The paralysis which has so severely but We
trust with merely temporary effect, fallen upon
so mary Of our industries does not appear to
have Affected in any serious manner, the trade
in dry-goods, in this city. In visiting our large
establishments, we find them f,lly stocked aud
Offering many novelties in fine and costly textile
fabrics. No remirlssble change OF prices APP
pears from those of last year None rate high
er; cas.imeres. aud some other departments OF
WOODEN goods are perhaps trifle lower; bat
GENERALLY THE SAME RATES RULE
For standard fabrics. In dress goods, plain
and even sombre colors prevail among those of
the newest styles Plaids and stripes will be but
little worn, and the polka spot, 80 fashionable
last Summer, is scarcely to be found in heavier
goods Deep blue. bronze brown, vegetable
green, olive, and slate color are the fashiona-
BILE tints.
FoR TRIMMINGS,
Bindings aud bands of bias velvet, OF harmon
izing or contrasting tints, will be much
worn. Lace still continues popular as ever,
for trimmings, scatls and tics. Rlns, which
are universally worn, quite suppantiug en-
broidered collars, are increasing IN -widtn and
fullness, some OF them assuming almost the
'Elizabetlian' dimensions which their titles
claim The gaily striped shawls which have been
worn for several HeaHoDs cOdtinue in favor,
probably still moro than ever now that their
bright tints will be needed TO give autumnal
brightness to the grave solid colors of the dress
and redingote.
