The movements in Dry Goods since our last review
indicate very little change, if except the desire on
the part of holders close ont foreign fabrics in the
auction ROOM This process is the only alternative with
large class Of importers, and the Losses which have
been incident to the policy have been enormous and
it will operate the most corrective of excessive

to increase their imporations and this in addition to
the business of tie regular importers well as large

for years in the foreign markets. and to a limited
extent s successfully being introduced by some Of the
best and most practical makers here. The general

large during the week. but the crowdiDg of steamers
with freight for Southern potts leads to suppose
that that section is taking its usual quantity Of goods
