Business Review.
NEW YORK, April 25.-The average
amount of business last week was large and
the mercantile circles were more cheerful
and hopeful, prices ruled frmer and showed
a slight improvement in the general dry
goods trade, which continued during the
week. and more business is evidently doing
by jobbing houses. Prices have not fiuctu-
ated materially. The tone of the market,
both in foreign and domestic goods, is firm,
and there is good prospect for firm prices
for some time to come.
