MARKETS.

HARDWARlL—Binsaitanan, Mar 13.—The trade of
this town continues languid ; all the orders coaling in are
small, as they have bees for the lest mouth or sir weeks.
With respect to those from the agricultural districts norm-
prevenient whatever is experienced ; with Yorkshire, Lan-
cashire, and the north country generally, more busbiess is
being done, and the Scotch trade has slightly rallied, bat
notwithstamding the foot of a fair sprinkling of orders baving
Tema, come in from that quarter, manufacturers se a rule
lad it to be quite as mach as they eta do to keep their faith-
bailments in full work without making up goods for stock,
of which, however, there has not been mush augmentation
at pigment in any branch ; nothing more in feet than a slight
spirt in trade would be sufletent to clear aft. The foreign
trade has undergose very little change of late; with the earth
of Europe business continues dull; there is an average
amount being done to Spain, and rather more on 6000086 of
Italy, the Levant and the Matte/mime markets. A few
orders have just bees gives out on account of Mexico. In
referee°, to the state of particular branches the is little
to all for remark ; the electro.platan generally report
a more plentiful eupply of orders in that branch;
from the button makers and hook-and.eye manufacturer
the accounts are to the same offset. The hollow-wale
tirade is steady, and the edgs.tool makers are work* fall
time. At some of the rolliarmille quieted* is experteneed,
and the demand for material bee net improved. The iron
trade of this district is anything but settee ; at some of the
works they are fairly supplied with orders, but at otters in
high repute they have not sufficient to keep all their mills
in operation.
