a "os.—The dullness which we noticed two or three, weeks
_P ove hangs our markets. Although our manufacturers
%.,,a5 dressers are generally pretty busy, there is not the same
...stivitY that prevailed a short time since in the demand for low
s.TEIs, but there is an improvement in the sales for fine cloths,
fn4lunneaspi . LD MARKET —There is still a good demand for
Fickyefras..b.dryiscs; as well as the lighter and finer kinds of plain goods
and as the stocks on hand were limited, late prices
the fully maintained. There is a good assortment of wool in
jMarket, which fetched recent rates.
iAzis•Jix Maaxsa..—There was RD universal paucity in the
tia;:endance of buyers at this market on Saturday, and a propt-n•-
__natelY small amount of busine:s was transacted in piece
V,Td;s• The sales of yarns were also fewer in number and quail.
': and wool met slack sale at a trifling decline in price.
BRADFORDznen MARKET.—The lull which is usual before the com-
nowefe_m,,ent of the t, ummer trade with Germany seems to have
Tri, fully set in, as there were comparatively few of the buyers
edet:d with the division of the continent at this market on

or coarimufacdtuarYerst,herewasbiit a meagre attendance of buyers
TlMrsd consequently but little business done. On
aY there were some considerable orders put out for the
'M.)011 trade, but for the home trade there was but little demand.

dullest makets we have had of late ; very few buyers having

'Tilted scale.d t
The wool market has beenn no better than the
Piece market, and few sales have been effected.
LEICESTER,—There is no improvement to report this week in
the
demand for goods; while the prices of material are a little
easierl,_,. though no positive reduction has yet been generally

Of Wages.—Leicester Chronicle.
ROSIERT AND LACE TRADES.—We cannot report any con.
tiderable alteration in the cotton hosiery trade, though the Spring
has not brought with it the expected increased demand. The
oedt..dtutnPleoorttonno hose branch continues tolerably brisk, and, as we
of before ohserved, seems likely to continue so, as we hear
speculation in building new wide frames. The
fortt° glove branch keeps tolerably brisk : the hands having
as Ted a union, keep many of the houses considerably in check,
jo „"e of them have yet ventured to try their strength with the
bruanneeYMen in resisting a turn-out. The drawer and pantaloon

hands being in general well employed. The heavy

framew 1,! American tailors, is heavily felt in this branch, as
pants] ,drawers could be easily converted into breeches, and

br me drawer frames would be doubled. The silk glove

aILL.STREET MARKET.—The pedlar's shops ROW in
course of erection in the yard attached to this new market
T.,! now nearly completed, and are nearly all already I.et.
coetf has been found a great convenience to theri-
the district. It is exceedingly well supplied
offered at
Meat generally, and on Saturday especially, with the choicest
fr , 'vegetables and all sorts of provisions, which are
so moderate a price that prrties even from a
distance have become frequent visitors. The shops,
stalls, and standings continue to be let to respectable te-
nants ; and the market is withal so remarkably clean, well
lighted and airy, that it has become a favourite resort of
anusekeepers and other purchasers. It will be seen by
advertisement in another column, that some of the spa-
drY, and well ventilated cellars below are to be let.
..r_kese are suitable for the curing and preserving of meats,
;ITU, &c., are superior to any vaults in the town for
„pc' PurPoses, and the rents fixed are very low.
`EXPLEToN's MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENTS.—During
thehas
past Week this excellent performer of Scottish music
1,-‘4B been giving a series of entertainments at the Theatre-
s'`i:o3,sl, Church-street, to highly-respectable audiences,
though not to such numerous ones as we could have
Wished to see, or Mr. Templeton's exquisite singing of
the music of his native. land should have attracted. On
Wednesday evening the subject of the entertainment was
the music of Mary Queen of Scots, which was interwoven
with a most interesting sketch of the life of that most
unfortunate queen. The various songs introduced were
given with great taste, and many of theni received with
enthusiastic marks of approval, and, some encored. In
particular, we may notice the song of " Row on, row on,"
which was most dramatically and effectively
given, and
repeated. On Thursday a selected entertainment was
given, containing many favourites of the public, which
were beautifully s'..n;*. On Friday morning, an entirely
original entertainment was introduced, at the Assembly-
loom, Great George-street, being a selection from the
oYs of the last great Scottish minstrel. Sir Walter Scott,
and repeated on Saturday evening at the Theatre. The
ileelotes and us-rative remarks accompanying the songs
wenT c'f very interesting character; and many. ot the
mass them-,elve s were beautifully given, and elicited the
arke
t* d,aP.)lau,e of the hearers. In particular, we may.
aio,lCe

much e(rie effect; " Lochinvar," which was given with

el. Narrnion " Where shall the lover rest ? " which
faice,eiteid a hearty' encore ; and " 'Tis merry, 'tis merry in
tafni Laud," an exquisite song. The gem of this enter-
ftn—ineut, however, was " The Last 'Words of Marmion,"
the music of Dr. Clarke, which was given with an
then expression, and feeling, which electrified the au-
ce• We cannot but express. here our admiration of

d e‘°ll'l3 entertainments has been arranged, and of the
raPaatic effect which the singer gives to the various com-

selladri_lice. The former display considerable industry, re-
