THE IRON TRADE.

The general trade of the district is dull, as is usual at
the end of the quarter, and the same remark applies,
perhaps, in a greater degree to the state of business in
the town ; not so much in regard to the manufacturers,
who have, most of them, quite sufficient orders to keep
them on working full time, but because there have been
few orders received during this or the last, three or four
days of last week. The factors generally concur in
reporting trade as flat, and until the elections are all over
it is not likely to rally. In the foreign trade there has
been no new feature this week; the accounts in relation
to the Cape trade are still favourable, though of course
large orders from that quarter are not to be expected, but
it has very much improved of late, and there is every
reason to believe that that branch of the colonial trade
will continue to exhibit an increased vitality. The South
American mail, arrived this wesk, has brought compara-
tively few orders—a circumstance which has e;cited no
surprise, the trade with that quarter having been remark-
ably brisk for two or three seasons consecutively, and
several of the principal markets are stocked with more
than an average quantity of hardware goods.-7he
