Manchester, Feb. 20.—The Guardian, In Its commercial article, says: The recovery of silver exchange has Imparted a more hopeful feeling and checked the decline, rather than having the efrect to bring about an actual Im provement. Some buyers are disposed to offer moro freely, but rarely enhance bids, and some producers are less eager to consider inquidies. Thfc latest Eastern telegrams do not report any improve ment In trade. The resolution of the master cotton spinners of the Bolton dis trict to join the Federation and notify their employes of a reduction of 6 per cent, in wages Is regarded as of much Importance to the industry generally, and Is widely believed that It will lead to _ combined action In Oldham and other districts In a similar direction, resulting In the early Issuance of a general notice of reduction. The feeling has become •widespread among the masters, that the general depression and the accumulation of supplies, arising from the rclmposltlon of'Indian duties and the low rates of exchange will abundantly Justify the Wh’I’g snd L.
