COTTON.—Ltviaroot, MARCH la—We have had a f
demand today, without change in prices. The
I;,000 bales, which 2,000 are for export and speculimoo

WOOL am WORSTED.—BAADFORD, Main% la—
There bas been a much better tone pervading the tna,
during the week, and it is apparent to-day. There Lu
been a better demand for wool, and the currency LAB Letn
more settled than it was, having in fact a rather herds",
tendency. This may arise from spinners, finding no dim:
ing tendency at the late Bristol fair, having come ink,
the market to supply their wants, which had become muss
urgent. Spinners for the home demand are doing a (sir
amount of business, but those employed fur export are fa
the most part working to stock. The piece derem,,,,
le only slack. The home buyers operate with caution t, a
very limited extent. There is a more buoyant feeling ran
regard to the trade with Fran**. and tether more Lai.
nem doing. There is little doing for Germany.

LACE AND HOSlERY.—Norrnronaw, 'team 11_
Both the staple trades of the district are in a similar crs.
dition to what they were last week. For the home market
the demand for all kinds of Mob is very quiet for the sce.ba,
but one or two houses have received a few small orders from
America. It is expected that the season for more acber
operations at bonze will be late, as the feats of Easter eel
Whitsuntide are a week or two later in the year than mai.
The hosiery manufacturers still complain of a dull state of
bade, but for the last week or two inquiries have lees
made from the States, and it is fully expected that emir
safe houses on the other side of the water will begin
placing a few considerable orders to replenish their
stoos. At most of the warehouses in this country stake
are pretty large, and very little replenishing will be re.
quired until some material reduction can be effected io
prices. By the trade and navigation returns just printed
we learn that during the month of December last lace and
patent net of the declared value of 24,1771. was exported,
' against 39,014/. in the same month of 1860, and 32,1011, is

CORN.—Brattlieontak, Kowa 11—At Wolverhamptce
yesterday the wheat trade was slow, but lower prices were
