STATE OF TRADE.

LEEDS.—We have scarcely any change to note in the state
of the woollen trade of this district, though toe market, like
the weather on that day, was comparatively dull. The mer-
chants seem, however, to be in general busy.
HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—There was much the same feeling
to-day, both as to pt ice and demand, as there was last market
day. There is, in short, nothing different to report.
HUDDER SF I E L TUESDAY.—We have been to-day by no
means so brisk as last week, and at the same time without
being able to assign any reason for the great difference. A
very lim►ted business, indeed, has been done. There are, how-
ever, various fancy goods in great request, for which full prices
are made. In wools no variation.

WA KEFIELD.—There has been a very brisk demand for all
descriptions of combing wools;. and staplers, in consequence
of the continued good demand for the last few weeks, have
this day been enabled to Obtain some advance. Other kinds
steady in value, and with a fair inquiry.
BRA DFORD, Tnuasuay.—There has been a tolerable busi-
ness doing to-day in the various deparments of piece goods;
but there is no description of cloth that commands a corres-
ponding value with that of wool. Merchants generally only
buy for orders in hand, as though they were anticipating steady
pi ices through the season. Yarns. This article continues
remarkably steady. The demand was much the same as for
many weeks past. There has been no disposition to buy, ex-
cept from hand to mouth, which brings the manufacturers un-
usually regular into the market. Prices remain the same as
for some weeks past.— Woo/. The staplers have not generally
succeeded in their attempts to establish an advance, and hold-
ers seem now to be reconciled with the prices they have lately
obtained. Rather less has changed hands this week.
DEwsuuttY MARKET.—Very little business was transacted
on Monday last at our blanket hall, and the manufacturers
in the neighbourhood generally cnroirlain of- having little, to
do and of not being able to realize a fair profit upon the little
that is done.

YORK WOOL MARKET, SEPT. 27.—We have had a good
demand arid a fair supply of wool to this day's market, and a
fair amount of business has been done, at prices steady upon
our last quotations.
CHESTERFIELD WOOL MARKET, SEPT. 26.—The wool
market still continues in a flat and depressed state; there is
no business scarcely in coarse wools, which are not upon the
whole so well sold as they were a fortnight ago, the principal
demand being chiefly confined to fine hog wool, which is
steady.

At no former period was the number of individuals cross-
ing the Atlantic, to and from New York, so great us it has
been during the present year.
HIGH Wycomos.—lt is ;reported as probable that Air.
Hardy, late M.Y. for Bradford, will come forward to oppose
Mr. George Smith, the whig candidate, for the representa•
tion of this borough.—Timss.
