The market for general Dry Goods has improved
during the past week, aud we have to report que an
active business for the season OF the year. Those
iobbers who have been conservative in their past ope-
rstous, are enabled to repeush stocks with the
houeas and ms and are
good assortments for the nearby trade which is quite
satisfactory while the other class neplecng their
general trade in their attempts toprotect their bills pay
able The chief sales however, have been confined 10
the export orders, which have continued, without
much abatement notwithstanding the general depres
sion of the home trade. This trade have before
remarked, should be cherished ss il is the main sup
port of the home maj ket and with its increase, our
manufacturing industry will prosper. 1t is estimated
that the value of textile goods, manufactured in
England annually IL over $50 coo, 900. Nearly one
half of this amount is exported while the balance GEN.
,ers into the home consumption. More than one-hah
of this amount is made mp of Cotton Fabrics and the
manufacture has increased nearly double in the la ten
vesrs In 1850 they exported o Cotton 81 ~, 100000
in value; in 1855 $i7i,OoO,Jot, and in lst0
$3.50 900 The imports Of Cotton, Of course, in
crease IN the same ratio while it reached in 1850
663 100 600 pounds; In 1850 the imports amounted to
,39I 900, go pounds. Indeed, the growth Of their
manufacturing system, especially in Cotton Fabrics, IL
one of the wonders of history. Scarcely has cen
tury elapsed since the entire valne Of their
Cotton manufactures was only about n 100000,
and at present the production is estimated
to be more than Sto0,WOoV. The re
suits of this industry upon England scarcely be es-
timated. From mere pastora! population they have
become large and intelligent Of mechanics; the
wages of the aboring classes have been increased and
the wealth and power OF the country find psrsuein
history. England possesses peculiar advantages III
manufacturing which country could not acquire.
Yet we BEE no such prosperity growth in our uanu-
featuring districts for after the effort Of seventy ycars
we are capable Of consuming only about one-fth Of
our cotton CROP The market for heavy cottons s firm,
without much movement. The high price Of cotton
precludes the idea of profit in the manufacture Of heavy
goods as we'll as the lighter fabrics, and the restriction
of production is general. We quote standard Sheetngs
at Sc; Export Drills at 81 &C.. Beached Sheetngs
aud Printing Cloths without change in price, and no
saes 10 report. Woolens adapted for army purposes
are still in request, but demand for the general
stock il observed. Cotton Duck continues in request
at previous prices and inquiry is noticed for Can
ton Fannels. Foreign fabrics arc slack, and general
apathy prevails among the importers.
We annex our usual summary OF the Exports Of Do
meic Co,tons from this port for the week ending June
