The Wool Market,

In the wool market, with gold tending up
there has been little better feeling during the
past week, and we also note slight improve.
ment in trade. The demand, however, Is quite
moderate for the season, and likely 10 con.
tinue so until the goods trade can be established
upon a basis which shall warrant manufactur.
ers In starting up their machinery and resum
ing the partially suspended production. But
though the feeling Is somewhat stronger. there
is no actual improvement in prices OF any
grade Of domestic wool. Holders. at this
stage of the season, are anxious TO sell, and on
odd and undesirable lots liberal concessions
continue 20 be made in order to close out. In
fact the only descriptions Of wool that are not
pressed, and on which sellers have an adyan
tage, are combing fleece and light Eastern
super pulled. These are wanted and can only
be obtained in very small lots. The supply of
all grade of fleece is very limiied, but quite
sufficient 10 bridge over to the new clip at the
present slow rate OF absorption. Hence hold
ers meet the market quite freely and do often
let customer slip through their fingers when
they are able to furnish styles of wool which
he wants. Nor is there any great effort being
made TO force prices to higher range in view
of the near approach of the next wool season.
1t is manilestly for the interest of dealers. a.
well as of manufacturers, that there should ly,
no excitement in the wool market during the
next two months. AS matters now stand it is
not merely probable but certain, that the new
clip will open at very low prices and, in
view of the losses suffered by wool BUYERS
during the last three or four years, il is very
evident that it will not be bought up in a
hurry. The present condition and prospects
of trade will not warrant the payment of
prices now asked in the country. Growers
are anticipating lower rates for their product
in July, and hence they are clearing out all
their old woods as fast as possible
Sales of domestic for the week have been f,ir and
foot up about SIS 900 lbs, at range of f552Hc for
fceces and 32S15Oc for the various ugadcs of pulled

TIE PRATT CAsE.-This rather notorious
case, has, we learn, just taken a new phase.
The Supreme Court has reversed the decision
of the Common Pleas, and granted the plea for
a new trial. This, it is further added, admits
PRATT to ball. and the law to its course, and
the opposing litigants TO delay at least, il
not to ultimate disappointment and discom-
fituge. Those, therefore, who have been hold
ing their breath in their eagerness for the in
generation and punishment of the prisoner,
may now indulge in deep and refreshing res
piration, and wait for something to turn up-to
wit: n0lle. Sherman & Hall have spent too
much anxious thought and labor upon this
case TO allow themselves to be circumvenaed
None, we presume, understand that better, or
feel it more keenly than the Prosecuting At
torney.

So THE RED River trouble is settled-if the
Canadian Government docs not tdeceive itself
by the concession of about all the insurgents
demand in the organization of the proposed
new Province of Manitoba. We doubt, how
ever, the effeetualness of settlement arrived
at by backing down after so much make-be-
lieve of preparation to apply the terrors ofthc
sword. Riels rebels are more likely now than
otherwise, we should say, TO add something
new to their demands, or taking fresh courage
from their success so far, take bold stand for
independence, and nothing short

INT. REy.-The Ashtabula Telegraph says
that it is probable that Mahoning county will
soon be consolidated into one revenue divis-
jon.
The above we extract for the purpose of
saying that It would not be in any way COM
plimentary to state that our county is entitled
to that honor. The immense business requir-
ed to be done by that department of our tax
gathering officials, of necessity would seem to
compel their presence in our county continual

criminate between the terms division and

The Mcfarland case deyelopes o strange
kind of marital principle. 1t is a new school
OF marital philosophy. Mrs. Sage, the mother
OF Mrs. Mcfarland Richardson, testifies that
she knew Richardson was going to marry her
daughter two years since, and she thought her
daughter acted perfectly right in every partic-
ular. Which, being analysed, means that it is
perfectly right for married woman, in antici-
patton of getting divorce, to engage herself
TO another man. That is a pretty doctrine
for mother to teach daughter. Decency,
at least, should prevent the avowal of any such
arrangement. That there was a remarkable
"looseness" about the matter cannot be denied
Richardson told the husband that the wife was
his QRichardson's) property virtually, and
would be so legally, whenever the slight mari
tai lien Mcfarland had upon her, could be re-
moved by an Indiana divorce, and the mother
testifies that she knew all about the engage
meut of her daughter when she still was the
wife of Mcfarland, It is pretty bad mess,
aud Greeley, BeecbeT Frothingbam, Tilton,
Mrs. Calhoun Runkle, and Mrs. Sage cannot
explain the transaction so as TO satisfy those
who believe the relation of husband and wife
is sacred one, and who hold that no contract
