harmonious action, based information aud knowi-
edge. which cannot be attained except through ~
association established for that purpose
This association, with concentration Of action
necessary TO accomplish any important result with -
organization snilnr to that which has been NJ long
established in Manchester. Bradford and Leeds wcsld
not only correct many of the evils of present sys-
tenn, but would ultimately place the whole manufac-
turing interest on more permanent basis, aud thus
secure Ms measuraby against those periodical changes
which ,uior Il would afford information respect
ing the quality and quantity Of goods required, and
manufacturers could adapt their looms any given fab
re with advantage Themselves AMI not ruin the busi-
ness Of Others; thus doing away with ruinous hons
competition, which has proved disastrous as ioreg,
competition Accurate reports respecting all competing
markets won, call the attention OF the manufactures
to certain styles OF good which be produced on
our present machinery, but at this time supplied
by the foreign manufacture The law Of supply And

immediate cause has ceased.
DrRiings.
The private lett ,rs from China by the Persia, state
that The nsws of the treaty was not generally credited
in Canton, AMI in view Of large shipments Of Drills
from THE country, the price not maintained al
dulness prevailed in the market. Some large opers-
ton, have been made here by outside speculstoss,
but the exporters have not confidence to opersts
largey. We quote heavy 3-inoh $50 40 pr. Drill -
slc., A.inch Drills are selling moderately for homs
consumption.
Brorn Sheet,ags and Shvt,ags.
37-inch heavy Sbeetings, 1872, 2.% yards 10 tho

wide, are in great demand for conversion" and net
TIE manufacturer IL v cent more than heavy goods.
Au Important item in the ne. cost Of manufacturing
good, was omitted by Of contemporaries in his
estimate Of yesterday. 1t is well known that every
careful Manufacturer who would have his balance
sheet accurate, carries 10 cent the cost Of his
machinery yearly into his expense account, as II
vould BE- worthless at the end Of that time.
