The same paper thus notices the aspect Of the dry
goods trade:
We notice very little business transacting in first
hands A few cloths to cothiers and "A few silks of
standard qualities form the whole extent of it. The
obbers, who have constant nearby trade To serve,
are confined TO hand-to-mouth demand, as there is
no disposition to buy for stock. The importations OF
dry goods are now very small. There is large accu
mutation Of goods in bond which will begin to come
out in another month to prepare for the early Fall
tIade. Judging fOm appearances aud advices fr0m
abroad we think the iinportations In the Fall will be
limited. The only contingency which will admit of
heavy importation is a sudden and material fall in tho
price OF silk goods III France.
Trade with the domestic commission houses is very
dull, more especially in Cotton goods the prices OF
which are still high and holders concede reluctantly
Stocks are large. The manufacturers of clothing
mostly holding back till after the LIST of July, looking
for reduction in price. Cotton spinners are working
up at some disadvantage, they have allowed their
stock of cotton TO very low, and are compelled
TO buy at high prices in the face of failing market
in order TO Keep their mills at work. SUI the produc-
ton of goods is kept under more control.
The La Crosse and Milwaukee Railroad Company
has declared semi-aDnual dividend Of six y cent,
payable on the lst of July.
The dividend due on the preferred stock of the New
Jersey Zinc Company twelve + cent?, is payable on
the 9Th of July.
The Baltimore Sun of yesterday mentions rumOr
that the Cumberland Coal and Iron Company propose
TO loan the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company the
sum of $50 OOO said loan to be paid in tolls the Canal
on all coal the Cumberland Company shall send by
caral until the debt is liqudated.
The cutting up of the immense piece of Copper in
the Minnesota mine is progressing. Eight masses
were taken off in April weighing in the aggregate
81. col ID. to which should be added 10 bbs. copper
chips $40 b. giving grand aggregate of nearly %
tuus. Tie total amount taken from it in every form,
up to the month # May, is 20 tuns and 592 To- 1t
.baIlx nne
thing entirely cut up. The product of the Minnesota
mine for April was 37O5iO b. lSj tuns and $50 Is.
Tbi. is probably the largest taken from one mine
in the world during similar period.
