STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, Oct. 27.—1 n shipping yarns we have had a better market to-day, with a fair amount of business, at low prices. The prices ob tainable are 'miserably inadequate as compared with the cost of cotton. In some c tses it is said that spinners won]. 1 have required 2 1. per lb. more for cotton sold t)-day than their goods would rea lize to have left them free from loss. Yet - buyers are offering stiil lower prices, and spinners could' have done double the am )unt of business tran sacted if they cou'd hive met the demand on these terms. This branch of the market closes better than for some tine p Ist, in coasepence of the stocks which have been nave 1. Ia top yarns for the home trade spinners have demanded -id. per lb. extra to meet the advance on cotton, bat it has been given only to a moderate extent. Where buyers have immediate and pressing wants they have been obliged to give this advance, but they do not buy with alacrity, because there is no confidence in the movement in cotton which has led to the advance. In the cloth market the inactivity reported last week continued without abatement up to Sattay, with depressed prices. The large business in cotton on Saturday caused manufacturers to increase their prices, to cover the rise in the raw material, and to some ex tent-this strinulated the demand for cloth, but Mu. business resulting was not of importance as to amount. To-day we have again had an inactive and depressed market. The demand has been very languid, and the aggregate business effected is re ported to have been small. Buyers appear deter mined to restrict their operations within narrow limits, and have shown to-day but little disposition to pay the advanoe asked by spinners for yarn. In dividual instances of resort to short time increase, though there is no combined movement, and we learn that a large firm in Preston, one of the largest shirting-producing concerns in the district, have given notice of limiting their machinery to three days' production per week from next Monday. CARDIFF, 26th.—The steam coal trade is charac terised by a degree of dulness rather unusual at this period of the year, but this, to some extent, is owing to exceptional circumstances. Yet, at the same time, it must be admitted, that fresh orders do not come to hand so readidly as usual. For several weeks past merchants and shippers have had to. contend with the difficulty of a want.of tonnage suitable for the more distant ports, and unless a change speedily occurs in the number of arrivals, the clearances will continue to be below the average. The out put at the collieries in the district is more than suf ficient to meet the requirements of merchants and shippers, and a large number of loaded waggons are as a rule, on the sidings waiting the arrival of ton age, and the effect of this will soon be experienced at the collieries, as the hands will be put on short time. Shipments to the East continue below the average, while to South America some heavy car goes have been sent. There is an improvement gradually setting in in the house coal trade, the shipments coastwise showing a favourable increase during the past week. Operations at the ironwork s are being steadily carried on, and there is every prospect of the improvement referred to in previous reports being maintained. LEEDS, 27th.—The markets in the cloth-halls this morning have been of a moderate character, considering the season of the year. There was not a large attendance of buyers, but those presen t purchased a fair amount of goods in the aggregate. The demand for heavy fabrics was confined to small selections for present rather than prospec tive requirements, and little was done in ordinary blacks, whether superfine or union. The chief run was upon tweeds, but, as on Saturday last, a little slackness in the demand for that class of goods is observable, and buyers have little or no difficulty in obtaining what they want. A tolerably good sale was effected in meltons and claret and gray mix tures were the easiest to dispose of. A few samples of spring goods were made up, and the market ruled firm as to price. The flax trade is not very brisk, but prices of the raw material are firm, with an upward rather than a downward tendency. Yarns and threads are also firm in price. ROCHDALE, 26th.—Though winter is fast ap proaching there is no improvement to note in the general condition of the flannel. Indeed, some manufacturers, owing to the slackness, are begin ning to run short time. To-day's market was only thinly attended by buyers, and plain flannels were only in :poor request, but there was a little better demand for fancies. The Yorkshire goods and wool trades were' also flat, and little business was done. Prices, however, of flannels, Yorkshire goods, and wools are all firm. GENERAL 2IPCLELLAN'S LETTER. The following was General M'Clellan's letter to the great mass meeting assembled in his honour at New York on Monday night, the sth inst " New York, Oat. 3, 1868. "Douglas Taylor, Esq., chairman, &c.: My dear have the pleasure to acknowledge the receipt of your invitation to preside over the Democratic meeting of Monday next. I have long since de termined to abstain from further participation in political life, and therefore find myself compelled to decline the honour you proffer me. I should, how ever, be glad to attend. the meeting as a private citizen did not engagements of a domestic nature, rendered imperative by my long absence from the city, upon the day in question, prevent. I gladly avail myself of this opportunity to express my con tinued hearty sympathy with the Democratic cause, and my ardent wishes for the success of those consti tutional principles for which the recent war was undertaken by the North. Separated as I thus am from the distinguished soldier who has been chosen as the leader of our opponents, I know you will agree with mein the highest respect for the services he has rendered our country. But it is my convic tion that the measures of the party which has placed him in nomination are but continuations of the strife, and can never restore peace or constitutional supremacy, and thereby complete the work he and other brave soldiers so ably commenced. The war was only the first epoch in the history of the struggle in which we had been so long engaged. The work of the soldier, I trust, is forever ended, and it remains for the people to fulfil the great object for which they or their sons and brothers were called to the field—a restored union of States and hearts, an invigorated Constitution, to be firmly and faith fully supported, the maintenance of national credit inviolate, the re-establishment of national and State rights in all their integrity, and thus true harmony and a lasting peace. These are the objects for which every citizen should now strive, and believing these to rest in the success of the Democratic cause, by the election of the eminent statesmen selected to re present the party, it is my intention to sustain that cause as a private citizen. With the request that you convey to the gentlemen of the committee and my other friends, for whom you act my sincere thanks for the compliment they have paid me, I am, most truly, yours, _ _ GEORGE B.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS, Tile Times says the late Archbishop had gained the attachment of the Church and the confidence of the State, and there are none who will not feel his decease as a pre mature loss. He possessed one qualification for his post in which he can rarely have been equalled. The Church of England shares in an eminent degree in the varied life of the nation, and the work of her clergy is singularly diversified. But there was scarcely any form of Church work in which Dr. Longley had not been engaged, and he had acquitted himself honourably in all. Bishops have been selected from college authorities, from school. masters, from men of learning, or from parochial ministers. Dr. Longley had been each of these in turn before he was summoned to the bench. The Times remarks upon the prudent moderation of Dr. Longley. It would have been hard for him to withstand the popular outcry against Dr. Colenso, but had he lived to watch the further course of the entanglement, it is to be hoped his customary prudence would not have deserted lihn. His policy in summoning the Pan-Anglican Council was questionable, but he at least restrained the " Synod." Between the two extremes of Rationalism and Ritualism he held a middle course. In his poison the Church still maintained her identity with the grave and moderate religion of his predec2ssors, and he has left no entangle ments for his successor. It is, perhaps, for the peace of the Archbishop that he died before the coming tempest in the Church has fairly arisen. His successor is not to be envied, nor is the Government for its task of appointment. The Times has confidence that Mr. Disraeli will make a good choice. According to the Standard if we desire to estimate the loss which the Church of England has sustained in the death of its metropolitan, we have but to glance at its present position. Party feeling never ran higher than it did during Dr. Longley's tenure of office, and it is due solely to the mingled firmness and gentleness with which he exercised his authority and influence that the strife has not been far more bitter, and the results far snore disastrous. For Dr. Longley .sfts a statesman as well-. as an. ecclesiastic, and he knew that in a comprehensive body like the Church of England the rein must not be drawn too tightly, or too obviously in one direction. He succeeded to the see of Canterbury at a period when the administra tive incapacity and blind partisanship of his amiable and well-meaning predecessor had brought matters to a serious pass. Upon his translation to Canterbury, Dr. Longley was naturally besieged by the extreme men on both sides. He succumbed to neither. He gave each party credit for sincerity and good motives, but he rebuked the short comings and intolerance of the one section,_ and the arrogance and provocativeness of the other. At the same time, he, never forgot that he was the con stituted champion of the Church against external aggression or coercion, whether on the part of the State or the Legislature in Downing-street or in Parliament. It was no slight achievement that the spiritual head of a Church so heavily trammelled should be enabled by sheer force of a personal invitation to assemble the representa tives of the Anglican Communion throughout the world hi conference at Lambeth. That gathering of 170 bishops from the uttermost ends of the earth marks an era in the history of the English Church, and witnesses to the hearty fellowship and religious unity which still pertains among the daughter Churches she has planted up and down the world. It was a grand conception, and it was amply realised, and the wise, kindly, far-seeing prelate, who imagined so vast a scheme, will always be remembered in connection with its happy fruition. The Daily News holds that amidst all the changes which have overtaken the episcopal office in modern times the see of Canterbury has preserved some faint traditions of mediaeval dignity. Though shorn of the privileges which once belonged to the first subject of the realm, the Arch bishop still holds a position little short of princely, and might, if he chose, exert an influence of which it is diffi cult to overrate the extent. A vacancy in the metropoli tan throne calls, therefore, for something more than the mere obituary which follows the death of an ordinary bishop. The interest of the event belongs to the future as well as to the past. The administration of the Archbishop has been marked by great moderation. The Daily News recommends the Bishop of Lincoln as belonging to the type from which archbishops are selected. Mr. Disraeli, however, has no dislike to dis tinction when there is nothing to be gained by ignoring it ; and if the exercise of his patronage should immediately precede his departure from office, he may possibly prefer the credit of making a good appointment to the convenience of making a merely safe one. The appointment of the Bishop of Lichfield would be the most popular throughout the country. The Bishop of London would, under ordinary circumstances, be the first in the thoughts of a Minister, but his health is too preca rious. The Bishop of Oxford has abilities which would fit him to occupy the highest place in the Church, but we cannot imagine any statesman thinking his appointment to this vacancy desirable. The Telegraph says that in the placid and prosperous current of the Archbishop's career there is not much with which to furnish the elegiac muse; his career was that of an extremely fortunate, judicious, and pious Churchman, and his character was of that equable and uncoloured kind which escapes censure by declining speciality. Com. menting upon the appointment of his successor, the Telegraph remarks that we want in the days of irresistible change approaching, not foolish prelates who will try to stem the stern flood now gathering, but wise ones, skilful to lead it in the channel of a right and religious mood. Divines must make up their minds to move with the current, for they will find that the effort to stem its passage is as vain as the attempt of King Canute to keep the sea from wetting his footstool. With the pious and accomplished Dr. Longley the quiet times for Church and privilege have passed away. The keen, investigating, critical thoughts which have been gathering are preparing their instrument while we write, and will by-and-by take it in hand. The Star describes the late Primate as of a fine presence, a benignant aspect, and a good voice. Like his prede cessor, his disposition was amiable and his manners con ciliatory, and, like him also, he possessed no great force of character. This was, perhaps, his chief recommendation to those who elevated him to the primacy. To put a strong partisan, a bold and uncompromising ecclesiastic, in the foremost place in the English Church, would not have suited the views of statesmen who, above all things, desired to see moderate councils prevail in the Establishment, and to strike the balance evenly between opposing parties. The cast of his mind appeared to tend towards what are called Evangelical opinions, and to the practice of a sober ritual ; but, at the same time, he was not so pronounced as to prevent friendly and even cordial relations with that school of thought which is repre. sented by the Bishop of Oxford and Dr. Pusey. It would be hazardous to venture a prediction as to his successor. It remains to be seen whether the Premier will be guided by purely party considerations, or whether he will elevate . to the vacant archbishopric the prelate best qualified to serve the Church of England in this crisis of her history. The forces which are at work in the Church are probably too powerful to be guided or restrained by the authority of any primate, however great his sagacity ; but a good man, a true Protestant, one who blended the traditional feelings of an English prelate with some regard for freedom and progress, might exercise a salutary influence on the religious future of this kingdom. The Times says that to any one who does not lose sight of the material interests of the country amid the more exciting Questions of party politics, such an incident as the reception of Lord Salisbury at Manchester is very gratifying. That nobleman is known under two aspects— first, as a staunch and unbending Conservative, whose vigorous oratory has never been wanting when any measure of a democratic or latitudinarian character has been advo cated by the party opposed to him ; secondly, as a man of powerful practical understanding, a remarkable talent for administration, and an enegetic will in carrying out what an acute judgment tells him to be best. Lord Salisbury was, by the admission of men of all parties, an excellent Indian Secretary. That country has never failed to obtain the services of able men in various departments. - An immense share of the political and administrative talent of this kingdom has always been attracted to it. The Post remarks that the Manchester Chamber of Commerce has very properly acknowleged the vigour and ability displayed by the Marquis of Salisbury during the term he held office as Secretary of State for India. Few men are more capable of speaking with authority on Indian affairs. With regard to India, with the exception of Manchester, few places seem to trouble themselves any more about it than they might be expected to do if it did not belong to us, and as if we had not incurred those high responsibilities concerning its welfare which Lord Salisbury reminds us of—to say nothing of its immense value as a possession. • gratified a n c a e s t t e t r h C c a e na c e b p e t r i o o n f accordedr e t e o .

It is even more creditable to them that they should be able to lay aside their differences and unite in a cordial recognition of a statesman who has played a leading part in our recent political history.
