10,000 are for speculation Kai expert. The week's import
is 3,910 balm.

WOOL AND WORSTED.—Snanrouro, FEB. 13.—The
wool market is in a sluggish state. The transaction during
the week bare been few and small. Country dealers show
rather more disposition to sell,and are willing to concedef•
trifle. The offers made by the spinners to our staplers are
very low, but prices for moat sorts must again be quoted
easier. In bright-haired wools the fall has been greatest.
Some kinds of Coburg wools remain pretty much at last
week's rates. The small demand which exists is chiefly for
downs. Worsted yarn* are without change. Some spinners
for the home trade continue well engaged to order,
but there is very little new business. Manufacturers are
aware that they can meet with most of the yarns they want
among spinners' stocks, and do not are to take the risk of
ordering. The export buyers are displaying more than their
usual caution, and the quantity of yarns made for shipment
has seldom, if ever, been smaller then at present. In the
piece department the home houses are not busy. Orders
from the country &spats are continually given and dealt
out in small quantities. Merchants, too, are keeping stooks
down, and buying only for "sorting up." A few foreign
buyers have visited the market, and some slight improve-
ment has taken place since last week. There is • felling off
in the demand for some sorts of fancy goods, but
the latter class of goods, particulatly fancy mo-
hair*, are readily taken. The commercial advice.
from the Continent are more reessuring. No fresh failure.
have taken place. The monetary pressure seems to be
everywhere gradually subsiding, and it is believed that the
mills will ultimately settle down upon a firm, healthy basis.
Priem ere extremely firm. Worsted mixture., alpaca
lustre., orleans, mottled cords, and mohair' are still cam-

mantling a ready sale. Coburg. are rather dull. l'eion
luatiugs and must blade of all-worsted goods are neglected,
with the exception of martens and &balloons, whiee lqa-
thine to move off freely. Manufueturera are still well et.:

LACE AND ROSlERY.—Normicasn. Fee. V..—
Lace.—There as not much change to note iu the bas
facture. Yarns remain firm, with an upward tenden s.
There has been a slight improvement in the demand
the home trade, though the manufacturers speak of it
not being general. Fancy goods, ouch as eurtait.• :
'della, are somewhat in demand for the French market,
small orders have been placed at some of the princlial
houses, but at present they are exceptional A few 4 ieruaw
buyers have been in the market placing orders for IL.
spring tads and independently of that no actual improt,..
meet in the demand for the German tmde ha, I,t,t,
manifested. The continental trade generally may 4„
rid to have improved, but even if the anticipations W him.
at present exist should prove true, the trade will be far he.
low the average of former years. The employment in fac.
torhea is only partial, and many workmen are still out f
employ, especially in the Radford dietrict. Hesiery.--
the hoeie trade there avery little alteration to natal.
Yarns still maintain their unprecodentally high prices, ea.!
manufacturers are principally engaged iu clearing out ..1,1
stocks at • little advance on former prices. The shippin;
and continental departments are fiat, and although there
• slight improvement noticeable in the home trade, it i.
confined to a few houses. There appears to be no cloui,t
that when the old stocks are cleared out, manufactured
goods will rise in price. The American trade is dull, awl
with little prospect of improvement.—Nortinghasi Jvur.al

MANCHESTER, Faa 13.—There was an average attendance
at our market this morning, and a little more inquir% was
experienced for moat articles, but the amount of basic.:
transacted was vary limited. Wheat, good qualities of
both English and foreign, could not have been bought at
less" money, bat boyars were few. Flour was taken very
sparingly at Let week's prism Oats and oatmeal moved
off slowly, and barely supported late rate'. Beans were
without material change. Indian corn was rather cheaper.

market, held today, was abundantly supplied with se
splendid a lot of cheese as ever exhibited, there being
nearly 300 tons pitched ; but the attendance of buyers was
