The Shoe business in LYNN ia lnokin,

The Shoe business in Lynn is looking
up again. The Bay STATE spys:
We are pleased to notice an improve
ment in the shoe business of this city, and a
better feeling in regard to future prospects
During the past week goodly number of
buyers have visited us. and some of them
have purchased quite literally About 1000
cases were sold last week, mostly from custo-
mers from the West Cincinnati, Louisville,
ST. Louis and other cities in that region, also
to the Canadas, which have become quito
good customers, and promise to be still bet
ter. Some sales have also been made to
Southern States, but our manufacturers do
not incline TO sell much to that section Just
now, except for cash. This revival of trade
has given the city more lively appearance,
and the manufacturers more cheerful eoun-
tenances, and in some instances they have in
creased their number of cutters, and extend
cd their operations"
