The .4ge of Wednesday says: The
present is dull time of year in most
departments of trade, and the change
of feeling is, therefore, more important
A. an indication of the future than as a
sign of what is being actually done. In
the dry goods trade the orders are still
for small parcels TO keep up assert
ments: but prices are well maintained,
and there are already visible the pre-
mOuitory symptoms OF an active 1all
trade. Manufacturers are watching TIE
mark ct closely and adapting the supply
to the demand of each particular grade
of domestic goods. In wOolens there
is very little doing; but the tendency
of prices Is upward. The demand for
imported fabrics light and the Imports
are on a moderate scale only.
The journal Of Commerce reports that
"thc market shows but little animation,
although the aggregate amount Ut legit-
innate business in the various CONNER
cial departments is us large AS usual at
this stage Of the season. The dry goous
trade is moderately active, but the sales
are mostly limited to staple productions
and to quantities required for immedi-
ate distribution. Buyers generally have
not commenced laying in supplies for
autumn to any considerable extent, but
the indications of an abundant in-cOm-
ing harvest, give promise Of any early
movement, and IL large demand is all
ticipated. Money is abundant at . per
cent. for call loans on stock collaterals,
and ut per cent. for large sums upon
government securities. The range OF
discount for the best mercantile paper
is 6ia7 per cent. per annum, and Sa9 per
cent. for other good signatures.
