is 10i:bout f9f
an extensive business is doing, and at th© full priCes of 143 t
week. 66's n-lnch, as also 40-inch shirtings, are very scarce
in the market, and the buyers are anxious to make contracts
at the prices that have been current for the last ten days.
The shippers are operating very freely, being certain that
printing cloth is not at present likely to recede, in conse-
quence of the light stocks on hand. Domestic cloth, we are
also pleased to learn, is ready of sale, where the manufac-

turers will take a market price, and, with one or two except
tions, the stocks of this description of cloth still continue
light. The yarn trade is heavy, and spinners cannot get on
to any extent at the prices current last week. The yarn trade
is brisk, particularly for printed muslin-de-laines, which can-
not be produced sufficiently fast to meet the demand. 27-inch
66's may be quoted 4s. 74d. to 4s. 100., and 72's 4s. 10-id.
to ss. 3d.—Manchester Advertiser of Saturday.
BOLTON.—There has no material change taken place in the
trade of this town during the last fortnight, which still pre-
sents a most animated appearance. Counterpanes have a
fair sale, and quiltings and muslins have received a slight
further improvement. Cotton yarns are unusually brisk, and
altogether the trade in yarns is encouraging. Founderies of
both brass and iron continue to be more and more fully em-
ployed. Bleachworks are still well stocked with work.—Rid.
BRADFORD, TSIURSDAY.—TiroeI Market. There is no
marked difference in this article during the past week. A
tolerable quantity has changed hands at prices similar to last
week.—J'arn. The demand for varn continues steady, and
prices fully supported.—Piece. There is a fair average busi-
ness done, and the prospect for the future is no way worse
than for some time past. Prices are generally firm.—Wake-
field Journal of Saturday.

TRADE OP LEEDS.—The amount of business transacted in
the cloth-halls, on Saturday and Tuesday last, exceeded that
of any corresponding market-days during the present year,
and the woollen trade generally, both for the home and
foreign market, is in a tolerably active state. It is true that
prices do not advance much, but it is gratifying to know that
many of the operatives arc better employed than they have been
for a long time past, and that manfacturers and merchants
are not doing business without some profit to themselves.—
Leeds Intelligencer, of Saturday.
HALIFAX MARKET.—There was again an animated de-
mand for mixture cloths, fine listings, and even some of the
ordinary qualities of camlets and other heavy stuffs at this
market on Saturday, but the manufacturers were unable to
raise the prices or to realize better profits. Yarns sold readily
at late prices; as did the finer sorts of combing wools, but
the ordinary qualities were thought to be less firm.—lbid.
HUDDERSFIELD MARKET.—We have no change to note
in the demand for goods at this market on Tuesday last.
There were fully as many buyers as on the previous Tuesday,
and a fair business was done in most descriptions of fancy
goods. We cannot bear of any very decided improvement
in prices, though it is generally considered that in that re-
spect " things are somewhat better " than they were lately.
—lbid.
