The Flour market Is exceedingly fiat and inaui-
mate and tho inquiry Is limited to email lots as
vnntcd for consumption. The failure Of the
Charleston expedition has c1e1ted a most aepress
ing eject upon this branch Of trade. the e1pec-
t:4tion raised Of the speedy opening Of Southern
FoTta. which gave deYrce Of buoyancy and en-
couragemens TO holders, has thus been dfsappoint-
cd.
As it is, New Orleans affords an important
eafoly valve for the pressure upon tho home mar
kct. The Eastern coastw!ec trade is.vcry back
ward and dull for the season, owing IN a measure
to the condition Of the currency and difficulties Of
exchange with tho British Provinces. Shipments

Dry Goods-Thc spr1n9 Trade.
Last week was one Of the heaviest for the
Dry Goods trade Of Chicago, known here for
ma,y months. Happening in the house Of
Bowen & Bros, q, Il and ~ Lake street, VIC
noticed cases filed with merchandise re1dy
| for shipment and marked to over forty differ
! ent firms In the various States and Territories
! Of the Northwest and Southwest, includ-
| ing Dacotah, Colorado and Arizonia. In this
connection VIC may mention that Mcssrs.
Bowen Bros. have now in store an immense
stock Of Staple and Fancy Dry Goods, Yam
kce Notions, &c. Their prices are from 10 to
Is per cent less than New York quotations, an
induccment In these close times, worthy the
attention Of Country merchants. We werc
ehown samples Of Spring Cassimcres from the
Cleveland Woolen Mills, d purely Western,
production, for which Bowen BROS. have tho
exclusive sale, which are in quantity and Style
equal to imported goods, though noticibly
lower in price. We cannot but believe that
our mercantile readers will find it to be tc
their advantage 70 examine the splendid in
duccucnts offered by this cnterprising firm.

recoupme Mt and that if it was so exempt ,on1y
nominal damages could be recovered. Vcr.
