COTTON GOODS—Mannnerna, Fn. 9t—All first
clam qualities of yarn and of cloth have this week main-
tained tolerable steadiness, notwithstanding that the quota.
tiona of onion from America have anise lower, and that
the Liverpool cotton market bas given way. The needing'
of such goods is principally doe to the heavy augmented
for future delivery held by spinners and manufeetarers.
Seoond clan and inferior qualities of yarns and cloths have
undergne a deolitie, sad are difficult of sale. India mule
yarns are in some eases id. per lb, lower than last weak,
and water twist from 16's upwards are easier to bay. Cops
sod twist for the home trade are la sane qualities id. per
lb. lower. The higher counts of yarn and best qoali-
tie% both "intend doubled, ate better engaged than most
other deseriptioes, and prima are better supported in them.
Cloth has bees relatively steadier than yarns, sad for good
qualities of shirting sad printers most of the makers are
well under contract. Long cloths, domestic', and T cloths,
are less is demand, sad prices are weaker where manatee-
torn have to press Wee. It Is currently reported that
bands are scarce, and that but few mills net in which
looms are not standing idle for want of them. Ia such •
state of things it will baldly be surprising that the opera-
tives an uneasy, sod that turnouts are expected. Such a
result is to a great extent natural. which have stood
idle four or five years are now re-opening, and the owners
finding their old workpeople have been absorbed by their
neighbours are obliged to bid for them hack &gam. Is
same cases they have sg.sed to give 10 per not higher
wages to obtain operatives. sad wider she eireantattusess it
is hardly to be wondered at that the operatives el *thee
conerns are disposed to demand the same admits.
