From the llrltlsh board of trade returns It Is shown that tlio total exports of worsted man ufactures to thu United States for the month of November amounted to 138,009 , nsulnst 1122,000 for the same month lust year , and that the total exports of manufactures of wool for thu same period amounted to 27,018 , BKuinst 41,481 for November , 1880. Tlio ex ports of woolen and worsted yarns for the month of November wcro valued ut 143 , com pared with 4,252 for the lame mouth last year. In the city of Cohocs , N. Y. , thcro arc thirty- four knlttlnR mills , which employ 4,523 per sons , and the Harmony cotton mills , employ ing 3,607 , making u total of 8,330 employes. The woolen mills use 00,000 pounds of wool a day and 4,00.1,000 pounds u year , and the Harmony eotton mills ube 50,000 pounds of cotton a day. The annual production of tlio knlttlns mills Is valued ai about * 15,000,000. About $10.000,000 worth of material Is used and $3,000,000 , Is paid In wages. The conl trade Is very slow nnd local deal ers do not look for any Improvement so lomj as the present weather continues. In the cast , though winter weather has for some tlmo been Invoked , now that a sample of It has come It Is not an unmixed blcsslnir. The main coal-carrylne lines , where tlioy uro not hope lessly blocked , cannot move many coal cars. A sharp snap of cold now , with vessels und carxtlcdup , means that the advantage ) will all boon the side of the retailer , but unless a good , fih arji , coldJamiary follows It Is to be feared tlinl the retailers and small manufac turing coiisumeiB will not bu over oilier to re plenish their stock In view of the experiences of tlio past two winters. In the Iron trade the ynnr 1800 will bo memorable for Its enormous tonnage , the out put of pig Iron reaching nearly ten millions of tons ; this has mainly KOIIO direct Into con sumers' hands , as very light stocks remain at any of the shipping points , Tim I.akoHiiporlor district produced f.500UGO tons of ore , which Is preatly In excess of any former season. 1'rlces throughout the your have rnledlow on manu factured Iron , and prices have been altogether disproportionate to the enormous business transacted. The tariff appears to have been no factor In the adjustnieiit of prices. The duties on many articles have been larcoly reduced without producing cnriospondlng chungo In prices here , became tlioy were already as low ns cost of material and wages would admit of , On the other hand , duties have been largely Increased without any cor responding advance In thoprlcoof the article. Cotton ties are an Instance of this ; they were .soiling prior to the now tarltr at $1.25 to $1.50 per bundle , und they arc quoted at the same prlcoBONDS WANTED BONDS Total Issues of CITIES , COUNTIES.
