MANCHESTER.—The report we are forced to give of this
week's business will vary but little from our account of the
market for many previous ones. Since our last both the
goods and yarn markets have been exceedingly dull, and
buyers are shy in purchasing more than for their actual wants.
From all we can learn, the stock of low numbers in yarns
may be reported light. The stock of goods, we fear, is large;
and, if the manufacturers will go on working full hours, it
will soon be a trial of strength which can lose money the
longest, and the weakest will go to the wall. We see no
prospect of an advance in goods this year (although the raw
material has advanced this week), for stocks are heavy and
money scarce, and likely to be more so. Indeed, it would
not surprise us to see goods in December. even lower than
they are now. The print trade is still deplorably bad.
Power-loom printers may be quoted, 27-inch 66's, ss. lid.
to ss. 6d., and 72's ss. 6d. to ss. 101 d., although some houses
will not sell for less than 6s.—Adeeriiser of Saturday.
LEICESTER.—The stocks on hand, although the demand
has been more active the last few weeks, are as yet conside-
rable, and a great number of frames are unemployed. As
the season will be over for the Leiceseer trade in a few
weeks, we fear we shall have a great want of employment
dvring the coming winter. The rates of yarn and labour
remain without alteration.

BOLTON.—No further improvement has manifested itself
in the trade of this town during the last 14 days. Counter-
panes continue in fair request, but prices are such that ma-
nufacturers can realise only very small profits. Fine fancy
goods continue mtich depressed. Muslius are in rather bet-
ter demand than they have been in for some weeks past :
they are still, however, in a very low state. The improve-
ment which had lately appeared in the demand for cotton
yarns, has hardly been maintained. The yarn-market has
suffered rather severe depression during the last fortnight,
and fears have been entertained that many of the mills,
where the machinery had begun to be fully employed, would
again be compelled to limit their production. Brass and iron
foundries are very slack. Two of the most extensive firms
in the town are working only four and four and a half days
per week, and many of their workmen have been discharged.
LEEDS.—The demand for cloths in the piece-halls since
our last has not been equal to that of the week preceding.
For domestic consumption, however, the sales continue more
extensive than those for exportation, the recent failures at
Lisbon and the critical state of our political relations with
the United States having had their influence upon the mer-
chants who trade with these countries.—lntelligencer of Sa-
turday.

BRADFORD, THURSDAY.—In wool there is no distinct al-
teration in prices, and the demand for shafty sorts continues
active, but flue English sorts from Down fleeces are in slow
request. Colonial wool is very much depressed. We can-
not report any improved demand for yarns ; the production
is weekly diminished, as the length of days decrease, and with
but few exceptions, the mills are only working daylight, nor
can we learn that any immediate hope of amends is apparent.
The arrival of the Caledonia steamer from America, has not
had any beneficial effect in our market, as only a limited
business has been done. Lustres made from white Alpaca
yarns and cotton warp, have been less inquired after. Meri-
noes and Saxonies, the original staple urticle of our manu-
facture, are more inquired for.
