AMERICAN PoTTERY.-It Is estimated that the
United States have In operation 800 potterieS,
OF $500, 900, and placing upon the markets
goods to the value Of s7,OO0,O0O annually. The
imports during 1870 were S4,3SS,TT1, but this
amount was increased In 1873 to &C. 015 925, since
when the domestic manufacture has steadily
grown In favor. Thus we find that the imports
during the past year were some 100000 less
than those OF 1870.
