MARKETS.

TALLOW.—TIIIOIDAT EMINCI.—There was no change
in the tallow market to-day • prices closed the same as
yestarday. Dubow, yartarday, 141 casks ;no arrivals.

001 TON GOODS.—Yarecantrrica, MAT 6.—There has
been a better yarn market, but no improvement for cloth..
In the yarn market there was a decidedly more cheerful
feeling, and a fair amount of business is reported at lad
week's prices. The improvement is mainly due to a tele-
gram from Calcutta to the 17th of April, which state. that
prices bad advanced Id. per lb. on yarns, awl that the im-
port duties were reduced to 5 per cent. on piece goods, and
Se per cad. on yarns. The principal basilica done here to.
day baa been in yarns for India and China. lo cloth we
have had on exceedingly dull market. The telegraphic ad-
vises from Calcutta., which state that sloths were lid.
per piece higher, and the news that the duties
were reduced, led to the expectation of higher prices
and a more active demand, but sellers were disappointed.
Although the bugbear of French intervention has no longer
much effect, there is a strong impression here, an at Liver.
pool, that some negotiations are going on which may bring
about a settlement of the mutest between the North and
South in America, and whilst this continues and buyers of
cotton clothe have a fear of • sudden reduction of values be.
fore their eyes, they will not add to their investments. The
result is, that we have had a market almost barren of fruits,
so far as cloths are concerned. If any business could be
done, it could only be effected by a reduction of prices, sal
to this manufacturers who are at all in a position to bold
their goods will not listen. Some few who are compelled to
realise have done business, but these are few. Thin applies
to all classes of goods, whether for home consumption or
export. A strong feeling is expressed very generally
here against the imtecriptioos proposed to be raised
in Landon far the relief of the unemployed ope.
ratives her., or to any assistance from the Exchequer.
The kind and benevolent feeling' which have prompted pro.
positions for raising a national fund are appreciated ; but it
is thought such a course, whilst it would be vary inadequate
to the waits of a cluster of manufacturing towns, in many
of which the people have been accustomed to receive
60,0001. or 70,000 f. per week in wages, must nememaily lead
to great expectations among the working climes, to be fol
lowed by disappointment. Let the rates, may our wealthy
manufacturers, be doubled or trebled, if necessary, and let
the guardian of the poor be empowered to give relief with
• more Sherd band, and they
_will cheerfully aunt to the
taxi whilst they feel persuaded that the aid will be more
efficiently distnlnted aid with more economy than by any
other means. In the meantime it should be bora in mind
that many ei the manufacturers are lending and advancing
money to their workpeople, as they have done in part times
of
.pressure, to be repaid whorl work is more plentiful and
prices more remunerative. Any assistrince from extraneous
aurae. would ol necessity interfere with this, whilst it is
doubtful whether it would do as much good, though it
might lead to demorahation to au extent which it is not
to foram
