MARKETS.

MARKETS FOR MANUFACTURES.

MANCHESTER.—During the past week the parliamentary
elections have completely absorbed public attention, and
withdrawn people from business in a degree which leaves
little to be said about it. Throughout the week the attendance
on 'Change has been remarkably slender; and the contests in
progress or at hand have formed the main topics of conversa-
tion. The operations in yarns and goods have consequently
been so small as to afford scarcely any test of prices. The
market has been steady, and little or no change in prices can
be quoted. In some instances buyers of yarn will find a slight
advantage, but that only from spinners who have hitherto
held out for the rates obtainable a fortnight ago, and have now
conceded to a reduction of id. per lb, or thereabouts. Mule
yarns for India are quiet, and may be quoted fully id. loWer
than last week. In goods there is no noticeable change; for
some descriptions suitable for the East there has been rather
more inquiry.

LEEDS.—The reports of the markets for textile manufactures
in Yorkshire this week present no feature of particular impor.
tance. The excitement consequent on the general election
has operated prejudicially as to the amount of business actually
done this week, but generally the markets have been firm, and
all things considered, a good few goods have changed hands.
