WOOL MARKET-THIS DAY.

The forei..m Wool market continues in a very inactivo
state, and in as probability will remain so for the remainder
of the month. There is some probability of a little de-
mand springing up from France as things ln•como
settled, the manufacturers there being all low in
stork. Prices remain firm. This weekv imports of
wool into Loudon have been rather large, comprising
3,953 bales from Islay, from Algot Bay, a from Ham-
burg, d 2 from 'Trieste, 64) from Taganrog, 1 from Bombay,
and 60 from Alexandria, in all 6,101 bales.

METALS. Mr. !quote's circular states that
Welch bar iron is dull ol sale. In rails a large purchase has
been 112.1100 by the Linden and North We•dern Railway
Company, at rates which have not transpired. Stutf.irdsliiro
iron—But little doing. Scotch pig iron—No. 1, Americtut
'mutt's, free on board in Glasgow, makers' undertakings,
may be quoted at 40s. No. 1, ordinary brands, makers'
undertakings, free un hoard at als. 3d. Mixed numbers,
makers' obligations, free on board, at 395. ; and No. 3,
3ss. 9d. Swedish iron—Nut any sales have becu reported,
some line assortments suitable for India are in the market.
Swedish steel— Not any transactions have transpired.
Copper continues in good demand. British tin—lt wag
generally expected, in the early part of the week, that the
smelters would advance the price, owing to the great de-
mand for reined; but probably the absence of an export
demand for eimmon, the large stocks in the foreign ports,
and the late unproductive sales, may have influenced them
to delay it fur the present. Foreign tin—Buyers of Banat
at SW.; sellers at Sll. Spelter his a downward tendency.
A parcel of dO tons has been daily iu the market lately, the
most that has been offered is Ili. per ton, and the stock is
on the increase. Lead is in better demand, there is more
enquiry for thi; article for America. Tin plaU,s arc dull of
sale, and prices may be quoted Gd. per box in favour of the
buyer.
