ROSIEST AND LACE TBADEs.—The Cotton cut-up Hose
bratlChes are still very brisk, and are rapidly extending, the
'Smiths being extremely busy in widening narrow frames and
Tasking new wide frames with the utmost di igence, and in a
few months a great alteration may be •expected in this now-
flourishing branch, which employs in making various descrip-
Voris of cut and part-fashioned hose from 6,500 to 7,000 frames.
The quantity produced is enormous, the wide frames averaging
4about a gross of p,irs per week—the narrow, or top frames,
producing considerably less. The wrought cotton hose branch
is still in a tolerahly prosperous state, the hands having in gene-
ral full employment. The cotton glove trade is still brisk, and
"there is but little agitation in this important branch, which,
`were it not for the extensive system of cut-ups, bids fair to hes.
staple trade. The silk glove branch has much retrograded
Within the week. The drawer and pantaloon branch is not im-
proved ; some of the houses still continue to keep their frames
standing. The bobbin-net trade is still very dull for almosteine
every description of nets and :laces. The fancy machine-
owners, -
oWners, however, instead -of making much stock, are making
alterations, and that to a considerable extent, nor is this con-
fined to the fancy trade, as mauy of the powerful machine-
owners are making alterations. The warp lace trade still keeps
