STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER.--There was a fair demand for yarn yester-
day, though not quite to the same extent as on the preceding
Tuesday ; the purchases for the Indian and Chinese markets
having been suspended until the arrival of the letters by the
overland mail, which are expected to-day. There was some
demand for Russian account; but, on the whole, the busi-
ness done was to a smaller extent than last week, though
without change in prices. For goods, on the contrary, there
was a somewhat better demand, especially for printing cloths
and domestics ; and a fair amount of business was done at
the full prices of the preceding Tuesday.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, APRIL 6.
There is no improvement in the flannel market to-day, and
business is, if possible, more gloomy than on the previous
Monday. Prices have undergone no change. The wool
market has also been dull and heavy : the manufacturers
seem to buy only for immediate use.
HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, APRIL 7.—The demand for
woollens is on the increase, especially in tweeds, buckskins,
&c., of a low and middle quality, but prices are still ruin-
ously depressed. For light fancy goods there is a little im-
provement in the demand, but profit is out of the question
at present. Wools remain firm, and in the middle and lower
qualities better prices are demanded. On the whole, we may
be justified in reporting a slight improvement amidst the mi-
serable commercial depression.—Manchester Guardian of
Wednesday.
13LAcKariaN.—Our market has manifested no symptom
of improvement during the past week, either in demand or in
prices, with the exception of some descriptions of bundle
yarn, which have met with a ready sale at former low and
unprofitable rates.

Fox CHASE EXTRAORDINARY.—Oneti day last week, as
the Derby engine, belonging to the rt-iingtiain and Derby
Railway Company, was proceeding with the train to the
latter place, a fox was discovered runiienfeaaliong the line in
several times
upwards of
front of the engine. After keeping
a mile, reynard began to get tired, and imes crossed
the line, and was shortly after run over, and cuttcompletely
in two. On the return of the train, the separate parts were
picked up, and the head and brush were affixed to the engine
