LONG AND FINE WooLs-The late
extraordinary rise in the price of
coarse wool we had supposed was
mainly owing to the demand of our
government for blankets and clothing
for the soldiers. The following artio
Gle copied from the Mark Lane Exc
press suggests more permanent and
satisfactory reason for this singular
cbange:-
"An extraordinary change in fact
has taken place in the trade, by vir-
tue Of which the long and. the fine
short woods have changed places, the
former having advanced and the lat
ter receded in price, especially lambs
wool, which formerly was the most
valuable of any kind of native growth.
This description has fallen TO about IA
pence, or 2S cents per lb, while Lei,
cestershire teggs or hoggetts wool
from the same sheep will fetch, or has
fetched 2s. 3d., or 60 cents per lb, the
fleece weighing IA lb. The causes for
so strange an alteration in the wool
trade are various, but may be traced
in the introduction of the Alpac or
Lama wool from Peru. The length
and ineness of this material enabled
the manufacturer TO make kind Of
fsbric entirely new to the British
market, namoly, those light gOssamer
stuffs known as alpacas, so much
priced and worn by our fair country
women. The success of this materi'
al set the manufacturers to work to
attempt limitations of it from the long
woods of British growth. 1u this they
succeeded, especially since the inven'
ton of combing wool by machinery
about fourteen years ago, which great.
ly improved tho operation as We'll as
the uniformity of the material upon
which it was employed. By using this
machine, wool can now be combed
of two.and-a.half inches in length, but
it is the long Lsncolnshire, Yorkshire,
Romney Marsh, and Cotswolds that
have so much increased in value since
the introduction of Lama Alpaca wool
The facility for perfecting these woods
for the purpose of making limitations
of Alpaca fabrics, is one of the causes
of the advance for the enormous do
mand for such fabrics for foreign
countries with the supply limited tc
the growth of the United Kingdom
has rendered this far more scarce
than the short wool, of which the
amount from our colonies of Australia
and New Zealand is annually increas
ing.

practice Is in upper class dwellings.

So they began, and the miser crouehing

expecting in their childish faith to see some
miraculous manifestation, a humane feeling
stole over his heart; God sent some angel to
soften it. He had bought loaf at the viii

days, but the silence spoke louder to him
than the voices Of many waters. He opened
the door softly, threw in the loaf, and then
listened to the wild and eager cry of delight

The speakers generally congratulated the peo-

however, that the begging plea Of one so called

was altogether out Of place on such an occasion

throng there assembled-quite ms harshly any.

q style calculated to catch the breath Of popular
applause. The hope expressed by the Hon gen.
teman that JEFF. Davis would be hung high as

The Signal has given the idea nearly
correctly that Judge Avery expressed,
and has only said the honest truth in
a very mild way. On the other hand,
the Enterprise seeks to impart false
motives to Judge Avery, and treats
him as if an impostor or a stranger,
while he is acknowledge to be one
of the finest scholars, ablest lawyers,
and most perfect gentleman in the
State. The mean insinuations of the
Enterprise are wholly unworthy even a

TOO FAST.

Under the above heading tho Toron-
to Leader states that the municipal au-
thorities of Goderich, town in Can
ada West, have passed resolutions de-
claring the 4th of July public Hol-
liday, and that the Mayor has actual
ly endorsed the act by a proclamation
to that effect.
Well may our Canadian neighbors
ask-"whither are we driftingp"-
when the loyal subjects of her majes-
ty are guilty of such heresies as to
celebrate the American eagles birth
day! Why, this is even worse than
the Berlin celebration, and beats the
"Waterloo Dutchmen," who rejoiced
in Lees surrender, all to pieces. We
wonder that our friend of the Leader
can so philosophically discuss the out
rage as in the subjoined -
"The cause Of this action appears
to have been an invitation extended
to the Council by the people of Sagi-
nav, Mich, to visit them on the
Fourth and enjoy tho hospitality of
that town. The prospect of a free
feed seems to have made She city ia
theirs Of Goderich enthusiastic in their
celebration of independence day.
But they are little too fact. 1t will
be time enough to observe the Fourth
of July Us public holiday when we
are annexed which we would fain

OUR GoDERICH VISITORS.

We are glad that Mr.. JosLIN, of the
Enterprise, has become somewhat ac-
quainted with our Goderich neighbors,
that he appreciates their gentlemanly
characteristics will be seen from the
following article from his paper of
July 6:
Among the most gratifying incidents
of the Glorious Fourth I" was the
visit of the common council, firemen
and citizens of Goderich, @. W.
About nine o'clock the steamer Huron
came up, having crossed the lake and
assembled the river since two o'clock
the previous afternoon. The dock of
Messrs. Gooding & Hawkins was al
ready crowded with our council and
firemen, and citizens generally, to re-
ceive their expected guests. After a
brief welcoming speech by Mr.. Brown,
on the part of our committee Of ar
rangements, responded to by Mayor
Dstler, the delegation landed, the
council and citizens being escorted to
the Bancroft House, while the fremen,
Z Mon No. 1, as the special guests
of our Pioneer No. /, were escorted
to their engine house, and all provided
with refreshments. After attending
the celebration, the mayors, council
men and citizens of the two national
tiles again repaired to the Bancroft
House to enjoy well prepared dinner
and the socialities Of the occasion
the rain in the forenoon having de-
layed operations somewhat, making
the dinner hour later than was at first
designed, and somewhat abreviating
the usual ceremonies of toasts and
speeches. However, enough Of this
kind were brought forth to develop
the utmost good feeling on both sides.
The customary international toasts to
the President Of the United States
and to the Queen of England were
cordially responded to.
On the following morning, previous
to Their departure, another pleasant
reunion and interchange Of friendly
sentiments took place At the commit

tee room Of the Bancroft House, which
was continued until the party embark
ed on boz d the boat to return.
Our Goderich neighbors are certain
ly as good feeling, friendly and social
set Of gentlemen as the world affords,
and it does ones heart good to meet
with them. Th.ir reception and treat
ment here, We are happy to say, was
entirely satisfactory to them. 1t is to
be hoped the same cordial feeling will
ever prevail between the communities
Of Goderich and Saginaw, SO intimate
ly connected in commercial as well ms
social relations. And if the So
feeling exists in or becomes extern
to other parts o. the two coun.
there is no possible danger of
collision ever occurring, and CONNER
cial regulations and tariffs will be
arranged to the mutual interest and
satisfaction of all. Among the visitors
we noticed Mayor DETER, with Messrs.
Gibbons, Clifford, Horton, Booth, Nc
Kay, Cameron, Hays, and Smith, Of
the Common Council, Mr.. Cox, editor
of the Signal Messrs. Cummings, Cap
tain Union Fire Co., No. l, and Moore,

and Messrs. Moore, Rumball, Jordan,
Gardiner, Cameron, Sloan, Rhyness,
Reed, Jackson, Thompson, Rowett,
Carr, Shepherd, SMALL, and others, OF
the professional and business men OF
Goderich and vicinity.
The toasts, speeches, &C., on the
occasion of their departure, were some
what of an informal character, a mix
ture Of cordial friendship and fan.
