BRITISH WOOL MARKET. 

 LONDON, Monday, Feb. 21.— Since our last report, the 

 transactions in all kinds of English wool have been rather 

 limited, owing to the near approach of the public sales of 

 Colonial. In prices, however, we have no change to notice. 

 The supply of Wool on offer is limited ; aud the inquiry for 

 export purposes is very limited.

LIVERPOOL WOOL MARKET, Feb, 19. 

 English combing wools hare met with rather more inquiry, 

 which has partially arrested the decline, which may be quoted d 

 OJd. per lb. from the highest point ; and if confidence was 

 restored there would be an immediate reaction, stocks being 

 very low.
