STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Leeds Mercury.)
LEEDS.—This week there has not been quite so brisk $
demand for the finer qualities of goods at our cloth-halls, but
in low qualities and in heavy winter goods there has been
fully as much business done as of late. Business also cow
tinues in much the same state in the warehouses as for son►°
time past.
... _

BRADFORD MARKET, THURSDAY.—The yarn market CO''
tinues in much the same state as -our late numbers have re-
ported it. We notice a little more eagerness to purchase,
where it can be done on lower terms ; but the spinners are
indisposed to submit to a reduction, as at the present prices
of wool they cannot spin yarn for less with profit. There are
no new features in the piece-market to-day as contrasted
with our report during the last three or four weeks. The
demand for fancy goods and plain cloth for printing is UI
abated, and in other descriptions an average amount of bus"
ness has been done. Prices generally remain firm.
HALIFAX MARKET, SATURDAY. —We have had a dull market
for pieces to-day. Few buyers have attended, and veryf"r
goods have exhanged hands ; in prices there is no alteration.
Our yarn market, too, is dull, manufacturers not giving orders
freely, although the offers to them are on rather better terrns•
In wools there is not an average business doing; consume.
buy sparingly, expecting that the dull state of the piece market
will force down prices a little. The difference in price tit.
week is not quotable. Middle wethers remain at 151. per pac",,
MANCHESTER, FRIDAY..—A full amount of business has bee
done this week in all kinds of grey cloth; but without any
teration in prices except in domestics, for which, by 543°3, _
manufacturers, rather less has been taken. In finished pool
people are busy, and there is every prospect of a continua:o
demand.
YORK WOOL MARKET, AVG. 30.—Our market has
well attended by buyers to-day, and a considerable quaogi.
of business has been done, with no material alteration of prices,
Half hog and ewe, 15d. to 16d. ; ewe, 130. to 14d. ; 1"k

versal satisfaction among all classes in the city.
HOP INTELLIGENCE.--WORCESTER, AUG. 31'
—Our market on Saturday last was very quick for all desair
tions of Worcester Hops, which, when offered for sale, were
readily bought up at from 4s. to ss. per cwt. advance on
preceding market prices ; so unfavourable was then the weather;
being rainy and cold north winds (which had been more
cle
less the case throughout the week), that bets were Ina,e
against the plantation paying 3,000/. duty. On Sunday th
weather took a suitable turn to hot sun and warm nights, vale,
has continued very favourable for the young Hop up to the et
es
sent period, and has operated fully as much to lower Prict.,
this week as last did to raise them on our market. The duds
is supposed to reach 7 or 8,0001., as many favourable Pr
that escaped the blight, are kind, and appear to be groriirt
6or 7 cwt. to the acre. Prices—low qualities, 635. to 7°9";
useful, 70a. to 755. ; fine, 84s. to 955. per cwt. ; Yearling

50s. to 68s.— Worcester Herald.
About a fortnight ago, a man named Kerrogan, re;
siding in Pleasance, wbo was employed as a labourer, anst
also a pension of 7d. a-day, deserted a family of five cbilar;ot
t le eldest of whom was only nine years of age, and the Youtistbe
an infant. Their mother died about two months ago i°,,.,"ut
Royal Infirmary, and the father left them in the house wit'hwe
a morsel of bread, and without a bed to lie on. Since !Pia
some benevolent neighbours had given the poor things
occasionally, until Saturday night, when one of them rePro
sented the case to the police office, where the children wed
taken under protection, and next morning sent to the House
Refuge.—Edribtirgh Courant.
