city, is now in San Francisco, California.

of travel well, but steadily improved under
it, and has already derived much benefit
from his visit TO California, of which bis

The following review Of the wholesale dry
goods trade for the past week is taken from tho
New York Daily Bulletin Of yesterday:
The week under review has shown a slight
Improvement over the previous seven days in
the aggregate of business done; but the tr ide il
by no means satisfactory or up to the expecta-
Tons or our city dealers. Brown sheetings and
shiTtings have been the leading feature of the
trade during the week, though the movements
have not been very heavy. The agents for At
tantcs and Pacihcs have already marked down
Their prices to correspond with those established
oy The Jobbers. Bleached sheetings and shirt
lngs are In comparatively good request for sma Il
lots TO supply the current wants of buyers who
nave not yet taken their full asSortments and
10 replenlsh the broken asSortments of earlier
ouyerS Cotton drills are not in active demand
Tor exportatlOn, aud the sales are chiefly
confined to the wants OF home consumers
DENNIS OF the most favoraby known makes
seem 10 be selling with fair degree of spirit
"hne prices rule steady. CottOnades and
Osnaburgs have not sold very freely and prices
continue without much change. Canton fian-
nels show some Improvement. Prints were
fairly active during the earlier part of the yeek
The nearby and city trade being heavy blyers
While orders tor considerable quantities were
received from dealers in more remote sections
good demand, with an advance in the price of
Sme styles. The stock OF desirable goods is
sun light and Is not likely to he excessive so
long as the present demand continues. Cloths
are selling very well from jobbing hands and
the business, though in small lots, aggre yates a
far amount, in view of the present cOndit on of
the general trade. Cassi mers are fairly active
in heavy fancies for Immediate distrib ,,ton
Ihe trade. however, is confined to small lots
chleny, and the aggregate amount is not large
TOT ms period OF the season. Trade i'm foreign
fabrics continues light in all departments.

LONDON, Oct. GA correspondeut of the

They completely encircle the CITY. The main

three or four formidable bodies, which are con-
nected BY telegraphs, and by good reads, admit

1t is said that Theirs win urge at Tours the

The belief prevails at Hsvre that the United

The two sides of the city not protected by the
