TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR-I beg you to give a place in your columns to the
expression of the gratitude of a Polish Refugee, unable to
repay in any other manner the benevolence, and kind services
of one of your countrymen. I was seized on the 29th of
November last with a serious nervous complaint, the most
horrid convulsions ; indeed, in a torpor which appeared to
be death itself. Mr. Teevan, surgeon, 3, Union-place,
Lambeth, at the request of one of my countrymen, came
immediately, at four o'clock in the morning, then at six in
the same morning, and continued to do so many times, in
day time and at night, during my illness, giving me every
thing, and persisting in his humane task (although I re-
quested him to desist, as I could not afford to pay him), till
he saw me quite recovered. By inserting this letter in your
Paper, you will confer on me the greatest favour I can re-
ceive ; and I beg you to believe me, with respect and grati-
tude, Sir, your humble and obedient servant,
DIEUDONE BOBIJ DE KERNELIN,
Marquis de Grandville.

STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Leeds Mercury of Saturday, Dec. 17.)
THE LEEDS TRADE.—:Although the cloth markets have
been dull, as they usually are at this season, there have,
nevertheless, been more goods sold during the past week
than some weeks ago. Prices continue firm, and the stocks
in the hands of the manufacturers are not materially larger
than they have generally been at this period of the year.
There has also been a little more doing in the warehouses
during the week than for some weeks past.
HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, DEC. 13.—There has been
about the average quantity of business done in the cloth
hall. The amount of transactions in wool has been much
larger than for several weeks past.
BRADFORD MARKET, DEC. 13.—The manufacturers
say they have had more lookers to day in the Piece Market,
and rather more business has been transacted. The business
in the yarn market is considerable ; and there appears to
be more confidence in the buyers. The spinners, owing
to the state of the wool market, are firm to their prices, and
are asking an advance, finding that wool still keeps up, and
yarn at its present prices not affording a remuneration, un-
less more can be obtained ; it is, therefore, expected by
some that the price of yarn will improve. We can report
no alteration in the wool market this week. For most
sorts there has been a fair inquiry, and considerable busi-
ness has been transacted. Wethers and wether matchings
continue scarce.

ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, DEC. 18.—The market
has been rather dull, and the goods sold have been at prices
somewhat lower than those of the previous week. Wool
has maintained its price to-day, and, in some cases, a few
shillings per pack more have been obtained. At this time
of the year the flannel business is generally dull, the winter
orders being chiefly executed by the beginning of December.
The last year was an exception, the trade being brisk through
the whole of the winter. At present, though the stocks on
hand are very light, many of the manufacturers are not
giving out full work, on account of the many countermanded
orders, and the very prevalent expectation that wool will be
lower in price. It will yet admit of a considerable reduc-
tion, for pieces are selling for seven or eight shillings a couple
less at the present time than they were six or seven weeks.
since. The flannel business is greatly on the increase in
this town. There are at present no fewer than three wool-
len factories building, two of which are nearly ready for
machinery ; these will occasion an increased demand for
labour, though all hands are now pretty well employed.
WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, DEC. 16.—We cannot
report any alteration in the state of either the long or short
wool market this week. In long wool we have few fresh
arrivals, in consequence of the inadequate price of hogs,
compared with the price held out for by the growers, and
wethers continuing as scarce as ever, few sales are passing.

LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, DECEMBER 17.
We have experienced a good demand for Cotton, and a decided
improvement in the tone of the market this week. Surats and
Pernams continue to be taken more freely, and an advance of Md.
per lb. is readily obtained. Common Egyptian and ordinary. Ame-
rican are more saleable at improving pr►ces, but new Boweds and
Orleans are offered freely at 4d. per lb. decline. Speculators have
taken 1,000 bales of American and 500 Surat, and exporters 600
Surat, 80 Bengal, and 150 American. 400 Bahias are declared for
auction on Friday next. The imports are 14,540 from the United
States, and 715 from Egypt ; total, 15,255. The sales of the week
are—
