Wool.

From the Economist we learn that
there has been more inquiry for WOO
the past week than for some weeks pest
and a more speculative spirit than fol
some time Medium woods are again in
better request, and extras are more firm
ly held, with very confident feeling as
regards Y and X picklock; of the latter
little rs to be found. Super pulled woods
are not doing SO well as ihey have been,
from the fact that almost everything
has been crowded into them, low extra,
No. /, and shirtings, not only stopping
their SALE, but reducing the price. Good
supers, however, sell freely and at good
figures.
On a review of business connected with
wool and woolens, We think there is
good reason for looking favorable at the
future. -
In 1866 We were agitating the tariff
question, and in anticipation of it's pas
sage large importations of wool and wool
ems we're the result; but the tariff did
not pass, and in the winter of 1866 and
1857 it was again agitated, and in March
of 1867 it passed; then the country was
full of foreign wool, of foreign goods, of
the accumulation of our own manufac-
tories, and government owned large
Ss1Nns vi ciOluliiS anu dloC ClOtii-tueSe
they put upon the market and broke
down prices; but new the government
stock has been worked off, and these
large importations are sold out, and the
accumulations of our own manufactures
are also cleared out, and we begin new
year with comparatively clean sheet
so far as wOolens are concerned
The very heavy importations of wool
of 1865 are all about worked off, with
very little wool In the country to fall
back upon. We do not see why wool,
at present prices, is not the best property
at the present time for an investment,
and we think those parties who are now
laying III stocks are acting very wisely,
Tor we cannot see what is TO prevent an
advance OF wool. We do not think the
plea that manufacturers are well stocked
is valid one. Nor do we think those
farmers are acting wisely who are selling
off their sheep at IA inonstrolis low price,
or slaughtsring them for their pelts and
taHow. We think it would be well for
them To remember the old adage of
waste not, want not.n We think that
before another year, they will regret the
course they have pursued, and as wool,
before an other year, will be very scarce
indeed. they, by their course, may COM
pei change in the tariff for the purpose
of supplying that deficiency, caused by
injudicious slaughter of their sheep. If
farmers will be reckless, and sow to the
wind simply because things do not ex-
actly suit them, they must not be. sur

How many know that there is pIanr
growing and flourishing ito any extent
/ in Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, Flor
ida, Alabama, yielding fiber so textile
yet so beautiful withal. that it can be
treated to rival silk. and to supersede the
finest cotton?
|. Yes soitis. Growing in the ferenamed
States aud exporting "slilyn into Eu-
rope is this splendid product, ramie OF
China grass. 1--WE think (our largest
consumer says addressing the writer
this article will occupy very important
place in the exports of America, pro-
vided it is got up in a proper way. We
are at present using a large quantity
weekly" -:-.-4e,
Now. what is it-what is it like-how
is it to be got upin a proper way"-
what is its value, and what its appliea-
ton? / will reply to each ofthese queries
in their order, subject to correction
from those better informed
Firstly-Ramie or China Grass is
hotanieally named 'Boehmiyia5 Tena-
lcessinia" of the order "Urtfcacia," so
that no one need-aistakeSit on inquiry.
Secondfy-Itis neither unlike jute or
hemp, but with bolder, crisper, yet,
more pliable fiber.
Thirdly-To be got up in proper way
q speak of the raw materially, it should
be dried, when the green becomes
white.
Foufthly-The value in the green
state is s55ito e40s per ton of 2,240 lbs
white, $50 per ton-dressed for mixing
with cotton and silk, ESQ to $4,000 per
tom - - TwFr7
Fifthly-Application. Any iAmeri-
cans who have visited this side the last
year or two, may have seen our ladies
wearing for morning and walking dresses
what might appear To be splendid
French lavender silkl American ladies,
however, would not fail to observe that
though beautiful to the eye, it lacked
the inherent value of silk to the touch.
though superior in every way to cotton.
Did any one of these American visitors
know that this silk-iikeE material owed
its base to their own <seil-that it was
chiefly made from Ramie or China grass
and is no other in Europe than the
initiated, and so called japanese silk?''
n Suficsent then has been written to
defn'mstrate that here is an enormous
source of fcOmmerce open to the United
States--that in production and process
the thing is a veritable 1act-that grow
ing wild on the plains of the Southern
States is fiber, which, from fruit to
sfruition, is of the magnificent value of
es5 TO e300 per ton! More again.
