Oilmen's Stores Though some large sales have been
recently effected, the demand continues good at a fair
advance on invoice prices.

Drapery—ln consequence of excessive importations,
and the compulsion to sell, which in- some cases exists
on account of advances made on the English side, many
classes of goods are largely accumulating on the hands
of vendors, and the market has an overdone pressure.
Still descriptions in season are realising 30 per cent. on
.invoice.

on useful assortments.
