Canna GOODS.—MANEEPNTEE, JUNK 12. —ln
yarns there has been a more cheerful feeling in the market
to-day, and some of the merchants have ventured to make
offers. The principle of these have been for yarn suited to
India, but at Id. per lb. under the prices which spinners
would be drpoeed to accept. For the home trade there
his been rather more business, and full prices have been
obtained. The yarn market dome with a more healthy
feeling than it has done for some days put. In cloth them
ia little or no change since 'Tuesday. The reports generally
concur In representing things Bat, and for the same reason
se on Tuesday, discouraging account, from India (buyers
for that quarter being now out of the market), and timidity
arising hum vague fears connected with the tall of Vicks-
burg. At the same time that these reports are given of the
market, as a whole, it is stated that people have
been availing themselves of the game flatness
during the week to put out orders which they have been
keepinglack during the late activity, and which they have
found might be placed with some disesteem. For instance,
we hear of a manufacturer booking a very Lige order only
yesterday, and at a price which will be remumnitive. The
business &deg in this way di said to be for no one particular
market, but is of a general character, arising out of the
lowliest to which stocks have been in many instances re-
duced in some of our large orders. We hear of very little
Matinees of a.peeulaive character. There am few or no
purchases for re-eale, and most of the emanations of re-
cast date have been entered into to supply actual want.. In
some qterteirs this business is attributed to an opinion which
is again gaining ground that whatever tempocary advantages
may be gained on filther side in the American eel war,
the struggle will be a prolonged one and this is all that is
necessary for the present to give one,

in his monthly report to the Osseo! Executive Relief
Commitee, dated Bth last.; give@ the number of operatives
working full Mita at 206,90% and those wholly out of employ
at 191,199, while rather more than 129,000 are working
oath two, three, four, or flue days per week. From this it
may be inferred that, allowance for the less produc-
tion obtained with Surat cotton as compared with American,
the out-turn of the mills is onsiderably more than half
what it was in 1860 ;or before the cotton famine had begun
to affect trade. As the price of goods, however, is not
quite double what it was then (though cotton is proper-
tionalily much higher), there is reason to believe that the
production so far lon not yet overtaken the means of eon-
suniptiou ; and hence there Is some hope that the improve-
meat, as far as it is gone, maybe maintained.
THE METROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORK& —The
