Wool Markets.

New YoRK,-The Stamping List says
the market for Foreign is very quiet,
though there is little more inquiry from
Manufacturers; the transactions, however,
are very light the views OF holders Tor
the most part still being above those of
buyers. lIuenOs Ayres Sheep Skins have
been in fair demand, and some sales have
been made, but mostly in small
lots. The sales are 1000 lbs. Cape ut

Ing the prices now demanded for Wool.
The transactions Of the week have been
$4,000 lbs. Domestic, and 100000 lbs.
FOreign-in all, 10000 lbs. The prin.
cipal movements, rs noticed above, have
been in Domestic Wool. Some lots Of
new Flccccs have been received from
Ohio, and holders OF old arc anxious to
close up all now on hand, before my con.
siderable lots OF new arG received. The
price OF FlCCCGs continue TO rule from Is
to % cts, rs TO condition and quality
Some lots have been sold for an advance
on the latter rate, but the condition OF the
Wool was very superior, and is not u lair
criterion Of the market. A round lot
Of Wisconsin Fleece, the same grade of
Wool that was selling ut 70l7Ot cts. for
some weeks past, was offered at GU;
but not over Is could be obtained.
For this Wool so cents was offered
and refused some time ago, when our
market was excited and advancing. Sew.
erAl lots oil new Ohio FleGces, in good
condition and Of desirable quality, sold at
20 cts, rs it run. Any Fleece Wool, to
command over 20 cts, must be very choice
as Manufacturers appear to be very in.
different about purchasing, especially
when they have so largca stock of fine
Foreign Woods to fall back upon. Comb.
ing Wool is in better demand than any
other description, and round lots OF Ken.
lucky have been placed at G5a1O cts,
which FULLY sustain the opening prices |
for this description. The movement in
Pulled Wool has been very light, and in
super scarcely anything has been done.
Very good y Pulled has been sold at 1OA
721 cts, and 7jaSO are extreme prices.
There has been large movement in new
Spring California Wool, but the exact
price is not publiC. Our receipts so far
Of California Spring have been Of very
superior quality, clean and light, but II |
would be difficult to place the most dc.
sirable lots at over jjajS cts. Large sup.
plies OF this wool are near at hand, and
our mar ket will soon be well stocked. The
transactions in Foreign have been quite
unlmportant, but in prices there is no
change to notice
