STATE OF TRADE.

Mosrenssrso.—Onr staple market is without any matelal
change, and the slight reduction that has taken place in 27-inch
power-loom printers, (say lid to 3d per piece from the highest
heavy sales have been made this week and stocks continue ex-
tremely light. 4'-inch shirtings, which were worse to sell than
any other width in printing cloth, are now in better demand,
and, many makers having turned from them to 27-inches, they
are now scarce in the maeket, particularly f6's, and the c mse-
quence is, that many manufacturers ar contracting to make at
even higher rates than last week. The print houses that arc
producing good prints were never know to be better emp oyed,
and block printers are bad to get almost everywhere We re-
gret to announce the temporary suspension of one of the most
respectable calico prin ers in this district but we are happy to
say, that the creditors have every reason to expect 20s in the
pound. for the house in question, when they found that they
only had a small amount above what they owed, were deter-
mined, after losing their own money, no to risk their creditors,
but immediately called them together to ask what they were to
do. 27 inch 6,,'s may be quoted 5s fo 5s 3d ; 66's, Cs 3d to 5s gd ;
and 72's Gs 3d to 6s 7id, and even 6s yd can be got fyr first-rate
cloth—Matithester Advertiser, of Saturday. •
LEKns —We have no change to note in the aspect of our
woollen markets. The same briskness of demand for new goons
continues, but there is the same slackness in the supply that we
have heretofore noticed, owing to the manufacturers being still
working to order. Prices have undergone no change worth
mention.

HUDDERSFIELD MArKET.—We had a very active market here
on Tuesday, arid all fresh goods readily found purchasers. The
late fine weather seemed to have inspired both merchant and
manufacturer with increase,' confidence as to the continued
briskness of trade for some time to come. The wool market
was proportionately active, but we note no alteration in cloths
or wool.

FiECKAIONDIVIKE BLANKET MARKET.—The demand for blan-
kets for home consumption still continues good. The demand
for exportation is very limited, the season for shipping being far
advanced.

HALIFAX 14IA Ric ET.—We had a numerous attendance of mer-
chants here on Saturday, who seemed to buy very freely both of
gocds and yarn. Prices were very firm, but there was no quo-
table advance.

BRADFORD MAnKET.—There is no slackening in the demand
fcr worsted and mixed fabrics, which meet ready sale as rapidly
as produced, at steady prices. For yarns alto the demand con.
t noes pretty uniform, and we have no alteration to note in
prices. There was rather more activity in the wool market on
Thursday, late prices being fully maintained.

ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET The market has been much
the same as for some weeks past ; perhaps with rather less in-
quiry for the coarser kind of goods. There has not been much
activity in the wool market, and no change in prices.
LEICESTER.—The past week has been quiet as regards wools,
the stocks on hand being heavy; and. judging from the state of
this and other markets, there does nut seem much probability
of their advancing further at present. The general trade is very
good, but presents no new feature since last week to call for no-
tice here.— Leicester Chronicle.'
HOSIERY AND LACE-TRADES.—We regret mbch to state, that
many of the master stockingers who are engaged in the manu-
facture of cotton hose, declare they never knew trade in a much
worse state, as employment cannot be obtained even for the
hosiers' frames. The expectations that have been for some time
so loudly cherished of a demand for this description of goods for
hina lias not been realized, nor do we consider, from what we
have learnt from persons who have acted as supercargoes to
India vessels trading to that count y that this i, likely to take
place. The drawer branch is a shade further improved, but not
to the extent of giving full employment to thi : description of
work people. The coton cut-up hose trade is in an extreme
dull state ; and many of the masters have to dance long attend.
ances upon the warehouses for material. The silk hosiery trade
is in the most deplorable condition ; and we hear of nothing but
misery and privations amongst this once flourishing body of
workmen, who are certainly the most de,-re-sed of any body of
operatives in the kingdom, not even excluding the Spitalfields
weavers. The bobbin.net trade is still dull, and nets even of the
best patterns are not in full demand. The warp lace branch is
in much the same -tare as it had been in for the last few weeks,
partaking a little of the general dulness, which was to be ex-
pected.—Nottingham Journal.
