In the wool market, with gold tending up tliere has been a little better feellng during tlie past week, and we also note a sllght Improvcment ín tfftcTe.

Nor is there any great cflbrt Ijcim; made to torco pricesto a hlgher range, in vierf of the near approach of the nêxt wool season. It Ia manlfestly for the interest of dealers, as well as of manufacturero, that diere should be. no exciteinent n the wool market d uring ihe next two months. Aa mattere now stand it is pot merel; probable but certaln, that the new clip wlll opeti at very low prlces ; and in view öfihé loases euöered y vrool tfuyera doring the last three or lour years, it is very evident that it wil) not be bought üp in a hurry.
