The Dry Goods trade, as regards private sales,
continues very inactive, while the auctions are in
full tide of activity. The earlier public sales
realized full prices but the demand falls of az the
offerings increase. Cotton Goods still dull.
number Of mills are reported to have stopped work
ing, with view ofreducing stocks the heaviness
ofstocks has caused further concession on shirt
ings These Goods command only q retail demand,
and prices, especially brown, are heavy even at
the decline. Printed Cloths are dull with heavy
stocks, but production is diminishing. Prints also
are dali, and stale goods are selling at decline
only fresh ones command fall prices. Mouslain de
Lane and Cashmere active, and the demand
fully equals the supply; prices are firm and the
production is on the increase. Drills sell only IL
retail quantities, there being no export demand.
Cotton flannels are in limited request, but the
small stock keeps prices up. Ginghams are
dull the recent heavy aales ct auction have
supplied the trade at low prices, and consequently
there ia little demand left, and prices are not
temunerative. There is disposition, however, to
sacrifice on American makes, TO get them into con-
sumption and supplant the foreign manufacture
Stripes have fallen oil in demand, yet there ia q
moderate consumption. Osnaburgs and Baggng
are dull Satinets have been in diminished yet
fair request at steady prices the sales at auction
here, interfering with the regular trade. Heavy

vious prices. Lingeys are dull GALES are making

only active regards styles The salos at auo-
ton have here again nterfered with the private

The stock is large and except for particular styles,
prices are not firm. Cloths are less In demand
with decline. The low priced German and Bel
gium cloths have been sold out Of the market Pr
lots and beavers are in less request French goods
have been active, but principally at auction where
large lines of good have sold readily at fair prices
In private sale however, there is nothing doing,
except for such styles as do no: appear IN the auc
ton rooms. Figured silks are scarce and firm, but
the bulk of the silks imported are heavy from ex
of stock, though they cannot be replaced from
France at present prices. Vevets of prime quail
ty, mantila in particular are IN active dam and

bons have sold freely as auction, realizing toll prices
at first but giving way subsequently, me STOCK
is heavy, and if not lold during the season depre
ciates rapidly, go that prices decline Nerlnos
sold to large extent at the public sale OF " ednes
