rally advancing Ante of prices in the market for the raw material
continues to oppose difficulties to any rapid improvement. Agents,
and parties buying by commission, where great discretion is not
allowed as to prim, are oontinnally pot out of the market by the
advances upon the textile fabric consequent on the rise in the
raw Maple, and hence there IA a great mentoulation of
orders which remain unexectitad. A most healthy feeling
however prevails, and a generally increased fi/Mllele on the part el
producers is demanding more remunerative rata evinces • *madame
that thin feeling is likely to continue. The emporia of the home
market are good, and though no greet amount of business is yet
doing, it is understood that the stocks of drapers are generally very
low, and that with the money of the srot• dames likely to be
diverted from the provision shops, owing to the prevalence of lower
prices, the replenishing of these stoeka will give an impulse to thin
department of the trade. The liabilities of the umbers who have
atorqed at Penton (the Messrs. Clayton; are estimated at 400,0001.

that there will be no toes to the public beyond the temporary them.

WOOLLEN CLOIHS.—LEEDO, JCLY 3.—There WM
very numerous attendance of merchants at the cloth-hal' e to-day; and
it ix gratifying to be able to report that more business wax transacted
than has been done on any market day for many weeks past. Dar*
the week there has been an improved amount of betimes.
principally with the buyers for home coneumption, the continued
in the price of grain having encouraged the hope that the bulk of the
people will soon again be able to become consumers of our staple
article of manufacture. We need not add that late prices were fully
realised.

HARDWARE.—Biantwomaw, JOLT 3.—Thera has
been a alight improvement in the Mate of trade here during the pat
week ; mime orders received from the United States and from South
America hare given an impulse to some of those branches in which
the depression bad been the most keenly felt. The button manufac-
ture., and in text most of these engaged in the lighter trades, are MI
suffering very considerably; the absence of even an average demand
for goods would have been iefficient under any circumstances to pro.
duce the most Minna injury; but this has been greatly a
by the fact that for months amounte have been no badly par' cones-
quest on the panic iV the monetary concerns of the cautery, that in
many Matinees the manufacturers have not been able to execute the
orders they had in the house.. Generally, however, it must be con-
fessed that trading concerns hereabouts wear a more cheering aspect
than they did a couple of months ago. From S tourbridge, and the
mineral district surrounding it, we have information that trade i.
In a healthy state; the glass trade has been somewhat de.
premed, but it la again reviring. lame—The iron masters
of South Staffordshire and Shreire held their usual meet-
ings preliminary to the ensuing quarterly ones, at the Stewpooey on
Tbureday ; thereat a very general feeling was expressed that the
demand for the commodity WY aulßeiently huge to enable them to
stand by existing prices; such was their resolve. But it is proper to
arrest a sort of nuaapprehension which seems to exist relative to the
ramiution• at theft meetings; the ircemseters themselves cannot
fix prima; these are of course regulated entirely by the demand to
the article they produce, so that to a great extent their meetings are
more of a formal than any other character. It is at the meetings of
the entire trade, maker., manufacturer., and other consumers, that
better opportunities are afforded of ascertaining the extent of the
demand. Iron is sold under price almost every quarter, by a method
which persons connected with the trade well know ; this has been Mga
ewe, assuredly, daring the quarter just expiring'; but with pew
sent prospects of an itaamsed demand for manufactured goods it
may be the mean. of producing a greater degree of firmems
prices. At t, the orders in hand are chiefly for iron foe raw
taxa : The demand from hence in still inocamidevablej
=iks. are believed to be entail.
