The New York Post reports that the piIr-
chases of United States stocks on the 9Th
inst. for foreign bankers we're very large,

The New York Journal Of Commerce Of
the 9th inst. says Of domestic drygoods
There is less depression Of tone, and
holders of fabrics generally keep up good
courage, but we cannot record any consid-
cradle increase of activity. The jobbers
have just enough country custom TO keep
them from covering their goods, and as
| they must replace to continue assortmenta,
the commission merchants are also kept
| from utter idleness The seasons business
has not been satisfactory, and the least san
| gnine are disappointed at the result Still,
there is cause for coagratulation that credits
have been so we'll maintained, collections
so good, and no serious disasters have &C.
| curred.

weeks, and there appears 10 be more dis
position on the part of buyers to take hold
Of considerable lots when they are offered
at temptingly low figures. Manufacturers
generally are not inclined to press their
goods for sale at any concession, and pro-
fess to believe that with a more active de
mand prices will improve. On the other
hand responsible parties will not purchase
Ia anticipation OF their wants for distriba-
tiOn, except at reduction from current
rates, and no important sales could prob
ably be effected at the nominal qnotatious
The stock of both heavy add light weights
in 6yst hands has increased, but from the
present reduced production, consequent
upon the stoppage Of large portion Of the
machinery usually employed, il would
seem that the further accumulation must
