STATE OF TRADE.

MANCIIESTETt, June 10.—The market is quiet
both in yarns and cloths. Buyers decline to follow
the advancing prices which sellers are compelled to
demand in consequence of dearer cotton, and con-
fine their orders to quantities sufficient to cover
pressing necessities. Price, however, continue
firm. The suspension was mentioned on the Ex-
change to-day of an old-established firm
of good repute hitherto—Messrs. Livesey
and Thorpe. Messrs. Livesey and Thorpe are
cloth agents in Manchester, cotton brokers at
Liverpool, and are extensive cotton spinners and
manufacturers at Blackburn. It appears that the
affairs of the firm in Manchester were in a sound
state, and that it is the affairs of the Liverpool
house that have involved the firm. The liabilities
are said to be about £300,000. Messrs. Felix,
Leach, and Co., spinners and manufacturers, are
also reported as having stopped payment, with lia-
bilities amounting to £30,000. Both firms are
highly respected in the neighbourhood, and until
this announcement were supposed to be in a pros-
perous and wealthy position.
BRADFORD, 10th.—A rather firmer tone pervades
the wool-market today. This arises not from more
business being done, but from the firmness of the
country markets. Still in the present uncertainty
as to business and prices spinners are quite indis-
posed to operate beyond the most pressing require-
ments. Purchases are still confined to the best
lustre and demi-lustre wools. Prices generally are a
shade firmer. There is rather more inquiry in worsted
yarns, but there is no appreciable increase of business.
Continental merchants still make offers, but they
are so low that they are seldom accepted. A steady
business continues to be done on home account,
particularly in lustre and coloured wefts. Prices
continue firm. No change can be reported in the
piece trade. If anything there is a quieter feeling,
though there is no want of confidence. The reduc-
tion in the Bank rate of discount has tended in some
measure to reassure.

LADvErtnsEmENT.l—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
Better than a Fortune.— The study of diseane, its causes,
and a perpi tual search for its remedies have anxiously
engaged the attention of philosophers from time imme-
morial. Yet this grand discovery was reserved for Hollo-
way. His purely vegetable extracts can be safely and
effectively used by all persons suffering from external or
internal ailments. The directions wrapped found every
of of Ointment and every box of Pills are amply suffi-
cient to guide the most diffident and encourage the most
timid. t% hen illness makes its appearance, and remedies
are eagerly sought after, none will be found more effectual
than Holloway's in alleviating and assuaging the pains of
the diseased and afflicted ; both Ointment and Pills purify
and preserve.
