STATE OF TRADE.

( From the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
MANCHESTER, Feb. O.—The departments of our mar,
ket which are suffering least from the present course o
depression are mule yarns adapted to the India brad•
which are taken with a concession of d. per lb. ; certain
counts of doubled yarns ; and such coarse cloths, and low
and hard-twisted yarns, to go to the Mediterranean,
which are yet too much under contract to betray in any
but a very slight degree, that a falling off in the demand
has actually taken place. Beyond these, there are no
noticeable exceptions to a state of dullness in yarns and
goods, which has at length become so great, as to create
a feeling of deep anxiety among producers, leading many
of them seriously to contemplate a curtailment of their
production. The spinners of fine yarns, whose business
has long been a losing one, will meet tomorrow for the
purpose of considering a proposal to limit the hours of
labour in their establishments. The makers of India
goods and ♦arious other fabrics are strongly advised
by the agency houses with which they are connec-
ted to adopt a measure which seems to be the
only means of preventing such an accumulation of stock
as must shortly tie up their hands most completely ;
and we hear of two mills at Preston, in which the work-
people have received the notice usually given prior to
such a restriction. The producer will find an additional
motive to this course in the fact that the raw material
remains firm in price, while the finished article is every
week involvirg him in a greater loss.
GLASGOW, Feb. 9.—Thera is no change to report in
our cotton market. The same quietness which has
prevailed for two or three weeks still continues, and
prices are getting lower.
BllillFo B.—Wool—There is no alteration
either as regards demand or price of combing wool,
and the sales were very liraited.—Yarns---There is no
material change in the demand for yarns, which is stea-
dily on the increase, and prices firm.—Pieces--The
manufacturers complain loudly of their profitless busi-
ness, for goods are sold at such prices that must entail a
continued loss, and there is no disposition to increase the
present limited production.—Bradford Observer.
LEICESTER, Feb. B.—Complaints of the flatness of
trade are becoming more general ; scarcely anything is
selling in any branch, except for Government orders,
There is no alteration in the price of either yarns or wool
- to report.—Leicester Journa?.
