STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Manchester Guardian of Saturday. )

MANCHESTER, Dec. 31.—The American accounts
received this week tend to confirm the anticipation
of an abundant supply of the raw material which,
for some time back, each succeeding mail has
been fostering. It may be that,from not making
sufficient allowance for the effect of full rivers and
good prices in hastening the supplies, too sweeping an
inference as to the ultimate amount of the yield is gene-
rally drawn from the mere statement of quantities ; but
it is as natural as it is salutary that such quantities
should conduce to caution amongst men of business ;
and this is precisely the effect produced both in Man
chester and Liverpool. In the latter market, the
sales are limited to 3,000 or 4,000 bags a-day, and
prices have lost id. since this day week. In our
market, it is evident enough that the operations of
buyers are restricted by their estimate of the probability
that the cost of yarns and goods may be cheapened in
the way referred to. We see this very plainly amongst
the home consumers of yarns, and still more so
among the home dealers in goods ; and the agency
houses connected with the nearer foreign markets
(those of Germany and Holland) find the same cause
producing a like effect amongst their correspondents.
Under these circumstance, and considering the season of
the year, together with the long continuance of rains so
heavy as to raise the price of corn, it is not surprising
that our market should be, as it is, somewhat inanimate
in most descriptions of yarns and goods. Yet the ge-
neral prospects of trade are so good as to preclude any
apprehension of prices becoming muchlower than they are
at present ; and hence a good deal of confidence is found
combined with the cautiousness that ally

are tending upward. Yarns—the year closes with
greater activity than several of its predecessors ; and
with the least stock of reeled yarns on hand that has
been known since our reporting the market. The
alteration from hank to spools havingmade the trade one
of day-by-day consumption, any accumulation of spools
readily brings a stoppage of the spinning frames, as
they cannot move without bobbins, and all spinning to
stock is at an end. The demand keeps pace with the
production ; and the contracts for January are not so
favourable to the buyer as those of the month near
closing. Pieces : This branch of the trade is bad as
regards price, and any sales now pressed can only be
made at a sacrifice to the maker, as the increased cost,
by advanced material, renders higher prices inevitable,

or a stoppage of looms must follow. Cotton : Fiae
double warps are again dearer, making an advance of

Observer.

LEICESTER, Dec. 30.—The usual festivities of the
week, and the annual stock-taking engagements, have
caused an almost entire suspension of business trans-
actions, and this will afford us space for a retrospective
reference to the commercial aspects of 1852. The first
part of the year was marked by a long, unusual, and
general flatness of trade, not arising from any baneful
effects of our "free-trade policy," but from the fact of
our staple manufacture being woollen, and the
home consumption of woollen gloves, stockings, draw-
ers, vests, and fancy woollens, having been consider-
ably diminished through the last three very mild
winters. Consequently the trade was very de-
pressed, employment scarce, and the workmen distressed;
but the circumstances of the latter were much alleviated
by cheap provisions. During the latter part of the year
our Australian trade has taken off the surplus stock of
woollens, and given considerable employment on orders,
so that this season (although hitherto mild) will pass
without any calamitous effects on our trade.—Notting-
ham Journal.

NOTTINGHAM, Dec. 30.—This week having been
mainly devoted to holidays, very little business has been
done ; but the appearance of an improved demand for
lace goods on the opening of the new year warrants us
in the belief that better things are in store. The busi-
ness doing in hosiery goods is very extensive in all
departments of this manufacture, there being still many
large orders not yet completed. The price cf yarn re-
mains unchanged.
