public sales of colonial wool were commenced on Thursday, and^
according to present arrangements, will not be concluded until the 4th
of July next. The arrivals are very large, the total supply to be
brought forward being as much as 210,000 bales, of which about 38,000
bales are from the Cape of Good Hope.
Notwithstanding the large
supply in the market, both home and foreign buyers have purchased
freely, and, in some instances, prices exhibit a slight improvement. The
tone of the wool trade is clearly very healthy, and should the harvest
be favorable we may safely expect a better price for wool as we
approach the close of the year. The particulars of our imports and
exports of wool snd woolen goods from and to all quarters are sub.

From
Algeria the following information has been received respecting
:—The barley is everywhere nearly ripe and ready to be cut;
the harvest will begin in the first fortnight of this month, and the yield
promises to be excellent; the grain is full, and will weigh at least 60
kilogrammes the hectolitre. The wheat, which was rather backward
has improved in appearance since the last rains ; the roots appear very
vigorous. The flax blossoms are already formed, ar.d the stalks bend
un ier the weight; beans also look well.
Lentils and peas seem likely
to largely remunerate their cultivators.
The maize plants are in a
flourishing state. The vine has everywhere been subjected to a preven¬
tive sulphuration, and promises an abundant yield.
The directors of the Bank of England have again refrained from
making an alteration in their rates of discount, and hence the minimum
quotation remains at 2 per cent. Although in the open market bills
are not discounted below 2
per cent, yet, in the present position of
affairs, there seems to bo uo prospect that the Bank rates will be raised
to a higher point, as is pretty clearly indicated by the Bank returns of
the present week. There is, indeed, a. slight decrease in the supply of
bullion held by the establishment, but then the reserve of notes shows an
important increase. While in the other securities a very trifling increase
has taken place.
Many circumstances, moreover, seem to point to a
continuance of a 2 per cent rate of discount. No one entertains the
opinion that money will become dear, but there are some that hold that
the discount market will be a rising market.
For some time past there
have been indications of dearer (not dear) money, but the tendency to
higher rates was only a tendency, and has not yet developed itself into
a
reality. At the present moment there is nothing to justify a higher
rate of money.
Trade remains quiet; there appear to be no signs cf
any rapid extension of business, the agricultural prospect is favor¬
able, and there are very large supplies of gold and silver
on
passage to this country from the United States, Mexico and Australia
In addition to those circumstances the Continental exchanges rule more
favorable to this country, and the export demand for gold has almost
ceased. It seems next to certain that the supplies of the precious
metals will accumulate on this side, and that, as there is much caution
in business, and no disposition on the part of the public to facilitate the
introduction of new loans or of public companies, there will be no
justification for a rise in the Bank minimum for some weeks to come.

We come n w to the railroad system, whi~h has progressed in
Minnesota, for a new State very rapidly. The principal' railroads are
aided very largely by the Government. In 1857, Congress made a
land grant of four and a half millions to Minnesota for railroad purposes.
In 1864, an additional grant was made. These acts gave ten sections
6,400 acres of land for each mile of roal; to be built under the law,
for the great projected lines. The principal lines are ;
1. First Division of the St. Paul and Pacific Railroad.—This goes
from St Paul via St. Anthony and Minneapolis, to a point on the
Western boundary of the State, at or near Big Stone Lake. The
main line is 200 miles sn length, of which twenty five miles are in
operation, fi teen graded, and the company expect to complete, in all,
seventy miles this year. Connected with this line is a bridge over the
Mississippi, above the Falls of St. Anthony. This load ha9 a branch
from St. Anth ny to Watab, of which sixty five miles, to Sauk Rapids
is in operation.
2. A Line from Watab (connecting with the former) via Crow Winy

GROCERIES.
Friday Evening, May 29, 1868.
The
only branch of trade in which much activity has been
shown is that of Tea, and in this department there has been
developed, latterly, quite a brisk business. The causes would
*eem to be
chiefly two—first, the very light transactions which
have taken place for a number of weeks previously, and, second¬
ly, the apprehension that the supply of this year will be less
than was anticipated. Coffee has been decidedly dull, and has
declined a fraction on Rio and some other grades.
Sugar
towards the close, became active and firm.
Molasses has
been without any feature of unusual interest.
Imports of the week have been considerable, including two
cargoes of black taa from Foochow, six cargoes of Rio coffee,
four at New York and two at Baltimore, and
unusually heavy
receipts of sugar and molasses.
Stocks, however, have not
increased materially, except of Rio coffee, the stock of that
sort in the country being reported
some 23,403 bags larger
than last week.
Full details of the imports at the several
ports for the week and since Jan. 1 are given below under the
respective heads. The totals are as follows:

Company: The Legislature of Iowa, by an act
passed unanimously, has postponed the election till Jane, 1869, and the State
of Iowa, by its Attorney Geneial, has obtained and served upon the officers and
directors of the company an injunction which forbids 'he directors and stock¬
holders of th-i company, and their agents, attorneys, servants and counselors,
and all persons acting by or under them from cal ing any meeting for an elec¬
tion or taking any action in such a meeting prior to June, 1869.
No election or stockholders’ meeting of tills company can, therefore, cr will
be h' Id in June next. Any attempt to hold such election or meeting in pursu¬
ance of the irregular and irresponsible notification w hich has appeared, would
be a violation of law and a breach of the injunction of the Court.
