STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER.—There is little of novelty to be observed to
our report of the state of the market this week, as compared
with the last. The extent of business is still limited, but we
may notice the gradual rise of a better feeling. owing as well
to the sett ement of affairs in the east as to the satisfactory ad.
vices from the United States. Prices do not vary from our last
quotations._ _

Lssos.—The Woollen trade of this town and neighbourhood
remains in much the same state of qu etness as we have had to
report for some time past. Until the question " What is to be
done with the new railway schemes," is answered? and the
Irish Coercion Bill, and the new Tariff Bill, are passed into law,
—if they are to be, of which there are some few who entertail
grave donbts,—no material change in the demand for our manu
factures is looked for. As we have repeatedly stated, stocks
are not low, and. with the care manifested by merchants, as
well as manufacturers, they are not likely to increase much.
Prices unaltered. _

HooDicasvumn.—There was another very quiet market here
on Tuesday, and not much business done, especially in the
Hall. There was a slight decline in the prices of some descrip.
Lions of goods, which, as now anticipated, have reached their
level. The stocks of desirable goods are but small, although in
low qualities there has been a slight accumulation during the
past month.

BRADFORD.—We are sorry to say that the staple trade of this
town continues in a very depre,sed state. The Yarn depart-
ment is in a shocking condition : for, though much has been
done, by limiting the supply, to get prices to a remunerating
point, the endeavour has as yet failed of accomplishing i s ob-
ject. For Wools there is little demand, but the prices remain
firm. But a small amount of sales were effected in the piece
market on Thursday. and prices were a shade lower than on
the previous market day.
Rocnom.B.—The market has been but thinly attended,
though it is tot tnight Monday. There has been considerably
less business done in Flannels than last Monday, with no
variation in prices. The Wool market still remains inactive,
and the, little business that has been transacted is at former
prices.

H OSI ERY-AND LACE TRADES.—The condition of the wrought
cotton stocking trade is now generally admitted to have im-
proved a shade or two, but not so much as to give effectual
relief. nor does it seem probable that it will, unirss fashion
shout take a turn in favour of this manufacture. The drawer
and pantaloon branch, so importart to this vicinity, it is con.
ceived ias improved in several quarters. The cotton glove
trade, especially for fine and costly gloves, is pretty good, and
msy be said to be brisk. The fancy bobbin-net trade is still in
a most lamentable condition, and many good workmen are out
of emp oy, with but faint hopes of relief. In the midst of so
much gloom, we understand that the fancy bobbin-net trade is

pretty good in France, which gives some hope that this will
extend to Great Britain, as hitherto they have kept a sort of
even pace; but the hope is considerably checked by the report
that in many articles c•f finished machine laces, foreigners are,
at length, beneath even our ruinous prices. This can only be
accounted fc rby the system of bounties. The Warii.lace trade,
with the exception of a few Jacquard frames, and those em-
ployed in 'risking nets. gloves, and sleeves, are in a most
depressed state, and keep gradually declining.—Nottingham
