There Is some difference Of opinion
among dry goods men in reference to the
trade of the week. Some pronounced 1t
dull, while others report it quite the re-
verse. Certain Il is that several country
merchants have been in the market lay
ing in their first spring purchases for the
season, while others have purchased fair
stocks TO fill out with. The demand for
staple as well as desirable dress goods is
very fair, and prices are much the
same as last week except in prints, which
are a fraction higher, and good bleached
cottons are also some frmer. We give q
ful list Of leading articles, and invite a
comparison between Memphis prices and
those Of any other city:

An active business is reported in cloth
ing. and in the wholesale trade particu-
Iarlv the demand has been brisk. Sea-
sonabIe goods'go OF readily, ana we can
learn of no complaint whatever, except in
the way Of collections, which are
not as prompt as they should
be-. The trade East tor the sea-
son, says an exchange, has been, on
the whole, quite good, and in the amount
OF sales most Of the houses are perfectly
satisfied, and particularly so as regards
the payments, the greatest scrutiny hav-
ing been given to credits by all. At the
opening of the season gold ranged about
% per cent. premium, and while the trade
took the most of their spring stock at or
about Is per cent. for gold, and were per
fectly satisfied, as they thought, they had
discounted any break that might occur;
but when the fall in premium did come,
the pressure brought upon all values, and
the loss of confidence in prices generally
was too great for them to withstand, and
the first lots made up have generally
been closed at or about cost; whilessely
duplicates have been profitable, the pr Ees
for the piece goods having been forced to
a much less figure than was first paid.
All the trade are nearly through he
spring business, and are now looking af-
ter goods preparatory to getting up their
winter stock; yet, all energies are being
put forward to reduce spring stock to the
lowest possible figures, in preference to
carrying them over; and though this fea-
ture may lessen the chances of a profit for
the season, it will guard against any fur
Their loss from any future declith in the
gold premium. ~
