STATE OF TRADE.

- -
(From, the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
MANCHESTER, Jan. 116.—This has been a week of extremely
little business in most departments. It is indeed the dullest
week we have had for some time ; and the depression has
become sensibly greater since Tuesday. The condition of
various foreign markets has awakened the sense of caution,
and rendered it predominant among our commercial classes,
who are restricting their engagements as much as possible.
BRADFORD, Jan. 25:—Wool: There is a degree of quietness
in the market, arising from the small quantity consuming,
and an unwillingness on the part of spinners to -.,uy at the
prices demanded. Noils and brokes aro in good demand, and
the supply small. Yarns ;—There is a steady improvement in
the inquiry for yarns.
LEICESTER, Jan. 25.—The general trade is much moro de-
pressed than it was a fortnight ago, and many frames have
been laid down, consequently there is great distress felt both
in Leicester and the villages, by the population dependent ou
the straight-down hose, the qualities of shirts, gloves, &c.
HUDDERSFIELD, Jan. 23.—The market to-day was of a
similarly dull character as those held recently.

- _
ALEXANDRIA, Jan. 19.—Said Pasha, the Viceroy,
paid Alexandria a short visit and has returned to Cairo,
where his Highness continues to occupy his time in exer-
etsing. his army, particularly the artillery, and where he
superintends the fortifications he has determined upon
erecting at the barrage of the Nile,

Admiral D►undas, C.P., has arrived in Paris.
Dr. Philliinore expired at his residence, Shiplake, en
Wednesday tac.rning last, the 24th instant.
ROYAL GA.LLERY OP ILLUSTRATION.—The diorama of
the events of t he war has been visited by the following
distinguished and fashionable parties :—The Duchess of
Sutherland, accompanied by Lord and Lady Blantyre,
and Lord Rona ld and Lord Albert Gower ; the Duke of
Newcastle and Lord Lincoln ; Maharajak Dhuleep Sing,
attended by Sir Chas. Logan ; the Countess of Paulet
and party ; the Due d'Ossuno and Baron Vidal and
party ; Viscount Canning ; Lord and Lady Campbell

PitovIDENT CLERKS' ASSOCIATION.—We have been.
informed that several eminent banking and mercantile
firms have liberally aided their clerks to assure their lives
in the above association, and that others are likely soon•
to follow so good an example. It is of course needless to
show the great advantage derived by all employers from.
fostering habits of prudence in those to whom their inte-
I eats are necessarily often confided. A further election
t f disabled clerks and widows is also announoed.

OFFICIAL DESPATCH FROM FIELD-
MARSHAL LORD RAGLAN.

(FROISL LAST EVENING'S GAZETTE.)

WAR DEPARTMENT, JAN. 24.
His Grace the Duke of Newcastle has this day received
a despatch, of which the following is a copy, addressed to
his Grace by Field-Marshal the Lord Raglan, G. 0.8. :
Before Sebastopol, Jan. 6.
My Lord Duke,—The weather has been so bad since I
wrote to your Grace on the 2d inst., that I have not yet
been able to disembark the 39th, with a view of encamp-
ing the regiment, and it still remains on board the Golden
Fleece, in the harbour.
The ground is thickly covered with snow, though not
very deep.
All my endeavours are directed to the speedy disembar-
kation and getting up of the huts, which have now arrived
in con iderable numbers, and the establishment of the de-
pot of provisions, which I alluded to in my last despatch,
near head-quarters, which I am now enabled to do, with
the assistance of the 18th and 39th Regiments, the first en-
camped near Balaklava, the last still sleeping on board the
Golden Fleece.

There has been no movement on the part of the enemy.
I enclose a return of the casualties that have occurred
up to the 4th instant.—l have, &c.,
.._ . ...... ......
