low. Another specialty is the apparent impossibility of
an end being put to the ruinoos competition to and from
the north ; but much satisfaction was expressed to-day at
the cessation of the 55. fares for the journey to and from
Manchester. This is taken as an indication that in a

holders.
Banking Shares showed a little dulness yesterday, but
on the whole there is not much change in these securities>
or in those of a miscellaneous character.
During the week two suspensions of houses in the
India trade have been announced, and yesterday a third
vita talked about. The bills of these houses given during
the worst period in the late crisis aro now coming due,
and es prices have since rather declined than advanced,
while trade has been excessively dull, embarrassment is
the natural consequence. We hope, however, that the
difficulties will prove only temporary.
The Provincial Trade Reports received during the week
continue to ape ,k of dulness; but it must be remembered
that this being Easter week,business has been only partial.
The manufacturers of Lancashire are in better spirits,
though cotton is rather advancing. The iron trades are
very indifferent, and the silk manufacture is again assum-
ing an unfavourable aspect.
