Boston Boot and Shoe Market.

BOSTON, Aug. 10.
The Boot and Shoe business for the week has been
quite active, both in filling orders and the present
demand. The dispatchlng of goods seldom has been
more lively in and about Pearl street. Notwith-
standing this activity and the general appearance of
good trade, there Is a great complaint among the
trade vi being Obliged to sell at low prices and with
out profit; this complaint has always existed to
some extent, but this season it more general
than heretofore. and the increased cost OF manufc-
turing, without a corresponding advanc in the man
uiactured article, tends to confirm the complaint Of
no profit. The competition among manufacturers to
produce goods at comparatively low prices never
was more active; hence the market constantly favors
tue buyers. Larger sales have been made on time
this season than there have been for the last few
years, and houses who endeavor to maintain thirty
days or short time bills in their transactions find
their old customers sraying off where more aalvan-
tageIus terms are offered to time The stock of
goods on hand is ample, and i, quickly replenished
as needed With the present facilities for manufac-
turing and a scarcity of any description of goods
the season is not profitable the principal orders
for the season have been given and filled Our table
for the week indicates that the shipments have
reached the highest point usual in OF trade
