MARKETS FOR MANUFACTURES.

MANCHESTER.—At the beginning of last, week the market
seemed somewhat relieved by the more favourable reading of
the accounts respecting the Turkish questiOn ; this, however,
was only momentary, for on Tuesday, the same dulness that
has existed for several weeks, was again apparent. Since
then there has been no favourable change, but rather the
reverse, the decline in the price of cotton in
America, caused
by the money panic there, having been followed by a dulness
in Liverpool, which has operated rather unfavourably in this
market. Prices must, however, be considered firm, on the
whole. The tone of the market varies each day, according to
the tenor of the news respecting the Eastern question. Thus,
on Thursday there was rather a better feeling; whereas, on
Friday, this again disappeared. In Yarn the sales for India
have been rather more extensive, and at prices at least as
high as last week's currency. Water Yarns have also have
been rather more easy of sale, as also the coarser number of
warps, the production of both of which is materially reduced
by the stoppage of the mills at Wigan. Goods are generally
very dull, and the tendency is to lower prices, though no
quotable decline has taken place. Jacconetts and 40in. shirt-
ings have been rather more freely taken, the temptation being
the low prices.
BRADFORD.—WIIOIB: There is no move in combing Wools,
and the supplies in the hands of the staplers, and coming to
the commission houses, augur strongly that the country
dealers have not had so many buyers visiting them as in
years past. It is with the greatest difficulty sales of trifling
importance can be effected. Notts and broker continued to
be made in limited quantity, and prices unaltered.—Yarns :
The cessation- of looms around here, and the turn-outs in
Lancashire, have brought the business of the spinners within
a narrow limit, and at no period, for many years, has there
been such a stoppage of machinery. In reeled Yarns there is
some offering by the commission houses, but such are the
prices offered by the buyers, that it is found that to allow the
frames to stand is the course attended with the least loss.—
Pieces : The quantity making is very meagre, for it is unwise
to produce cloth when it is not wanted, the effect being to
in rse the value of the raw material beyond its proper worth.
HUDDERSFIELD.—Business in the market is almost at a
stand. With the exception of a few deliveries to order very
little has been done in either the Cloth Hall or the manufac-
turers' shops. The wool trade has also been fiat.
ROCHDALN.—Very little business doing. The merchants
are unwilling to purchase, only at reduced prices.—There is
a decided fall in the price of Wool, varying from lad to 2d
per lb., and the manufacturers buy for immediate use only.
In the warehouses the country orders are much more limited
than is usual in the beginning of November.
NOTTINGHAM.—The Lace trade is still fiat, and there does
not seem any chance of change for the better for the next
month or two. The present state of fashion in the United
States is against this business; but their monetary affairs
being in a deranged state, accounts more fully for the cause
of the decreased inquiry for both Lace and Hosiery.—There
is not any change in the price of Yarn.
