STATE or TRADE.—MANCHESTER, AUG. 21.—We
have had a firm and active market both in yarn and cloth.
The demand for printing cloths, narrow shirtings, long
cloths, and domestics continues to carry off the produce
without change of price. In India goods, including 40-inch
shirtings, madapolliims, and jaconots there has been an im-
provement both in price and demand. On the arrival of
letters by the Overland Mail buyers held aloof from the mar.
ket, showing no great anxiety to execute the orders re-
ceived, but the advance in the raw material at Liverpool
appears to have had an effect this morning, and they have
been buyers to a fair extent. 14Iobt kinds of goods suitable
to that market, however, being comparatively low, they have
not been able to supply themselves without yielding a slight
advance. In yarn of all description,, both suitable to the
home and foreign trade, there continues to be a good busi-
ness, and prices are hardening with the advance of the raw
material.

FOREIGN COINAGE....-LiCeD3ed victuallers, shop-
keepers, and the public in general, cannot be too particular
in looking at the silver they take, as in consequence of the
large number of foreigners at present in the metropolis on
a visit to the Crystal Palace, a vast quantity of francs, ten
sous, and five sous pieces, are in circulation, as well as many
other foreign coins, which pass off very easily for shillings,
sixpences, and iourpenny pieces, if taken in a hurry, and are
a loss to the receiver, and trouble of getting exchanged.
