COTTON.—LivnlipooL. JAM. 31.—The tnark,t tr-elay

MANCHISTIR, JAN 31.—There was s quiet mxrk,,t, but
prises were vegy droa Neither the home trade nor ;hipper' were in-
eased to do wash brines. Maattfacturers and spinners are largely

HOSIERY AND LACE TRADES.— Normal' Am,
Jan 111.—The ent-un soften how) workmen bare chained • further
advisee of wages; the amount, though small, will be beneficially
felt. TM silk glove bands, with some =motions, have pretty gear-
rally obtained their rrgul.tion of prices, which, in some imamate', in
of aces importunes to the weakens than might have been expected
from a mere equalisation. The drawer, pantaloon, and shirt trade to
la a rod state at prosperity. The cotton glove trade to also In a very
brhit state. The maim bedsits net trade has farther improved, and
keeps slowly advancing, but the spinners, doublers, and dealers assert
that there la • scarcity of thread, and the triachine.owners are put to
seek inconvenknot In emsespience, that they contemplate a general
st of the mactdoes for • short time. The silk trade is
gradually recovering, but if from the above muse a stoppage of the
=schism takes place, this trade will, In ad probability', be over-
whelmed with production. The certain bobbin net ter. is rapidly
extending, and circular bolt machismo are in good demand. Some of
these have been purchased for Franey where the manufacture of
figured lace cuddle hoe commenced. The warp trade, hos so far
recovered, that the workmen contemplate forming • general union of
all the hands working warp frames, from the finest to the coarsest
per, concertos that a number of branches can better supprvt one
another, than • 'angle one can maintain its awn Intereats. In this
they have been encouraged by some of the manufacturers. Since the
breaking up of the union, some years dare, wages have lowered to
ono-lifth, and in some instmces even less.—Notts Review.
