At Boston the fall trade has opened with the
brightest oCprospectS. Trade, by reason of the
rise in wool, which caused many TO be anxious
TO get in their stocks before any more untavOr-
able change occurred, began earlier than usual,
and prices have been. and will continue to he,
remuneTative. The competition among the
clothiers is great, aud combination was at
tempted a short time since to fix prices in order
TO obtain more profit Such an arrangement
would, OF course, be very prohtable TO the larger
concerns with their immense stocks, but the
smaller houses are unable TO keep their goods
any length of time, as they have their bills TO
meet by the sale OF them. Thus tins effort was
sapFa III * a
petition which prevents prices from rising, as
they might with the present state of the wool
market and the advance in cloth.
The oysters bedded in Boston harbor last

snch as no other city can give, One great
has been the superior facilities of our clothiers
to get their goods made up at a reasonable
price. Here in the east are the large manufac-
hiring establishments where thousands Inv fine

at making up goods. In Maine, town after
town has been bullt up by this special industry,
and IN many sections OF that state, at the pres
ent time, this forms the sole industry of the
people But this ability of the Boston houses
to get their goods made up at less cost than
other cities has attracted the attention of deal
ers in other states, ana during the past season
the New York ciOthiers sent on large quantities
OF goods TO be made up in the east"
