any improvement in the demand. In all the other ram

descriptions of goods has been somewhat upon the Mere.
especially in the tweed and fancy departments. The
shades of mixture tweeds have been in tolerably
request, and have changed hands to • fair extent. both
amongst home and shipping buyers. Thin union Wat.ll;l
have also been in fair demand, some tolerably good pato:.
having changed bands, especially in connexion with de
shipping trade. Plain cloths in blues and niedle)s hoe
not been much inquired after, and parcels have been owie
only in isolated cases. There has also been • little more
