MARKETS.

MARKETS FOR MANUFACTURES.

MANCHESTER.—There was rather less business doing at the
beginning of last week, in consequence of the extreme rates
demanded by spinners and manufacturers. The telegraph ac.
counts from India, on Thursday, v th a good report of the state
of the Calcutta market, were favourable to the firmness pre-
viously existing ; and, on the whole, the extreme rates sought
were more generally conceded. On the whole, there has been
a steady demand at advancing prices, id more being readily
obtainable for all descriptions, whilst a id is more generally
asked. There continues a fair demand in yarns for India at
the rising pi ices, but for Germany and the Mediterranean some
dullness prevails, present rates here being higher than can be
obtained abroad. The demand by manufacturers is still con-
siderable, at an advance of from id to id. There is still a good
demand for printing cloths and India shirtings of the lighter
makes,on which an advance of lid to 3d per piece is asked and
obtained. An advance is also asked for other descriptions, in..
eluding T cloths, but it is not readily obtainable. For domestics
higher prices have been obtained, and a larger demand has
been experienced.

ROCHDALE.—We have had a steady demand for pieces, and,
generally, the manufacturers have obtained a small advance,
more especially on low-priced goods. There is not much change
in the wool market. Of broken wool there is a scarcity, and
prices are very good.

LEEDS.—The woollen trade continues in a very healthy state.
here has been a more abundant supply of seasonable goods
brought to the Cloth Halls than for several weeks; they were
pretty freely take►► out on market days, and the stocks left were
very low. Prices are without any alteration. Business con-
tinues very steady amongst the home trade houses ; but the
season being far advanced, the shipping houses are, as usual,
at this period, doing much less than of late; yet, on the whole,
quite as much as usual at this period of the year.

NOTTINGHAM.—There is not the amendment in the lace
trade that was expected, and although some houses have met
with a trifling extent of business, the demand has not extended
to the trade at large. The hosiery business goes on prospering,
and although the production of the lower class of goods has
been latterly very considerably increased, there still seems to
be a ready sale for all that is produced, as we hear that the
stock of goods on all sides is smaller than usual, and, with few
exceptions, all hands have full employment. MI useful numbers
of yarns are readily sold at full rates.
