STATE OF TRADE.

LEEDS, May 24.—For a Tuesday's market there
has been a good attendance of buyers in the cleat
halls to-day, and a fair amount of business has been
done. Though light goods still sell well, there has
been more done in ordinary cloths to-day than of
late. Prices are firm, and the trade altogether is
not so well as it was a fortnight ago.
MANCHESTER, 24th.—We have had an improved
—indeed au almost extraordinary, demand for India
cloths tosday. in consequence of further private
telegrams from Calcutta, through Bombay, to Ain it
24, giving still better accounts of the state of trade
than were to hand last week. According to these
advices all sorts of manufactured goods had further
advanced in price under a large demand, with heal y
sales for arrival. This has led to a brisk trade here
in 40-inch shirtiugs, jacconets, and madapollamq.
These goods, which had yielded a little in pricelait
week, notwithstanding the favourable advices then
to hand, have rallied very decidedly in price to-day,
and close much firmer. The wider kinds of shit t-
ings for Calcutta, such as 45-inch fabrics and
upwards, have advanced considerably in value,
being very scarce, while the demand for them is
pressing. Figured shirtings for the same market
are also in fair demand. In other kinds of cloth,
whether for export or home demand, the market is
quite as fiat as it was last week, and prices were
again somewhat easier. The yarn market is much
the same as that for cloth. India Tarns arc in fair
demane. at last week's rates, in some cases rather
firmer. While the German buyers are out of the
market yarns for the home trade, for China, and for
the Mediterranean arc dull, and about. id. per lb.
cheaper than last Tuesday.
