chance for promotion. while those who en-

CHICAGO DRY GOODS MARKET.


WEDNEsDAE EvKSINa, Dec. Z, 1s6l+
The market for Dry Goods, though less ac-
tire than it vas ten days or two we.ks ago, Is
now moderately brisk, and our Wholesale dealers
are well satisfied with the amuunt Of their eales.
Stocks, though not very heavy, are well assorted,
and afford the country trade every variety.
There is no material change in prices, but the
quotations are somewhat irregular. For instance,
in the matter Of Delaines, one house is selling at
80, another at 40, and another Sc high as 42i Two
houses give rs Csc as the price Of "Pembertou
Red" Ticks while another is selling low as &c.
Amoskeag Denims are quoted by some at Sc, and
by othcra at &c. We might mention other lEreg-
u1arftics In the trade, but 1t Is unneccssasy Our
friends in the country, when they make their pur-
chases have shrewdness enough to select for
Themselves. The quotations we give arc furnished
by three Of the heaviest Wholesale houses In the
city, and they Indicate the general market.

In consequence Of the storm which act In last
evening, the stock trains haye been delayed.

few trains had arrived. The extreme nrmncss which
characterized the market during the previous days Of
the week. has been fully sustained today, and with

ruled considerably higher. especially on hogs avcras
ing from 20 to go upon which motto advance
Of @9scc on previous quotations, aud In some in
stances sales were made at still greater Increase up

This result has been but fair consequence arising
from the Increased demand for Hog Product At
adorable advance upon yesterdays prices; the high
rate Of gold quotations. and the Impression which
seems daily to be gaining strength that the supply OF
Hogs for the remainder Of the season Will be much
smaller than was generally anticipated.
This evening OF the delayed stock tza.ns came

The advance in gold to-day stimulated
the speculative ind shipping demand for

active demand for currency. This was tolerablJ

market considerably closer than for some time
