Advance in Leather.

Boston, November 21.-A meeting Of
wax and kip leather manufactures have
agreed to advance prices l23 per cent. on
finished leather, and that, as q rule, sales
of upper leather be made on the basis of
four months credit.
The Shoe and Leather Record saws:
" Under existing circumstances it is simply
impossible to give an extended report of
what is doing in the line of boots and shoes.
Most of the great shoe firms have already
found temporary places of business, but
everything is in such chaotic state that
the most that can be said is that business,
where it is not entirely suspended, is in
such O state Of transition as to render the
market reports useless; at the same time
it, is exceedingly difficult to forecast the
near future of trade.
"The mere destruction of boots and shoes
by the confagration is of little moment, as
the power of production is 30 immense that
any demand that can possibly arise can be
promptly supplied by our manufacturers !;
but as the prices of upper stock, especially,
must be considerably enhanced, the prices
of boots and shoes must doubtless be pro-
portlonately advanced. Meanwhile, they
are merely nominal and we make no change
in the quotations.

| To the Editor u the State Journal
| The house owned by Mrs. Martha II.
| Spiceley, Thirtieth and o streets, was to-
tally destroyed by fire on the 10th instant.
| Mrs. Spiceley is the very aged widow OF
| James Spieely, faithful soldier of the
| American Revolution, of l776. The house
was not insured, and the loss is severe one
to her, as her entire support depends upon
one hundred and twenty dollars year
from the United States government GER
tainly not enough to pay for her board,
clothing and rent. A life-interest in Q
small portion of land in the country brings
nothing by income to her increased poverty
caused by this late calamity.
AS friend and supporter of the United
States government, feel assured that tn
case of Mrs. S. will not fail to call forth it
aid, gratitude and generosity.
