THE DRY GOoDs MARKEr-Business during
the past week was devoid of amin alton, and few
features of noteworthy interest transpired to
relieve the monotonous dizziness which pre-
vailed. There was moderate demand for both
cotton and woollen foods from first hands, and
such demand as existed WIS obviOusly strictly
legitimate and without the slightest appearance
of a speculative tendency. Prices for cotton
an advance was established on several promi-
nent styles of bleached shirtings by the agents,
which, although not followed in every case by
the iobber who had stocks on hand, tended to
impart increased frnness to the market.
Prices for wo0ilens were QUITE steady,
tory to buyers, and are little if any higher
than at corresponding period of last year.
Worsted goods were in better demand than any
other class OF fabrics. Black alpacas and mohafr
lustres Of medium and fine qualities met with a
fair distribution at first hands at full prices.

with a slight inquiry only for black gros grains
and cachemires des soies of fine qualities and
light-coored silks for evening wear, which were
wanted by the retailers. Millinery silks were
very dull. Linens were I'm better request, and
there was fair demand for canyasses, ducks,

were also in more demand. but housekeeping
goods were less active. Cambria handkerchief
were quiet. Shawls were very dull, and the pas,
season must have proved very Improbable to
importers OF these goods. Hosiery and gloves
were in fair request, and. with the exception OF
some outside makes of kid gloves, brought full
prices.-N. y. BuIietin.

At the weekly meeting OF the Methodist
preachers of New York on Monday the discus
son uI-On the nature of future punishments was
continued, and by several of the speakers the
falling OF of interest in religious matters was
attributed to the lack of earnestness in preaching
eternal damnatiOn a the penalty for nOn-re-
pentance. The Rev. Dr. Merwin said that his
IsrishiOners felt but little interest in PRAYER
meetings. Dr. Parker said he was sorry to
report the state the church the east side of
the city as altogether unsatisfactory. On Sun
day morning he preached on ''Horror,y endeav-
oring TO show the people their peril. In the
evening his subject was 1.-The Sinners Death

repentance they must be eternalIy damned He
found greater difficulty in converting fifty sim

the cause; they certainly preached with as much
fervor, an better sermons.
One venerable preacher said he was glad
TO note revival OF orthodoxy on the doctrine

If the Methodist preachers believe in the
doctrine OF he'll as they used TO believe

do not the ministers preach until the people
tremble? We do not have in these DAYS those
to have. Our revivals now are comparatively
pretty. They are done up in the highest realms
OF art We do not want any more of this fancy
work. Those who want TO please God must
