OOTTON GOODS. —MANCHE-raga, Dec. 30.—The yarn
market has been very firm, and a fair business is reported.
It ia thoeght we should bays bad much greater activity and
at extreme prices bat for the weakness exhibited by the
Liverpoolcotton market. Yesterday there was an exceedingly
large. burnoose in that market (20,000 bales mold), at ad-
vancing and many buyers of yarns came here to-day
prepto operate, but were checked by the early telegram
on the Exchange from Liverpool, stating that the cotton
market was pausing, and that the sales would probably
only exceed 6,000 bales. There was a very genera,' inquire
to-day for yarns, including buyers for China, India, Germany
and the Mediterranean. The home trade were slao among the
buyers, and the climsof yarns taken by this branch of the
trade were decidedly dearer, some oftour spinners asking f..r
the finer counts u much as Id. to 2d. per lb. more than
last week's prices. Although the market was checke.l,
there is more doing than for some time past, and many spin-
ners have sold out their stocks though unable to get price,
which will induce them to take contracts. In cloths roe
have had leas business doing, decidedly, and this is al,
attributed to the fiettednotton market, for while man-,
facturen are asking an advance proportioned to the increa-rd
cost of cotton, there bas been wanting the spur_ which
most likely to urge oa buyers. Buyer; indeed, seen, 1,,
disposed to respond to the upward tendency of the market
than they were last week. Still there seems to be a hem
conviction in the market that prices will go higher, and oat
only are manufacturers firm, but holders on speculation
to have gained confidence. Some of the latter ere
=unheard of prices. What little business has taken
frhas been in small quantities, and for such orders
oly min by buyers who have urgent necessities) higher
rates have had to be given. It will be seen
by Mr. Farnall's report this week to the Com-
mittee of the Relief Fund that there is s
further falling off in the number of the persons receiving
relief in the district to the extent of over 5,000. It has been
stated in previous reports of this market that this was likely
to be the case, inasmuch as contracts have been entered
into daring the last three or four weeks enabling tuanufac-
Wren to re-open their mills. In the monthly trade " Cir-
cular" of Messrs. John Ponder and Go., of Saturday, this is
confirmed The demand for goods (during the month)
has been chiefly for those sorts need in the home trade, or by
calico printers, and for three goods purchases have not only
been mode from old stooks, but contracts to make have been
placed to a moderate extent." There Is no confidence here
that this improvement in the position of the working classes
will be long maintained, built it is only a temporary ieliet it
is one which will be regarded with much satidaction.

WOOLLEN CLOTH.—Luca, Dsc. 30.—The year cot
eludes, as most, with quiet markets; the houses this watt
are all stocktaking and balancing, and the markets at the
tans areaways in consequence merely nominal. The only
