We have TO report sensible diminution Of the Dry
Goods trade during the past week yet the general
business in Domest;cs has not thst appearance Of u-
activity which L. characterized former seasons The
demand from the furnishing houses has con'iau'd
without abatement; the clo.hiers canvsssng the
market for the early Sprirg fabrics the export trade
has been moderately good, and it is only with certain
styles Of goods, which have been made in too large
quantities, that excessive dullness prevails. The
movement of the crops will have an important in-
Husnce upon the future demand from the West, aud
good business is expected all through the season by
those houses having Western connections Even nov
we hear Of frequent quidstons Of old indebtedness
and fresh orders for goods by parties from some sec
tions which we have not previously heard from this
year. Nevertheless, there districts IN the North
West which, having suffered in their crops, are still
under the embarrassments of 1857, and will not be
able to take many goods much less pay past indebted
less.
The activity noticed in the foreign markets for all
kinds Of Cotton Goods leads US to suppose that We
shall not be injured much by importstions as We
have been heretofore, as this market offers no such
Inducements to English manufacturers as the other

SECOND BOARD
THURSDAY, Oct. 1872. n,


Stocks were quite steady in the first movements of
the day. but toward the close Of the First Board the
market seemed to drag and most of the leading stocks
fell back little from prices established during the
irst call Between the sessons the feeling was that
of hesyness and dulness, and with that tone the
business of the afternoon Board commenced, nearly
everything dropping la v cent fromths lowest quo
tatons of the morning. Before the adjournment,
however, slight rally ensued, and at the close OF
the day the market was frmer but not buoyant. TIE
largest operations usual in New-Yerk Central,
which sold at the First Board as high as 500, but
was heavy afterward, and was done as low as 79l,
closing steady at 80 at the Second Board The most
serious decline in Reading which came out freely,
and touched 80! before the First Board a6jour1ei.
The Western shares were generally stesdy, except
for Galena neary everything fell off from opening
prices and were offered freely at the lower figures
Southern Guaranteed was heavy and at the afternoon
Board sold down to l6!. Doubts as to the payment
of the November interest on the bonds OF this road
are still expressed, and unfavorsbe Impressions IN
regard to the financial condition Of the Company are
enter aned in the street. This is represented
TO be embarrassing enough to threaten the
extinction of the stock under its load Of debt and
70 place it in that critical and unsatisfactory condition
of the Erie and other unfortunate enterprises. The
effect of the recent breakdown in the prices OF
the Michigan Southern and Toledo shares has been to
increase public distrust of Railway Stocks. Galena
was firm at A at the First Board, but broke to 73i
between the sessions finally closing at 13i a74 The
earnings of the fret week in October, which show
gain Of about $4,000 mainly in freight, have been
used as an argument in favor Of an advance IN the
marke value of Western Stocks generally, but the
spectators in Wal street are the only large buyers.

senting the check at the bank they were informed
