COTT.::N MARKET-MAY 5

We are without any change in onr Cotton Market. To-day
the demand has been good, and chiefly from the trade, with
some little on speculation account. The total sales reach
1..,0 0 bales, at last week's prices. Until the arrival of the
Great Western some little anxiety will naturally be felt as to
how " Jonathan" will take our Sir Robert's intimation of ac
tion on the Oregon territory, and some little speculation will
naturally, arise from it.

STATE OF TRADE

i.EEDS.—There was scarcely the same amount of business
done in our Cloth Halls. on Tuesdy, as at the corresponding
markets of the last fcw weeks. There was a fair share of pur-
chases made on the previous Saturday, arid an average amount
in the warehouses during the week. The demand for th lower
quality of goods h slighty;improved of late. Stocks continue
low of both finer and coarse, materials, and the manufacturers
are fully employe,l. The price of wool remains firm, with no
large amount in the hands of the staplers. The new clip come
but slowly to hand.

BRADFORD —A good amount of business was done in our
piece ma, kct on Thur,day, without any marked alteration
prices. The demand for yarn is only limited. Owing to the
high price of wools, both spinners and manufacturers purchase
as sparingly s their immediate wants will admit of. The wool-
st piers also purchase sparingly, as the growers and country
dealers demand high prices. The stocks are low, and the forth-
coming sales in London will be anxiously looked to for an ad-
dition to the present supply.

fIuDfiERSFIKI.I3 -- Our market on Tuesday was less animated
than usual, and the amount of business done was comparatively
smhll. There, however, was uo alteration in prices.

BECKNIONIMIKE BLANKET MARKET.—The markets for the
last toitnight have been very wet attended both by merchants
and nianinactarers, and prices remain arm.

flALtvAx.—A good amount of business was done at our last
market, both in manufactured goods and the raw and partially
manufactured ma.erials. Noi,s and brokes have advanced
nearly if s. per pack.

WAKEFItILD 'WOOL MARKET.—We have still to report a
better inquiry f r n arty all descriptions of short Wool, likewise
for foreign and down combing so ts, but the trade rules as dull
as ever for deep com•ng wool, and particularly for wethers.

ROCHDALE FLANNEL MA RICET.—We had rather more doing
in the flannel market on Monday; the demand has been better,
but prices have continued extremely low. The wool market
remains flat.

HOSIERY AND LACE TRADES.—The state of the manufac-
ture of cotton :.osiery continues much the same as during the
whit, r ; the wrought cotton hose hands have em: loyment for
mot of the frames, at the ominal rate of wages given in 835.
'1 he cut-up branch may be said to be brisk, there being a great
number of f ames to let. Drawers are in pretty good demand,
but, if anything, retrograding. The silk gl ,ve trade has im.
proved a shade; many hands, wearied out with privations, have
lett it. The bobbin-net trade is in the most depressed condition,
and machines are stopping in all directions ; that is, those en-
gaged in the fancy bra,iches The warp.lac, trade is in rather
a singular situation. The lap and press br ,rich is extremely de-
pressed, especially in those articles intended for dresses; this
is heavily felt by this body of workmen, who, previous to the
introduction of this new manufacture, had suffered severely.
AS a eounterpiece to th s the silk blonde branch, which ha;
been depressed for years is reviving, especially in the fancy
department. The tatting branch, in the midst of there c
st.ll k eps in a very healthy s'a'e. The demand f.
articles in Asia still continues.—Nottingham Journal,
