four correspondents of different newspapers

There was an improved feeling in the market dur
ing the past week, and buyers have taken hold with
rather more alacrty, their wants became i'm era
tive, and the lowest prices tor manufactured goods
seem to have been reached. There is speculative
feeling NANTES ed, either on the part of buyers or
Sellers as manufacturers getting up goods only
orders, and buyers are purchasing only in small
lots wanted. 1t is hardly reasonable to suppose
that prices of manufactured stock will be any lower
rs goods are bt ing sold at very little profit; bu
buyers, in view of the decline In eold and the unset
lied state of affairs generally, will not purchase
at the present low rates any goods than they
sure their customers will want. Most OF tho shoe

duced wages.

THE PEABODY CHARrTIEs.-The London

to the poor of London, remarks:-
"We should be paying bad compliment to
the great American merchant if we called his
benevolence 'princely,' for no modern prince
has effected one-tenth of the good that may
reasonably be expected to result from Mr..
Peabody's illustrious gift. The gain to the
community is all the the greater because the
giver has not scattered his bounty broadcast
in the form of indiscriminate lareesse. and
because the aid that he youchsafes has no ten
dency either to pamper the laziness of pau
perism, or to pauperize the working poor"

Itwas hardly to have been expected, that
Maine would stand SO high as fourth in the
order Of cotton manufacturing states. We
lacked only $4,000 OF exceeding New Hamp-
shire, which was the third. 5i' III 7....,
In shipbuilding it is somewhat surprising
that we should have come SO near to our long
sustained place OF first on the scale, consider
ing how unfavorable the period was, for this
branchaof our industry. We were exceeded
only by Pennsylvania. and that only in con-
sequence of the activity of building on her
western waters, while all of our tonnage built

If all the states had been contributing to
the internal revenue, in the year here presen-
ted, of course the position OF Maine might
have been lower down in the scale---but the
fact, that within the twelve months ending
June 80, 1866, we paid IN cash, two and a
half millions Of dollars, nearly, to the govern 4
ment, besides all our local burdens, and our
indirect taxes, serves to give us gratifying
view, at least, of our industry, and our ability.
A view still more interesting is obtained, by
observing what was Iaid in Maine, upon par

TO the Editor Of TIE Press: i3a as fi i.3a.4 Z
The report OF the Commissioner of Internal

that it now gives US view OF the domestic,
