STATE OF TnAiw.

TRADE OF Laos.—The woollen cloth trade of this town and.
neighbourhood continues in a very healthy state. No alteration
in prices have been observable, but wether fleeces meet better
sale than they did some time ag0....
BRADFORD Mattatx.,-,The demand fory.oods at this market
on Thursday was fully as extensive as' bath been felt fur some
weeks past, and in the broader qualities there was a limited
supply, but narrow pieces were more easy to be met with. For
yarns of almost all qualities there was a good demand, but no
material change in prices was -effected.— The•wool market is
pretty good.
lluddersfield market on Tuesday was better than for some
weeks past in the demand for plain and other heavy cloths, but
fancy goods and articles of a heavier fabric were rather dull of
sale.

ROCHDALE, OCT. 12.—The're was a very active-market to-
day, the supply scarcely equal to the'demand. Low and middle
qualities were eagerly bought up, and there was a fair bus.ness
dune in the best sorts. The supply of middle qualities of wool
is by no means good; of the best qualities there is an abun-
dance.
