LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, Friday, Sept. H.
At our market this morning few thousand bushels
offoreign wheat were taken for Irish account but
I, having slender attendance of town and country
millers, the demand for consumption was limited
yet, for all descriptions of this grain sellers were
firm, and our last prices therefore, remain unyarled
The general runs Of Irish -four although in slow re-
quest, maintained late prices, and prime marks Of
new were held on rather higher terms; whilst Cana
dian and States, duty paid, moved less freely Than
before, and merely sustained their previous valuei
superior western brands, in bonds, however, con-
unued TO meet good inquiry and several thousand
barrels changed hands at 27s To 2Ss the trade clos
ing at about 27s. sd. per barrel. Barley, malt,
beans, and peas, upon a moderately fair demand,
supported the full rates last noted. Indian corn eX'
citing much less attention to-day than heretofore,
barley upheld It's previous value. Oats, from actual
scarcity were 3D. to Sd. per bushel dear again TO-
day, and oatmeal was in steady request at former
prices.
LIVERPOOL MAREETs, SEPT. .llTH-ProyisiOns-
American.-During the week which has elapsed
since our last circular have very little change TO
/ notice in our produce market save in corn. The
| weather has continued extremely fine and fayora-
BILE, and the last remnants Of the harvest have been
safely secured and housed but the confirmed loss OF
| the potato crop, with The heavy end steady con
sumption Of all kinds Of food, have caused consid-
erable advance in price, and large Quantities have
| changed hands on speculation at the following
prices; Western canal -four, 2ss.; in bond, 30s. to
3ls. duty paid Indian corn, Ais. to AS per quarter;
wheat also is 3s per quarter dearer and lndan meal
has realized 22s. to 23s. per barrel The arrivals
are large, and all the accounts from the States lead
US TO expect vast supplies from thence, at prices
which VIII he remuneratlye 10 shippers. We
must confess would look at this rapid rise with
great caution and advise prudence 70 all shippeps in
| trusting 10 these prices, as the changes on both
sides OF the Atlantic have prepared to
| supply our wants, which no doubt will he large,
| but which the abundance Of the United States can
fully supply. Beef and pork continue in steady
demand, without alteration value. Good cheese
scarce, and wanted. Lard has further advanced
To 2a., and we have considerable inquiry for lnseed

State OF trade In the manufac acturing dis |
| tricts.
| We have received the following reports respect
ing the state Of trade in the manufacturing districts
since the sailing of the Cambria
MAscHEsTER.-Thore wus rather less animation
in the market this week. The prices of goods were
fully maintained, and in cases. further ad-
| vance was demanded by manufacturers, though, we
believe, not acceded to by purchasers; that the
quantity of business transacted not large. The
yarn market was not quite firm, and some spin |
| ners who last week denied advance, accepted |
| orders at previous rates.
RocHDALE.-We have had a better demand for |
Flanrels at prices much the same those Of the |
| previous week. The wool market has been slack |
| and the business transacted has been upon upon |
very limited scale Middng priced wool is ex-
tremely scarce, and difficult to meet with.
HUDpERsFrELD-A slight improvement has taken
place last market day, although there have not
| been many heavy sales. The warehouses; have been
rather buster during the week. But little doing in
| the wool market.
| LEEps-There has been scarcely an average
quantity doing at cloth halls; but since the great
er part of business is chiefly transacted by direct
deliveries from the manufacturers to the merchants,
our markets do not afford just criterion as to the
general tone of business, which may be said to be
| much the same as hitherto
NoTrNeHAM.-The branches ofthe hosiery trade |
which carried on in this town and its suburbs
have, with few exceptions, got considerably worse
| and little is heard amongst the poorest class but
| want Of work, and want of money, by the small
| tradesmen. The bobbnet trade may be considered
as considerably improved, particularly in plain nets
most of the German houses being actively preparing
for the ensuing October Leipsic fair. The cotton
wstp lace trade keeps gradually improving, the
| frames being slowly put to work, while some are
working long hours The silk branch is depressed.
The may be said Of the bobbinet silk trade,
which, on the whole, is very dull.
LElcEsTER.--There is fair average demand for |
the home trade; and though it is now "between
season. as regards the American and continental
markets, unable to perceive any symptoms
in this locality of those "disastrous' circumstances
which some Of the metropolitan and provincial pa
pers declare to have resulted to the manufacturing
districts from the passing of free trade. Indeed there
is every prospect in the home demand continuing
good while from the country hands having been
mostly engaged in the fields during the last month |
little or no work has been brought in from the vii |
ages and stocks of wrought hose are, consequently
very low. Prices Of material remain stationery and
firm.
BRApFoRD.--There is full supply of all kinds Of
combng wool in the market, but sales are difficult
to effect, prices generally ruling too high TO induce
the spnners to buy freely. The demands for yarns
continue to improve, both for export and home con-
sumption. We are glad to learn that spinners gen |
orally are obtaining an advance; spinning for many
months past has been a most ruinous trade. There
is steady business doing in all kinds of piece Goods
suited to the approaching season; manufacturers are
for the most part making to order. Prices fully
| maintained.
