STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Manchester Guardian of Saturday.)

MANCHESTER, March 10.—The American advices
received this week state that the decline in cotton ha;d
been stopped, indeed that prices were rather inclinintg
upward. At New Orleans, the rate of freight had ris en
to 11-16 d. to id. per lb ; and the exchange was as lcivi
as 6to 6i. We have to report a further depression in
the Manchester market. Some degree of distrust is
awakened by the failures that have occurred ; and, noW
that war is actually at hand, the wisdom of operating
with extreme caution, and thus restricting liabilities
within narrow limits appears to be strongly felt. The
home trade houses are more timid and backward than
the shippers. They experience a great falling off in the
demand for goods ; and the bad debts they are incurring
render them increasingly wary in executing orders.
Cloths for this branch of our trade have suffered more
than others ; showing now, in fabrics for bleaching
and printing, a considerable fall from the highest prices
of some time ago. The India department of our mar-
ket is the best; the lower qualities of shirtings, mada-
pollams and jacconets being so well engaged that they
yield but little, while 40's, 50's, and 60's mule yarns are
saleable at full rates. In reeled water twist there is a
slight further bias this week against producers- Warps
and pincops show the same tendency.
BRADFORD, March 9.—The dulness so long com-
plained of still prevails, and spinners are unwilling
buyers. Yarn—Everything is as dull and discouraging as
possible ; the shippers are doing scarcely anything, and
the hem° trade in spools shows no signs of amendment.
Pieces.—There is no feature for the better to report, but
the time is drawing near when activity for the approach-
ing season usually prevails.
