STATE OF TRADE.

ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, APRIL 9.—The
demand for wool this week has been steady, and prices
stationary.
FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, APRIL 9.—About an
average business has been done in foreign wool during
the past week, at recent rates.
WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, APRIL B.—Easter is
generally a holiday week, in which little business is
done, and we have no alteration to report from last
week.

LEEDS.—There has been some large deliveries of
goods direct from the makers this week, but entirely of
low qualities, for shipping ; but in the cloth-halls, both
on Saturday and Tuesday, although there was a little
more done in finer qualities, yet, on the whole, the
markets: were of the same dull character as of late.
Prices rule steady, and stocks are moderate. The cold
weather, and the lightness in the money market, keeps
the buyers from the market, and business has, in conse-
quence, been dull in the warehouses during the week.
BRADFORD MARKET, APRIL B.—There is more in-
quiry for wool, owing to the increased production of
yarns; but the spinners do not buy freely, as they anti-
cipate that the new clip will be purchased on easier
terms. Short wools are in good request. and, being
scarce, improve in price. The shipping houses are busy
exporting yarns, and numbers of the spinners are em-
ployed to order, at a slight advance in price; but the
advance is neither of moment, nor general enough to
render the trade profitable. B ,th, however, for home
and export trade, yarns are in fair request. There has
been an average market for dress piece goods, but we
can report no advance in price.
MANCHESTER, THURSDAY EVENING.—We have had 4
very little business transacted either in goods or yarns
since this day week, arising from the fact, that in gene-
ral neither manufacturers nor spinners will sell unless at
an advance equal to those on the staple. Time only can
determine which will first give way. The market
closes very firmly at the rates current this day se'nnight.
There are extensive orders from India and China, as
well as from America.

NOTTINGHAM.—No improvement can be reported as
to this market, either in sales or prices. The silk glove
branch is a shade better; the other branches are as pre-
viously stated.
LEICESTER.—The market continues in a very inani-
mate state, and with the exception of a few shipping
orders, there is little or nothing doing in either the
country or town trade. The hosiers, having worked up
their cotton stocks, are turning their attention to worsted
goods, and owing to the distressed state of the yarn
market, they are enabled to buy in for cash at extreme
low prices, though no reduction is professedly made by
the spinners. The American packet, due next week, is
expected to bring in large orders, and its arrival is
looked forwards to with anxiety. Woels keep their
prices, and seem likely to do so.—Leicester Journal.
