MARKETS.

MARKETS FOR MANUFACTURES.

MANCHESTER.—The market has been much less depressed
this week, an increased business having been done, and at rates
above those that would have been previously given. There was
but little actual change until Tuesday, when the accounts re-
ceived the day previous from America having infused more
spirit into the Liverpool cotton market, and the telegraphic
advices from India apparently indicating some improvement,
the feeling in this market was decidedly better, more inquiry
being experienced whilst producers were disposed to advance
their prices, not being longer inclined to accept the rates cur-
rent at the close of the previous week. There has been an
increased business in Yarns for India, and Water Yarns for
China have also been in demand, at prices *d. to 4d. above the
extreme decline. In the Cloth market an increased inquiry
has been experienced, but without any disposition to concede
an advance in price.
ROC H DALE.—We have had little change in the market either
in price or demand. The demand for Wool is very steady, and
prices continue to advance slowly.

LEEDS.—Manufacturers are almost universally satisfied with
the existing state of things, orders having accumulated to a
very considerable extent. So much is being done in order to
meet future engagements that very few have either the wish or
time to attend market. The same is the condition of both the
home and foreign trade. Whatever goods are offered, gene-
rally meet with willing purchasers.
BRADFORD.—WooIs of the best quality are much inquired
for, but merchants hold out for good prices. Yarns are be-
ginning to be much wanted, but manufacturers recoil from
present prices. The consequence of this state of things is that
piece manufacturers are in a panic, and it is to be feared, un-
less they can accommodate themselves with materials at easier
rates, many will curtail the time in their mills.
HALIFAX.—Yarn is again higher, but the advance is not
equal to that on the raw material. Although the spinners
purchase sparingly, and only to meet immediate needs, Wool
continues to rise, partly owing to increasing scarcity, and
partly to speculative sales.
HUDDERSFlELD.—Manufacturers are fully employed, and if
more hands could be got, could find customers for the extra
quantity of goods. The tendency in price is upwards in most
seasonable fabrics.' ..„

NoITINOHAM.—The Hosiery trade remains still in a pros-
perous condition, that portion of it for home consumption
particularly; additional orders for spring goods have been
received from the United States, and more are expected. The
Lace trade is not in so good a position as we could wish, the
season considered. A great number of buyers have been here
recently, but their purchases have been unusually limited, and
remarkably so at this period, as sales of our goods are usually
extensive just prior to Easter. It is said spinners of fine Yarns
are looking for an advance of prices—should this be the case,
it will militate seriously against lacemakers.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET,
FRIDAY, MARCH 18•

At this morning's market Wheats found a fair consumptive
demand, at the full rates of Tuesday last, and in addition to
local, we had some transactions for the interior of the country
and for Ireland. Flour, compared with the quantity fresh at
hand, was not freely offered to-day, yet the sale was languid,
and if anything the turn in favour of the buyers, both for
