STATE OF TRADE.—Ia the manufacturing districts
the closing of the old year and the beginning of the new has
tended to limit transactions, but the prospects for future
business, in 1852, are generally considered encouraging. At
Manchester, without any great activity, trade continues in
a healthy state, and prices, especially for yarns, are rather
firmer than in the previous week. The factories are all run-
ning full time, and a heavy production is going on, for a por-
tion of which there are contracts, and for the current descrip-
tions of goods there is a steady demand at full prices. At
Nottingham, Derby, and Leicester there is an improved
feeling, and a general impression that there will be an active
spring trade. For America, Canada, and the West Indies
there are already considerable orders in coarse of execution.
The usual quarterly settlement of accounts for the trade. of
Birmingham and the neighbouring districts has nece.ssarff
prevented the transaction of any extensive business, but tbi
does not interfere with the employment of the opera,"
classes, which continues generally steady.
