counties, West Virginia, fine light wool Is
held at zoe. In Guernsey and Tuscarawas
counties, Ohio, large business can be done
at Csc; not so fine as Harrison county, but
generally in Ueig good condition. l hardly
think wool will move very rapidly here; II
it does it must 20 at the farmers prices.
The supply east is very fair for this season
of the year, and is selling far below prices
asked by wool growers here, and until that
is cleaned out, we cannot expect the WOOL
to move very rapidly here unless at lower
prices than Harrison county farmers name.

OF the New York market The Economist
reports: There have been more inquiries
for wool this week than for some weeks
past, and though prices cannot be sald 10
have advanced, dealers manifest less anX-

tremely low, and there is little in the hands
of dealers, const quently the, latter are not
anxious to press sales, particularly III view
of the healthy condition OF the market 1or
woolens, and the bright prospects we have
for good tall trade. The opening OF the
Southern States to Northern trade will be
a great advantage to woolen manufactur-
ers: and the high price of gold prevents
foreign goods from being sold low, Whcn,

In Boston The ShippiRg List reports that
the market for wool in that city renamed,
during last week, about the same as the
week previous, with good demand from
manufacturers, and stocks sold up closer
than usual at this season of the year. " IL
seems to u.s." says that paper, " that prices
have now touched about the lowest point
they are likely to see for the present. Our
manufacturers must continue to purchase
or stop their machinery, and as the STOCKS
on the seaboard are now sold up close, thelr
attention must be turned to the new clip
at an early day. Already agents are In
all the leading wool growing States, and
from Maine to Wisconsin are freely Of

not disposed to sell except at high prices
