STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, SEPT. 1.
Cotton has gone up fully id. per lb. since, Fri-
day, and the consequence has been a general ad•
'ante of prices here in both yarn and cloth. The
business done in cloths last week had the effect o
f
clearing out stocks very considerably, and we ba.vie
had less activity this morning ; but the market le
very firm, and where business has been done sellere
have obtained a further advance. For years there
has been a good demand from almost all quartet',
For India a fair business is reported in 40's mule'
and for Germany 15's to 30's water-twist have g°,,,71"
off well, the advance in all these kinds of toir
being id. to id. per lb. above this day vreei",
Shippers to Russia are also buyers of 30's Water'
twist and 40's mule at an advance of fully id.
home trade supply themselves with moderate free:
dom in most kinds of cops, and these spinniogl
are id. to id. dearer.
Messrs. John Slagg and Co. report :
" The active demand reported on Tuesday last C°11•
tinned throughout the week, and the market has bee°
pretty well cleared of stocks of nearly all kinds of good
in many instances at further advance on the prices tb,
current. Yesterday and to-day, owing partly to w,e
higher prices asked, and partly to the unfavourable 11;
counts from India' there has been less doing in ir°
for that quarter, but in other respect there is no chase,
and the market closes with an upward tendency."
LEEDS, SEPT. 11
The cloth halls have been attended by about P
average number of buyers this morning, and the
like may be said as to the amount of business done'
The tone of the market has been steady, and price'
are firm. Purchases have been confined chiefil to
the heavier kinds of cloths, and, though no very
large lots were bought, a good bulk in the egg„4"
gate changed hands, and the market, all thilir
considered, was a good one for the season.
HUDDERSFIELD, SEPT.
The market for cloth and other woollen fabille
to-day has been tolerably active, and was beture
than on this day week. Several purchasesa
made of the heavier kinds both for the home an
foreign markets. For the latter there was an
proved demand. Of the better as well as low goo:,
some fair sales were effected. Wool continue'
firm in price, but it has not advanced this week.'
