MANOnEsien LEA. 4.—lt nsa been a very gloomy mar-
ket, both in cloth and yarn, and prices have had a drot•ping tendency
throughout. At the same time a good deal of firmness has been
manifested on the part of spinners as a general rule, although,
' where paler have been effected it bas been on terms slightly in favour
of the buyer. As an exception to this, common 40's twist bold firm
at the quotations of Let week, and purchases have been made where
required on these terms. In cloth there has been little cluing, and a
deposition on the part of buyers to avid making purchases except
at reduced prices, has interfered to prevent much business beieg
trsniacted. In the finer descriptions et cloth the same remarks apply..
Whatever sales have been effected hove been on terms sPghtlyin
favour of the buyer. The tenour of the 'alien from America have
disappointed parties here, as the accounts were anticipated as likely to
be of an exciting character; whereas it turns out, un the contrary,
that prices have fallen in the face of a large business and considerable
advances having been obtained at New York,

WOOLLEN CLOTHS.—Lzena. Dec. d.—Today there

tP.y of what-vie., 13,420 quar:crs, principally from Philadelphia,
Rotterdam, Dantzie, lionite.b•rg, and Bremen. There have been also
fair supplies of Egyptian beans, Indian corn, and barrel flour. The
trade throughout the week has been very inert, with scarcely a Tarim

NEWCASTLE, Dee. 4.—The weather has assurred a wintry
aspect; it has continued to snow without intermisnion since an early
hour this morning, which, if it continue, must tend ri Impart more
health to the trade. At our market this morning we had a lair sup•
ply of Wheat from the grocer., with only moderate arrivals from the
coast, but from abroad the supplies are to a very liberal extent, the
fleet which had been so long detained by contrary winds having come
in altogether ; notwithstanding which Pie trade opened,
with much 'hinnies*, and a good businese was done
chiefly in fine :mixed Dangle, for which our raiders willingly gave
47e. per qr., weighing 6 fibs.; inferior red making 42a, of the same
weight. In south country qualities few traneee,ions oceurtd, the
tenacity of the holders tending to check busint co, but fine Suffolk
and Norfolk yellow found buyers in retail at 435. per qr. of 61Ibe.
flour was held very stiffly, and late rates were sustained for choice
householdn, but the intermediate qualities were in little favour, and
most difficult to quit, although a alight concession would have been
made to have!promund buaineos. In Ilya little stirring. Malting
Barley must again be written Is. per qr. cheaper and in slow request,
but where a similar decline was submitted to in grinding, a gml
clearance was made. Malt unalterc d. ►sane excite little attention,
whereas boiling and grinding Peas arc is more demand, and the turn
dearer, and the same may be said of the hest descriptions of Oats.
PLlrlitollTit, Dee. 4.—The corn trade continues very eull,
end prices are the turn in (mum of tlio buyers, net from In-
creased supplies from grow,ns nor from abroad, but merely because
prima m Loodan ore lower. At this niorning's market there was a
Ro d attendance, but very little buiiinesn was done. Miller. will only
buy for immediate consumption, and farmers' neccesities oblige many
to sell.

B,U.lBlttlitY, Dec. 4.—We had an rxeeriee supply of both
RiteAt and Barley at oar market this morning, but there were no
buten, in attendance. The tn.de In Wheat was more sluggish than
012 any previous market day this semen, and prints declined fatly 2s.
Kfrqr. The Table of Flour receded Is. per sack, The bushiest in
Barley was squally depressed as in Whe-t, at a reduction of Is. to
Is. Gd. per quarter. Inferior samples were namely asked tee; and
tke trifling amount of business doing in Oats was Is. per qr. under
last week's prices. Other articles excited no attention. Wheat, tit.
to W. 15s. per loud. Harley, 21s. to tbs. bd. Oats, Hob to 22. Beans,
Ms. to 40s. Malt, Nis. to SC,. par qr. Flour, 275. to Mo. per sack.

CATTLE, etc.—Asanocate FAIIL—A considerable ha-
movement took place in the bu-inov of our fair on Thur•+l .y, as
CUMULI ed with those for a few months part. There was a tolerably
geed supply of store Cattle, which moved off pretty well, at an ad-
vance of about 10s. per he ail for all descriptions. There was also a
good chow of Lit stock, with a brick demand, and both Reef and
Mutton realbed Id. per lb. more money than at the previous fair.
Good dairy Cows sold well. In the Horse fair there were a few young
and valuable ones, but the majority were of second and third class
quality, and little business was done, at recent prices.
BURY FAIR, Dee. I.—At our great Cattle fair the chow of
➢easts was one of the largest ever known, and trade was slow, the
prices asked being very high In proportion to the price of meat: but,
towards the afternoon, the drovers gave way, and more disposition
w:.s shown to do business. There was about the usual supply ef Sheep,
but little demand for them. Inferior Horses wet* plenuad, but prices
low.

CaseTER FAIR —ne fair on Thurmlay was well supplied
with Cattle of all Ports. No prime fat Beasts, and few good milkers.
Inferior mats were in great abundance, and priers were generally le-
ant-ed. The Horse fair presented a poor show of good animals.
Middling sorted ones were also i.caree, but inferior Horses w re in
plenty, few buyers, and altogether a dull heir. Store Pigs more
than usual, and • pretty good stock of tut une,, which all sold at lower
prices. _

DERTT, Dee. 4.—There was only a fair supply of Brute
to-day, and the quality generally of the middling sort; the demand
was fiat, and it wan with difficulty that a clearance was effected. The
sheep peas wee. well filled, but they were nut much in request. The
number of fat Pip was not quite so large as on some preceding
markets. Beef made from Stl. to 64d. Mutton, Sel. to Sad. Veul,
Std. to 6d. per lb. Pigs, 7s. 6.1. to Bs. per score.

NORTHAMPTON FAlL—There was a very large shoe of
store Beasts on Wednesday last; prices were about aa usual, 'with
tolerably good demand. Of store Sheep there was a rather sport Sup.
ply, and a toll trade. Pat Beef wan in deeklarlysgood demand, at
somewhat blither prices. Mutton wus not in large supply, and the
trade was rather dull.

ROTHERHAM. Dee. 3.—We have a seasonable simply of
Beasts and Sheep to this day's 'market, of a fair average quality, and
the trade was good at last week's rates, sad in Come init....nee* a shade
higher. Beef, Ss. 6d. to 6s. Cd. ter stone. Mutton, 40. to 51d.
RgOBY FAIR was attended by extensive Feelers from die
tant parts of the kingdom, but the quantity of Horses offered was
but a tithe of the number on former occasions. Hunters were in
great request; the moderate supply had the t fleet of heightening their
value ; for the best 120 guineas were given, down to 70 guineas. Car-
riage Horses were also scarce, and prices varied from k5l. to 501.
each. C rt liorwm were more numerous, but the prices were not an
good as on former occasions, ranging Wow SOI. to 501. Cart colts sold
from 251. to 354 and a great number were taken beck unsold.
SREPPIRLD FAIR —This fair was held on Tuesday and
Wednesday last, and was one of a most busy d.seription ; in fact we
have not seen one so well attended for some time. The show of cattle
was only small, and of an inferior quality, there scarcely being a good
Horse in the lair.

CHEESE.—CHESTER FAllt.—On Wednerday. the No-
vember Cheese fair was well attended by buyers from all parts. The
quantity of Cheese pitched was upwards of one hundred and fifty tons.
Prime dories fetched 60s. and upwards, and middling, which were
much inquired alter, generdly areraged tram Ws. to 53,1. Some in-
ferior sorts ruled as low m 40s. There was not much left unsold.
