THE DRY GOODS BUSINESS.


| There is not much movement just now among our
| Dry Goods people, (says the New York Tribune OF
last Tuesday, this is very dull season OF the year
| for them There are, however, some buyers from
the South and West in town, who are looking about
! among The assortmcnts The commission houses in
Broad and Pine streets receiving goods from
the manufacturers, but do not offer any great induce
mrn to baycrs, either in the way of variety or pri-
| ccs. The importers are yet doing but little.
French importers not exposing their samples, and
do not talk if they expected desired much bust
| ness this season. The United States, which was TO
leave Havre the 10th July, is said to have very
large cargo. As however, production has been near
| ly stopped in France, the imports cannot be very
large from that quarter. Many of the Continental
goods which formerly through France, are
now received via Liverpool, the shippers
willing to trust them in that disturbed country
Within the last seven or eight days 26 ships, with
5000 packages of Dry Goods, have arrived here.
large portion of these goods wcrt not regularly i'm
ported but have been cons gned TO this country by
the manufacturers, who find other mark cts open 10
them in the pres disturbed state of Continental af
fairs. This is the material thing which we have to
fear during the coming scason--the flooding of this
market with goods manufactured for other markets
now closed, and which goods will be sacrificed here
to raise money. 1t is true shall get manu- featured
goods probably very cheap, but while our exports of
produce are small and prices low, these sales will
cause it is not unlikely, before the is over,
another drain of specie like the we have just
come out Of The exports from Liverpool for the 10
weeks ending Jane 10, to the United States, compar
ed with same time last year, show falling off of
l46 900 packages, but we fear the amount will in
crease toward the end of the season.
The quantity of Goods sent to the United States
from England, for the months ending with June 10,
is as follows being table complied from Du Fay's
circular for the DrU Goods Reporter:
