GLASGOW PIG IRON 1 RADE.—TUEiDAY, MARCH 31.
—We have to denote a decline of a shilling or two in prices since our
last ; but as purchases are wholly confined to orders for irnmedia,e

very limited, it is considered that prices cannot recede much farther.
It is believed that ere long an advance may be looked for, .bc'uld
