STATE OF TRADE

MANCHESTER.—The only new feature to be noticed this week
is that a greater amount of business has been done where parties
would concede a little in price. We hear of several manufactu-
rers that have to buy their yarns who are working short time,
and others have stopped their looms altogether, rather than buy
yarn even at the present price, which is full 2d per lb. reduced
from the highest point. Spinners are still doing well, and yarn
is better to sell than goods. The printers and country houses
are complaining, but we do not think they are worse off than
they usually are at this season of the year. One thing will ope-
rate in favour of manufacturers, that printers are very light in
stock, having lately only bought from hand to mouth ; and the
manufacturers being light in stock also, we think cloth is at the
lowest point for the present. Prices as follows :-27-inch 6o's,
4s to 4s 43d ; 66's, 4s 6id to 5s 3id : and 72's, 55 3d to 5s gd ;
9-8 66's, 5s 6d to 5s gd : and 72's 9.8 6s 6d to 6s 9d; 5.4 or 45 inch
66's. gs 3d to gs gd ; and 72's 95 gd to l 0 64.
LEEDS.—A steady business, principally in goods for spring
exportation, continues to be done by the foreign houses; and
the home trade, considering the season of the year, is tolerably
good. Our markets at the Cloth Halls both on Saturday and
Tuesday were a shade brisker than the corresponding markets
of thn two preceding weeks. Prices remain firm, and the ope-
rative manufacturers are pretty well employed, but not quite to
the same extent as the same period last year.

BRADFORD.—There is little difference in the state of the
worsted trade here from the depression we noticed last week.
But a small amount of business was done in the Piecz-hall on
Thursday ; prices, however, do not fall. Everything in the
Yarn department is flat; and the disposition to run short time
is no way lessened during the week ; indeed, we think the num-
ber of unemployed or partially employed operatives has in-
creased since our last report. In Wool but little business is
doing, and chiefly in matching sorts, of which the supply in the
market is fully equal to the demand. Low Hogs and Wether
Wool may be had a shade cheaper, but in slow request, with a
good supply in the hands of the brokers.
HALIFAX.—We have had an average attendance of merchants
at la,t market. They bought very sparingly, owing to the firm
prices wanted by the manufacturers. Wool continues rather
flat, without any alteration from last week's prices. Our spin-
ners keep tlrmselves bare of stock, and only purchase to supply
their present wants.
HVDDERSFIELD.—A moderate amount of business was trans-
acted in our market on Tuesday, without any marked alteration
in prices. Our manufacturing operatives are pretty well em-
ployed, but not so fully as they were at this period last yea►.

HECK3IONDWIES BLANKET MARKET.—The attendance of
merchants this week has been good, and the demand for Blan-
kets was tolerable. Prices remain without alteration.

WAKEFIELD WOOL MAEKET.—SaIes are as doll as possible
in both Long and Short Wool, but the stocks offering here ar'e
not heavy for the season, and the stock in growers' hands being
also unusually light, and held at higher rates than can be real-
ized in these markets, there is an indisposition to force sales,
and although some parti,s are willing to accept of rather lower
terms, holders generally are disposed rather to keep than accept
of less prices.

ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET.—There has been a dull mar-
ket on Monday, and the prices obtained were less than those of
the previous Monday. The Wool market was also inactive, but
firmer prices were fully maintained.

Host uRY AND Lacs TRADES.—The condition of the wrought
cotton hosiery branch, notwithstanding winter is rap dly ap-
proaching, does not get worse, but if anything ;keeps slowly
improving. The silk trade is still in ti depressed state; but there
is some improvement in fancy silk gloves. There is no material
alteration in the warp lace trade. The cotton still continues in
a most deplorable -torte ; but the silk keeps its preponderance,
though rather dull. Many fancy goods, of a good quality. are,
however. made from this description of machinery.—Notting-
ham Journal.
