STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, JULY 7.—Since the middle of last
week, some of the home trade houses have been buying
goods rather more freely than before; but the com-
parative absence of shipping demand keeps the market
quiet. Prices are, on the whole, well sustained. In the
yarn market there has been little demand, and prices
are not quite so firm.
ROCHDALE, JULY 6:—There has been an extremely
dull market today; few buyers have attended, and
those few have purchased sparingly. The wool market
has been much the same as that on the preceding
Monday.
HUDDERSFIELD, JULY 7.—There is considerable im-
provement in our market to•day. We have had a good
attendance of buyers, and many sales might have been
effected, had the manufacturers been inclined to make
concessions; but as the stocks are low, there is no in-
ducement to sell until remunerative prices can be ob.
tained.

LEEDS, JULY 7.—Althotigh no actual improvement
has, taken place as yet in our markets, a decidedly better
feeling, indicative of confidence, is daily gathering
strength; and, from the total absence of every political
excitement, as well as from the cheering prospects of a
good harvest, we may safely infer that a good business
is close at hand. The reduced tariff on broad cloths by
Russia cannot fail to prove beneficial to our manufac-
turers, and it is looked upon as a precursor of further
measures condemnatory of restrictions in trade.—Man-
chester Guardian.

CORONER'S INQUESTS.
On Tuesday, Mr. W. Baker, the Deputy-Coroner, held
an inquest at the London. Hospital, on the body of Mary
Ann Dee, aged sixteen, the young woman who lost her
life by jumping out of window, at the fire which occurred
on Saturday morning last, at the premises of Mr. Powell,
King's-place, Commercial-road East. One of the house-
surgeons said, that deceased was admitted at an early
hour on" Saturday morning last, with a fracture of the
skull, which was so severe that the brain was forced
through the ear. She survived till Monday morning.
Mrs. Rosin& Powell said that the deceased was her ser-
vant. She slept in the top room of witness's premises.
On the morning of Saturday last, about a quarter-past
two o'clock, witness was alarmed by hearing the deceased
screaming violently. On opening her bedroom, witness
found that the house was on fire. Deceased was at
that time on the upper landing. She called to the
deceased to come down, but she replied, " Oh, I can-
not." At that time there was very little smoke in wit-
ness's room, but she supposed that deceased's room
was filled with smoke, from herhaving slept with thedoor
cpen. Witness, her husband, and child, got out of the
first floor front, and by walking along the ledge over the
shop front, escaped. A ladder was called for, but before
it could be adjusted, the deceased threw herself out of
the window. On leaving the premises, witness found
that the place was all on fire at the back. She did not
knowor rahositvth: fire occurred. There was a great quan-
tityiienclts. Nearly
the bacl
the wholecellars, of
used
thefor p
packingretyper
earthenware art
was destroyed. It was insured, but not to the full value.
—Mr. H. Powell slid that a neighbour brought a ladder
to the premises, which was too short to reach the
top
floor, in which deceased was. Whilst he was fixing it
on the ledge over the shop, deceased threw herself out
asid fell on the foot .pavement.- He could not tell- how
the fire occurred.—ln answer to a Juror, it was stated
that the nearest fire-esoape W 45 Statloned at Aldgate, too

great a distance off to have been of any assistance,"
Verdict, " Accidental death."
The same Coroner afterwards held an inquest at the
same place, on the body of David Bates, aged seyo
years. Emma Robvrts, of 14, Crown-court, Whit,e;
chapel, said that the dcomsed was in the care or
grandmother, who livid next door to witness. On t,°(l
;
morning of Saturday last, about two o'clock, the el3l'st
attractea the attention of witness, by screaming Who
violently. On going out to ascertain the cause, s.
found the deceased's clothes in a general blaze, the
ld
at the time wes rolling itself on a bed in which a fell° ef
lodger was sleeping. Witness procured a couple 4
pails of water, which she threw over the bed and
and by that means succeeded in getting the fire 0011:
guished. The deceased was taken by witness to the
above hospital. The grandmother at the time wasi,li
the court, in a state of intoxication. Had it not beeel°l
witness's arrival at the house of deceased, she belied'
that the lodger woWd also have perished, for the Oil
was filled with smoke, and the woman appeared neell
suffocated. Verdict, " Accidental death," and the Jul
requested the Coroner to censure the gross conduct t'r
the grandmother, for leaving the deceased unproteeteu
at that early hour of the morning.
