Whiskey-Is increasing in demand
and the price has improved. The APP
prehension of overwhelming supplies
from the Susquehanna, has tended to
depress the price through the whole
summer. This apprehension no longer
exists, and the probable high prices Of
Corn and Rye, both of which are regu-
larly improving, have tendency to en-
nance the market price of this article.
Tue present holders meet quick sales
for cash at our rates. The inspection
of whiskey for the week amounts to 790
barrels and SfS hogshsads; of which 6

Dry Goods.--The public sales for the
past week of dry goods Of British ia
brics, have bean very large, amounting
to more than 100000. We know ofno
description which has brought an adj
vance on the present New York and
Philadelphia prices, and many leading
articles, as prints, cloths, ilannels, bal
zes and plaids, have sold at less prices
than the same descriptions and costs
are bringing in those cities. In Ameri-
can goods the sales have been very IL
mited, as our buyers are notyes prepar-
cd to pay the prices obtained at the
large eastern sales--sueh brown lotions
as have been sold, have been at about
five per cent less, and bleached at Z !
per cent less than eastern prices
French, Italian, Russia and China goods
have. so far as We have been able to
procure information we could rely on,
brought the same PRICES his IN other
cities east OF US. The supply in this
market of these goods, is large, and the
assortment better than usual.
Domestic Goods. Our own manu-
facturers briDginto the marketexcellent
cotton goods, which they will soon be
enabled to sell at moderate prices, as
the raw material which constitute, so
large an item Of the whole cost IS daily
getting lower. The New England man
ufacturers also are well aware Of the
advantageous situation of our city for
sales of domestic dry goods, and keep
always here the most commanding as
sentiments.
