[tenon ova OWN CORRESPOWDZXT.I
This week there has been rather an increased demand
for some kinds of cotton goods, but without any sensible
improvement in the quotations: in fact, the approach of
better times is slower than was expected, but it is gratify-
ing to observe that there is no tendency to any further
decline of prices. Those who were too sanguine in their
anticipations of returning prosperity are now the first to
despond, because the period of improvement is slower in
its approach than they had anticipated. There is not,
however. in my opinion, any reason to despair, and the
Moir and gradual revival of' trade is the sure indication of
a steadier and more permanent business.
If employment can be procured for the poor, the present
storm might pass off without any additional losses to the
manufacturers, or sufferings on the part of the working
classes; and though great efforts are making to create such
occur no extensive or practical means have yet been
made known beyond some contemplated repairs cf the ad-
joining roads, which cannot employ half the number of
adult persons now out of work ; and even this has not vet
commenced. The Central Committee here hive given
notice to such of the unemployed poor as have been resi-
dents of Manchester for twelve months, or upwards, and
'who are desirous of working on the public read, to apply
at the office committee, in order that arrangements might
be made for procuring them work on the roads; in conse-
quence of this notice crowds have thronged round the
office, and to all appearance a greater numberxreapplying
than cau possibly be provided for.

EMPLOYMENT OF THE Poon.—As we notifiNl last week,
a meeting was held in the vestry of the patish church of
Halifax. on Thursday last, to take into consideration a
plan, proposed by Mr. Michael Garlick, for relieving the
meting wants of the unemployed poar, by furnishing
them with employment, and at the s•nme time to ensure a
more efficient supply of water to the town. Al'm. Rawson,
Esq. in the Chair. After some discussion, several resolu-
tions were passed to the effect, that a great number of poor
persons being in distress from want of employment, occa-
sioned by the great pressure of the times, it was highly ex-
pedient (if practicable) that work should be provided for
their relief;, that this plan is approved as highly eligible,
arid if sufficient funds can be raised. it shall be promptly
carried into effect, and that a subscription be immediately
commenced in furtherance of the object. Mr. Rawson
having left the Chair, the thanks of the Meeting were
given him as Chairman, when he liberally headed the sub-
scription with a sum of 1001.—Leeds Intelilgencer.
WENTWORTH AND CO.'BYORK PROPERTY.—On Friday
this property was again submitted to the hammer, when
the premises in which the banking business was carried on
were offered for sale in two loti—the portion nearest the
bridge was bought in at 2000 guineas, 1100 guineas only
having been offered for it. For the other portion 1000
guineas were bid, but it was bought in at 20001. The
building ground adjoining the premises was next offered-
-470 guineas, were bid for it. and it was also bought in at
1300. A share in the York Assembly Rooms was pia-
chaffed by Mr. Davies, solicitor, f4:r 20/.—Hull Pag;et.
