WOOLLEN TRADE.

(From the Leeds MerCury of this day.)

LEEDS, Aug. 11.—We have -no change to notice in
the state of the woollen cloth market during the "mint
week. There was an average business done in the
Cloth-halls on Saturday, as well as on Tuesday. The
mills and manufactories in the town and surrounding
district are generally well employed, and the operatives
in good work. The trade in the warehouses was rather
quiet during the early part of the week, but the appear.
ance of several good buyers in the town during the last
day or two has given more activity, and a fair business
has on the whole been dones.d_urTinhi,e, tmheacrkuertrenwtaws eaenk.itn.
