Of the Rochester City Bank, vice c. 7. Amsden'
resigned.
The demand for Dry Goods is not so ac-
tive as was anticipated BY the inquiry making
and the transactions are individually small. There
il an increasing disposition to sell on the part oil
holders, with much b6ckwardness to buy any ous
the smallest parcels for more immediate wants.
owing to the falling condition Of the Cotton mar
ket aud to the rising prices OF the Wool market
The fall in the one aud the advance IN the otheF
seem to produce the same effects. Consumption
ia reduced to the smallest amount on the part oil
dealers, who carefully avoid stock; still the aOl'
itv to consume throughout the country is great
and occasions a eady. quiet unobtrusive demand
which in these days Of Railroads can be satisfied
with less risk of loss from stock, by more closely
as regards time, accommodating the supply to the
demand. Bleached Sheetings and Shirtings show
a steady, moderate demand, bat only for small
parcels for which previous prices are paying
Holders are not firm where large parcels can be
placed; but there are no large buyers. I'm"
bleached goods are dull and heavy no sales OF
consequence are making. Prices are not remu'
nerative, and were not the stock moderate, would
fall seriously. Holders, however, are willing TO
concede on the heavy goods. Drills are lower,
with good demand, especially for shipping
The stock of Osnaburgs is so much reduced as to
firmly uphold prices. The demand is limited
Denims exhibit tendency to decline In the alb
sence of any ma erial demand. Stripes are dull
and heavy. Ticks are without active inquiry, and
prices are heavy except for the lower qualities,
which are scarce and firm. Printing Cloths are
easier in price, yet without considerable sales
The demand flags while holders are willing sellers
at a slight reduction. Prints have decliaed; with
an increasing stock, there being no active de-
mand. Ginghams are in good demand and fully
equal to the supply. Chambrsys are in moderate
demand at steady prices. There is a limited bus
mess doing in Lawns at steady prices. The sup
ply is large and of varied assortment. Cotton
Pantaloonery is dull at easier prices. De LANES
are in small but steady request at firm prices,
the supply being limited TO the limited demand
Linseys are more steady in price yet not in much
demand, while the free supply keeps prices in
check. Cloths are rather dull, yet fair business
is doing at steady prices, though not answering
to the buoyancy of the raw material. Fancy
Cassimeres meet q fair inquiry at steady prices.
Plain styles and blacks are in moderate demand.
Mixtures are most wanted. Satinets are selling
to a very fair extent without great activity
Prices are at present without change, though a
brisk demand would carry them up. Sleeps
Grays are light in stock, and in moderate demand
at steady prices The supply is falling Off
Tweeds are firm and in good request. Jeans are
active at previous prices, which are firm. Elan
nels are in light demand butprices are advancing.
British Goods are more active than Domestcs-
The stocks have been increased by the late arri-
walls, which meet a good demand. The assert
ment is much improved. Prices. are steady from
the prudent limitation in the prices, though the
cent winds have brought into port considerable
number of vessels, kept back by unfavorable
weather. and consequently the amount of Goods
taken for consumption is larger this week than
last. There is not much activity in French Goods.
Silks are in moderate stock both Of plain and fancy
styles, and prices steady. There is yet good
business before the Trade in the season. as the
heavy purchases for Summer consumption have
yet to be made. In all descriptions of Goods the
trade doing is marked by its limitation to small
purchases though numerous and consequently 1t
will be more protracted than in former years.
