STATE OF TRADE.

MANCTIESTER.—The languor which has prevailed during the
month continues unabated at its close. Buyers limit their
operations to within the narrowest possible compass, whilst
spinners and manufacturers, on the other hand, are curtailing
production commensurately. The yarn market during the past
i week has been more dull than at any time during the previous
nine months. In goods little is doing, either for home con
snmption or shirpine (except perhaps in long cl the for the
Mediterranean marl. e ), yet as stocks continue moderately
light, prices are upheld. The protracted debates in parliament,
and the locking up in the bank of so much capital, abstracted
temporarily from the purposes of commerce are producing' the
most annoying embarrassments to the mercantile community
as well here as elsewhere. Some relief must speedily be af-
forded, or extensive mischief will ensue. Prices remain nomi-
nally ns last week, and only prompt cash will secure any abate-
ment on the e quotations :-26 in. 64 reed printers, at 4s 4d to

reeds, at 8s 3d to gs 3d; and 72 reeds, at 9s 9d to les tad per
piece.
Leans.—Our woollen markets have been but moderately
supplied with gomis this week, but wi h quite enough to supply
the demand. Rather more has been done in the warehouses
than was done last week ; but, upon the whole, our merchants
are doing but a small amount of business for the season of the
year, and we cannot expect they will do more until the new
commercial tariff 01 the government is finally settled, especially
with the marked caution w th which almost all prudent trades-
men
are now acting. Prices, however, of both manufactured
cloths and the raw material (wool) remain firm ; and without
stocks being materially on the increase, the manufacturers are
pretty well employed, though not to so full an extent as is desi-
rable ; a larger number of operatives being out of employment
than were cut in Feb uary 1845.
HUDDERSFIELD.— In our market on Tuesday. there was a
tolerably good demand for fancy goods suitable for the swing
tra e. For plain goods and winter fabrics the:e was very little
inquiry, but upon the whole there was a lively market for the
season, both in the hall and warehouses. There cannot be a
doubt. however. that our trade would receive a fresh impulse,
if the new tariff question were settled.
ITALIFAX.—In the Piece Hall business has been similar to
that of several weeks pa-t. Stocks are not heavy for the season,

and prick's withotl alteration. Yarns are not on the increase.
The spinhers act with caution in not making heavy purchases
at the high price wool bears at present. There was no improve-
merit in the wool trade, and few sales were made; prices remain
the same. Nolles and brokes are in good request.
WAKEFIELD Wool, liiinaasT.--The same causes that we no-
ticed last week still continue to exercise an unfavourable influ-
ence on the wool market, and causes little to be done. Prices
are still without alteration for either short or long wool.
BRADFORD.—Woo/-1 he market continues in the same dill

state which has p e sled for some weeks past. -The transac-
x div&n tin's are very limited. No. doubt this rr.ay be ascribed mainly
do to the general s'oppage of machinery through the winter, acid
which is still continued In prices we cannot note any change.
Yarns—The demand for yar s is rather improved, but the prices
remain below the cost of production. Many respectable spin-
ning establishments are not w..rking more than four days oer
week, with a large nu inter of frames altogether idle. Piece—
There was an average attendance of buyers on Thursday, but
not avi ry large amount o I.:netts changed hands. Prices, if
anything, are slightly on the recline
HECK MONLWIRM BLANKET MARKET.—This market has been
very slack this week, the demand for hone trade is unusually
snrall for the season, and prices have receded a little since our
last.
ROCIIDAT a —We had another du I market en Mcnday. Prices
were in s, me instances a shade lower th in last week, whilst
wools and oil, remained the same. It is generally thought that
31 P the present uncertainty as to the corn-laws is injurious to the
xn tianoel trade.
xn -
IlosreltY Awn Lacs TRADES —The cotton hosiery branches
still continue in a very dull a-id depressed state, the workmen
P being in many instances short of empl ,yment, and, as a matter
p of course, subject to many impositions and petty peculations.
The silk glove branch has suddenly recovered, and may be said
to he very brisk, bands being scarce. The fancy bobbin net
trade is yet in a most depiora',te condition. The power lace
fac cries, which principally make plain traversed nets, have
considerably rev ved, and are now working the usual hours.
The warp lace trade is still very dull, and many important
branches are nearly stagnant. The blond trade, where the
frames are worked by the hand, is in a very lamentable condi-
tion,4i P many of the workmen preferring making cut-up hose,
however lean the employment, to making silk lace. Where the
Jacquard has been applied, it is in a rather better state ; but
taking the hosiery ant lace trar'ea in aggregate, they are in a
most deplorable condition, with but litt e wed-founded hopes
r f amendment.—Nottingham Journal.

DIED

Lately, in Halton street. Cross-street, Islington, London,
aged S 3 years, Mrs MARY COIiKRAN, widow, whose late hus-
band became a member of the Incorporated Society of Li-
censed Victuallers on its first establishment, the number of his
certificate being 67. The dec ase ', together with her late
husband, had received a Nve, kly allowance from the funds 0
the Society since the Bth Octo ier, 1810. a period of nearly 354
years, end the sdrn paid to them amounted to upwards of Four
Hundred and Sixty Pounds. For this large amount their
orig nal subscription to the Society was One Guinea. Proba..
bly no ether institution in the United Kingdom can adduce a
parallel case. How conclus,vely this "great fact" and valuable
investment of a single subscril ton, speaks in favoura of the
Incorporated Society of Licensed Victuallers, we leave to the
decision of every reflecting membe. of the trade-
