STATE QF •TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian of yestLslay.)
There has been, upon the whole, a fair and steAdi
business in the yarn market this week, especially for
mule yarn, which is in rather better demand than for
two or three weeks past. For goods, too, the market is
rather firmer, especially for light fabrics above thirty
inches wide, which are in general demand at full prices•
Printing cloths and domestics, however, continue dull,
and the prices are still rather tending downwards.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, APRIL 29.
—There have been rather more inquiries after prices
to-day, and some merchants have purchased more freely'
but, upon the whole, there has not been much more
business transacted than on the preceding MoNday.
spirit of speculation has been excited among the buyers,
as many are inclined to think that. ere long there will 10
a further advance in wool, notwithstanding the new clip
will soon be in the market. In wool prices remain firing
and the demand steady.
