WOOL MARKETS. 

 ENGLISH WOOL MARKET. 

 ■ LONDON, May 24. — There is a slight improvement ia the 

 demand for fine Enghah wools, at fully last week's quotations, 

 although several parcels are announced for public sale in Lon- 

 don after the close of the colonial series. In prices, no quotable 

 change has taken place. Low qualities of wool are a dull 

 inquiry ; nevertheless, holders generally are firm, and prices 

 are well supported.

LEEDS (English and Foreign) WOOL MARKTE, 

 May 21.— a fair demand, to supply immediate wants, for 

 most kinds of English and combing wools, and prices are firm 

 at late quotations. For colonial clothing wool the demand is 

 not brisk, and the manufacturers in the district generally com- 

 plain of the duluess of trade. 



YORK WOOL MARKET, May 20.— To-day, the second 

 market for the new clip of this year (the late rainy weather 

 being unpropitious for sheep-shearing) we had but a small 

 supply of wo j1, say about 10 or 15 sheets of new clip, and the 

 'same of old, with about half-a-dozen buyers. Several lots re- 

 main unsold, and the prices cf those sold may be fairly q,uoted 

 at from lOd. to lid., and 12d. per lb., as per qua'ity. One 

 lot, in splendid condition, realized a price over those 

 quotations, but the exact figure was not stated. — Yorkshire 

 Gazette. 



LIVERPOOL WOOL MARKET, May 22. 



Scotch. — There is scarcely an average demand for Laid 

 Highland Wool yet, and prices are somewhat irregular. White 

 Highland is only in limited demand. There has been little 

 doing in either Cheviot or crossed this week.

Foreign. — The improved feeling evinced in the daily pro- 

 gress of the public sales in London, imparts confidence in the 

 trade generally, and we have more doing by private contract 

 at steady prices. 



BRESLAU, May 20.— Since our last report busicess haa 

 been still flatter, and prices pursuiuj; their downward tendency. 

 Yet neither a further decrease nor the near approach of the 

 new clipping could attract a greater number of purchasers. 

 Manufacturers were persisting in their reserve, and speculators 

 directing their attention to Jresh wools. Transactions did not 

 surpass the amount of 2,500 cwts., consisting chiefly of 

 Russian wools, ordinarily washed and scoured, as well as of 

 fine Silesian one-shear, skins in bundles, and slipes. The fol- 

 lowing prices have been obtained : — For Russian wools, ordi- 

 narily washed, at from 52 to 62 thalers : ditto, scoured, 80 to 

 86 thalers ; fine Silesian fleeces, 87 to 91 thslers ; fine locks, 

 62 to 65 thalers ; Silesian slipes, 58 to 65 thalers per cwt. 

 The chief purchasera were the ZoUverein combers and clothiers, 

 as well as home commissioners, who were acting for French 

 and English account. More vivacity has been exhibited in 

 transactions on the sheep's backs, and more than 3,000 cwts. 

 of all descriptions have been in this manner contracted, at a 

 reduction of 10 to 15 per cent, compared with last year's June 

 fair quotations. — Gunsburg, Wool-broker.
