TaE Wool OF TExAs.-The following is from the
Houston Telegraph:
The wool crop of Texas is nearer two millions Of
pounds and the production of the Confederate States
Is estimated by wool buyers not over 600 Of
pounds, while the consumption of the factories in
Che States will not reach that amount by three quar-
tiers Of 4 million of pounds. There is now unsOld in
Texas near q million pounds of wool and the next
clip is only four months of, which viii give, at a
low estimate, 1900 600 pounds for market. The
error is in relying on the census report Of 1860 for
the number Of sheep, when, as is well known, not
half the census takers attended to their duty any
thing ike a reliable manner. When correct een~
sus Of the sheep in this State shall be taken it viii
be found that they never numbered much less than
500 GOO since the 18th Of January, 1861, and that
the next years clip will be taken from oyer mill
ion. We state these facts that wool holders may
see it is for their interest to sell while the present
good prices prevail. The chances are against much
Of a rise in the price for The present.
