[Within the last few years the importation of wool intothe Zollverein exceeded the general exports of that ma-terial from it; but under this difference of circumstances,that whilst “common” and “middling” sorts of woolof low prices are imported from Austria, Poland, Russia ,and Turkey, the Zollverein exports an immense quantityof wools of the finest quality from Saxony, Silesia , theMarks, and Prussia (for the manufacture of the bestcloths and fabrics), to Great Britain, Belgium, and France .Stolpen, Lohmen, Klipphausen, and Nischwitz in Saxony ,Panten, Borutin, Ohi^elitx in Silesia , Frankenfelde, andMoglin in the Marks—all these places have acquiredfor their wools in Europe a reputation. The Zollverein specimens in this department of production, many ofwhich appear also in the English and other departmentsof the Exhibition, will meet with much attention.]

[The exports of the various kinds of gram, fibre andseed, flour, and other mill-ground stuffs from the ZollvereinStates, exceed the imports by a quantity equivalent in valueto 18 millions of thalers, and those of wood by 3 millionsof thalers yearly. Great Britain is the principal purchaserof these products of rural agriculture and forest cultiva-tion. For her flax and her tow, likewise, Germany findsa market in England. Potatoes are not exported as such;but the principal consumption of this esculent takes placein distillation for the making of brandy. It is an error toimagine primary and important agricultural and horti-cultural products ill adapted for the purposes of a publicexhibition. Various kinds of gram, of plants and seeds,are well entitled to attention by reason of tlieir novelty, ofthe interest practically attaching to them, or of their utility,such as different species of peeled barley, flour, and batchmade from them; sago, maccaroni, and vermicelli; dyeingarticles, as wood, accompanied by dyed materials to showthe effect produced; flax, hemp, tow, wool, .and otherproducts manufactured into linens, cordage, lxurdle-work,paper, wadding, coverlets, baskets, hats, and mats. Allthese so far as they possess a character of commercialimportance, have been considered worthy of exhibition inthe Zollverein .]
