The demand for domestic Wool continues good and
the market is steady and firm fer all grades. Manu-
factulers purchase wanted and there is a confident
feeling that price have touched the lowest point tor
the present, but without any prospect of immedi
ate advance. Supplies coming forward quite
freely from the interior, the receipts having been
considerable for some weeks past considering the
lateness of the season. but the stock on the market
not large, although the assortment of all kinds is
good.
In New York, since our last report, quite a large
number of buyers have entered the market and their
purchases have been very gratifying to all concerned.
The supply having been reduced to an unusually
low point for the Dealers show less DISPOSE
ton to force Sales and the consequence is prices
all good grades much stronger than they recently
have been. Foreign clothing Woo continue quiet.
but prices remain as before.
In Philadelphia there has been a lively movement
in fine Woods, with some improvement in prices,
There is also good demand tor medium feeces at
full prices, and combing continues to sell freely The
supply OF manufactured goods is still in excess of the
demand and prices in many instances are very unre-
munerative, which deters the manufacturers from
purchasing beyond immediate wants.
