'THE CLOTHING MANUFACTURES.
WOOL TRADE.—Lownox APRIL 3.—The market,. has
been very quiet, and the supply is on the increase. The im-
ports of wool into London during the week ending to-day have
been 1,479 bales, of which 1,094 were from Van Diemen's
Land, 114 from Sydney, 110 from Italy, 114 from Bombay,
and two from the Cape of Good Hope.
FOREIGN WOOL, LEEDS, Aram 4.—The demand for
foreign and colonial wool during the past week has been much
the same as last reported. Prices also may be quoted without
alteration.
ENGLISH WOOL, APRIL 4.—There has been rather more
inquiry for wools during the present week, and prices may be
quoted as stationary. The sales have been limited to the im-
mediate requirements GAF trhßeu 3.

BRADFORD 11ARKET, APRIL 3.--Wools
There Is a greater
degree of anxiety to sell wool prior to show to-day,
but so de-
pressed are the spirits of the spinners owing to their ruinous
avocation, that they are indisposed to

sales effected
are very trifling. Neils and broker are without change. Yarns
—The complainings of the spinners are best exemplified by the
fact of their continuing to curtail the production by their fur-
ther stoppage of spinning frames; as the' price of yarns CO M.,
