STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, Dec. 17.—There has been great
anxiety since the arrival of the Message of the Pre-
sident of the United States, and in the present un-
certainty with regard to our relations with that
country our market to-day has almost been in a
state of panic. An impression prevails that we are
again "drifting into war," and everything is un-
settled. Prices are considerably lower for cloth
than they were last week, and there is a complete
absence of business. This applies to cloth gene-
rally, In yarns there has been very little business,
and the prices of these have suffered rather more
than those of cloth. Some spinners are rather
more anxious for orders than others. Prices are
not quoted lower generally, but they are practi-
cally so, and some kinds are decidedly weaker.
Buyers say that they have had offers of home trade
yarns at d. to id. lower, and of export twist et Ad.
to id. per lb. From the returns of the Chief Con-
stable of Manchester it appears that the number of
people out of work has slightly increased, but the
number on short time has somawhat decreased,
being 10,500 against 12,600. This report was made
before the present panic in the market, and there is
reason to fear that cur operative classes will have
to suffer great privations this Christmas, if the dis-
couragements of spinners and manufacturers should
continue, as there is every probability they will.
ROCHDALE, Dec. 16th.—The wool and flannel
trades have worn a very quiet aspect to-day. The
business done was of a rnergre character, and was
mostly for immediate delivery. Speculation is
quite in abeyance, and will remain so till the
answer of the Government of the Federal States of
America to the message from England be received.
Yorkshire goods are in moderate request. Upon
the whole wools are firm in price.
