MONTHLY COMMERCIAL REPORT. 
RITISH Manuracroures.—The cotton manufactures of Manchester, Preston, -&c. are 
not quite so active as they were at the publication of our list. Report; a circumstance 
which may be attributed to the rapidity wherewith the Americun vess-ls were freighted on 
the first suspension of the Non-intercontse Act: there are, consequently, but few ships of 
the United States in Liverpool, and otHer ports; in addition to which, the merchants are exe | 
‘tremely backward in engaging freight, from its being supposéd that the operation of the act 
just mentioned will «lmost immediately be renewed, 
The No wich manufacturers cease not to complain of the dearth of work; and we are 
sorry to learn that fadrics of shaw!s in that cit ae the decline. 
It is said chat some orders have been received at Birmifgham and Wolverhampton from 
the Norch of Europe 3; we sincercly hope they are considerable. 
IRELAND —The lines: manufactures, as well as those of liwn and cambric, are in as 
flourishing a state as they have beeo for yea:s past, TheIrish linens have completely sup- 
planted the produce of the German manufactures ; and the cambric and lawn wrought in the 
province of Ulster, may safely defy competition in point of quality, whether on the part of 
France or Fianders There have been some failures of consequence at Dubiin. which we 
understand may prove of serious cons< quence te the majority of treders in that city. The 
merchants here have hees lately surprised by the mnexpected arrival of a Danish vessel, un. 
der Danish colours. It seems that in covsequence of licences-being granted to the noithern ° 
vess“Is by the Briti'h government, several more may be looked for from the same quarter. 
O’Conner and Moore, as well as some other the houses at Dubiin, engaged in the West 
India trade, are doing a fine stroke cf business : 
East InbiesandCartwa.—Under this head, we have the datisfaction to announce the safe 
arrivalof he following vessels: namely, Canton, Fxeter, Alnwick Castle, Winchelsea, Elphin- 
stone,-Ocean, Royal George, David Scott, Ceres, and Dorsetshire, from Gitaas Essex, 
Thomas Grenvilie, and Watmer Castle, from China ind St. Alena ; and Qaermarthen frem

West Inpres —Cotton-wool, of the different islands, varies in price from ts. gd. to

~ The article is in considerable demand; but the holcers, under the idee of an adva ce taking

the m-rket there has become in a manner inu neues with dimost eve ry class of goods, and 
that the duties of 34 percent. on imports, ans rok per ce t. on exports were revived. In ad-
