COTTON GOODS. —filithcitUoirxn, Dec. 12. —The mar•
kit her recovered during the week from the depression
which followed the raising of diaconate, and both on Tues-
day and yesterday we had rather livelier marketa. The
business effected waa not lugs ; on the contrary the eggregate
sales of the week have been rather inconsiderable. Spin-
ners and manufacturers have regained confidence to a great
extent, and are naturally falling back on the high quote.
thins which prevailed before the troubles of the money
market disturbed trade. They have paid deer for cotton,
and they wish to cover the expenditure, and with
Lnkiroat, if that is possible. On the other
oonfidesce is sot no easily restored with the
buyer, and especially if he is a shipper to distant markets.
Of late the amounts; from India have been encouraging, bet
the shipper knows that if anything either in the tmericen
States or elsewhere turns up to depreciate the present MCC-
MOOS value of cotton or cotton goods, steam and telegraph
will have taken the news to Bombay or Calcutta long before
his goods strive there, sod this renders him cautious, to say
nothing of the three per cent. extra charged by the banks for
discounting the bills he draws against his shipments. Still
the market seems to be creeping on to more business, and
probably the tone of the advisee to hand by the Persia will
give more 000tideoce, indicating as they do that Winter is
likely for the present to retard materially, if not stop the
progress of military operations for a time. Messrs. Ponder

WOOLLEN.—Lam, DEC. 12.—The unpropitious wea-
ther this looming appeared to bare an unfavourable influ-
ence upon the markets, which were thinly attended, and
not characterized by any animation. The small demand
was mainly for spring sampler in light fabrics, in addition to
which a fee. tweeds and hair lista, and a sprinkling of heavy
goods, met with purchasers. No notimable change in quo-
tations.

HARDWARE—Biammaum, Dry. 12.—The trade of
this town continues active ; onion come infreedy on account
of the country shopkeepers, and for hardware goods in
general domestic use there is a brisk demand, most of the
manufacturers haying orders is hand at this moment to
keep them in full work until Christmas. The export trade
has undergone very little change of late ; there is • fair
amount of business doing with the eastern markets, acid the
(Awe sod Australian trade is pretty good, and fr.= America
there are a few orders coming in. As to the state of the
principal branches carried on here there has not been much
change of late ; the metal rollers are bossy ; the platers re-
port a alight improvement ; the accounts are the same from
the jewellers and in reference to some of the limey trades.
The edge.tool.makers guierally are well supplied with orders,
this branch being well sustained by the demand for the
foreign markets, and the hollow ware and tin-plate workers
are doing a good average burliest& le the adjoieing district
of South Staffordshire and East Worcestershire trade is foe
the most part active ; the foundries are all in full work,
and the steady demand for railway fittings is sufficieut to
keep all who are engaged in that branch tally employed. At
Walsall the saddlers' iroomongers are doing a good trade for
the Ilee•00, and the gas-fitters are busy. On the Dudley
and Stourbridge side of the district all the large works are
in full operation ; the various trades carried on in the neigh.
bourhoods sat Wolverhampton and Easton are in a healthy
state, and the factors have been giving out a full
average amount of orders fur the time of year. The iron
trade continues remarkably brisk, but no further advance of
prices has up to this tints bees determined upon.
