Wool.-We learn that Messrs Wells & Dickinson
of Steubenville, Ohio, sold to one Of our maruact-
res last week. 10000 pounds OF Wool which had been
transported down the Ohio and New York Canals
to Albany and thence to this city We regret to learn
that this article has experienced great decline in
price since last shcaring time. owing to want of coms
petition among the purchasers. 1t was believed by
many that the Tariff law of fast winter would give
some additional protection 70 the manufacturers, so
that all the mills would 90 into active operation, and
that there would be greater Demand and consequent
ly that higher prices would be given for Wool Many
OF the WooldeaIers i'll this city acted this belief,
and have now large stock of Wool on hand, which
they purchased at shearing time on speculation.
We lrc Informed by one Of the appraisers in this
port, who it is generally known very accurate in his
minimum points do not amount to so much under the
present law, they did under the former one, by
and half per cent. This arises, we are told, from
the construction given to the law by the Secretary Of
the Treasury, which excludes the lists and headings
from measurement, and abandons the principle which
has hitherto been observed of adding 10 per cent to
the invoice value, and reckoning duty the charges
The sub ect is one in which the wool growers have
at least as deep interest the manufacturers, and
it remains to be whether they will insist upon hay
ing the Bill Of last Session amended strike out
the dollar minimum, and thereby securing to them
the benefits which promised; and to which they
are justly entitled.
