STATE OF TRADE.
LEEDs.-Thc demand noticed for tho last few
weeks NJ both our halls as having been coed, rs,
tins week, NuI of tutlng nature, but vet, in the
warehouses, there continues to be a soed business
doing. IL would seem as if the manufacturers had
almost ceased to purchase at the halls; indeed 1t is
EVIDENT that goods are now than ever carried
directly from the manufacturer to the merchant, but
! THIS may he, rs is thought by many, only proof
that goods are made to order ard showing healthy
state OF things.
| MANCHESTER, Friday Evenins.-we are not SO
busy IN our cloth market on TINS day week, and
especially so since Tuesday; the daily diminishing
production, however, gives the market great firm
ness, and the full rates of Tuesday readily OBJ
tanned. Yarns are IN good demand, hut prices do
not rally. There are some spancrs, however, who
VIII not sell at previous rates, and the market closes
firmly.
HuBDERsFIELp, Tucsi ,y.--This was compara-
uNeiy MT market, although, IN some descriptions
of iIncIes, heavy sales were made at lair prices.
But recent failures in Manchester and other places
nave caused mIsssIvInss, which operate uniayora
nlY, by inducing degree Of caution and umidlty
that tends To paralyze business. PIECES however
are hrrn, and tsr general business Is doing IN the
warehouses.
HALIFAX, Saturday-There wrsa fair demand
to day for most kinds Of goods, and stocks not beng
over heavy, aud advance Is looked ior with
continuance of the present demand. Yarns and
WOO without change.

LEICESTER TRApE.-The demand for goods is
duLl Tor the season. T.e husers complain of the

IN price.

printing IN the ncighbuuns towns ct Manchester is
