Ihere Is an improved feeling in our manufacturing

their expectations as to prices
We find the following In the London Times oftbe 18th
of April. ' " '"' nv"
Extract Of letter from Manchester received vosto
Jay morning ON the subject of cotton cotton manu-
trade we cannot avoid coming to the conclusion that
very important advance in prices is about to take Mace
state Of TING money market may retard this advance
Dut we peleve firmly that 1t must come We ground
this belief on the following consderationsThe sunnlv
OF COTTON Will be ahortmuch below the requirements Of
all but inevitable. 80
That at present prices of cotton and manufactures
manufacturers and spinners are losing Mt rate vhch
cannot continue to prevail ~
Inat through decreased production stocks are lpht
naotwitnstanding the limited demand Some kinds of
uonGstics are the exception.
hat tne production is being still further decreased
Inc toiowng Is list of some important concerns

OAIord road twist Company, the Hanover Twist Com
pany surfing and Beckton; Simpson, Thompson and

Clark {? mlls) these all in Manchester There are
many others, and many more working short time: and
mn owners generally express determination to close
atogcther unless they succeed in forcing up prices ia
such point as would leave them free of loss
IL Is also to be noticed that the Eleven Hours Bill
comes INTO operation the LIST of May and that what
ever may be the ultimate effect the Immediate effect
VIII be equivalent to closing mill in - all over the
country. " w
That the general prospects the foreign trade of this
district are favorable Accounts received from America
lead to the belief that very large business will be done
from this to the United States for the fall trade t NAV
likely enough be overdone but the immediate effect on
prices will be the same ''' VII
from India accounts favorable and the fact TINT
the exports from this to Calcutta have been light for
the last four months leads to the conclusion that nrce
VIII rise there and large exports from this follow there
upon. ~
1t is true that the state of the money and food
tons may cause much embarrassment but II appears IT,
us that nothing short Of such position of these oues
lions az would set all ordinary estimates Of
NJ DEFIANCE can prevent prices from rising more or less
rapidly "a ~
Since writing thus far learn that cotton hos rsep
