been so much inquiry as during last week, and very few
sales have been made—generally at previous rates.
ROCHDALE, MONDAY, JUNE 21.—We have had very
few buyers in the market to-day ; but though the busi-
ness done has been very limited, there is a better feeling
manifested, and more inquiry about goods. The wool
trade is still slack, and there has been very little done.
Prices have undergone little change since last Monday.
HALIFAX, SATURDAY, JUNE 19.—Although there
was no increase of business in the Piece
of Hall to-
day, yet there was a better attendance mer-
chants, and evidently an improved state of feeling.
The yarn market also presents a rather cheerful aspect;

between the grower and the spinner, the issue of which
altogether depends upon the result of the harvest

still in a languid state.—Manchester Guardian.

PAISLEY, JUNE 18.—Since the last trade report,
short as that time has been, it is gratifying to state that
a very favourable change has taken place. A consider-
able number of hands have been enaged these two days
past by several houses, and for various descriptions of
work. Among these are engagements for filled !thaw's,
wool tartan shawls, striped shawls, and different descrip-
tions of low, heavy printing cloth. The various parties en-
gaged in preparing fittings for these new goods are very
busy these two days, aid a general impression among
all parties seems to prevail that Lite crisis is ova, arA
that now more abundant employment will be
