New York Dry Goods Market.
NEW YORK, Aug. SI.-Less activity
in the general market to-day than for any
previous day during the week. Brown
sheetings and shirtings have been mOder-
ately active at late reduced quotations.
Bleached goods are inactive, but at the
late reduction in prices indications are for
an active market at an early date. Cotton
drills continue firm at former quotations
but the movement noticed being only to
supply the home demand. Canton fan
nels continue fair, the enquiry demand
gradually improving. Wool flannels are
moderatively active and the favorite makes
keep well sold up. Ticks, stripes and
checks are in fair request from first hands,
and jobbers report an improved demand.
WoOlens are inactive, some picking up is
noticed by jobbers and merchant tailoring
trade for fancy casimeers and suitings, but
for cloths and heavy goods but little en-
quiry exists in New York. The foreign
cry goods market is weak, and closes with
an active aud strong market for nearly all
goods. The city is full Of buyers and the
weather is cool and pleasant.
