FOREIGN IMPORTS OF l852.-The fiscal year,
which closed on the 3Oth ult., il is thought, will
exhibit an import trade less by eleven and
quarter millions Of dollars than during the proceed
ing year. There has been falling of in the I'M
portations of dry goods at New York, the receipts
of which port form tine basis for this supposltion,
of more than eleven per cent, compared with the
year before The falling off in dry goods, was
owing in part to the cheapening Of cotton fabrics
and in part to the very poor returns to importers
and consigning manufacturers the past fall. The
general merchandise column has been kept up,
and slightly increased by of the demand for
foreign sugars, coffee, teas and railroad iron.
The total receipts at the Philadelphia Custom
house, however, for the first half Of the current
year sum up 81 1896 Os, against 81 $3.50 ,489 IS,
Ior the same period last year. Increase S35, 74o
43. At this rate of increase the cash receipts Tor
the year will exceed, by $4,000, the receipts OF
