WOOL AND WORSTED.—Batrironn, Mance 12.—
There is still a good feeling pervading the wool market.
A fair inquiry has been made for wool, and many transee-
time are the result. The prices of last week are fully
maintained, and, in some soiree aorta, including Northam-
beriand, Stafford, and Down, the tendency is, if anything,
in an upward direction while all similar sorts meet a very
ready demand. Still there are some who have little con-
fidence that the improvement can be long maintained, and
they consequently operate with great caution. Good Lin-
coln hogs fetch le. 6d. per lb., and wethera Is. 3d, to
to le. :ltd. Breadstuff' are too dear, it is thought, for a
brisk trade to be possible this side of harvest, and the
future alter that event will be regulated by the result. In
warded yarns a steady business ha' been done by export
merehanta Stocks have Utterly been considerably re-
duced, and more business is now doing both for home and
continental account, partly for consumption and part y
speculative. Spinners, who are generally pretty well em-
ployed, still adhere with &maim to a higher range of
prices, although in many eases the result is a cur-
tailment of business to some extent. If late
rates could be accepted, a good business
might be done, but with the upward ten-
dopey in wool this is not possible. The spinner is still at
adi advantage, because the higher rates sought are not
commensurate with the higher prices demanded for wool.
There is rather more basilicas oleo doing in pieces. Both
continental and home merchant@ have placed orders in
plain and fancy goods. The American merchants, how-
ever, are doing little or nothing, and while this is the case
the Meanest must be much below an average. With the
higher rates of wool and cotton warps, the manufacturer
is compelled firmly to adhere to higher quotations, which
are in many eases only reluctantly yielded. A concession
would, no doubt, have the result of effecting more

of which the arrivals are very large, gave way fully ls. per
