About two months > I gave an order to the Mosgiel and iapoi Woollen Factories for twelve ces of cloth, each containing about 40 •ds, and up to the 23rd insb., have only ;eived from the Mosgicl two pieces m the Kaiapoi three pieces, the in avers of these factories having m■med me that it would be from six weeks two months before I could receive the lance of the order ; and, further, that to sure delivery of spring goods, I should ve to order the same six months beforend, owing to iho fact that, although irking night and day, they were not Ic to keep pace with the demand. I ve no doubt that there is room for vcral more woollen factories in the lony, and I shall (should your factory ake a good article, which I have no doubt m will) have much pleasure in ordering iods of your make.—l am, &c., Frbdk.
