STATE OF TRADE.

MANCITESTER.—We have had another flat week, and we can
only account for this continued depression to the uncertain
state of the Cotton market. In Yarns there has been but little
doing, and none but needy spinners are disposed to recede in
prices. They are justified in this course, inasmuch as they
have not yet asked anything in just proportion to the price of
Cotton. In Cloth bat little has been done; both the country
and shipping houses are quiet at present, and must continue
so, until we have a decided change in the two great com-
modities—Corn and Cotton.—Mancliester Foreign Produce
Market, Friday.—Sugar: The great activity noticed in the
Sugar market last week seems to have subsided for the mo-
ment' and only a moderate business ha. been done, at rather
lower rates. There is no change in I-, fined goods or Treacle.
Fruit : Quotations for currants continue unchanged. Tea is-
in moderate request at former prices ; holders are firm. Silk
The silk market has undergone little or no change, buyers
nurchasing merely for their immediate wants, and no sales are
reported as having been made. Cotton : There was a slight
decline in Cotton on Monday and Tuesday, holders being evi-
dently anxious to realise ; but on the receipt of later advice*
from America yesterday,the market became rather more buoy-
ant, and a better business was done, completely recovering the
pre:ions decline. Prices are about on a par with those of
last week.

ROCHDALE.—We have had very little business doing in flan-
nels, and prices have undergone little or no change. Wool is
firm at last week's rates.

HUDDERSFIELD.—OUT market remains much the same_
There have been very few buyers in the town, and these have
been buying only to supply their immediate wants. Prices
much the same.

LEEDS.—There has been a moderate demand for Foods of
low quality at the Cloth Halls, but goods of fine qualities were
scnrceiy in demand. Prices contintio steady, and the manu-
facturers have exercised great caution for some time, the stocks
in their hands are not more than usull at this period of the year.
There has been a little more doing in the warehouses this week
by the country houses. The foreign houses are also improving
a little.

HALIFAX.—Less business has been done, both in plain and-
figured goals, than has almost ever been. recollected. With
respect to yarn, the prolluction continues to fall off, as spinners
cannot realise cost pricB ; and the
.prospect of improvement it
was thought the new year would introduce has proved to be
fallacious. As to long wool, there continues a fair demand for
show, at the slightly improved rates lately current; but the -
buyers of Reece wool are very cautious, and- indisposed to give
present prices. But little is doing in short wool, and pncee
remain without alteration.

BRA nFOILD.—W 00l Mat ket.—lt is much 'A be regretted that
we can only repeat the same unsatisfactory and monotonous
state of things which we have had to record for several weeks
past. Everything continues very dull, so far as demand goes,
and no increase of stocks. There is no disposition to press
sales or submit to lower prices, owing to the difficulty- to buy
from the dealers and growers at prices to meet the rates cur-
rent here.—Yarn Market.—Each succeeding week only goes to
add to the distresS of all connected with the trade, and nothing
can bring aboutsny amends that will give an effectual relief
but most materiaLy checking the supply, for without it wool
will maintain its price, and no advance can be realised on yarn,
which is now selong in all markets at prices most ruinous to
the spinners. There has, since the commencement of the year, .
been some addition made to the already large onantity of un-
employed machinery, and other houses now contemplate either
reducing the hours of working or stopping more spinning
frames. It is much to be regretted that this state of things
should exist when all kinds of food are so very dear, and
employment so limited. Piece Market: There continues to be
a fair business doing in Orleans and Coburgs, but no improve-
ment in price can yet be generally realised, although the goods
cannot be made to meet present prices. The advance on Cotton
Warps is yet entirely out of the pockets of the manufacturers,
who will be necessitated to either have a corresponding ad-
vance, or abridge their manufacture till warps are cheaper.
LittcusTma.—The new year's business commences gloomily,
both in London and country houses ars very. flat. The shipping
trade has not yet commenced, and the home demand suffers
much from thee-high price of provisions, anti the increased rate
of discount laid on by the Bank of England. A few buyers are
in the market, but they purchase very sparingly. Yarns are
steady, and Wools are firm ; farmers' lots average 295. per tod;
short sorts and noils command high prices.—Leicester Journa:.
