Ocr Woco Crop. On of the mot singular j phenomena connected with our hutory, i the

dttie fluctuation that ever take pl.tc- in our tim- : h-r niarket. Wool brings but little more per ' ord now than it did twenty year ao, and vet the quantity annaailv consumed by our cook- ! stove?, ship-carpenters, charcoal-burners and other Hrt'sins, is awful to think of. How a crop tii.it is nevr renewed stnd this contiau i! druiaaje, with little or no etTect on its price, puzzles j u to account for. In our opinion, nothing shows ' the immense resources of our glorious country i more than this simple, undeniable and well-know n act. When we take into consideration that the oak timber required for one single ocean steatn-r . . , : ot the nest wooded land in the country, some idea ; would stnr as oare. as ir.s u ree.s. ia iiilv acres mav be formed of the quantity of land run over by the axe of the ship carpenter alone. To supply the saip-vards of N-w York r-p;.res the stripping of five thousand acres of timber land annually a supply that seems almost impossible tfiat even the model republic should be e;ual to for a much longer period ; and yet slates aud pencils inform us that this immense fUpply can be continued without any sensible addition to the price, or any apparent diminution or our barest lands. This fact will bo more readily admitted when we stale that the present supply of ship timber is principally derived from the States of i'l rida, New Jersey, Fennsylvania and N. York the oak of these States being far preferable to that growing farther North, the latter being more spongy and porous.
