MARKETS..
MARKETS FOR MANUFACTURES.

MANCHESTER.—The market has been very steady all week,
with an upward tendency, but the demand has not been exten-
sive, the prices asked having checked the operations of pur-
cbasers. The position of spinners of the coarser numbers of
Yarn, as also that of manufacturers of many descriptions of
goods, is, week by week, becoming more unfavourable, it being
found exceedingly difficult to advance the prices of Yarns and
goods to an extent equivalent with the gradually-increasing
value of cotton. At the same time, the general absence of stocks
is a feature of the market favourable to a general firmness in
feeling, which has been more especially demonstrated during
the last few days. For Yarns there has only been a moderate
inquiry both for export and home use. The demand for India
is only moderate, as also for Germany. and the Mediterranean.
If anything, slightly more business has been done since the
middle of the week. Manufacturers are only purchasing to the
extent of their consumption. Prices firm ; rather against the
buyer. In Printing Cloths of nearly all kinds there is still a
good demand at full prices. Shirtings, for India, are not so
brisk, whilst in heavy goods there is only a limited business
doing, but all maintain very full prices.
ROCHDALE.—The demand for Flannels continues good, and
the manufacturers are getting rather better prices. In Wool
there is no change.
LEEDS.—Generally the staple trade of the district continues
as buoyant as it has now been for some time. The manufac-
turers are fully employed, and many of them have orders on
hand that they will not be able to complete within the ensuing
month.

BRADFORD.—WooI: The sales during the week have been
limited; the prices demanded act as a barrier, and the accounts
from the country are quite contrary to busmess being done.
Noils and brokes are without change. Yarns The business
doing is not different to that of many weeks past. The cost to
produce Yarns rules too high to enable the spinners to offer
at prices at all satisfactory to the manufacturers. Pieces : The
difficulties to make goods to meet the prices offered are not
lessened, and the avocation of the manufacturers continues
cheerless and unremunerating. The fair at Leipsic is well
attended, but the advanced prices retard the operations.
HALIFAX.—Our Piece Hall has been thinly attended, and
scarcely any Worsted Goods, of any sort, were disposed of.
The Yarn market is much the same as it was ; and the spinners.
confident that higher rates must be realised, are shy of taking
orders at the current prices. In Wool there is a fair amount
of business, and the quotations exhibit great firmness.
HUDDERSFIELD.—There has scarcely been any noticeable
change in our market from last week ; if anything, not quite so
good a demand for the coarser qualities of Woollens. Anything
new in light goods sells readily for the home market.
LEICESTER.—In all descriptions of material suitable for the
Leicester Woollen Hosiery trade there has been further ad-
vances. Upon all Woollen Yarns there has been an advance of
25 per cent. during the last six months. All the hands are fully
employed, and advanced wages are promised to nearly all
descriptions of frame-work.
NarrnyonAm.—There is not that marked improvement in
the Lace trade that was anticipated at this time, but the season
being cold and backward is doubtless in some degiee a great
cause of this state of things. The sale of Hosiery Goods in
most branches continues moderately brisk, and as American
buyers are arriving, a fair demand may be looked for during
the summer for both Lace and Hosiery. '

CORN

MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL, APRIL 15.—The Wheat trade ruled firm, but
with a limited attendance of millers, no business of any conse-

quence

reported. Flour continues in good consumptive
demand, with some speculative transactions in the better
descriptions of American; on the whole sellers have a slight
advantage over the rates of Tuesday, and both French and
Spanish sack Flour is in better request at full prices. Egyptian
Beans scarce, and rather dearer. Oats and Oatmeal in mode-
rate demand, without change in value. White Indian Corn
meets an improved sale at fully Gd advance, and the market is
cleared of American yellow, at a similar amendment. Inquiries
for Mediterranean arrived cannot be met, as there appears to
be none available; but several, about due at calling port, are
still to be had; Galatz 32s 6d to 335, Ibraila 30s Gd to 31s,
Salonica 29s 6d per quarter, cost, freight, and insurance, buyers
taking risk of voyage.

MANCHESTER, APRIL 16.—Our market this morning was
thinly attended, and the business done extremely limited.
Flour was rather easier to buy. Oats, Oatmeal, and Barley
were unaltered. Egyptian Beans were firm, and English 6d.
per quarter dearer.
PRESTON, APRIL 16.—There was a very poor show of
farmers' produce at our market this morning. The few samples
of fine fresh Wheat that appeared, sold readily at rather higher
prices, and the same may be written of Beans. Foreign Wheat
unaltered. Flour barely sustained late rates. Oats go off
slowly, but Oatmeal has met a moderate demand, and for both
articles we repeat our last quotations.
WAKEFIELD, APRIL 15.—We have moderate supplies of all
grain. Good fresh Wheats are held for the full prices of last
week ; all secondary sorts are lower. Fine Barley scarce, and
higher rates obtained. In Oats and Beans no alteration in
prices from last week.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, APRIL 16.—At to-day's market
we had a small supply of Farmers' Wheat, which was taken off
at fully the same terms as last Saturday. South Country
and Foreign Wheats meet a slow demand, and sales can only
he made by submitting to reduced rates. Fine Rostock and
Wolgast do not fetch beyond 50s per qr., 63 lb. per bushel in
retail. Barley comes in sparingly, and maintains its price,
31s to 335, according to quality. Pease and Beans are inactive,
and can be bought on rather easier terms. Small supply of
Country Oats, which experienced a good demand for seed, at
prices rather better than last week.
WISBECH, APRIL 16.—We have a moderate show of Wheat
here to-day, and all fresh thrashed samples exceed last week's
rates; other kinds are bought more freely. Oats and Beans,
prices looking up.

CORK, APRIL I6.—Our market for Flour and Wheat con-
tinues to drug, and sales are with difficulty made, unless by
concession to buyers. Indian Corn is held with more firmness,
and demand improves.

DUBLIN, APRIL 15.—We have no alteration to report in the
currencies of our Corn market since Tuesday; but the business
done to-day was small in every description of grain

Beef somewhat easier-56s to 55s per cwt.—but Mutton brought
6zicl to Bid per lb. in the fleece. Good Veal scarce, 7id to 8d

heavy kinds than usual, and the run of prices 465, 475, 48s, to
