ENGLISH WOOL, LEEDS, OCT. 17.--%Sales of combing
wool this week have been limited to a_4nipply of the im-
mediate,wants of the manufacturers. rrices are quoted
the same as last week.
LIVERPOOL WOOL, OCT. 16.—The imports the past
week consist of 58 bales East India, 2bB Oporto, 2,034
Alpaca, 430 Donskti, 112 'Mogadore, 24 Malta, 12
Smyrna, 168 Constantinople. Australian and fine wools
still active. Coarse and low wools remain quiet.
TRADE OF LEEDS.—WO have to report very dull
markets at our Cloth Halls, both on Saturday and Tues-
day, and the manufacturers complain that they cannot
obtain prices that will pay them at the present price of
wool; many are taking the prudent course, and are cur-
tailing their operations, A pretty fair amount of busi-
ness has been done in the warehouses during the week
by the London buyers; but there continues to be much
less business doing with the country drapers than usual
at this season.

TRADE OF LEICESTER.—A fair business continues to
be done both with the London and the country manu-
facturers, an increased demand being noticed in the re-
gular fashioned articles. Both the fancy hosiery and
the worsted glove branches are very active. Yarns re-
main without alteration, the lower qualities are very
little in demand for the season of the year. Wools re-
main stationary in the lower sorts, but the better quali-
ties are more in request.
BRADFOED LIAERET, OCT. 16.—W001--There is not
one ray of light towards an improvement in the
do-
mend for combed wools; every cue seems disposed to
buy only for day-by-day consumption, and if the re-
ports of the spinners be carried out, they are evidently
effecting such a curtailment as will greatly affect the
quantity consumed, and ere long lower prices will be
submitted to. The country dealers and growers may
hold out for high prices, but it is quite impossible to
realise them at the seat of manufacture. Neils and
brokes are firm at usual prices. Yarns—The disposi-
tion to diminish the quantity of yarns brought to market
is now being carried out in the town and neighbour-
hood; in short, throughout the whole worsted district
never were so many spinning frames totally stopped and
others put on short time, as has occurred during the
month of October. Great as the falling off in the de-
mand, and sacrifice in the price, has been, there is now
evidently as great a determination to bring only to
market what is required till prices shall assume that
point which will cover the cost for spinning. At pre-
sent the cost of the wool or top is not realised, so that
any further decline in price may not be expected.
Pieces—There is no improvement in the demand, nor
can we learn of any further falling off, but a great
diminution in the quantity making, The adoption of
this prudential course, with the moral certainty that any
change in the value of yarns must be in an ascending
direction, causes manufacturers to be determined not to
make to stock with a certain' loss before them, and if
there is any improvement in the demand the price of
goods will increase also.
TRADE OF MANCRESTER, OCT. 16.—There is very
little change in the market since Tuesday last. To-
day there has been rather more inquiry for India goods,
in anticipation of the overland mail, but prices continue
low, and very much depressed. In domestics, T. cloths,
printers and long-cloths, buyers appear to have orders
to place, but the American cotton market advises, and
the sympathy evinced in Liverpool with them, give
hopes of a further relaxation of prices, and this en-
courages a disposition to withhold all hut pressing busi-
ness. The same feeling influkucekthe rgßrket, and
is numbers both for export and home eainsumption there
is freedom enough from pressure to induce spinners to
take contracts at slightly more favourable rates,
