Boston Dry Goods Market.

FRIDAY, Jan. 10
The traffic in dry goods the past week has not
been vigorous although there is some improve
ment over that of the past one. Jobbers seem DIS
posed to postpone until buyers are about ready to
put in an appearance. Small lots of goods are
purchased to I'LL orders from travelling statesmen
and to supply the wants of the retail trade in the
various cities, but there is no speculative feeling
and the transactions are restricted TO the actual
wants of consumers. Brown Cottons remain as
last reported, with light stock the market, and
no change in prices. Bleached goods are firmly
held, but the sales have been in small parcels and
at previous figures. Cotton Flannels have been
sold up very closely, and the market is very firm
for such goods as are still offered. Corset Jeans
are in limited request Cambrics taken as
wanted by the trade, and the market is firm. Den
inns quiet and there is no special movement in
any description of blue goods. There is very little
inquiry for Prints, but more active demand is
confidently expected. Ginghams firmly held,
but the sales are light. American dress fabrics are
selling in small lots, but there is no activity to note.
Woolens remain inactive, and the transactions for
the past week have been light.
Carpets are quiet, with no change TO note in
prices.

FRIDAY Jan. TO-
The past week has not been marked by any ac.

grades have been light Holders of Leather are
firm, and as shoe manufacturers must soon pul-

of any decline in prices. Hemlock Sole has been
in moderate demand, and the sales are mainly in
small lots. Choice rough leather is in good de
mand, with light stock upon the market, but com.
mon grads have accumulated to some extent, and
there is a good supply offering. The receipts of
