STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, TUESDAY, JAN. s.—Although there is
little change in the market this week—the demand con-
tinuing extremely languid—buyers have shown a little
more disposition to accede to the terms demanded by the
spinners and manufacturers. The business done, how-
ever, is small in amount, and in goods, especially, con-
fined to the supply of immediate wants. We do not
hear anything new in reference to the working of short
time; but the stoppage of the mills for a week or ten
days at Christmas was very general.
ROCHDALE, MONDAY, JAN. 4.—There has been a
quiet market to-day, with but a limited demand fur
goods. Very little was done in wool, as the dealers are
asking higher prices, and the manufacturer cannot get a
proportionate advance upon his goods. Next Monday
will be the new market.

HALIFAX, SATURDAY, JAN. 2. —The new year has
opened with much of the dulness that characterised the
latter markets of its predecessor ; and it is generally
thought that the continually advancing prices of provi-
sions tend to protract to a greater distance the period of
a revival. But few pieces have changed hands in the
hall to-day, arid prices remain unimproved. The return
of open weather has brought the Continental buyers
into the yarn market, for a few jobs, at below cost price;
but, in other respects, the trade continues without alter-
ation. Owing to the stimulus of the late advance, short
wool has been more in demand, and the increased price
has been obtained ; but the trade is by no means brisk.
HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY, JAN. s.—There has been a
considerable business done to-day in light goods, for the
spring trades. Good blues continue in demand, and
several orders have been given for broads of that colour
to our manufacturers.

LEEDS, TUESDAY, JAN. 4.—Although very few goods
changed hands at our cloth-halls to-day, the improved
tone of the market is not impaired ; since, according to
report, some extensive orders for low cloths have been
received, which cannot but act favourably on the state
of trade.

SENIOR WRANGLERSIIIP.—We understand that St.
John's College is expected to carry off the honour of the
Senior Wranglership this year.—Cambridge Advertiser.

DESTRUCTION OF THE DEE MILLS AT CHESTER.—
A fire of a most alarming and destructive nature, in-
volving the loss of a serious amount of property, broke
out on Wednesday morning, in the centre of a lofty
range of building, known by the name of the Dee Mills.
These premises, which are situate on, and attached to,
the west side of the old Dee-bridge, are used as corn-
mills, and are in the several occupations of Messrs.
Gamon, Palin, and Moss. The mills were originally of
great antiquity, having been in existence as early as the
year 1119, when they belonged to the Crown, who
granted them to Sir Richard Cotton, in whose family
we believe they still remain. The fire was discovered
about two o'clock by the driver of a coach returning with
a party from the Infirmary ball, held last night at the
Albion Hotel. The man instantly gave the alarm,
aroused the workmen, and in a very short space of time
two of the city engines were on the spot ,and commenced
playing upon the devouring element, which had already
spread through the whole of the centre compartment oc-
cupied by the Messrs. Palin. Shortly afterwards two of
the county engines arrived from the Castle, manned by
an effective body of the Royal Artillery, under the com-
mand of Major Robe, and a detachment of the 90th Regi-
ment, under Nlajor Eyles. As it was soon found to be
utterly impos3ible to stem the current of destruction,
which had now fairly set in upon the central ware-
house, the exertions of the firemen were directed to the
preservation of the adjoining premises. Every room was
filled with grain to the very roof, and it is a melancholy
fact that scarcely a single bag has been rescued uninjured
from that portion of the pile which was the scene of the
conflagration. Shortly before three o'clock Major-
General Sir Wm. Warre, the officer commanding the
district, arrived and rendered his valuable assistance,
but only just in time to see the massive roof fall in with
a tremendous crash, presenting a scene at once awful
and magnificent. The flames, which had now demo-
lished every obstacle, rushed upwards with terrific fury,
illuminating the city and neighbourhood for miles
round. At the time of writing, the outer walls are all
that is now standing, and these are momentarily ex-
pected to fall. Considerable fears have been and are
still entertained for the safety of the adjoining ware-
houses, but up to the present moment, owing principally
to the great strength of the connecting walls, they are
comparatively speaking unscathed. That portion of the
premises which
are

y
Fire-office, and we believe that the usrtoeckisalsCooupar-
tially insured ; the other two warehouses at present un-
hurt are likewise protected by the Atlas and Norwich
Union Offices. These mills have been twice the victims
of a like calamity within the last 57 years, having been
totally destroyed by fire on the 26th of Sept., 1789, and
again in March, 1819. The loss sustained by the pre-
sent fire is supposed to be about 8,0004
