Suague has increased his production Of Cloths this
week, in hopes Of supplying the demand; but his
stock Of cotton will soon be exhausted and tue III
ceased supply will be only temporary. During all
ibis excitement Of the domestic goods market, the
manufactured article has not kept pace with the ra
material. Heavy Sheetings weighing 2 s5-lOO yards
TO the pound could not be afforded at lo cents v
yard with cotton at 40 cents pound, although they
have advanced 100 y cent within six months.
Bleacbed Goods particularly Of the higher counts,
nave not advanced 80 cent above the prices current
wien cotton ruled at II cents pound although the
advance in the raw material has exceeded 800 y
cent. Supply and demand govern the price Of any
given article as a rule, and it has no exception in

finer fabrics. like Williamsville, Wam'utta, &C.,
have been used by the furnishng-houses for ready
made garments, which supplies to great extent the

wooleu shirts are substituted. This fact VIII prevent
any immediate or even future demand which VIII
enhance prices in tie same proportion as that which
we have seen in the common domestics. Manufac-
tnren should marx tLis and avoid the accumulslons
which inust result nom continued production The
Wooden Goods market is without material change.
Some Of the contracts made with Government are
maturing, and the manufacturers are restive at the
delay Of the Government in Offering to continue the
same. But no apprehension should exit, as the
wants Of tie army for long period will absorb every
yard Of desirable cloths which can be made. Even
blankets 20 dull at present. wiz yet command reIau-
nerative prices.
