STATE OF TRADE.

MANcitEsma,—There has been scarcely any change in the
market during the meek as regards either demand or prices.
No activity is visible in. any dep. rtment of our export trade,
the prevalent feeling being to abstain from all operations beyond
what are necessary for the supply of immediate and urgent
wants. The uneasiness and apprehension experienced during
the middle of the week regarding local disturbances have, in a
great measure, passed away.
LEEDS.—The woollen trade of this town and disrrict, is with-
out material alteration since our last. A fair amount of busi-
ness continues to be done, and during the week some purchases
have been made tot the American market ; but by the conti-
nental.. houses little is doing. •Prices are considered very low,
and stocks are not heavy.

HALIFAX--PieCeS: We have had more business doing on
Saturday than we have had for some time back, but still at very
low prices. Yarns still remain in a very dull state, the demand
being extremely limited. Wool is only in small demand, owing
to many of the mills running two and three days per week.
BRADFORD.,—WOOI: The absence of business, during the
turmoil of the week, has not only affected the consumption,
but also the purchase of all kinds of combing wools, which have
been very dull. There is no material increase in stocks, or
alteration in rrices. Noils and brokes in steady request, at
former rates. Yarns : We cannot note any, improvement in
this branch of the trade. The demand continues dull, and the
prices so unremunerating as to retard any increase in the pro-
duction. Pieces : There is about the same doing in piece goods
as for some time past."fhe quantity coaling to market is
limited, and stocks on the decrease. The current prices for
paramattas and orleans forbid their manufacture ; and fancy
goods, unless they are new in style, will not realize prime cost.
But the policy of the manufacturers, in making only to order,
has prevented losses which would otherwise have occurred.
HUDDERSFIELD.—We have had very little doing in our
market this week, no one buying anything but what they want
for immediate use, and that is not a great deal at this season.
We arc still of opinion that our prospects for the autumn trade
are very favourable. Prices are still. very low.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET.—The flannel market this
week has been in a languid state; very little business has been
done, and pieces of some sorts of goods were sold at lower
prices than last week. The wool market was flat, and manu-
facturers would only purchase for present use. Prices rather
lower than last week.
HOSIERY AND LACE TRADES.—The cut-up stocking branch
still continues brisk, and the hands have made a slight attempt
at an advance of wages ; but this was only partially acceded to,
and the hosiers, feeling it as a check, gave out materials with a
very sparing band.—The drawer, pantaloon, and shirt branch
has not improved in the same ratio as the stocking branches,
many of the frames being still short of employment. The
cotton glove trade is still in a very improved condition, but
this is attributed to the glove hands having turned out, to avoid
an abatement in their wages. The plain silk glove branch is
still in a very fair condition, the hands in general having em-
ployment; but the other silk branches are in a most depressed
condition.—The cotton lace trade is certainly improved, not
only in demand, but what is of greater importance, in the me-
thod of conducting it. The pusher trade has so far improved,
that we have heard of a few pusher machines being actually in
the course of construction. Two years since this would have
been thought an impossibility.—A considerabl6 trade is carried
on in making bobbin lace from white bleached cotton, in which
bleached flax-thread is introduced in various patterns.—The
silk bobbin trade is still pretty good, and, if anything, increas-
ing.—The'muslin laces still keep their ground. Several lace •
workmen have arrived from Lyons; they give a very sorry de-
scription of the Lyonnese manufacturers, who have reduced
wages even beneath the Nottingham prices. 'k hey describe tile
Lyonnese workmen as a body of resolute, tall, powerful men,
who feel keenly the injuries to which they have been subjected.
The lace-workmen from Vienna are now on their way home.—

CELEBRATED THROUGHOUT THE GLOBE.
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.
CURE OF FISTULOUS SORES AND PLEURISY.
Extract of a Letter from Mr. Robert Calvert, Chemist, Stokes-
leg, dated September 3d, 1847.
To Professor HOLLOWAY. _ __ _ _

Si n,-Liii:fitornPSOll, National Schoolmaster of this Town,
desires me to send you the particulars of his Son, who had been
bad for three years and a half, and has received the greatest
benefit by the use of your Pills and Ointment. He is of a scro-
fulous constitution : a pleurisy had left a large collection of
matter in the chest ; this eventually formed a passage through
the wales of the chest, and ended in three fistulous sores which
discharged large quantities of pus, when he was induced to try
Your Pills and Ointment ; at this date he was apparently in a
dying condition, the stomach rejected every thing it took.
our Pillsand Ointment had the effect of completel ycnring both
the cough and stomach affections, his strength and flesh are
also restored, his appetite keen, and digestion good. There is
every prospect that a little further continuair:e of your medi-
cines will finish the cure. (Signed) ROBT. CALVERT.
The " Mofussulite" Newspaper, published at Meerut, has, on
the 15th October, 1847, copied an article from the " Benares
Recorder," of which the .following is an kxtract :
"The Prince of MAHARAJAH BISSONATH SINGH, who was
temporarily residing at Chittercote, was suddenly taken ill with
Spasmodic Colic, and during his illness His Highness often
asked for Holloway's Pills and Ointment, as he had heard much
of their virtues, but none could be obtained in the neighbour-
hood, and Professor Holloway, no doubt, unfortunately loses a
certificate which would have gracel I.nd dignified his list of
cures." _ .

The native Princes are now using Holloway's celebrated Pills
and Ointment in preference to every other medicine, they being
go wonderfully efficacious in the cure of diseases in India.

DEA ft Sin,—Having' devoted my attention for some years to

that I have in various cases recommended the use of your Pills
and Ointment, and invariably found them to have the most
perfect effect in removing those diseases.
