STATE OF TRADE.
MANCHESTER, FEB. 20.—Tho diminished. aetiv,

in cotton, together with some liittle giving way
in its price, has rather cooled the excitement
which our market recently caught from that of
Liverpool, and manifested to the latter end of last
week. But beyond this, sad a slight moderating of ex-
cessive demands, as to prices, in some few articles, there
cannot be said to be any appearance of a retrograde move-
ment in yarns and goods. Sellers have lost little be-
sides a trifling excess of heat and animation; they con-
tinue firm, at the average quotations. Through
these circumstances, however, aided by the accounts
received this morning from the United States, which
add to the previous estimates of the cotton crop,
there has been an increased wariness on the part of
merchants, and the business of the day has, consequently,
been of limited amount. Goods have gone off rela-
tively better than yarns.
ROCHDALE, Firs. 19.—We have had a very good
demand again for flannels, and the manufacturers have
been asking better prices for their goods, in order to
meet the rise of the raw material. There has been
rather more doing in the wool market, and purchasers
have been obliged to give higher prices.
lIIIDDERSFIELD, FEB. 20.—Every description of
goods adapted for the forthcoming spring trade was
bought up within two hours after the opening of the
Cloth Hall. There was a large attendance of buyers,
and several lots of old patterns were purchased for
shipping orders. Not much has been done in new wools.
The great advance in price causes con:Womble circum-
VectieU amongst the hgluitAteturors.

_-`~~~`

HALIFAX, 17.—Both plain and farce good g
were very much in request in the Piece Hall today, but
not so many were disposed of as this day week. The
merchants zr.-,ze uuwilliug to give prices equal to the cur-
rent 01' yarn, and the manufacturers are reluctant
to scil or to take orders, except at a corresponding
advance. The spinners are still full of orders, and they
hold out stiffly for irnprovcd rates on all Lew orders.
Another rise has taken place in wool, and considerable
quantities are changing hands; but the spinners do not
willingly accede to the advanced prices.
LEEDS, FEB. 20.--Our market to-day has not pre-
sented, any new features; business continues sound, and
the improved tone holds good. Thera has been a good
deal doing in the warehouses these last few days; but
at the Cloth Halls very little, for reasons often alluded
to.—Alanchester Guardian.
