TRADE.

MANCHESTER.—WC are happy to state, that since last,
week, there has been a visible improvement in several of
the branches of our commerce, and that none of them are
worse. Beginning with the raw material, cotton, we may
say that no alteration of moment has taken place, either as
i
it respects demand or price. Yarns, both of low and of good
quality, are purchased rather freely, the exports keePlng
this branch quite clear of any thing like accumulation!
whilst, at the same time, they arc in a fair average requess
for our own fancy and coloured goods for the home trade'
With respect to goods, the accounts are (taking the sea'
into
son, the state of commercial feeling, and other things
consideration), decidedly better than last week. Fustian?,
we believe, remain dull of sale, though it is not probable
that will long be the case, the turn-out of the cutters being
nearly compromised by the somewhat tardy acquiescence
of the foreign houses, with few exceptions, in the advall:t.
they demanded. Of calicoes, there is nothing claiming c 7;
rect remark. Printing cloths, 7-Bths, are in good demand'
the manufacturers are not generally desirous to sell at Pre-
sent prices, they being considered scarcely remunerative.
There is little difficulty in selling good ginghams for borne
wear, nor handkerchiefs of the same material ; the weavers
of this branch are better employed than those Of

other at the present time. Prints are about as
were wont to be at this season ; little doing in that line ;
though prices are well maintained. Some very superior de'
signs are, we understand, in preparation for the sPricg
trade. Indeed, this art has attained a wonderful and Plea!:

DUNDEE.—The agitation which has for some time VI;
veiled in the south, has at length extended to this clue'eed
During the last few weeks several failures have occurr
here, and these have produced an injurious effect both nl)°,3f
trade and upon credit. We cannot hazard an estimate
the amount of failures ; but, in so far as we can learn, non
of the parties who have stopped payment were in first-rai;
credit, and no one possessed of actual property lins"rreeue
put to inconvenience for want of accommodation.
effects of the present agitation will doubtless be severeil
felt for some time by the trading and manufacturing classes;
but, with the exception of the markets in North America,
all the other outlets for our commodities continue unob;
strutted, and the demand for them in some quarters, by til
latest accounts, steadily extending. With such prospect?'
we see nothing in the present position of affairs to occasl°l
serious alarm. The unexampled increase of our trade, no—
facilities afforded for the operations of parties withoncti
the requisite capital or knowledge of business, have prepar3
the way for the reaction which is now experienced ; and :a
,
is fair to calculate that, when business shall have restnn e
its wonted and natural channel
its action will be ins
healthy and vigorous than it was before. By the failu k,
