The prisoner was slightly affected, and said, " I know

He was sentenced to death.

STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian of this day.
MANCHESTER, APRIL 3.—The India department of
our market has been favourably influenced by Lord
Gough's decisive victory in the Punjaub, and by the in-
telligence that, even in the absence of information from
the seat of war, there Continued to be an active call for
goods and yarns at Bombay, while, at Calcutta, a steady,
though rather tame, demand for goods (but not yarns) was
going on at firm prices. We have consequently experi-
enced an increased inquiry for shirtings, madapollams, jac-
conets, and certain other cloths adapted to those markets.
The actual business, however, has not been large; and it
has been in same degree restricted to-day by the refusal of
producers to sell at prices which were accepted yesterday.
An advance of lid. to 3d. per piece upon the attainable
prices of last week has, in someinstances, been realised.
The inquiry for yarns has not increased proportionately
with that for goods; yet an advance of i to * per lb. is
asked upon India qualities. It is too soon to judge of
the effect of the Overland advices; but the merchants
appear disposed to act with much caution.
ROCHDALE, APRIL 2.—We have had another dull
market to day—something like that of the preceding
Monday. Prices have been low, and the manufacturers
are poorly remunerated for their labour. There has
been very little doing in wool, but prices continuo firm.
HUDDERSFIELD, APRIL 3.—The sales in the Cloth-
hall to• day have not been equal to last week, but it may
be ascribed to the scarcity of stocks adapted for this
season; The business in the warehouses has been good
during the week. In vestings rather more is doing.
HALIFAX, MARCH 31.--The demand for worsted
goods is still languid, the merchants being unwilling to
accede to the prices asked by the manufacturers, and
the latter being equally unwilling to accept prices be-
low the cost of production. Yarns maintain their
firmness, and the spinners are busy on old orders ;
but new orders are cautiously given out by the shipping
houses, partly on account of the state of the continent
and partly on account of price. The wool market is not
active, and the quotations manifest a slightly downward
tendency.
LEEDS, APRIL 3.—We have had today a very in-
different market; nor was there much doing in the
warehouses this last week. We may, however, soon
experience some improvement in the export trade, as the
prospects for a good fall-trade to America continue
cheering, and the latest accounts from the continent and
from India are so much more favourable.
