STAKE OF TRADE

MANCHESTER.—During-the past week a steady business has
been done in goods, .and the market shows. increased'firrnuess.
The improvement of the weather, together with the intelligence
of the arrangement of awarmistice in Schleswig, have had a
manifest effect, and therehave been some considerable sales of
goods. The yarn market continues dull, but if the armistice
which has been agreed upon at Malmo should be ratified, an

immediate improvement may be expected. We are glad to
learn that the commercial advices from India, by .the mail just
arrived, are more satisfactory than had been anticipated, They
have led to considerable business for that market.
ROCHDALE.—There bas.heen a very good demand here for
dyed flannels, middle qualities, and strong Yorkshire goods.
Fine grey flannels were more inquired after than for several
weeks past. Prices of all sorts of flannels were much the same
as on the previous week. .Owing to the annual wakes very little
wool has been sold, but prices are firm. The hands employed
in the flannel business have full work.

LEEDS.—The improved state of the weather has made the
woollen trade a little more buoyant than it was last week, and
a good amount of business, at late prices, has been done this
week, both in the public Cloth Rails and at the warehouses.
'Stocks are not heavy; and manufacturers are acting with great
caution, seeking only to meet the demand. Many of them are
working to order.

BRA6FORD.—WOOIs :—There is no change worthy.of notice
to report. Stocks are fully maintained, and in prices no alte-
ration. The colonial wool sales in London are progressing
with more animation than was anticipated, considering the
immense quantity (36,000 bales) which will be offered before
the sales terminate. Yarns :—Both coloured and plain yarns
.confinue to be freely used by the manufacturers for the home
trade, but there is no improvement with the shipping houses.
Prices remain stationary. Pieces :—The brisk demand for
fancpcoloured goods, as well as for Paramattas and Orleans,
still.continues; there are no stocks in the market, and the
manufacturers are principally working to order. Prices gene-
rally are very steady, with a satisfactory business doing.-
1 IHAlawc.—We had but a thin attendance in the Piece Hall
on Saturday, and nut many goods changed hands. There is a
little more doing in yarn, chiefly for the continental markets;
but the,shipping houses are very cautious in giving out orders,
and prices, though steady, are very low. Deep-stapled wools
are selling rather more freely, at old rates ; but the staplers
only purchase to meet present wants. As some of the principal
spinnersare.ranning longer hours, short wools are becoming
a little moreabandant in supply, but without any alteration in
price.

HUDDERSE.TEA,D.—There has been a quiet market this week,
for the season ‘of the year. The demand fur fancy goods, suit-
able for the autumn and winter, has been fair, but for staple
goods very limited.
NOTTINEMAK.—The cotton hosiery trade still keeps in a fair
condition, but not so brisk as it was a few months since. Upon
the whole, the English lace trade is certainly a shade improved,
and we have been gratified with seeing commission agents once
more' appearing in the characters of blanketeers, with large
bundles on their backs. The warp lace trade is certainly not
worse either in silk or cotton. The attempt to make worsted
lace in Nottingham fell off almost suddenly—we cannot but
think there is a good opening for this article. Velvet lace is
not wholly abandoned.

- New York advices to the 16th ultimo, state some advance in
the currencies for Flour and Grain, particularly Indian. Corn,
with moderate stocks of each article in hand. Quotations

38s. to 435. 6d. per 4801 b. ; Corn Meal 145. 6d. to Iss. per hit,
without freight.
In accordance with-the foregoing observations, we had a very
languid market to-day for nearly every article of the corn
trade.—All descriptions of English, Irish, and duty-paid fo-
reign Wheats, upon a slow lingering sale to consumers alone,
-declined 3d. to 4d. per 701 b. ; and bonded, as well as floating
