STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Leeds Mercury of Saturday.)

I.cEps.—The marhets at both our cloth hails have been
slacker during the past week thbn they hive been or late.
This nay; more partierl lrly the case on Tuesday ; treods,
however, remain steady in price, and from the long-conti-
nued brisk demand which has been in operation since tile
commencement of the year, the stocks of goods on hand
5..-ongst the manufacturers are much lower than Las
been the eaz,..• at this season. • Business continues
much the ,;yale state as for tome time past in the ware-

!louses.
IT.t7DPErs':inr.LP, MAY 'O.—Tl:cre continues to be a
brisk demand for fancy woollens, particularly for pbet.'-ed
kerseylncres, in new 'patter . .
ns. In pther descriptions of

:voollens dime is not so much activity.
BE A DroRD, MAY 12.—The demand for' sk-quarter
pieces continues quite as brisk as for some weeks past. Al!
other descriptions of manufactured goods remain witLot.it
any quotable variation from our recent reports. There Is
no perceptible difference in the yarn market since last
week ; and our remarks then are very PPPlieoble to tin
state of trade here to-day. We beg to rcfcr nnr.friencis !c)
the report of last week's wool market. All we m say is,
that things are not worse in this market.
Yor.x, lil.—To-day has been our first Wool
Market for the seaFon ; but little wool has been shown t
consequenre of the late severe cold weather, which bus so
nmeh retarded the sheep shearing. We had few of the
principal hovers from the manufacturing dist ricts in attend,
ince ; there have been but few Sales rirldo,
and at price%
dul the vrewerg, who in con.
l from what was anticipated by
f:cquence hold over. For all hog wool 19d. to 19 Vg half
hog and ewe 17d. to 17id.; all 1-
ewe oL, per lb.
