THE REPORTED ACTION OF TIE New YoRK
WHOLESALE Day GooDs HousEs.--1he New
York Journal of Commerce, alluding edito-
rally to the paragraph stating that the lead.
ing. dry goods houses OF that city had resolved
to extend no credit in future to Southern
dealers, says:
IL turns out now that the representation is
wholly false. We have inquired personally
of "ths leading dry goods firms Of New
York." and they declare that they never heard
of this meeting until this paragraph was pub
lished, and that they propose to make no
change whatever in relation to their custom
in the Southern States. The leading j'bbers
in this city are doubtless divided in their per,
sonal relations to the ogreat political par
ties but there are few of them, we have
reason to know, who carry their partisan ship
so far as to interfere with the management Of
their business upon sound mercantile princi1
pies. They invite custom from every section,
and will sell every applicant in good credit
without regard to his political bias. So far
from any unusual restrictions, there has been
an extension of last seasons credit to worthy
Southern applicants, q very natural result as
the two sections become more intimately con-
neoted.
