From the Independent
The New York Dry Goods Trade.

Thanksgiving Day makes big hole in
business week, for it takes at least one
day 10 prepare for it. and one day to get
over IL; The week TOR business purposes.
therefore, consisted q hardly more than
three days. But there wa p fair business
done, notwithstanding. anu the city retail
trade was extraordinarily active, owing in
a certain degree to a liberal marking down
of prices by some of the leading houses on
Broadway. The great obstacle to trade is
not so much a lack of money, nor the I'M
settled condition of affairs, as the uncer-
the whole community IN relation TO the
national fnanc IS, ami the action of Con-
Rress on the question. When this question
shall have been disposed of. ard not be-
fore, we may look for healthy revival of
trade.
In foreign goods OF all kinds the trans
actions of the week, except at the retail
stores, have been on a very limited scale;
the sales at auction have been light, con-
ends, while the importations have been
smaller than in any week at the CORE
spending season Tor three years.
1t is not SAFE to predict how low the
price of cotton goods will tall. while the
raw material is still tending down ward.
On Saturday, the same grade of cotton
which brought Lhirty-three cents a year
ago, sold tor fifteen cents. This is the low
est point it has touched since the out
break OF the rebellion. If the tax should
be removed, and it probably will be, of
course il will go still lower; but the plant
er will be ne better off, At the present
prices, India cannot compete with us in
cotton.
Most desert ptions of domestics are held
at hrner prices than they were, and in
some descrIp ions there has been a slight
advance. Tt e stock of heavy unbleached
sheetsngs in the hands of agents is so con-
siderably reduced that there Is no ankle
tysto force sales at present prices.
BIea .aed goods are in fair dem and but
there is full supply of the cemmoner
kinds and prices are not so firm q. tton
flannels are in better demand. and prices
have stife8ed up a little, As the stock on
hand is not large. There is eOnsidera-
bic activity in prints, and prices have not
varied essential from our last report;
but the supply OF desirable styles is con-
siderably less than it has been. Rolled
jacOnets. silesias, and cambrics are in m Cd
crate demand.
The sales of muslin deIaiReS are fair for
the season, and prices for the new styles
are fully maintained.

NEWARK, Sept. u, 1867
The Democratic masses OF old Licking
turned out IN great numbers to-day to hear
Thurman and Pendlcton. They came in
mulu,udes from every part Of the county;
and hickory wagons, bands of martial mu.
SIT, and countless American flags gave indi.
cation Of the enthusiasm which abounds
among the people. Fully fifteen thousand
persons were in attendance. Judge Thur
man in opening his speech, said
have never, in this campaign, paid the
least attention to the miserable personali-
ties, uttered or published against me. But
for once, shall, on this occasion, depart
from that course to notice au article in this
mornings Ohio State Journal, published at
my own home. That paper says:
Soldiers ought to forget that amidst all
their suifcrings and privations in camp, in
in campaign and in hospitals Alien &.
Thurman never gave them a word of en-
couragement, or contributed a dollar for
their comfort while his mansion and parlor
were ever open for the entertainment of
rebel officers on parole, and that he contrib
uted hundreds and thousands Of dollars to
furnish rebel prisoners with luxuries.
Whether ever gave word of encour>
agement to the Federal soldiers let the plat.
forms Of our State Conventions, drawn UP
by me, answer. | am willing to abide the
test.
Whether | ever contributed dollar for
their comfort, let the files of the OHIO .Stute
JO'nndl answer. The editor of that paper
has only to turn to them, to find contribu-
tlon by me, at one time, two hundred doll
lars for the relief Of the families of the
soldiers Of Columbus, and. at other times,
other contributions by me or my family
And these published contributions were but
a small proportion Of what | gave.
The statement that | contributed hun
dreds of thousands of dollars to furnish
rebel prisoners with Injuries, is simple
falsehood. did contribute some neccssa
ries to the poor, sick prisoners in, the hos
pitfalls of Camp Chase, and so did scores of
others. Republicans as well as Democrats,
in Columbus and elsewhere. But every
such contribution was with the sanction of
the Government, for not even a cup Of wa>
ter could be passed into the prisons or hos
pitals, without that sanction, and | am con
hdent that the people Of Ohio are not base
enough to condemn any man for acts of
common humanity and Christian charity
Judge Thurman proceeded to discuss
with marked ability the subjects Of recon.
structiop, debt, taxation and negro suffrage
