Dry Goods.

There has been some movement in domestics,
but prices are not firmly established. In
brown sheetings of standard makes there has
been decline equal to about one cent a yard,
while in light weights the fall has averaged
about halt cent. The transactions in
bleached shirtings and sheetings have net been
fully mp the expectation of manufacturers,
who have reduced their rates on certain styles
from half to one cent yard. But prices are
firmly maintained in most of the popular
makes.
Prints have undergone a slight reduction,
averaging about half cent yard; but this
has not induced the jobbers to purchase freely
The attractive pattern are in rather limited
supply, and the stock on hand, in first hands,
of prints of all kinds, is not so large to make
the holders at all anxious TO submit to a further
reduction. Both buy ers and sellers are rather
shy Of one another at present.
9inghams are in active demand, and prices
are consequently well maintained.
Rolled jaconets, cambrics, and silesias are in
good supply, and sales are readily effected at
quotations.
Muslin de laines and other descriptions of
dress-goOds sell freely; for II is now the best
season, ana the new styles are very attractive
and satisfactory. Comparatively, they are OF
fered at cheaper rates than any other style OF
domestic fabrics in the market.
Italian cloths are without change worthy Of
mention. The market is well supplied and
prices remain steady.
Greater activity prevails in woolens OF every
description, and prices are firm. In cassi-
rneres and satinets there Is some improvement.
Cloths and overcoatings Of various makes are
in fair demand, and small advance has been
established In some makes.
In foreign goods there has been greater de-
gree OF activity shown, and the auction. sales
have been well attended. The importations of
the past ten days have been very large, and the
market Is well supplied with French, German,
have not been doing sufficiently large busI-
ness to induce them to buy as extensively as
usual at THIS season.-N y. Independent, Sept 3.
