
the employ of the New British Iron Company are now
" out ;" the notice given by some of the puddler* in the
employ of Messrs. Philip Williams and Sone, of Wednes-
bury Oak, expired last Saturday ; the men quitted their
work, and their places were immediately supplied by others.
