DRY GOODS.

New York, Feb. 25.-The Journal OF
commerce and Commercial Bulletin, in
It's weekly review of the dry goods mar
ket, says: THE course of the market
during the past week has shown more ir-
regularity in the demand for cotton goods
than Tor some time past. That is, tram
sacuons of some volume have been more
tkquently reported here and there, whilst
buying on the part Of the general run of
purchasers have been no more spirited
than before. Any extension in individual
orders can readily be traced to the re-
duced prices lately quoted. The apathy
OF the trade at large, in face of these re
auctions is however, beyond doubt, dis
appointing to agents and their manufac-
turers. Either by way of open reduction
or quiet concessions, values of all regular
cotton goods have reached a level which
If not actually the lowest on record, is
as unremunerative as any hitherto re-
corded. Under such conditions, and in
view of the further fact that unsold
stocks are large in the aggregate, it is
not surprising that rumors are current of
impending curtailment of production on
liberal scale In the wooden goods di-
vision the condition of mems wear fabrics
departments is also unsatisfactory. The
fall seasons business so far has been in
sufficient; prices are irregular and in sew
eral directions weakening and some i'm
portant mills have adopted a short time
schedule. Specialties in cotton dress

RIGS have done we'll and are satisfactory
