With reference to the silk market, the circular of
Messrs. Durst and Co. reports as follows :
Still nothing favourable to report as regards silk. The
daily businesa doing I. not inconsiderable, and importers
generally are not wanting in disposition to meet buyers. The
deliveries, too, show so further reduction ; indeed, for the
week just closed, mark rather an improvement. Still there
is so life is the trade. so present prospect of real improve-
ment, nothing to induce manufacturers to apply themselves
with apint, except only the comparatively moderate range
whieh prices have reached. In this they seem to have rya.
seeable ground for hope of cleaning material lois, if not
making a profitable result ; but there is nothing at present
to Show that they are prepared to extend their operations.
Japan silk continues to be the lending article. Seine few
parcels of the new China silk have been sold, bat nothing of
moment. lu Beep' silk we lave nothing new, probably
rather leas disinclination to use this class, but nothing to
warrant hops of any derided increase in the consumption.
