New-York Dry Goods Market.

For the sceek ending Wednesday eceirg, Sept p ,1sss
We have noticed less activity with the dstribaring
houses the past week, indicating that the heavest
trade Of the over, although there are many
buyers in the market. The trade the whole has
been satisfactory, but Irregular and less equally dis
trbuted than in former Many of the leading
houses have been relieved Of the large stocks held at
the commencement OF the season, and at present.
preparing for the later Autumn trade. The gradual
hardening OF certain styles of goods has led to
large contracts to the manufacturers for future delv
cry. The heavy clothing houses are in the market,
making up their stock and a better demand
for goods in that department The collections from
the West satisfactory; the recent advance
in some of their products affords better prospect
the future, although will be long time before they
fully recover from their embarrassments.
DRHLINGS
The private letters from China by the Persia
that the news of the treaty gener ally credit
ed IN Canton and in view of large shipments OF Drills
from this country, the price was not maintained, and
dizziness prevailed in the market. Some large opera
tons have been made here by outside spectators but
the exporters have not confidence operate largely.
We quote heavy 30nch 2s0-40 ps Drills at sI8c.;
2'-inch Drills are selling moderately for home
sumption.
BROWN SHEETINGS AND SHIRTINGS
37-inch heavy Sheetings, 4sx52 ESQ yards to the
pound, are held at &c, (which an improve
ment Light Sheetings Of all counts, IS to As inches
wide, are in great demand for conversion :" and
the manufacturer Is q cent more than heavy goods
An important item in the net cost of manufacturing
goods was omitted by one of contemporaries in his
estimate of yesterday. Ii is well known that every
careful manufacturer, who would have his balance
machinery yearly his expense account as it would
| be worthless at the end Of that time.
| BLEACHED sHEETINGS AND SHIRTINGS.
The demand for these goods continues. The ad-
vance already noticed is well main tained fabri-

| PRINTING CLOTHS.
Printing Cloths are dull The stock on hand of low
count cloths is small, but the higher grade goods

and the dizziness of wide goods market induced many
manufacturers 10 their narrow goods
Over production is having its appropriate effect; 62x64
cannot be imported at less than 53Sc- r yard.
Yet their goods selling c., and if the

All the good style prints are taken as fast as pro-

are about preparing for Spring styles which will evi-
dcnee the same elegance Of design and beauty which

although, for few years past there has been but
very little profit TO the importer; but the market is

| FOREIGN
| The trade IN Manchester continues good. We quote
private letter ''Our market for cotton has adj
| vanced full 18th Of penny. We have the most ia
Vorable accounts Of the Manchester trade that have
been received during the last eighteen years Spin
ners are getting fabulous prices prices for yarns and
| cannot meet the demand. Yarns have been sold al
Id, from I'D. cotton and the expense of spinning
| Is only 4d." Another says: The consumption OF
cotton is enormous. The trade at Manchester
| is extraordinary. We never remember hattering
accounts for many years, if at all during exper-
| icrce."
| With this evidence before us, it seems probab le
that manufacturers cannot purchase cheap Tor
