WOOL MARKETS. 



LONDON, MuND.vv, Aug. 23. — There is a moderate 

 business doiiij; in fine homegrown wools, aid prices are fully 

 supported. In long wooh very little is passing ; neyerthckss 

 the quotations rule about stationary. The supply on olfer is 

 seasonably large ; but we uuderstsnd that large bnjcrs aie 

 shortly expected from Belgium.

BRADFORD WOOL MARKET, (Thursday hst.) — 

 VVtol : Tlierc is a fair amount of business pasbiug, and prices 

 for bright-haired lots are on tlie ascendant. Wools more 

 adajtel for coburgs and soft goods do not command such 

 good Sale. Neils and brokcs are inquired for, but prices con- 

 tinue very low. Yarns : Spinners continue well engaged to 

 otdiT, and manufacturers complain of the deficient dcliyeries, 

 several spinners having more contracts to meet than their prc- 

 duoiion is equal to. Cotton yarns continue in fair demand. 

 Pieces : Tliere is a fair attendance of merchants, who, haviug 

 most of them cleared out the b\ilk of their stocks, are endea- 

 vouring to replace them on as favourable terms as they are 

 able. Manufacturers continue well engaged to order, and 

 better prices are realized. — liradford Observer. 



LEEDS (English and Foreign) WOOL MARKETS, 

 Aug. 20. — The demand for English combing wool is not 

 diminished, but piices are not materially altered, though in 

 some instauces quoted higher. lu colonial wool there is a 

 steady demand, and prices are firm. There is a good demand 

 for low foreign wool, but prices are net higher. 



LIVERPOOL WOOL MARKET, Aug. 21. 

 English. — For all kinds there is an unabatedly good de- 

 mand, particularly for those of bright-haired descriptions ; and 

 sales can be very freely made at late quotations, but higher 

 rates being demauded, the transactions have not been to the 

 extent that otherwise would have been the case.
