BOSTON, aug.
There is more movement noticeable in the Boot

with rather more irmness as the demand increases,
stock hand, of the heavy lines, decreases At

desirable kinds to be place on sale; but as we have
before remarked, short supply of any line which
can be made by machinery is of short duration.
Hand made work IS in the most active request, and
if wanted before November orders cannot be too
given for the goods, especially the prices
have more of an upward tendency than otherwise at
this time. particularly tor goOds made of imported
stock, which advances in price with that of Gold.
