SPAIN.

The Heraldo of Madrid of the 27th ult.? says that
the Government has taken the measures necessary for
the payment of the instalment of the month of July
to the active classes of creditors. A royal decree
makes some changas in the department of the Ministry
of Finanee; which is charged to keep the public ac-
c,3unts. M. Maneses de Britodorio, who was con-
veying the ratification of the postal treaty between
Spain and Portugal to Madrid, died suddenly in the
mail near Baii?joz.

POST-OFFICE NOTlCE.—Newtown Butler, county
Vermanagh, having been constituted a post town, the office
there will be opened for the issue and payment of money
orders, on anti•Sfter the Gth July next, upon which date also
the receiving-office for letters at Tottenham-cross will be
opened for the iseue and payment of money orders.

STATE OF TRADE.
(Fromn the illancheser Guardian of this day.)
31ANCLIZSTER, TCESDAY.—The continued ten-
dency of the accounts from the cotton-growing dis
;riot* to..enhance the value of the raw material, has
iniparted additional firmness to our yarn market, and,
indeed, has led to the requirement of some further ad-
vance for 20's water and for such numbers of mule
are . most in demand. This has considerably
limited the day's transactions, which, it is evident,
would otherwise have been on a large scale, for
e6nsumption at bowie and shipment to the European
cantinent, and which, as it is, have reached a
fjir amount. The finer counts, of good Russian qua-
lity, are at least maintaining, their buoyancy; as is
al.o the case with certain descriptions of doubled yarn.
Tine accounts from Indic, however, halve not led to any
operations de.,..erying of notice for that quarter. On all
hinds, it is found that the lightness of their stocks,
aad the degree in which they are under contract,
together with the stimulus of dear cotton, have ren-
dered the great body of spinners very indifferent
about taking further orders. The demand that ex-
ists for long cloths, I's, and domestics, has been
aided in its effect uilan the value of those articles by
the state of the cottAi market; the tendency of prices
is kill upward, and this is particularly felt in long
dotba,' which have bcome exceedingly scarce.
But . India :goads generally, and the different
widths of printing cloths also, are not so much
in request ; prices. are, however, firmly maintained.
Tao continued inaction of the Eastern merchants
tines an explanation in the advises given-below; and
thtrxpaietness of printing cloths and some other
fabrics is partly attributable to the little that is• now
being done in them by the Greeke, who, since their.
liteacCve operations, have been much disappointed in
:heir expectations of a materially increased demand
from Khorissah. Letters of the 15th ult. from Con-
stantinople are very discouraging as to the probable
reAllts of exports, whether for Persia or elsewhere, in
connexion with that entrepdt.
-_•ltocainAus, Mordpar.-I,Ve have had a fair demand
for flannels to-dav:, at prices much the same as those
of, fast week. The manufacturers continue to pur-
chase the raw material very sparingly, and the wool-
stSeerS hold. out for good prices. The workpeople
arein flitl employment, and the stocks on hand are
extremely light. •
14ACCLEiFIELD, TUESDAY.—There is no favour-
abfe alteration to notice as regards the manufacturing
trade of this town, many weavers are understood to
be out, of
.empl.yrnent, and the sales of goods are
only !o a small ext:nt. If any demand should even-
tually arise, we apprehend there will be a scarcity of
goods,
.consequent on production having been very
much liaiitetl cf late. The throwing trade continues
in a vqr. unsatisfactory state, prices of raw and
thrown sdic being almost on a par ; in consequence
..f which several moors throwing concerns have been
brought to' a stand for the present. In the public
wises of raw silk, held in London last week, very
little business was transacted , • owing to the high
•

riltes demanded, the bulk of the silk was withdrawn
at extreme rates.
:EWSl'.\ I 'F, iIiIIDDERSFIELD, TOESDAY.—I'Ve have this week to

amount of business hai been doing in the hall
The Wel:ebous.e3 have been brisker during
