The business transactions of TO-DAY, as detailed
below, contribute another_ item to our progression in

prosperity ; and we may add, as et
we have seldom seen a better atter
'Chanfre.

An impression generally prevails at the present time
that there is room for considerable further improvement
in the IRON trade. The Americans continue to operate
on a large scale. and the intelligence from Ind
cheering. Continental purchasers come forward, and the
accounts from Birmingham and the manufacturing dis-
tricts are most satisfactory. Since the publication last
week of an article in this paper on this branch of trade,
the Staffordshire ironmasters have advanced thtir prices
ton, and a similar advance is expected in Welsh
Bar Iron,—exactly answering our prediction. TO-DAY
there has been a good inquiry, and a great disposition has
been shewn to get a stock, speculators operating more
pqrticularly in Scotch Pig Iron, for which prices are very
firm at 53/ @ 54/ mixed numbers, 54/ @ 55/ No. 1, and
55/ @ 57/ Gartsherrie, f.o.b. at Glasgow. Our quota-

The large bull account in the BLARE market, which we cn r
