WOOLLEN.--Lcr.ns, JAN. A.—Although the morning
was dark and fogu, the cloth halls were moderately well
attended, and the buerne.... showed a decided improvement
on what took place on se% end previous market day's.

HARDWARE—Mamma:Han, AN. 5. —The trade of
this town continues quiet generally, and in some branches
there is an approach to depression, the latter being chiefly
in the fancy trades. The Lame trade is slow to recommence,
a circumstance which i• most likely attributable to the seve-
rity of the weather, to the influence whieh it necessarily
hair upon trade generally, and to the decreased means which
the uninstnal classes have at command for purchasing more
than the necessaries of life. There has been a rather consi-
derahle number of orders given out iu the cause of the
week, but there had been so few previously on hand that
these are insufficient to give much animation to trade. They
are just enough to keep the manufacturers from discharging
their men, though a good number are not making moru than
four days : and of unskilled labour the number of the un-
employed is increasing. The orders on Recount of the ex-
port trade are extremely small, and no improvement in
that respect is anticipated at present.

HCRTrORD, JAN. 5. We had a fair supply of wheat
to-day ; the finest samples fully supported last week's
prices ; the damp inferior samples made less money, fully
Is. per load ; and barley, fine samples, sold readily at rather
more money, with but few offering. Oats made last week's
prices. Peas and beaus filly maintain former prices.

IducEsraa, JAN. s.—There wax a tolerable show of
wheat from the growers at oar cora market to-day, and
samples came to land iu good condition, the bulk of the
supply being of the new crop ; old sort& were by no means
abundant. There was a tolerable demand, at an advance
of Is. per quarter. White descriptions moved off at tills.
to 70s. ; red, 50... to 60s. per 34; stone. Of barley there was
not a large show, and superior malting aorta being scarce,
the demand proved more active, and prices were in favour
of the seller, 375. to 425.

Grinding samples were iu moderate request, and chauged

effected at 325. t0135e. pettO stale. The supply of outs was

ROCIDATER, JAN. r. The stands of the farmers

with wheat and other kiwis of grain, and the attendance of
the town and country trade pretty fair. Fur good samples
of Enghah wheat there was a rather better demand at an

that buyers only purchased to satisfy their immediate wants.
