MANCHESTER, Aug. 30.—The want of animation which
pervaded our market during the whole of last week has
been more decided to-day. Prices of yarns of all descrip-
tions are somewhat in favour of the buyer, except 60's
and upwards of first qualities, and doubled yarns, which

in the same period. India yarns are dull, and in many
instances a shade lower. In goods there is no particular
change to notice ; 7-8 printers are in fair request at for-
mer prices, but 9-8 are not so much inquired for. Low
jacconetts and inadapollams are steady in price : 40-inch
shirtings, suitable for India and china, are still neglected,
but prides are unchanged, the production of these goods
being now much diminished. Long cloths, T cloths,
and domestics are firm at former rates.
ROCHDALE, Aug. 29.----There was a tolerably good de-
mand for pieces to-day, but few offered for sale, on
account of the past week being the wakes, when the
mills stop a few days. For kerseys higher prices have
been asked and obtained, as well as for flannels of a
coarser quality. Wool is firm, with an upward tendency.
HALIFAX, Aug. 27.—With the exception of low mix-
tures, for which there is some little inquiry, the deMand
for worsted goods is almost at a stand in our piece-ball.
In yarns there is no change; either as to demand or
price ; and the wool market is quiet, at late quotations.
BIRMINGHAM, Aug. 29.—The extraordinary demand,
which it was easy to foresee would result from a long
holding back on the part of purchasers, after being for a
while retarded by the unsatisfactory prospect of foreign
politics, has at length fully set in. Orders for all de-
scriptions of iron are abundant, and the inferior makers,
who are not encumbered with arrears of old engage-
ments, are now obtaining the nominal prices to the full
extent of their production ; being thus in a better posi-
tion than the leading houses of the trade. For rails,
sheets, plates, and hoops, contracts are daily offered,
with a willingness to submit to advanced charges ;
but are refused even upon conditional terms, on ac-
count of the precarious supply of feul and labour, that
renders either the time or cost of execution a matter
of speculation. Nail rods also are again in good de-
mand, and the low quotations of quarter-day last have
been amended. The accounts from all quarters are of a
promising character, and indicate a renewed tendency to
higher prices. In the pig market considerable business
has latterly been done, and at somewhat better figures ;
but it is a matter of remark that upon the whole
Staffordshire pigs have not yet recovered their position
equally with manufactured iron, or participated in the
general improvement to the same extent as in the Scotch
or other districts. A statement has been circulated that
a further advance of 2s. per ton on coals has been de-
clared, but as regards this district it is ppremature. At
present no general advance at the collieries has taken
place, but the supply is continually lessening from the
still rapid accumulation of water in the mines, and from
other causes, while the demand is rather on the increase
before the approach of the winter months, so that there
seems every probability that higher figures will rule
during the ensuing quarter. During the past week there
has been a scarcity of tin in the market, which has oc-
casioned very serious inconvenience to the trade. All
the metal warehouses have been cleared out, and many
manufacturers in this town who have large orders on
their books have not been able to obtain at any price a
fourth of the quantity required. Last week there were
no sales made except at such prices as might be here-
after decided upon at head-quarters, and this week a still
further advance to 130 s. is threatened. Whether it is
a bead fide scarcity, or an artificial one, such as existed a
month ago, for the purpose of speculation, we are unable
to ascertain ; but from whatever cause it proceeds, the
injury to the manufacturers and their workmen is not
less serious. The copper trade remains stationary.
