Day Goops TRADE-From one of the most
reliable AMI recent sources of information
We quote the following remarks on the New
/ ork Dry Goods trade:
There is fair amount of business doing
but the Fall trade has not properly com
menced. The importations are not heavy,
being checked bv the continuance of high
prices abroad which seems likely to contin
Tie during the current year. The number of
country buyers in the city is not yet large
but another week is generally expected
to witness "A considerable, arrival. The job
bors of the city. have been the principal buy
ers hitherto; but themselves have hardly
commenced selling any bu, staple goods.
Desirable styles OF silks and other fancy
goods are not yet superintendent in stock,
and rices are firm, especially as the foe
eign market is not lower. Cloths have been
largely imported, especially from Germany,
but holders are not disposed to eoncede
much if any from last years prices. The
clothing iobbcrs and the clo,hiers are do
ing good business, especially for the dis
tant markets Goods Of domestic manuiac-
,ure are mostly dull Prints and cotton
staple goods have, however, commanded a
steady sale, though prices ofthe former are
heavy. Woolcns sell more freely and are
steady in price owing to the tirmness Of the
wool, the supply of wool being hardly equal
to the demand"
