COTTON. —LiviaPox, Arm 17.—The demand through.

attention of buyers, and a large business has been done at

COTTON GOODS.—MANCIIIWILR, APRIL 17.—T0-mw-
row being Good Friday, the second market this week bas
been held to-day, and there was a good attendance of busi.
nes people both from town and country. In yarns there
bas been a very general business for all markets at an ad.
vanes of fully Id. per lb. upon Tuesday's prices. Buyer,
for India, China, the Mediterranean, and Germany have
been purchasers, and a moderate business has been done for
the home trade. In cloth there is not much change, but
prices have a strengthening tendency, manufacturers find-
themselves supportbd in demanding higher rates the
upward tendency a the Liverpool cotton market. here
has not been so mach business doing as at the minium,
meat of the week and at the close of last week. The clath-
ettlty of getting any advance for goods proportionate to the
Increseed cost of producing them is very discouraging, sad
we hear of a continued disposition to limit the hours of
labour still further.

WOOL AND WORSTED.—Buousonit, APRIL M
Th* inquiry for English wool to-day is limited to the actual
requirements of consumers, and the market-is characterised
by an entire absence of speculation. Priem are an usual at
this apnoea rather unsettled, in the prospect of the clip.
Spinners are inictive. There is most inquiry on the Nit
of those engaged in the home trade, but these mgard for
the continental market are doing little or nothing. The
Pieta market Partakes of the general dulness. The cacti.
vestal merchants operate very sparingly, and home
merchants are far from being active. The business doing
for Paris is rather quiet, but there is a good feeling with
regard to the prospects of the trade with that country.

LACE AND HOSlERY.—Norrittiaaw, Aran 17.
Tbe animates in the home demand for lace goods bat base
fairly maintained during the week, though we repot this
dace not apply to the plain net branches. Therehas been a lit-
tie moredoto&bowever, with the Continent,mul several °ran
are being *nested for Germany. The hosiery trade has
not improved thaw our last, the weather and the still up-
ward tendency ri yarns precluding any hops of a favourable
change for the present. The home demand is unusually
quiet, bat a few shipping orders have been received chiefly
from Havana, to supply the West Indian market& —Not-
tireptest Journal.
