1.-THE cotton goods market confirm,
very dull and depressed, and scarcely an
encouraging feature in any department. |
Stocks Accumulate and il is evident that |
unless there shall be a considerable de-
| cline in the raw material, the production
will have TO be curtailed, as many kinds
| of fabrics are selling below actual cost.
| The following are the most important
changes in staple styles of cotton goods:
international G, &c inch; brown are rednc-
ed to 10 cents: Gibbon A sheeting liz;
Vale E sc inch bleached muslins IL; Put
man AA do do III; Everett fine brown
jeans l64; Amoskeag do do 153; New
| York mills check cottonades 81 for dark
styles; New York mills blesched musllns
| 10 25; Lonsdale bleached cambrics to 1l4;
and Clinton @ bleached muslins TO IL;
| Amoskeag do to Is. Leading styles of
prints remain at 12@l24 cents; and sec
onds 7@1l9. Other cotton goods without
much change. The failure of ID. +. Dib-
BILE 4 Co. has been reported, and there
have been rumors of other insolvents
which, however, were not substan'iated.
Noolens continue demOralized, many
kinds being hard TO move even at figures
(which net a substantial loss to manuiac-
Pturers. The carpet trade is in pretty
good position; stocks being moderate, as
there is not machinery enough to over pro
duce this class Of goods"
