COTTON GOODS.-11fA1CRE8TER. JOLT 11.—Trade has
almost been suspended during the past week, and buyers
and sellers have been waiting the arrival of the Sootis's
'deices, believing they would contain momentous intelli-
gence relating to the American struggle. This morning
they have before them the details, by which it appears that
neither has Grant taken Vicksburg. nor has Lee captured
Washington. In fact the history of three days in this war,
as in most others which seem destined to be of long dura-
tion, discloses little which can throw a light upon the future,
and men engaged in commerce can see no further in the
dark than other people. The 'emit jemmies of the Manchester
market this morning is quite as great as it was in the
earlier part of the week. Buyers are timid, and will not
be tempted to operate except by a great sacrifice in price.
Manufacturers do not ie. anything in the news to alarm them
into such a sacrifice, and there is little or no business'
to report. There are not many stocks, most of
those who are running their mills having contracts
for yarn and cloth which are now in course of delivery.
Many of the orders for cloth still being delivered are for
India, but we have had very httle, if any, new business this
week for that quarter. Some offers have been made in
yarn, but geuerally at prices which cannot be accepted.
There are said to be merchaute ready to give out orders
for some of the minor foreign markets which are known
to be bare of goods„ but confidence is too much disturbed
at present. and they are mostly offering very low rates.
What business is spoken of hos been chiefly in printers,
T cloths, sod domestics, and has been almost of • retail
character. Some little business is said to have been done
for the lighter shirtiugs for Bombay, but nothing in China,
shirtinp or Calcutta goods.

WOOLLEN CLOTHS.—Lutts, JULY 11.—TIN markets
this morning were well attended, and in the coloured hall s
fair business was transacted in meltoca (chiefly for autumn),
tweeds, milled dissociate, and other seasonable fabrics. The
white ball was only quiet; a few whose, changed hand;
but plain clothe were not extensively in request. Prices
are fully sustained.

HARDWARE. —l3laminotur, JOLT 11. —Mere has
been a further improvement in the trade of this tows ; it DI
DOW quite as full of animation sa can be expected et this
part of the year. Ever since the commencement of the
new quarter orders base come in steadily on amount of the
home trade ; the merchants have also been giving them out
steadily, so that at this moment there are nufficieot in hand
to keepall the manufactories in full work. In the metal
trades there is a good amount of buminem doing, and •
steady demand for all kinds of material. The tin-
plate workers, wire drawers, edge-tool makgm
and hollow ware manufacturers are doing •
Average trade ; from the platers the reports are
mush to the same effect, and for jewellery and other des-
cription@ of fancy goods the orders have bees much better
of late. Manufacturers are not making np goods for stock,
and there is the least possible amount of labour, skilled or
otherwise, out of employment. In the adjoining district
business is not brisk, hut there is a good general trade doing.
The concluding meeting oft he ironmasters was held at Dudley
this afternoon, but the attendance was small, and very
little business transacted, nearly the whole of the usual
quarter-day contracts having been given out at the meeting
in this town.

Nrwestrrta-oroti•Tnig, JOLT IL—At our market this
morning we had a very limited show of wheat from the
growers, and having little offering from the coast, fresh-
thrashed samples, being wanted, were cleared off early, at
the full rates of this day se'noight ; whereas in south country
or foreign few transactions occurred, the tenacity of
holders rettricting business. Flour without change. Good
sweet heavy foreign barley fully maintained its 'aloe,
whereas anything ordinary or not fresh hung heavily on
baud. Malt, unless fine, neglected. Beans and peas is
little favour. Being well supplied with Scotch cats, and our
collieries being well provi.led for the moment, sales prored
very limited in consequence, and where business occurred
buyers bad a slight advantage ; the quantity offering, how-
ever, being in excess of this demand, a portion will base to
be landed to await a renewal of demand. The arrivals this
