foot, accompanied by a dense crowd of persons, and proceeded
to the mess-room, where a handsome entertainment was pre-
pared, and where his Lordship repeated some encomiastic ex-
pressions highly gratifying to Colonel M‘Gregor, and the
officers, as connected with the excellent state of discipline to
which the regiment had arrived. Lord Hill, after a short
time, quitted here for Dover, where he reviewed the 73d
depot the same day.

( Fiom the Limerick Chronicle.)

STATE OF TRADE.

THE WOOL TRADE.—The result of the approaching sales
of Colonial and other descriptions of Wool is looked for with
increased interest, owing to the general state of the Wool and
Woollen markets. We are informed that a good deal of ac-
tivity is manifested in the manufactured articles, and that this
will lead the importers of Wools to be firm in their demands.
Some additions have been made to the declaration of Wools
for public sales on the 12th of the coming month, and for
several days afterwards ; and some parties appear to think
that from 9,000 to 10,000 bales will be offered during the
sales referred to. The arrivals from our colonies of New
South Wales and Van Diemen's Land continue large, as well
as from Germany. The quantity entered at the Custom-house
in the week ending to-day, of Van Diemen's Land Wools, to
792 bales ; from New South Wales, to 250 bales. The arrivals
from Germany, in the same period, have been 416 bales. An
arrival is also announced of Spanish Wool, of 45 bales ; of
Russian, 50 bales ; and of Cape Wools 125 bales ; making a
total of I,67B—Leeds Mercury.
THE LEEDS TRADE.—In consequence of the bad weather,
there was but a very limited supply of fresh made goods at
flip cloth-halls on Saturday and Tesday last, from which cir-
cffinstance there was rather less business done. The demand,
however, was quite equal to the supply. Business continues
progressively to improve in the warehouses.—lbid.
BEDFORD, THURSDAY.—There has not been much alteration
in our market to-day, compared with last week. The. manu-
facturers are still obliged from the continued high price of the
raw material, to urge a further advance; but we understand
the merchants generally are indisposed to give it ; indeed we
are informed that some have declared.they would rather lose
sales than risk holding a stock at a further advance During.
the last two months, the stocks of finished goods in the hands
of merchants have been considerably diminished, and the pro-
spect of a good autumn trade was probably never more favour-
able than at present, did not the high price of wool threaten
to retard, or altogether limit the transactions in our market.
We are unable to report any improvement in the yarn market
today; there :is a considerable demand for yarns, but the
prices obtained are extremely low when compared with the con-
tinued high price of wool. Fine yarns are almost unsaleable.
We hear that one of the most respectable firms in the town
have commenced running their machinery only five days a
week, which must be the case with other spinners very soon,
unless they can obtain an advance in the prices of yarns, or
wools should become lower. Fine wools are scarce, with a
little improvement in price. The transactions in wool this
week have been small ; what few sales have been effected are
at a reduction from the prices that were obtained a few weeks
ago. There is a disposition on the part of the staplers to re-
duce their stocks, which is rendered difficult by the extreme
caution of the manufacturers in purchasing.—lbid.
HALIFAX.—There was a good attendance of buyers at this
market last Saturday, who • purchased stuffs with considerable
freedom,
vance in price. This improvement in the demand for pieces
was principally occasioned by the arrival of a few extensive
orders from Germany, which have been postponed during the
last three months, on account of the fluctuating state of our
markets ; but since prices have become pretty stable, and are
considered to be nearly fixed for the succeeding three months,
the orders have been given. In wool there was no material
alteration, and the only variation observable was, that the
woolstaplers asked higher prices for hogs, but we believe there
was very little advance obtained.
HUDDERSFIELD, Tuesday.—We are glad to find that the
demand for goods continues steady, though we believe the
profits are low. There has been a considerable quantity of
business done to-day, but the purchases are made with great
caution, and there appears to be no speculation going on.
- THE BLANKET TRADE.—The blanket trade continues pretty
brisk yet at Earlsheaton and Dewsbury ; the goods are prin-
cipally for the American trade, the orders for which came in
later than usual this year.
