This is, perhaps, as mucli•;isible in regard to yarns for home manufacture, which Ite working of short timelias caused to be in rather shorter-sapply, whilst the resumption of work ing in some of the districts in which the looms were previ ously at a stand, hasoccasioned an increased demand.

LEEDS.—There has been quite as mttclibusiness done at 1 the Cloth lial4s as is usually the case at this season ; and the deliveries ottt of the market have been-to alai' average ex- tent, comparedwith the business of the last few weeks. There have also been some few orders given out for delivery in January; the• quills, in consequence, are getting into more active operation, and the prospects for'the winter are more encouraging. ranginess has been other thril in the ware houses, but not•more so than Usual attthiti period of the year. Briao7oiso,--Wools : The supply-of bright-haired wools is limited, and•cotnmanditig higher prices- than a month ago. With ccyuntryfdealers there is unusual degree of firmness in price, and, a desire to hold, seeing it difleult to replace. The spinners•are looking round, but the-prices sought deter them from , buying, except to assort up , their stocks. Noils and brokee•without alteration in price, and.made only in very small . qtumtities.—Yarns : More -doing for Lancashire, and the spool frames better employed,bUt the spinners are chiefly working to -order. Stocks of Yarns are light in the large spinners' hands, but the prices at which/hey are sold offer little inducement to augment their production.—Pieces: There is :somewhat more doing an Please. The aggregate supply of goods in the hands of themerehents, dyers, and manufacturers, compared with the same :period last year, is not more than half, owing to the producers having materially lessened the supply coming to .triarket,..and thus prevented accumulations of stock. The chances are, that the year will open with an. unusually small stook of goods, and with no prospect of •their being made cheaper 71hia-may lead to per manent activity at the proper season, -instead of this being forestalled by acticipitted purchases FIRST TEint. -- :lst 2nd Class—hliekkthwaite, Ha Evans, Postance. - 31 4 CartY, U, florUx Taylor, Brook, 3rd.• Ciass— PRINCIPAL'S PR2ELECTIONS.

The Pig market large at is to 2s per cwt. advance—prices 46s 6d to 47s and 48s, with a demand for the English markets as well as home use. PROVISION ARKETS LIVERPOOL, DEC. 9.—ln face of the high prices at which Beef has opened in America, our market remains in the same dull and unsatisfactory state, the sales being trifling in the extreme, and the dealers seeming more than ever determined to keep out of stock. A sm►ll parcel of new been received this week per steamer, but has not yet been put on the market. Pak is dull, with a downward tendency; there are arrivals of new French this week, also of new American. Bacon seems likely to move more freely, and at the prices which are now taken for old. early arrivals of new ' , Minot compete with it. Lard is lower 6d to Is per cwt., without leading to an increased demand. For spring delivery 52s has again been made. Cheese sells readily, without Variation in price. DEC. 1 9 ;2.-Our Butter market was dull, and the transac tions last week were only to a moderate extent; holders, however, are ren•.arkably firm, calculating that the high rates paying in 'lreland, and the moderate stocks held here, will cause prices to advance, and no change can be made in 'quotations.
