Extract of a letter, dated Frankfort, Sept. 21 :
—" Very disagreeable intelligence has been received here
respecting the state of the wool and cloth trade iu Eng-
land. According to this information, the German wool,
which has within these few months been shipped as con-
signments to England, may he expected soon to come bark
to the continent. We entertain, however, no fear that the
German wool merchants, as proprietors, will be injured
by this circumstance, for previous experience has made
them extremely cautious in the choice of their commission
agents, and we do not hear that any of them are involved
in the catastrophe. But the crisis may be expected to
have a ome influence on the price of the article with us,
since, where it has been sent, that price has been so fluc-
tuating and unfixed, that it is impossible to find any ap-
proximating rule for estimating it. It is likewise to be
expected, that in consequence of the distress of the English
cloth manufacturers, the continent will be overrun with
their goods, especially as the English are extremely sus-
ceptible of that sort of panic alarm, which, at the com-
mencement of critical relations, makes goods be thrown
away. Foreigners will avail themselves of these circum-
stances; and as, by the command of cash, they can buy
cheap in England, we shall consequently be able to pur-
chase, in the great markets for British merchandise in
Germany, English cloth at so low a rate, that notwith-
standing the inferior quality of the manufacture, it still
will appear a good bargaia."Nm. German
