STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian.)
MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—Relieved from the mo-
netary pressure which was lately forcing down the
price of cotton, the Liverpool market has been regain-
ing some degree of firmness during the last week or
two. The sales of yesterday were 10,000 bales, in-
cluding 4,000 on speculation ; prices generally being
rather higher—in many instances id. per lb.—than
those of Friday last, making the recovery about id.
in the fortnight. Although there is no dis-
position amongst the buyers in this place
to go along with any such movement as might
easily be excited among our neighbours, and although
the spinners are prepared to abstain from purchasing,
if need he, and rest upon their now ample supplies,
yet the improving tendency in the raw material exer-
cises a certain degree of influence upon our very bare
market, slightly affecting the buyers, as well as the
sellers, so as to aid the large existing demand in im-
parting a slow yet perceptible upward bias to the
prices of our productions. Mainly from such demand,
we have had a pretty general hardening to-day in the
prices of yarns. Warps have gained a clear 111 per
Pound, and in pin-cop weft there is a little advantage
on the side of the producer. The accounts received
this morning from Germany show an improving state
of trade, which is enabling the manufacturers to lessen
their stocks ; and the consequence is, that the mer-
chants are more inclined to operate than they were ;
and water twist, in 014 bundle, cannot be had at the
rates of last week. In goods here continues to be a
steady demand for long cloths, T's, and domestics ;
also for 36-inch and light jth printers; while the
finer iths are beginning to be wanted. But goods
and yarns adapted to the Indian trade have been neg-
lected, yet unchanged in
price. The letters by the
overland mail state that the sales
ofpiece goods had
been extensive at Calcutta, but, from the pressure of
exceedingly heavy imports,
ruinously low prices had
been submitted to—ruinous compared with those at
which they were sent out, though fair, looking at
what they may now be replaced tor. In China trade
is seriously threatened by political disturbances.
HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—We have hai another slack
day in our piece hall, and the warehouses are by no
means busy. In yarns and long wool we cannot
quote any alteration; and the only article which can
be said to manifest any firmness is short wool, the
production of which is materially curt iiled.
ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—We have had a fair busi-
ness doing in flannels, notwi:hstanding• the wakes are
held to-day, when all the mills end factories are stand-
ing, and a number of buyers generally absent them-
selves. The manufacturers have purchased wool very
sparingly, and
the dealers have held out for good
prices.

MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—Our manufactured
goods trade remains iu an extremely unsatisfactory
state; the over—wrought anticipation indulged in by

LONDON,

our manufacturers during the last few months of a good I
demand for spring goods, Itai proved io delu lye that
it has produced the effect of suspending fora time tie
prtiparations which ritually at this period ore being
vigorously pushed on for the autumnal trade. In
thrown silk very little is doing ; the few transactions
taking place are simply for present and urgent re-
quirements,
but have no bearing whatever on the
general tone of the market, which at present, as re-
gards
prices, is good.
HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.--The market to day
has been a slight improvement upon last Tuesday.
Still there has not been that activity and briskness in
the transactions that is customary at this period of
the year, when the trade is considered to be in a
healthy state. The goods in derailed are of a low
quality, and such as will leave neither manufacturer
and merchant any large amount of remuneration or
profit. A fair business has been done in the wool
warehouses, at improved prices.
LEEDS, TUESDAY.—The markets at the cloth halls
to-day have been rather dull, but on Saturday last a
fair business was done. The manufacturers are pretty
well employed, and prices continue very firm. Busi-
ness in the warehouses is quiet, compared with the
I last few weeks.
