WOOL MARKETS. 



ENGLISH WOOL MARKETS. 

 LONDON, Monday, Feb. 27. — There is very little inquiry 

 for any kind of home-grown Wool ; nevertheless, holders, 

 almost generally, are firm iu their demands. To effect sales, 

 however, lower rates must be submitted. The result of the 

 approacliing sales of colonial Wool, which will commence on 

 Thursday next, is looked forward to with much interest.

BRADFORD WOOL MARKET, (Thursday last.)— 

 More lookers during the past week, but the actual sales 

 made are meagre in the extreme. Prices asked are about 

 the same as last week ; but more anxiety is evinced by the 

 staplers to realize, before the droughty weather begins to 

 take effect. In noils and shorts the demand keeps very 

 steady, aud prices are without change. — Bradford Observer 



LIVERPOOL, Saturday, Feb. 27. 

 Scotch. — There still continues to be a limited demand for 

 laid Highland Wool, the best qualities being the only kind 

 saleable at late rates. White Highlaecl is light ia stock, ancl 



inquired for. Cheviota of a good class are still in demand, 

 and command very full rates ; inferior is neglected.

BRESLAU WOOL REPORT, Feb. 23. — Our trade 

 continues very brisk, with a great demand for all descriptions. 

 Fine qualities are chiefly required, but already very scarce. 

 Buyers, therefore, were obliged to satisfy themselves with the 

 middling aud lower kinds, from which they acquired about 

 2,500 cwts,, the greater part being Russian and Polish fleeces, 

 at from 65 to 75 thalers. A lot of fine Galliciaa one-shear 

 realized 84 tha'ers, Silesiau middle wool 85 thalers, and slipes 

 68 to 72 thalers per cwt. Buyers were Saxon combers, 

 clothiers, and staplers, as well as many Austrian firms, who, 

 iu spite of the disadvantageous stand of the Austrian money, 

 have been very eagerly purchasing. Fresh arrivals amounted 

 to 1,800 cwts., and the total of our provisions is, at present, 

 not beyond 13,000 cwt. Many contracts have been lately 

 made for the future clipping, at an advance of 4 to 6 percent, 

 above last June fair quotations. — Gunsburg, Wool-broker.
