PARIS, July 10.

The Constitutionnel of this morning says
" The Counsellors of the Crown are discussing the
question whether it would be advisable to reply to
the interpellations which have been announccd,and
thereby divulge the programme of the Govern-
ment. No decision oa this point has yet been ar-
rived at, and therefore yesterday's report of the in-
tentions of the Government are premature."

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, July B.—The market is even
quieter to-day than on Tuesday. This is partly due
to the arrivals in the Mersey of overdue cotton, of
which 32,000 bales came into port yesterday'
and 21,000 bales this morning. It is al's°
due in part to the continued failures. The anS"
pension is announced of Mr. Burne, of Brindet
Preston, in addition to those of Mr. G. Sa
of Inver-bank Mill, and Messrs. Jackson. They
are all large manufacturers as well as spin
i
ners, the machinery of the three mills consisting
The
market spindles, and nearly 2,000 looms. The
market is slightly but very little easier under these
circumstances, but buyers of cloth do not hesitate
so much owing to prices as from the circum-
stances that, besides having lately purchased
largely from stock, they have a good many WI
tracts placed in the hands of manufacturers for
future delivery. It is hardly expected that cotton
o
will be much cheaper, though the price may b
affected a little temporarily by the heavy arrivals
of cotton. The prospects of a future supply of cotte
are unpromising, and the quantity is likely to be
inadequate for some time to come. Spinners LI
manufacturers here and on the Continent are a gef.s
deal disappointed at the little progress made in tic!
respect since the close of the American civil war
It was thought that nearly all cotton-producing
countries would make an effort that would s°°o
make up the deficiency of supply when certain °.'„
market, but India and North and South merle;
tb
which were mainly depended upon as the thro,
principal sources of supply, appear to have retr
e
graded rather than advanced, and the m5llO in
United States, like those in Europe, have been ice
able to keep their mills going full time at the Par
of
to which cotton has risen. We scarcely lay /3°l, of
a trade circular in which the inadequate OW/
cotton is not adverted to.

BRADFORD, Bth.—The wool market has 11 A.
gone no appreciable change during the wee'l, in
steady consumptive demand is still going n'tio,
wool, and the transactions are, on the whole, sent,
factory. There is no speculative feeling arTactual
and spinners are only just replenishing for the a de-
orders taken. There is great languor in tepro
mand for alpaca, and mohair continues ye* ,ocico
in prices. In the worsted yarn branch the sr: for
of spinners are lower than they have be: tionS
some time past, and an advance of (111,..().35i0eas
has been made. There is still a steady ullyoor
doing on home account. The season is P'
ave
able for the piece trade, and manufacturer! Pro of
booked a fair amount of orders. Some rnal'e oto
of plain goods have lately entered into co'itago,
that will keep them fully employed for a c°l3
able time. Several foreign buyers have been io. aro
market, and operated to some extent. Stoes7.,ool
rather on the decrease, and prices following 'co,
and cotton are extremely firm. Manufacatlaraa.
however, find greater difficulty in realising
vance.
