MARKETS.
MARKETS FOR MANUFACTURES.

MANCHESTER.—The tone of this market has suffered a
change for the worse in the present week. The caution of
buyers has been excited by the apparent danger to the peace of
Europe which lies in the ruptured relations between Austria
and Switzerland, and still more between Russia and Turkey ;
while all operations for China are stopped by the seeming
triumph of rebellion in that country; and the hands of the
India merchants are restrained by advices of some decline in
the value of our fabrics at Bombay and Calcutta. The business
effected has therefore been altogether inconsiderable, both in
Yarns and Goods; but, as spinners and manufacturers are well
supplied with orders. and as they are beginning to have
demands made noon them for higher wages and restricted
hours of labour, they appear indifferent about selling, and the
quotations consequently remain unchanged. On Thursday, a
general notice for an advance of ten per cent. in the rate of
wages was given to their employers by the operatives at Stock-
port, both in the departments of spinning and weaving. Yes-
terday (Monday), a meeting of the Employers' Association was
to be held, when this notice would be taken into consideration.
ROCHDALE.—The same inactivity continues in the Flannel
market, and the manufacturers are more engaged in fulfilling
their old contracts, than in entering into new ones. In Wool
there has been very little doing, but the dealers hold out for
the old prices.
LEEDS.—Prices remain firm, consequent on the firm tone of
the Wool market. Business has been dull in the warehouses in
the home trade; and, except in heavy goods.the foreign houses
are doing less business in goods of a general description than

in the face of a further contemplated advance
production is very judiciously being lessened by working short
in the price of Cotton. Hosiery goods, especially for the con-
tinent of America, are still in good request, and it is probable
the orders for the classs of goods required for that market will
be prolonged through he summer.
LEICESTEA.—There is but little change in trade since our
last report. Prices of material remain the same. The hands
continue fully employed, as although some of the manufacturers
are stopping the frames, others require the services of the men
set at liberty.
