STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, TUESDAY, AUGUST 17.—There was
no important change in the market to day. Perhaps,
on the whole, a little more inquiry for yarn on Rus-
sian account ; and some extent of business would
probably have been done for that market, if spinners
would have made a single concession in price. The
firmness of the Liverpool cotton market, however,
tends to keep up prices here ; and the business done
was generally at the rates current last week. The
goods market was without change. The demand
continues on the very lowest scale; but prices are
pretty firmly maintained for almost all descriptions
of cloth. We understand that the closing of mills,
and the working of short time, are extending at Pres-
ton ; but we have not heard of the example being
followed in other quarters.
ROCHDALE, MONDAY, AUGUST 16.--There has
been a better demand for pieces to-day, and consider-
ably more business transected than on the previous
Monday. Prices have undergone no change since last
week. The wool market continues inactive, and prices
are firm.
HALIFAX, SATURDAY, AUG. 14.—The attendance
in the piece hall continues very slack, and but few
goods change hands, the derangement in the money
market having had a decided tendency to prevent the
improvement which had been expected. The same
cause had checked the demand for yarn, which had
been improving ; and there is no variation in price.
The market is better supplied with long wool, but
the short stock in the consumers hands leads to a
tolerably ready sale, though the price demanded
scarcely rules as high as was looked fur. In short
wools there is no alteration to notice.
HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY, AUG. 17.—There is
but little alteration from last week's report. There
are a few foreign buyers in the market, but on the
whole there is but little disposition to purchase until
the result of wool sales is known. For fine qualities
of wool there is a tendency upwards.
LEEDS, TUESDAY, AUG. 17.—Our market to-day
wore the usual appearance. There was rather more
inquiry for low black cloth, and cloakings also con-
tinue in good request. In prices no variation what-
ever has taken place.—Manchester Guardian.
