Dry Goods.

NEW YORK, April 5.-The dry goods market
was less active to-day at the hands OF both

ufacturers are satisfied with the situation. There
is no excess of goods, though medium bleached
and three-yard cott0ns have accumulated rela-
lively more than others. There continues a good
demand for novelties in patterned fabrics. in

The FACT that two cities in Maine, the
State in which the prohibitory liquor law
was conceived, and In which it has been
nursed and cherished, and is now in full
operation, accuse each other of being the
"drup kenest city in the county," is euff-
Gent Of itself clone to account for the re-
peal of similar laws by other northern
States that had been silly enough to pass
them, and should be sufficient to deter other
States from attempting to effect temperance
by any such vain coercive measures. 1t the
temperance people would strive for high Ii
cense they would probably receive the aid
of enough other people to secure the sue
cess OF the object they profess to have &c
much at heart.
