MANCHESTER, July 1S.-The Guardian SAYS:
Ihere Is extreme quietness in most depart
ments. Prices as a rule are steady, yet there is
some weakness in a few cases, which has been
more frequently manifested in yarns than in
cloth. This weakness has not induced any inn
portant Increase in business, however Buyers
40 not appear to possess many orders and
those they have received are to a great extent
impracticable. The demand as a rule is most
active for sorts that are already well sold. In
curry for prints and fancy -colored woven grades
is poor, owing to unreasonable weather Busi-
ness for India has been MINISTERIAL There is
slight inquiry for China and for the east. A
few orders for ShirtngS of good quality, how
ever, have been executed at previous prices.
Manufacturers appear to be anxious sellers at
current rates. Export yarns are fiat and but
little business has been executed Inquiry is
light. Demand for the continent is poor. There
is no sign of activity in any of the clotn depart
mentS.N

Hubbard, Price & Co. S cotton circular saws:
| Increased animation and another upward turn
| on August contracts have characterized the
| market to-day. Some new buying took place in
| part on orders from the bull clique. but there
was mostly covering on foreign and local &C
| count. After an advance of 13 points on August
above last nights rates the demand fell off and
prices eased tritie, yet closing steady at al
most best prices. New crop followed the ad-
| vance only very slowly, and gained 2Q14 points
| in value, but und-r continued cheerful accounts
from the plant. selling on southern account re
| duced the cost to yesterdays figures. Spots
