advanced to 102.. for the beet Friesland, and a clearance
having been effected, the market closed with a tendency to a
further improvement, but the weekly steamer from Har-
lingen, not arriving in time for Friday, there was no
market until to day, and the trade wee dull to consequence
at 100 s. to 102 a, for the best Dutch, and come portion re-
twined over unsold. A considerable amount of business has
been transacted in bacon since Moeday ; • largo quantity
stale and out of condition has been taken off at prim

COTTON.—Livzsroot., Just 26.—The fake of clitoti
to-day an estimated at 6.000 bales. The market col:dinars
very quiet, but without any change in prime.

COTTON 000D13.-11fauce L.STIIII, Jcera 25.—The
sales of yarn and cloth this week have sot bees extessive,
but spinners and manufacturers very generally now hold
rather extensive order. for future delivery, and there is no
Femme observable for salmi. The great bulk of producers
for India have work enough to last them nest; and some over,
the following month, so that buyers wanting early supplies
have a difficulty in placing orders eves at full prices.
sufficient demand for long cloths, T clothe, and printers
from the boom and general trade to keep stocks bare and
pricer steady. Notwithstanding the long continued depres-
sion canted by the war In the continental demand, and eve-
r:tall the absence of a German demand, the yarn market
eo moderately steady in price, except for One number.
and donbled.

WOOLLEN.—Lemma, Jugs 25.—We bays had a good
market this morning. Throe has been a numerous attendance
of buyers, and considerable antma.ion.

HARDWARE.—Blnutootthu, Jerre 25.—The trade of
this town osetinues dell. Many ago orders recently even
out amongst the manufacturers are for next quarter's dell-
' very, and thronghont trade generally there is an aspect of
languor which does not betoken any immediate improvement.
In some of the leas important branches of our trades the
depression is much fat. This causes a considerable number
of the workpeoole to be very short of employment, the out-
worker* being the principal sufferers in this way. In the
larger manufamories the men are working on the average
fourdays ; in a few they are making full time, as there will
always be way exceptions with such multifarious trades as
are canted 011 bore, even in times when more depression pre-
vails than there does at the present time. Whatever trade
there la going on at the present time is being dons pretty
well; end although business may not rally fsr gusher
'math, it will in all probability continue steady, though
moderate in amount. The ',hipping trade is for the most
part dull. There is said to be a little more doing on amount
of Anetralia ; but with the exception of the arrival
of the usual American packet (which brought
but few orders) there bas been none of any
importance since lest week. The preliminary meeting of the
Ironmasters of South Staffordebire and East Woreestanh'm
will be held next Thursday. No alteration in prices is anti-
cipated, thoegh the trade continue. very inactive; but a re-
duction in prices would involve a oorresponding one in the
wages scale, always an undesirable thing in South StaSird-
ebbe. In the meantime the pig-mseters are clueing the
make; seven or eight furnaces are already blown out, and
about ten days hence the late number of others will be out of
blast. A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Highway, iron-
ameters, of Wala4l (whom suspension wee announced in the
Deily Netts three weeks since) was held en Wednesday.
The liabilities were put down in the "statement" at 60,000/.
Almost the whole of the available properties are in the hands
of creditors; these properties are estimated to be worth about
22,0001., a sum short by many thousandsof pounds of the debts
they purport to cover as may be estimated by the fact that
the creditors altogether "unsecured" are to the value of
8,1001. only; whilst the letimated value of the property
to meet these, and the surplus of the secured debts is 4,900/-
only. The creditors were much dissatisfied with this Nato-
went, and a proposition to scoept a composition of 3e. dd. in
the pound, by instalments at four and eight months, wee not
accepted, an adjournment being agreed ape. until Tuesday
next. The holing of the meditate la to put the concern into
the bankruptcy court.
