STATE OF TRADE.—MANCHESTER, Aug.l9.—The
market is quiet, but with a rather better feeling than on
Tuesday, and some business has been done for China and
India. A telegram from Bombay brings rather better
accounts, but most of the buyers seem disposed to await the
arrival of their letters. For Germany and the continent
there is not much business. Fine and double yarns are
firm. The lower and middle counts have undergone no
change. The majority of spinners being well under con-
tract manifest no great desire to press sales. The middle
counts of yarns are rather easier in price. The supply of
printing cloths still falls below the demand, and prices are
very firm. Longcloths and T-clothe are steady in price,
with only a moderate inquiry,
