The accounts from the manufacturing districts
Curing the past week are, in some instances, of a
more satisfactory character. Business, however, at
Manchester has been dull both in yards and cloths,
°wing to the falling-off in the demand for the
Eastern markets. The woollen trade at Leeds has
Continued mcdcrately active. At Bradford, Hud-
dersfield, nod Halifax there is little change to re-
Port, although in the latter place the carpet trade
has slightly unproved. In hosiery and lace at
Leicester and Nottingham, an average amount of
business has been reported, and symptoms of
increased animation have been exhibited in the
lari°lls hardware departments in the neighbourhood
(If Birmingham, Sheffield, Walsall, and Wolver-
4411aPton.
Increased activity is reported in the general dis-
e°4llt market, and there is more inquiry for loans
,71
h°the Stock Exchange than for a long time past.
Provision made for the subscription of the whole
the Turkish loan at once, the impending intro-
duction of other financial projects, and the ap-
Pe4.ance of sa many new joint-stock companies, all
tend to stimulaio the demand, and to render capi-
taliBtB less disposed to employ their resources on
the present low range of quotations, when they
may be enabled a short time hence to obtain much
vetter terms.
