STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Leeds Intriligencer of Saturday.)
'III4APi or LEEDS.—The market of Saturday last was
one of the worst we have had for some time. Very fey/
rterchants attended the Halls, and the time when fewetser
saltl' were effected is scarcely recollected. The stre
bear arriillc testimony to the numbers out of employ. 00
Tuesday there :Aso a flat market. The few sales that.
effected consisted principally of low Petershams, And
scarcely any tine cloth changed hands.
s
HEctistomowutE.—The blanket market continues in
very depressed state ; the accounts Prom America are un-
favourable, and the borne trade is all that can be expected
to give relief to the manufacturers.
The blanket trade at Dewsbury and the neighboUrh°4
has not t'eert in such a stagnant state as it is now for '
long time past. For game months the mills have beta
Worliag at short time, and we regret to hear that it is net
the worst, for one of the principal firms have announced an
intention to reduce the wages of their workmen in order to
enable them to meet their competitors in the market. TIT°

BIIAAFORD 111A-RICET.-We have no improvement to
note in the demand for goods on Thursday, and the little
bminess done was transacted on lower terms. The sales

of wee! and yarn were lly limited.
HALIFA)s, MARKET,equa MAY 27.—We regret that our
Market still continues in the same dull state which has g!)
long prevailed. The purchases iriade are upon a very 01"
ted scale, and it does not appear that even a further lee
ering of prices would promote business. for
Huddersfield Market on Tuesday was better than
moods e
some weeks past so far as relates to the quastity 02 ,0
sold ; but we believe that in most cases reduced prices

submitted to, to effect sales. 1,10
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MAY 29.---There --t
been another bad market to-day, worse, if possible, Os
that of last week. Few pieces have been sold at any
pric
The little business that has been done in wool was at prices
lower than those of last Monday. :r,sted
BLACKBURNE.—No improvement has yet man.-- ,a
itself in our cotton trade ; very few goods have been le
during the past week, and at very low prices, and, clon,rthe
whole, we may say that things are in a worse state. .1. f
depression begins to be severely felt by almost all classes °
shopkeepers.—Blackburn Standard. for
MANCHESTER.—There was a pretty active demon'. i„„
yarn prior to the receipt of advices from America
morning, which threw a considerable damp upoo the make
but the article appears to be wanted to a consicierable cP
tent for export ; and it was not difficult to effect se.les
terday at a trifling reduction of price. For goods, g,°l3-e
es
rally, there is very little demand, and most descriPtl°
were sold yesterday at lower prices than were ever befit
known. We understand, however, that there is c• tfs„,ir
yesteru7;
business doing in the country trade, and the silk rnanu`°",
tures, which had suffered great depression, has now bee°°,l,
tolerably active, and the weavers are pretty fully employ

LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, .Icorg3'
