MANCHESTER, Jurtz 30 —There has been a decidedly
improved inquiry in the cloth market to-day, and rather
more business has been done. The extent of transactions is
not very considerable, but prices are firm, and the market
is iolicative of more confidence. There has been rather
more doing in yarns for domestic., for the home trade, and
they are rather improyed in price. There has been more
business also in cop-yarns, as high as 32's or 34's, for the
home trade generally. Yarns for export have been rather
flat, but there is no alteration in prices.

WOOL, OIL, and DYE WOODS.—Ltvraroor, July 1.
—Wool : Since our last monthly circular was issued, the
wool market has undergone a change, and a falling off in the
demand has been apparent, caused by the unsettled position
of affairs between Turkey and Russia, and the fear of an
impending war. It is satisfactory to notice that the proba-
bilities of a rupture, from recent advices, is more remote,
and, as there is no scarcity of orders in the manufacturers'
hands, with very little abatement in the consumption, the
prospects arc, that in a short time the returning confidence
will be fully:established. In some instances, the alarm created
induced several parties to realise a slight reduction,
but the principal holders have been firm in their
demands, sa the high prices given abroad, together
with high rates of freight, leave them no range for sub-
mitting to lower value ; this, coupleddreith only moderate
stocks, induces the idea that manufacturers must soon again
enter the market. The English clip is now coming forward,
though but sparingly; the needy farmers have already sold,
but the majority who are in a position to hold refuse to sell
at present rates, and seem determined to have their own
demands, or keep their fleeces in store ; what their tenacity
will entail, may be conjectured from past experience. The
chief feature of tho month, was the public sales held here
on the 9th and 10th ultimo, at which about 6,700 bales were
introduced, comprising a I ergs quantity of Entre Rios, Buenos
Ayres, and East India, these auctions were more thinly
attended than any for a long time previous, attributable
to one or two causes, and the result was as might be ex-
pected, unsatisfactory to the vendors, and pleasing to the
buyers; Bast India sold at a decline of td. per lb. on white,
and id. per lb. on yellow and grey, &e. Buenos Ayres
went languidly, but good prices were offered for the bat
description of Entre Rios, free from burr, or nearly so ;
other classes there was scarcely any bidding for, sad were
generally withdrawn. By private treaty, the business of the
month has been retarded from the indisposition of importers
to acept lower rates, and the transactions are limited to a few
parcels of Buenos Ayres, Russian, Turkey, Peruvian, Rim-
' siaa autumns, Crimea, Egyptian, Italian Skin, East India
ate. at quotations firm. A few inquiries exist for good
Peruvian washed, the better classes of Senn, full combing
Donskoi, Cordova, and the hest white Egyftian ; Oporto
, fleece and lambs arc held stiffly, and considerable sales could
I be made of all these kinds at a slight reduction on the rates
demanded. The best flocks of Entre Rios continue very
saleable. Scotch : As yet, very little of the new clip has
been brought to market ; a trifling quantity of laid High-
land has been disposed of at the quotations ; cross is much
wanted, as well as god parcels of laid and washed
Cheviot; Galloway and white Highland are in de-
mand, and supply is only required to effect sales;
should the growers in the north adopt the same
course as those in the midland counties, consumers will
work more on foreign wools. English and Irish: This
market is now better supplied, as is generally the case im-
mediately after the shearing, but fleece wo-le have been in:as
limited demand as foreign, and few parcels have changed
hands, what is oa the market is steadily held, as it is im-
possible to replace more favourably ; shortly it is expected
that mere business will be apparent. Oil: Only a moderate
business is reported, consumers purchase only for immedi-
' ate use, and the sales are quite of a retail character ; what
has transpired in olive, buyers have had at quotations in
their favour; the tendency is still to retrograde. Dye-
woods: The demand is only limited for woods, importers
have yielded slightly, though the change is not ,
material.—
/Yom Joseph Robinson and Co.'s Circular.

CORN.-Btswisosas, June 30.-At this day's market
there was a fair supply of Wheat from the farmers, which
sold readily at fully 2.e. per qr. advance. Barley, 6d. to le.
per qr. dearer. Oats sold more freely, at the currency of
this day se'nuight. Peas unaltered. Beans dull.
BRISTOL, June 30.-Accounts from the country repre-
sent the weather as having been wet and unfavourable,
and as being calculated, should there be a much longer con-
tinnatce of rain, to do much damage ; and this circum-
stance, combined with the recent large purchases which
have bees made on account of France, and the consequent
excitement in the London market, has had the effect of
rising the values of English and foreign wheat from 2.. to
3s. per imperial quarter. Flour, for which there hu been a
tolerably good inquiry, participates in the improvement
upon wheat, and is dearer than on this day sen'night by
from Is. to 2s. per sack and barrel. We have a fair con-
sumptive sale for barley, which has advanced about 6d. per
quarter. In oats there is a pretty good trade doing, and
purchasers have submitted to an advance of fully 6d. per
quarter. Beasts exhibit greater firmness, although no
quotable improvement has taken place ; they are looking
up, and are already the turn in favour of the seller.
i The prices were as follows: English wheat, new, 445. to
1524. per imperial quarter; English red, -s. to -s. per
ditto; foreign white, 50s. to 545. per 4801bs. ; foreign red,
extra fine qualities, 4Gs. to 528.0 d. per ditto; fine qualities,
445. to 475. per ditto ; ordinary qualities, 40s. to 435. per
ditto; foreign bard, 401.0 d. to 425. per ditto ; English seconds
flour, 365. to 3911.0 d. per sack ; United States,&c.,sweet, 265.
to 275. 0 d.per barrel; English malting barley, -s. to -s.
per imperial quarter; English and foreign grinding ditto,
22a. Od to 231. per 4001bs. ; Devon and Welsh feed oats,
1114- 64. to 16s. Od. per imp. quarter ; Irish white ditto, 20s.
to 21s. per 3201b5. ; Irish black ditto, 19s. to 19.. Gd.
per imperial quarter; English beans, 384. to 445. per ditto;
foreign ditto, 33/. to 365. per 4801bs. The arrivals on ship-
board for the week have been-Wheat,' 400 quarters;
oats, 3,540 barrels ; barley, 480 brio., 2,220 qrs. The
averages for the past week are :-Wheat, 455. 2d. ; oats,
194. Gd. ; beans, 40s.

NEWBVRT, June 30.—We are this day well oupplied with
Wheat for which there wu a considerable demand at an
ulvance of 2s. per qr. on all descriptions. Barley in only
retail demand. Oats, Beans, and Peas, find a steady sale
at late rates.

Uxiiittnon, June 30.—The supply at market to-day is
very short, and the demand for Wheat brisk, at an advance
of 2s. per qr. The best price given is 58s. ; the average
price, 45. per qr. The trado doing in spring Corn is slack,
and unaltered in value.

1VATZ11101t1), June 29.—We h►ve not any arrivals of
foreign grain, nor any change in prices to report since Sa-
turday, except an advance of 3d. per barrel on Wheat. In
at) otter respects our market is in the same state as then
reported.

TAE 20Th REGINIENT.—The ship Arbuthnot ar-
rired at Southampton on Wednesday, from Canada, with

Regiment. This regiment is coming home to three detach-
ments. The soldiers who came home in the Arbuthnot
