COTTON.—LIVERPOOL, AUGUST 21.—There vu •
moderate and steady buainess doing to-day, with a quiet
market and without change in prices. The sales an esti.
mated at 5,000 bales, of which 3,500 hales are for export
and speculation.

WOOL AND WOKSTED.—BRADFORD, Acaun 21.
There is a cheerful tone pervading every branch of the
trade. There is very little wool changing hands. This
may arise in • great measure from spinners having recently
laid in large stocks, and, consequently, are not in • position
to operate. Prices are m►intained with great firmness.
There is a fair business still doing in worsted yarns. Spinners
are generally well engaged to order for both home and
export. Twofold yarns are still in good demand, and corded
yarns are also active. Priem are maintained with great
firmness. The most remarkable fact this week has been
the sudden and serious rise in the price of cotton, There
is, consequently, a rather excited market to-day,
and manufacturers again demand • higher price for
Foods. Although the higher prima to cover the
increased rate of wagea checks business to a great extent,
many manufacturers assert that they have readily obtained
the fully advanced rates. Buyers in general have been
anxious to plus current orders, and some have thought it
prudent to negotiate contracts for future delivery. The
fine weather camas business in the warehouses to be
brisk, and the home merchant' are doing • satisfactory
trade. The increased duty on Bradford goods imported into
America will, in most cases, be very small indeed, tends to
strengthen the belief in some quarters, that even with a
continued war a fair trade may be expected to that country.
To-day's intelligence, we regret to say, points to • larger
strife in that quarter than has recently been anticipated.

LACE AND HOSlERY.—Norfirmwan, Aroma 21.
lace. —There is an average businees doing in all articles for
the home trade. The demand for black and white silk lace
continues, and for Maclaine, faxossies, and other descrip-
tions there is a fair inquiry. Plain nets are advancing in
price almost daily in ounniqnsoos of the high prices of
cotton. The German trade is quieter, though now and
then parcels for that ciowitry, for France, and America are
shipped. laces for trimmings sell well in the market.
Hoesery.—Ths hosiery manufacturers report that there is
• fair trade doing but that its coatinuation is doubtful,
being merely the clear* out of old stocks. After that,
prospects are miserable in the extreme, the rake of yams
Wag now as high as can be well borne. Cotton has made
assother bound upwards of ss. per bundle, and to Me their
own words "Manufacturers are at their wits sad." Nearly
all factories are working abort tuna—Nothispeem Journal.
