STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Manchester Guardian.)
The Yarn Market continues without change,:
indeed the spinners are under contract to so great
extent, as to leave very little yarn for present salbe;
and prices are very firm, except for some few of t
finer counts suitable for doubling.- which are rather
easier to buy. Goods are steady at previous rates.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, NO/%1 •
—There has been very little change in the -11
market to-day, except, perhaps, it may be 831 t:,
that the buyers have shown a greater desire I
purchase. The manufacturers have complained
the forced sales of last Monday were quoted ID
the Guardian, as it is well known that prices fq.e
.
submitted to by some parties (at a slack time) 1!
November, which are, perhaps, not a fair criteria
for those who can hold their goods. It-appears to Ds;
however, that the prices at which business is d°°,
are the market prices, and as such ought to be quotea.
The wool market is much the same ; manufacturers
buy for immediate use only.

PRICES OF PROVISIONS IN WALES AND JERSEr•j
It is satisfactory to us to know that the wages, Ode°
to the privileges of the working classes in this 'it
nity, are superior to those of the same class in man)
parts of England, while they have house-rent and Pr°:.
visions much cheaper. It may be interesting to °ui
distant readers to learn the prices of the luxuries,
living in Carmarthen; our London friends in partiea'''.,.°
will be astonished at finding that in the market last fine
turday might be bought—fine geese at 2s. each ; a ti.
young turkey, 3s. 3d. to 3s. 6d.; a pair of ducks, 2s. 2
to 2s. 6d. ; and fowls from Is. to Is. 6d. a couple.
Our poultry is certainly not so large as that from INOr.:
folk, but for succulence and delicacy of flavour
is not to be surpassed. Beef, mutton, and ork are
to be bought at 4d. and 4d.; pickled joints, ,0;
the finest meat, sd. We have a most plentful
year of potatoes; they may be bought fine an
good, at one shilling the bushel, 60 to 651bs. to thd.
bushel. Fresh butter, 26 ounces to the pound, at Is. 5
Eggs are now 24 a shilling ; in the summer the,'
are 36. Good heavy oats, forty pounds to the bushel, are
at Is. I Id. to 2s. Cheap, however, as all this, aPPeeril
to be, we are quite outdone in Jersey, which, being;
free port, is enabled to import, duty free. frt.
Brittany, one of the cheapest provinces of Fras;:,
provisions, wines, &c., at very low rates. Tl)ea
(in Jersey) a turkey is 2s. to 3s. ; ducks, Is- "
a pair ; gunpowder tea, ss. per lb. ; double di
re-
fined sugar, 4id. to 6d. a lb. ; and Brazil sugar, 5
Very good port and serry at 245. the dozen; claret, 5
18s. to 245. the dozen ; brandy, 4s. the gallon; very fine
and old ditto, 75.; Hollands, 2s. 10d. to 3s. 4d. the
The prices are still further reduced by the Enkt
shilling passing for thirteenpence. Add to all ti"
there are no taxes, and there is not a toll-bar in the
island.—Carmarthen Journal.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—A POOR MAN'S LIFE SA/ft
sr HOLLOWAY'S PlLLS.—Jeremiah Laughlin, a porn,

liver. This man was in the second stage of consul:oP:
