STATE OF TRADE,

af-
ter Awn LACE TRADES.— The plain silk Mdse branch, af-
,er retrograding for some years, has at length made a sort of
tase. and is something better. The silk glove branch is not in
the
least improved, and, in fact, it seems falling off altogether, I
`'.;e treat mass of the gloves noW made being cut The eottVo
!love branch still keeps in a fair state of demand; ItAd 'ate now
!ear of a cutup glove, the same as a cut. up host? branch. The
nWer, pantaloons. and shirt branch has not visibly improved;
Still the hands are pretty generally employed. More business
.w,?uld be done, but the extravagant rise in Yarn now prevents
peculation, many of the houses dreading former losses, ex
Deering
a sudden revulsion. There is no material alteration in
The wrought cotton hose branch, with the exception that the fine
frrtes above 4a-gauge are gradually set a.going ; but as a great
instead
to this, the paying in bread. meat, drapery, and other wares
stead of money, is much upon the increase, and threatens, in
6041 e hosiery districts, to become total.—Noltingharn Journal.
past demand for goods in the Cloth Halls during the
Pst week has been fully as active as for s me time past, nearly
all descriptions of cloths bein in reque t. Several mroolitan
and Iri-h buyers have been in the town during the weetek,p and a
good business has been done in the warehouses for domestic con-
*aniption. The Wool market is firm, and the prices of both
toOda and Wool continue to look up.
HIUDDERSFIELD MARKET.—We have no material change to
note in the transactions at this market, which still continue to be
mune on an extended scale, particularly in fancy waistcoatings
!all other fabrics suitable to the approaching season. As the
Wool dealers stand out very stiffly for improved rates. the manu-
facturers have some difficulty in realising remunerating prices,
the merchants being very reluctant to give way.
BnADFORD MARKET.—There was a good attendance of mer-
chants at this market on Thursday, but the business done was
110 t quite so extensive as of late in consequence of the refusal of
the Merchants in many instances to give the increased prices
asked by the manufacturers. Late rates were, however, fully
Maintained, and in cases where they could be accep,ed, the re-
quisite business was done. The Yarn Market was very brisk,
11." large dealings took place both for home consumption and
or export,,. at late rates. The Wool Market was rather slacker,
but prices were fully as firm as of late.
HALIFAX MARKET.— There was a brisk demand for piece goods
of
,„nearly all descriptions and qualities, here on Saturday; and the
Purchasers of Yarn, both for home consumption and export,
I —o,,,Tecillsiderable. More business might have been done, but
--,„ll`,.'clinwaid tendency of prices. in consequence of the extra-
ordinary increase in the value of Wool that has taken place dur-
-is the present year.
IlEcnmoNnwimE BLANKET MAR/MT.—OD Monday last there
Was a good attendance of merchants, and they were disposed to
'Pint
thase anything that could be obtained at the old rates, but
Were not prepared to buy at the great advance demanded by the
manufacturers. On Thursday'the attendance of merchantswas
'alit small, and but little business transacted.
" ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET.—There has been very little
change in the market to-day 'from last week. The demand ccn-
linues good, but many refuse to sell at the prices offered. The
Wool market is brisk, and .prices are gradually on the advance.
WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET.—The demand for all kinds of
combing Wools continues good, and the improved teems of last
week are fully maintained. Low clothing Wools aremech sought
for, at advanced prices. Blanket Wools are comparatively neg-
lected, and prices without variation.

LEICESTSR.—The growers still keep asking advanced prices
for their wool, and in many instances obtain them : some have
refused even to sell at 35. The staplers consequently have to
Put on," though they say they cannot get a proportionate ad-
vance. The spinners have this week announced advances ave.
rat ing about Bd..per lb.. and speak of further advances ; but they
find the manufacturers confine their orders as-Much as possible
to their immediate wants. Wages remain about the same for
the last two 'or three months, and employment is pretty general.
--Leicester Chronicle.

A:Lt.IICHES7S3I.—The steady business and firm prices
Which we have noted fora he last two or weeks continue,
but, if any alteration, even more buoyancy, and good 66's and
houses have began to he busy, and most of the drapers in the
72's, in 27-inolies, are, if anything, worse to buy. The country
houses have very light stocks. A good spring trade is generally
expected. The wholesale London houses have also very smah
stocks, and although they have appeared very shy in giving any
advance; t-FK7 will be forced, for the idea of lower prices at
PreSent hardly expected now by any one. Cotton in Liver-
Pool remains firm in price, and a fair amount sold this week 'to
the trade. Prices this week are asfollows 27-inch 6 ,'s, 50 id
to is 66's, 6s to 6s 6d ; and ,71-s, 6s gcl to 7s 3d.—Alltit-

NEW GAS AND COKE COMVA.NY.—An application was
Made to the Recorder on Tuesday, on behalf of the Guar-
dian'Society in particular, and the public in general, to
compel the Liverpool New 'Gas and Coke Company to
Make x reduction in the price of gas, the present charge
to consumers being 7s. per-thousand feet. Mr. Yardley
appeared in support of the application, and Mr.-James
on the part of the company. The facts of the case ap-
'geared to be briefly these=that, under the act of parlia-
raent, which was obtained by the company in 1834, it was
`enacted that they should not divide more than 10 per cent.
Ter annum on their several shares in any one year, and
That the surplus profits should in the first instance be
aPplied to the formation of a contingent fund of £5,000,
'and then in such reduction in the price of gas as the Re-
corder, on inspection of the accounts, should think fit to
order. Mr. Yardley contended at great length that the
Provisions of the act had not been complied with, although
the surplus profits, applicable to the reduction of the
-price of gas, amounted at the close of the past year to
8,044. Mr. James offered, on the part of the commis-
sioners, to reduce the price from 7s. to 65., per thousand
•feet, from and after the Ist of April next. Mr. Yardley
'Professed his willingness to accept of the reduction, pro-
erided it were to take effect from the Ist of January last.
Mr. James refused to enak. any alteration in his offer;
and at length, after a discussion which lasted.upwards of.
two hours, the Recorder took until the following day to
c insider whether he should make any• order. On Wed-
n!sday the recorder pronounced his decision. He said
123 was distinctly of opinion that he was not at liberty,
~t 1 tiler the act, to take any cognizance of any sin-plus which
/alight have been realised in years prior to the last ; and
that he could only order a reduction for the future to an
extent equivalent to the surplus in hand at the close of
Itholtnliast year. He then ordered that a reduction from 7s.
per thoucand feet should take place from and after
the first of April next, to continue to the end of the cur-
rent Year. This reduction will cause a diminution in the
Ineorne of the company to the extent of .C 4,000 a year.
'The Guardian Society, however, who have acquitted them-
elves creditably on this occasion, are threatening to pro-
ced in the Court of Queen's Bench for the recovery of
Sum of £B,OOO surplus, which they allege the company
aye realised over and above the ten per cent.
°'CoNNEee LIVERPOOL.—At half-past eigl.t
on Wednesday morning Mr. O'Connell arrived in
Urgent steamer, from Dublin, and proceeded to the
Adel gent
Hotel, followed by a mob. He was accompanied
d, his sons, Maur ice and John, his nephew Morgan John
1 Connell, R. L. Shiel and Nicholas Maher, Esears., and
,Coletnan O'Lochlen. The party remained at the
tmelPlii during the day and proceeded by the evening
o,ha to Birmingham, en route to London. About five
vpfllocic the crowds of persons, chiefly of the lower classes,
hB° had been assembling in front of the Adelphi during
to'Sy, in expectation of hearing Mr. O'Connell speak,
."blocked Ranelagh and the adjoining streets.
baj:treonnell, at that time, made his appearance on the '
ell.„:"coF of the Adelphi, and was hailed with deafening
h -erg. He looked extremely unwell. When silence had
t,.!en restored, he proceeded to say that he had not intended
„" address them, hut that as their numbers had increased
ii:)°,4nously, and they had, many of them, exercised so
ph.'ich patience during the day, he had overcome his scru-
te '4114 -say a few words. He said that he had not in-
Lladed at first to go to Parliament, but that he had since
teanged his mind, and was about to proceed on to Lon-
ons, notto take any part in the discussion on Lord. John
t: sell's motion, but to enter his solemn protest against
,P_ep acts ofinjustice which had been. done to Ireland. Be
reeated physical force at any time, but more especially
at the present, and would so long as he lived continue to
prstre his course of quiet, legal, and constitutional agita-
n. Whether he was sent to a prison, or immured in a
dungeon, he would never cease his work for the regenera-
tion of his native land—the preservation of her liberties
.1.9 the happiness of her people. It was peculiarly grati-
png for him to know that, whatever he commanded the
h..] sh people to do, they obeyed with alacrity ; and he ex-
,`.eased a hope that the same willingness to comply with
Veqe requirements of order and tranquility would be mani-
sted in England. After having made one or two obser-
Aatians in favour of general suffrage, he concluded by re-
lu es ting the crowd, after they had given three cheers for
ine,Quee n, to retire peacably. Three cheers were accord-
given, and the honourable gentleman withdrew.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, Pen. 13.
Up to Friday's market, the imports of Grain into this
place were altogether trivial; but, with tolerably increased
at rivals since, we have to report a moderately fair supply
of Wheat and Oats, Flour and Oatmeal, including several
parcels of Malt ; those from abroad, during the week,
consisting of a cargo of White Odessa Wheat, 297 qrs.
of Barley, and 828 qrs. Pease from the Baltic, with 7665
barrels of States Flour.
Excited by the further rise in London yesterday, the
Wheat trade this morning opened with increasing firm-
ness on the part of holders, wbo generally asked higher
prices than could be obtained subsequently ; for although
the attendance of town and country buyers was rather
numerous, they appeared to be unprepared to follow up
the advance required, and reluctantly paying 3d. upon
English and Irish, and 2d. per 701 b. over the rates of this
day week for most descriptions of duty paid Foreign
Wheats, the sales effected were to a moderate, but not
extensive amount.

Home made and Irish Flour realized an advance of 2s.
per sack, and free States, as well as Canadian, must be
noted Is. per barrel dearer, accompanied by a fair de-
mand for each.

Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, continued in steady,
but not in lively, request on the terms of last week.
Oats, though taken off sparingly, were the turn dearer;
and Oatmeal still meeting a good inquiry for investment,
about 3000 loads were sold for that purpose at an im-
provenaent of 9d. per load ; superior qualities of Irish
commanding 235.

CORN EXCHANGE, FEBRUARY lei.
We have no difference to notice in either Foreign or Colonial
duties, from those of last Week.

The arrivals of the past three days are exclusively of Fnglish
and Irish produce, furnishing a moderate quantity of Wheat
and Flour, a few parcels of Malt, and an increased supply of
Oats and Oatmeal, a change of wind having brought round se-
veral vessels previously detained on the passage, and more are
in this morning, but too late to admit the insertion of particu-
lars to-day.

In the intertal since Tuesday last the trade generally has
ruled very Mtn with a continued inclination towards improve-
ment ; and although not much business is reported for actual
consumption, we have had inquiries on speculation, with some
transactions in Oatmeal, as well as in bonded Flour on the
spot, and in Foreign Wheats both floating and for spring ship.
ment.

Having a very slender attendance of country buyers at our
Corn Exchange to-day, and no further speculative inquiries to
enliven the trade ; our local millers being also much less dis-
posed to purchase than of late, the transactions in any descrip-
tion of free Wheat this morning were upon a limited scale, and
in the value of English or Foreign no amendment was•obtaina-
bre': one or two small lots of very prime Irish, however, equal
in quality to the best runs of English red, and forming an.ex-
ception, exceeded our last quotations, whilst in ordinary kinds
'there was no improvement. Home made and Irish Flour
moved off slowly on the terms last noted, and all sorts. of Fo-
reign, duty-paid, were dull at 'former prices. ,Of floating
Wheats no further sales were reported today; and those of
bonded Flour, since Tuesday, have been confinedlo about 2,000
barrels, Philadelphia and Baltimore at 2is 3d, and Western
Canal at 24s 6d.

In Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, in any a which we had
little business done to.day, prices remained In-Marled.

Oats, though still held firmly, and rather higher rates required,
were not saleable beyond our last currency.—Oatmeal continued
in request, and 23s 6d to 23S gd per load would have been readily
paid for the best marks of Irish, but 24s being generally asked,
checked the demand, and prevented any extensive sales this
morning.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 17.
The tendency of prices during the week has been upwards,
ut the extent of business actually transacted in Wheat or
Flour, atan improvement on the rates of mu* last, has not been
considerable, the disposition among millers and bakers being
rather to fall back upon the stocks they hold, than follow the
advance further for the present.
The same remarks apply to Oats and Oatmeal.

At Liverpool and Wakefield yesterday, the trade evinced much
confidence; but a similar feeling prevailed to what we have
above noticed.

In the agricultural counties, and in Ireland. the advance
which has taken place is greater than can be realised in any of
the markets of this district.

The import list exhibits a good arrival of every leading article
of both English and Irish produce.
At this day's market the speculative disposition which pre-
viously existed appears to have subsided. Upon Wheat a small
improvement is required, but it is re 'Used only in partial in-
stances. Flour is per sack and barrel; Oatmeal is per load;
and Oats Id per bushel higher• Beans scarce, and, as well as
Malt, steady, at late prices.

The advance which we actually quote is firmly insisted upon
by holders. whilst purchasers pursue a cautious course, and the
business doing In every article is confined to moderate limits.

LONDON CORN-EXCHANGE, FEB. 12.
The supply of Wheat from all the near counties was very
limited this morning, but there was a fair quantity of Barley
from Essex, Kent, Suffolk, and Norfolk, with a good show of
Beans and Peas from Essex and Kent; and the fresh arrivals
of Oats were to a moderately fair extent, consisting of English,
Scotch, and Irish, having several vessels up since Friday. There
have been no importations in foreign Grain during the past
week, bat 1307 barrels Flour from New York, and 374 qrs. Lin.
seed from Calcutta. The weather has been very changeable
since this day se'nnight, alternately rain and frost, Owing to
the short supply of English Wheat. and early attendance of
town millers, the trade for this description was brisk, at an ad-
vance of 2s. per qr., and there was a good demand for free
foreign, at an improvement in value of is to 2s per qr. Ship
Flou was Is per sack dearer, with a fair sale. Malt was held
with more firmness and at full prices. Beans were taken off at
the currency of this day se'nnight. There was no alteration in
the value of Peas, but this article met a better sale. Oats
brought the rates of last Monday generally, the firmness of the
sellers. however, checked the trade, some of them holding for
the higher rates. In Linseed and Rapeseed not much passing,
hut both articles were quite as high. There was no briskness
in Cloverseed. The state of the weatherprocrastinating the de-
mand, prices were unaltered. Tares were taken slowly, at for-
mer rates.

criptions of Butter, and stock have become narrowed into a
small compass. Fresh Be'fasts, Kilkennys, and Carlows, are

quoted, with a moderate ship store demand. American pro-
visions (except the finest quality of Beef,) nominally as in our
last report. Prime Hams are scarce, and command full price ;-
56s being easily maintained for Belfast. Bacon 35s to 365,
being an advance of Is to 2s per cwt.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKE?, FEB. 16.
"—The demand this week upon the whole has been moderate,
and the transactions proportionably limited ; great steadiness
in prices has prevailed throughout, and we have not observed
any disposition on the parr of holders to press sales below last
Friday's quotations, which we now resume for all kinds; Spe-
culators have taken 11,60 bales of American, and 6503 Surat,
in all 18,100 bales; the trade 22,410 bales. Of the total sales
at least 12,000 bales were done on Saturday, and ;to 8000 on
Monday. To-day there is, if anything, rattier more enquiry,
and about 6000 bales is the estimate of sales, including 2000
American on speeulation : the market closes very steadily.
The steamer of the Ist instant is not yet up. The import this
week is 14,898 bales, and the sales 40,510.
