THE CLOTHING MANUFACTURES.

ENGLISH Woot...—LE EDS, MARCH 26.—The demand for
combing wools this week has been very flat, and prices have a
tosuhislaylalavaar of the basyere. .
tiltißroot. WOOL, MAica 25.—business continues very
spiritless. Imports the past week consist of 76 Egyptian, 97
Lisbon, 241 Oporto, 50 from New York.
TRADE OF LEEDS.—There was a very dull market at our
cloth halls, both on Saturday and Tuesday, the home houses
being the only purchasers, and nothing delivering to direct
orders. Prices are without any alteration, but the stocks are
low in. the clothiers' hands. Business has also teen dull in
the warehouses since this day week.
BRADFORD MARKET, MARCH 25.—Wool—The business
cannot possibly be less for combing wools, as the trade cannot
meet the prices at which spinners will buy, and the transao•
tions are limited in the extreme. Noils are firm at late prices.
Yarns—The depression in the yarn trade is making ravages
on the smaller spinners, and those recently engaged find the
sacrifice so ruinous that embarrassments succeed. Every week
only tends to further present developments attending the
prices at which yarns are now selling, and there is no alterna-
tive but further curtailment of the T,roduction beyond what
has already been adopted. There is no disposition to spin to
stock, and the quantity of job yarns offering is very limited;
the cemand continues equal to the supply, but without any
improvement in prices. Pieces—ln this branch there is more
doing in the warehouses, and as ihse merchants have bought
sparingly, as the season advances better doings are expected.
TRADE OF MANCHESTER, MARCH 25. The flatness of
this market, observable on Tuesday, was more marked to-day,
and prices, though nominally unaltered, are practically as much
as id to id below the rates obtainable- eight or ten days ago.
The larger quantities of cotton coming forward, and the feel-
ing that business must soon receive considerable interruption
from the elections, have a depressing effect, and buyers are
holding hack. " Should the next American packet bring ad-
vices of a cotton market unaffected by the larger arrivals of
cotton, it may give greater steadiness to business here, but it
is generally suspected that prices will have given way, and
buyers are waiting for the steamer's news, before pushing for-
ward such business as they have.
