MANCHESTER, Oct. 3.-The Guardian saws:
The sales yesterday were extremely scanty for
tuesday. No department did an average bust
ness. Inquiry was slack. China merchants
were looking around the market, seemingly
preparing for next seasons business, but they
were apparently deferred from actual opera
tions by the prices asked, which were some
what higher. India merchants had extremely
little practicable business. There were sn all
miscellaneous sales of minor foreign and home
markets. manufacturers insisted on full previ-
Gus rates or slight further advance, but they
did not seem anxious to sell much, in view OF
the unprofitable margin. and the high prices of
many kinds of yarn. Further stoppage of
looms curtail the production of cloth Yarn
was idle, especially export yarn. Cloth was
exceedingly inactive. Business of importance
was scarce. The distributing market seems As
yet not to be moved by lessened production,
showing that present supplies are ample
Printing and other finishing cloths were inactive
though firm, and sometimes rather dearer.
There was the same business in heavy goods
where sellers were easy, but there were no large
transactions"

Hubbard. Price q Co.'S cotton circular says:
Gables from Liverpool this morning showed
that the market was partially one point up, but
notwithstanding that fact our opening prices
for near futures were from one TO two points
lower than the close of yesterday. The market
advanced later on, however. Prices weakened
somewhat though the close was steady, with
slight falling off from yesterdays close The
receipts are at last beginning to show decided
increase and but little variation from those OF
this day last year is recorded. The quality also
is becoming satisfactory"
