CIeyeland DRY Goods Market.

WEDsEsDAY, January II, 1s66.
The demand for goods is light. Merchants are
operating cautiously, and buying only what their
immediate warts seem to need. Prices Of some few
kinds Of staple Cotton Goods favor the buyer, par
ticularly Brown shsetihgs, a slight decline Of from
l to 2 cents having taken place on these goods
within the last three or four days. Z Some few
makes of Prints have yielded slightly IN price, but
as the stock Of dark Prints is % small in all the
Eastern markets, and as printers generally ale
running on light work for the spring trade, it is
not probable that good styles Of dark work viii de-
cline much, If any, from present prices. We no.
tice that stocks in this market are ample and we'll
assorted for this season Of the year, and there
seems to be . general willingness on the part Of
our jobbers to meet the market in prices, whatever
they may DO. We believe Il to be- for the best in
terest of merchants in this vicinity to purchase
their goods in Cleveland, knowing, as we do, that
our dealers have the most ample facilities for sup
plying the wants Of the trade, and can do 90 upon
terms far more favorable than small dealers could
hope to obtain elsewhere We shall hereafter keep
cur readers informed Of the condition Of this mar.
ket, and the trade will thereby be able to discern
the advantages presented. rr y 2 2

Observation-Disclosures throughout
the country partake very much of the quiet
that characterizes all classes Of business,
and afford very little material for comment
The feeling that controls capitalists is one
of caution, and until Congress shall have
decided upon the powers to be given secre-
tary McCulloch in dealing with the impor-
taat and difficult question he has to encOun-
ter, and the Secretary in turn has begun his
work, business must be more or less OPP
pressed by the a~pPrehensiOns incident to de-
lay and the many and varied surmises and
predictions that find their way to the public
ear. There is no fear of injury to the sub
stantiaf business interests Of the nation, and
no want of confidence that the sagacity Of
Secretary McCulloch viii lead him Bo-the-
best practicable results ; but there is . de-
termination apparent to trust nothing TO
possible circumstances and to rest business
upon as sure a foundation as the present sit
uation of the finances will permit.
The local money market is close, and de-
positors continue to draw actively upon bal
ances, while the replenishing current is
comparatively light. The discount demand
however is fortunately light, and bankers
are not yet subjected to any serious pressure
to meet the demands upon them, though the
tendency looks to this condition.
Eastern Exchange remains close, though
with some of the banks it is relatively ca
sier han currency. The demand however
is steadily in excess of receipts. Rates are
firm at par buying and Ito premium sell

In local commercial circles there was a

demand for good and choice grades Wheat
is fair and prices firm. Corn is in pretty

is a rather better inquiry for Pork and Lard.
Smoked Meats are dull. Produce is very

is a little more active than at our last re-
port. We note q decline IN refined Sugars,
Coffee and Candles; other articles closing
without important change. Hides and

LOCAL NOTICES.

Fifteen Years Ago H0sTETTER'S STOM.
AcH BITTERs was struggling into notice against
the prejudices which everything. new, however
excellent, is doomed to encounter.
TO-DAY
IT stands at the head of all the tonic and Alternative
preparations in existence. Its celebrity has
evoked many limitations but no rivals. Physicians
pronounce it the ONLY SAFE srIxULANr that has
ever besR introduced into the sick chamber. In the
Hospitals of the Army and Navy, the surgeons
find it the very best tonic for conYalescents, and
report it as invaluable for sustaining the vigor Of
troops on the march, as q remedy for scurvy and
all scorbutic affections, and as the only specific for
seasiekness. California and Australia have en-
phatieallJ Endorsed 1t as the MISER's MEDICINE
par excellence, and in Spanish America and all the
tropical climates, it is considered the only reliable
antidote to epidemic levers.
There is no mystery abont the causes gifts sue
cess. 1t is the only stomachic and alternative in
which are combined the grand requisites Of q
mild, pure, and unvitiated vegetable stimuIant,
with the finest selection Of tonic, anti-billious, an
ti-scorbutic, a~perient, and depurative herbs,
plants, roots, and banks that have ever been inter-
mixed in a medicinal preparation.
The Bitters have this distinctive quality, which
is not shsEed, it is believed, by any tonic, ~tincture
or extract in the world; they do not excite the
pulse, though they infuse 9 wonderful degree of
Tigor into the nervous system, and strengthen and
sustain the whols physical organization.
1t is also proper to state that the BitterS are
sold exclusively in glass, and never under any cir
cumstances by the gallon or the barrel. Impos-
tors and imitators are abroad, and the only safe
guard the public has against them Is to see that
the Bittsrs they buy bear the engraved label and
note Of hand of hessrs. Hoststter 4 Smith, and
the government stamp over the cork of the bottle.

J.. NJ. HOVER & Co.-THE PLACE FOR
BAReAIEs.-Ladies DESTROYS of getting neta-
bic bargains will not fail to visit the popular
and extensive establishment of J. N. Hover
& Co., No. 124 Ontario street, and examine
the stock of goods they offer. There has
not been for months, nay, for years, so rare
an opportunity to get what you want at a
rate SO cheap. That lot of nice merinos
which, by reason of the excellence of the
fabric and the approximate old-time prices
attached, went off with such rapidity and
created such a stir here, has been replaced,
and now he merinos Of the city are to be
found at Hower's. All descriptions of dress
goods have been marked down proportion
ately low. Skirts of the best pattern and
manufacture, and under garments for ladies
and gentlemen are offered at greatly re-
dTeed rates.
This firm are closing out their stock of
shawls at unusually low prices; also that of
hosiery and gloves. They are still taking
orders for cloaks, all the other establish
ments in the city having suspended this
branch of the business. And we need not
say a word in praise of the name in which
cloaks are turned out of this establishment.
They have taken orders for hundreds ofthsse
garments, and no house has given such uni
yersal satisfaction.
They have a fine stock of hannels, blank
cts, etc., which they are closing out at rates
which reminds us of the good old times be-
tore the war. We will not fail to speak of
their stock of silks, which are being sold at
very low prices. These goods cannot be
matched in this city. They have just re-
eeived a large lot of cotton cloths, which
must attract public attention, both on &C.
count of the durability of the fabric and the
reasOnableness of the prices required.
We have not time or space to speak in
detail Of the goods offered at temptingly low
prices at this store. We can assure the pub
lie that when an examination of the same
is made, there will be no hesitation on the
part of persons desiring to purchase. This
store has already become notorious as the
"cheap store" a reputation which the firm
of J. N. Hover &Co. are bound to maintain.
Give them a call.

ANOTHER CONFIDENCE GAME-AN HONEST
WOMAN SwINDLED.-An old farmer, whose
name we do not know, was waiting
for a train to go out yesterday, and Willing
away the time lOunging in the sitting:room
in the Union depot. A young man with a
black monstaehe approached him, sat be-
side him, engaging him in conversation,
and at length invited him out 10 take a
walk up the track. They could kill time SO.
The old farmer, it seems, had never read q
newspaper didn't believe in the total de-
pravity of the human heart; didn't believe
in eternal punishment, since he had no idea
Of men ever doing anything emitting them
to that consideration. He soon returned to
the depot, alone, badly stung. He notified
the police officers there that some young
man had swindlnd him out of $50. We do
not know the particulars, nor do we care to
know them. There seems to be no excuse
for men being SO ineffably stupid and dull
that they will pull Ghestnuts out of the fire
for total strangers. If they want sympathy
they must seek some more genial cline than
this.

CONFIDENCE Men LET Go.-Charles Reed
and Henry Darkis, the men who " beat ,
the old HoOsier named Kinney out of 500,
several days since, were let go yesterday.
1t will be remembered that the police took
pains to bring the old man back here
from gainesville, that he might identify the
parties and recover his loss. He identified
them, but was stupid or mean enough to
settle with them, receiving a bride not to
appear against them. They were held sew
eral days until the Mahoning county SOL
dier, who was swindled out of$500 afew weeks
since, could be summoned. On his state
ment that they were not his plunderers,
they were let go. There was nothing else
to do.ABut it seems a pity that, when such
rarely caught birds are eaught they cannot
be thoroughly plueked.
