By other persons again the prudent increase of the bullion reserve in the Bank of England is deemed likely to go on and will promote with other causes a large shipment of gold from this side. Various classes of men are thus arguing from the peculiar aspect of the question which is most familiar to them that gold, independent of any speculative manoeuvres, ought to rise, and there is certainly the more force in their arguments from the fact that till seen in Wall street.

How accurately Mr. Boutwell has interpreted the signs of the times in legerdemain can long keep it at 110 or at adopting his policy for keeping gold down, and with what success he will be able to keep up that policy, the country watch with much eagerness to see. Certainly it is on accounts to be desired that coin and paper should be at par. Whatever legitimate action on the part of Congress or the Treasury shall keep them nearer together and prevent will many their divergence is a great public gain. It is because of its expected influence on the gold premium and on the inflation of the currency that the new bank law of 1870 was most vehemently opposed by a large majority of our leading financial men. If this increase of bank notes shall have a tendency to postpone specie payments and to retard the steady appreciation of our paper money, which with constant progress has been going on for some years, the country will have purchased at too dear a rate the acknowledged advantages secured for the South and West by the new facilities for the multiplication of the banks.

Though large in the aggregate, it I. not. however, probable that this movement materially affected the recorded results, which, up to 1801. show comparatively unimportant fluctuations. But at that time the outbreak of the war create<l in the specie movement of the East, as In many other channels of trade the most violent changes. The cutting off of all supply of cotton from our seceded States, compelled England to drain Clilna and the East Indies of their stocks, and to encourage increased cultivation of this Important staple In aU her Eastern colonies. The consequent Increased importation of cotton from those countries, at very high figures, necessarily led to an mcreased export of specie to pay for It, the compaVatlve ignorance and poverty of the producers not admitting of a corresponding Increase in the consumption of British products. The effect waa almost instantaneous. From less than 50 millions In 1860 the bulUon export; to the East In 1862 had risen to neariy 100 milUons, and in 1864 exceeded 130 millions, actually requiring nearly 80 per cent more than the whole production of the year, and reducing the stock at the disposal of the commercial community by at least fifty millions in the two years of 1863 and 1864, a circumstance which probably had a greater influence in bringing about the crisis of 1866 than is generally believed. In 1864 the highest figures were reached, and they have since steadily though irregularly declined for the last two years they have fallen below the average of the period prior to 1861. ; THE EASTWARD SPECIE MOVEMENT. Almost simultaneously with the increased sUver production of our Pacific coast, and improved refining facilities, our direct trade [COMinmiCATED.] from San Francisco with the East was developed, and a One of the elements most directly inauenclng the question of large portion of our annnal silver product was shipped directly resuming Bpecie payments is undoubtedly to be sought in the from California, although principally for British account, to China, supply of the precious metals that we can retain for the purpose.

But not only of the domestic and foreign movement combined, show pretty conclusively have we thus furnished an important part of the supply that for the last ten years we have exported annually very nearly our total annual production, leaving but a moderate amount for our domestic consumption, which is very large. Precisely how large this consumption really is we have no means of estimating but it undoubtedly largely exceeds the general belief. In a law. Eastern demand by our for the direct shipments ii-om California, but we have furnished by our exports from New York to England, and from California to England, a far larger proportion of the whole. Indeed, during the last ten years it is scarcely an exaggeration to say that our exports of specie have been regulated chiefly by the was developed that one demand from the East. For some years past the accumulation of •single firm in CJonnecticut alone uses |20,000 of silver annually coin and bullion at all the European financial centres has far exfor plating knife blades, the last article, probably, that any one ceeded the legitimate requirements of commerce, and in a healthy would think of, as requiring any large amount of the precious condition of our own trade, there is no reasonable probability that metals. Of such industries there are, however, a large number, we should have been called upon for large shipments, had it not which in the course of a year consume a very important aggregate been for the enormous demand from the East. But the absence of gold and silver for plating and gilding, in addition to the large of our usual cotton supply to balance our European accounts, the amounts used for manufacturing directly into gold and silverware consequent necessity of cotton from the East, which could only be of every description. No reliable figures are in existence concern- paid for in specie, compelled Europe to look to us for the coin and ing the amounts thus used, but they are certainly important bullion to fill the vacuum which the Eastern drain would other enough to lend an air of probability to the estimates which assert wise have made in their reserves.

Our cotton crop of 1869 approached the mag. nitude of antiwar times, while that of 1870 promises to nearly equal the most favored years. Whether or not it will net pro. ducers as much at present low figures as a smaller crop might The fact is, that if we could be guaranteed against an have done at higher prices is not now important. we might safely resume with a very it supplies the demand of English spinners to a larger extent, and while even a large reserve of coin and diminishes the need of supplies from East India and other cotton- country does not at best exceed, if it equals, that of 1861. Without expressing a positive opinion on this subject, we think there can be no doubt but that our ability to resume and to main, tain resumption depends far more upon the prospect of a drain after resumption than upon a large stock of specie at the time of resuming ; that, in fact, Important foreign drain, moderate amount of coin, bullion might not prevent disaster, producing countries. we were England are diminishing, and with the diminished cotton receipts come diminished exports of coin to pay for them. Throughout the earlier part of 1870 the direct exports of cola from England to the East dwindled down to very small figures, if immediately after resumption compelled to re-commence heavy shipments abroad. We repeat, therefore, that the most important question connected with Teenrnption is the probable amount of our annual production that we may be able to retain for the purpose, and on this subject some recent movements of the bullion trade throw Important and valu- able light.

It and that, although some years elapsed before they obtained them^ appears, therefore, that Mr. Thomas Howard commenced business the transactions in connection with them during that period, as a cotton spinner at Hyde, in Cheshire, about 50 years ago, and were of a most profitable character.

Notwithstanding the large fortune that Mr. Howard had accumulated, the prospect -of The state of anarchy which exists in France continues to affect favorably the market for English securities, and British railway shares have further advanced in price. The accumulation of one month induced him to enter into a in the London market is unchecked, and notwithstanding the payments of the quarter which are now being made, the supply of gold held by the Bank of England has further increased. It is expected, however, that a considerable supply of sovereigns "making" ,£25,000 in Lever, which the latter contended would yield £jO,000 which was to be e<iually divided. This speculation was no less than the celebrated Ualway line of packets to America, and speculation Avitli Lever contended that tlie eight steamships necessary might be bought at a very low price and be sold to the Government in a month at the above named profit. Howard was persuaded, there, fore, to advance £220,000, partly in cash, and accepted bills for the remainder, which were drawn by Lever and were discounted by Overend, Guriicy & (^o. In IHGO and lyOl Howard executed mortgages to Overend, Giirney & Co., and gave; up title deeds representing property worth considerably more than £(50,000. He also met bills With cash to the extent of £02,000, but in June, 1803, Messrs Overend, (jriiiney & Co., sent him an account whereby they made him their debtor to the extent of £016,710. A very large pro portion of tlie charges was made up of Lever's banking account wliich JIe^'l:rs. Overend had united to that of Mr. Howard, who had been made liable not only for transactions arising out of the sale and puri;hnse of the eight ships, but for a mass of bills that related to a whole fleet of Lever's ships.

But there is a great distrust of Continental (excepting German) securities and, consequently, it is thought that further loans for Turkey, Italy and Spain would be impolitic at the present time.

The last statement of the associated Banks of this city was quite favorable, exhibiting in its results a material increase in legal tender reserves, and showing the eifect produced by the return to business channels ot the funds previously " locked up," and of the moderate currency movement from the interior towards thi centre.

The natural tendency the past week should have been towards easier rates, but this was greatly checked by the remarkable activity in stocks, which has created, as usual, a large demand lor new loans on call, and also given rise to much shifting of loans previously outstanding.

Subscriptions to the new loan have not recently been very large, and the total up to the close of this week will not probably exceed $63,000,000. All parties are waiting for the first of next month, when it is understood that the Secretary of the Treasury Wjill take a review of what has been done up to that time, and change in some material respects his plans for negotiating the new bonds. In the mean time, it does not appear likely that subscriptions will be very large, and the total up to May 1 will not, therefore, greatly exceed the amqunt already made. At the Government purchase of $3,000,000 Five-Twenties on Wednesday, bids amounted to $6,391,600. At the purchase on Wednesday next it is anticipated by some that $5,000,000 of bonds will be tajven by the Government, but this is without any official intimation to that effect.

States Bonds— Government Bonds have been strong in prices but without much activity in business. Currency 6s close about the same as last Friday, Five-Twenties of 1867 i@i higher, and Ten-Forties \ per cent higher. In the early part of the week bonds were apparently strengthened by the rise and further upward tendency of gold, but when the treasury sold $4,000,000 on Thursday this supporting influence was lost, and there was a fractional decline. It seems probable, however, that the eSect of the gold sale referred to, was quite as much felt in unsettling business as in the immediate influence of depressing the gold premium, as the action of Secretary Boutwell in thus departing suddenly from his published programme for the month, without giving previous notice, brought an element of uncertainty upon the maiket which produced a temporary depression. Nothing is now assuredly known as to what amount of bonds may be purchased, or gold sold, next week, and it is this uncertainty, rather than the purchase or sale of a large or small amount of bonds or gold, which dealers in Government bonds ll>-40'8, Pbb 4 ,..,.....,, Saturday, Monday, April 15.

State and Railroad Bonds.— The general list of Southern State bonds has been only moderately active, with less fluctuaNew South Carolinas, Tennessees and old North tion than usual. The Carolinas show some advance on our last quotations. Governor of South Carolina has written a letter, in which he states that the condition of affairs in that State is not nearly as bad as has generally been represented, that the absolute debt of the State does not exceed $8,000,000, and that the contingent liability by railroad endorsements is secured by liens on property sufficient to protect the State. Pacific railroad bonds have shown a conspicuous advance on all classes. Central Pacifies have sold up to 101i<@103, the closing price to-night, this important rise having been stimulated by the a4miB8ion ot the bonds to the regular call at the Berlin Exchange. Union Pacific bonds have advanced on the anticipation that they may be placed on the call of the London Stock Exchange, and also from the general improvement ia the prospects ol the road K V « K H H M ; accniint of the 1nr|;<' shli ni^nt* of last we<-k and the prospect of a ointiiiuntion of tlio oiitwnnl inovi^innnt during thl* werk.

' developed a further remarkable activity in the stock market, with great buoyancy in prices, and transactioDB of enormous extent. I'liero has been no similnr movement in stocks, with such wide fluctuations in prices, and so jjeneral a support from the outside public, since the panic of September, 186!>. Although prices are now much hi|y;her than they iiave been lor a longtime previously, the confidence and enthusiasm of buyers seems to increase with the advance in price*, and a stock which was not considered a good )>urcliaBe at 90 or even at 80 is now taken eagerly at 100. and this too, without any material change in the actual condition or income of the railroad or other property which the stock represents. New York Central and Hudson River has sold up to lOOi, scrip to 90}, (both ox dividend of 4 per cent), Lake Shore to 11 Reading to 110} Ohio and Mississippi to 58J Wabash to 6.^i Northwest to 91} do. preferred to 100^ Western ITnion Telegraph to 58^, and other stocks to similar high figures, as indicated in the quotations below. Cleveland and Pittsburg has sold above 130 on the rumor, which seems to be preity well authenticated, that a scrip dividend will soon be made, though the exact amount of such dividend is not yet known, SO per cent being the common report it has also been stated, but without equal certainty, that the road will pass under the control of the Pennsylvania Central. Lake Shore has been the subject of a similar report, viz.: that it would be leased to the New York Central and Hudson River and a scrip dividend declared, after which a regular quarterly dividend of 3 per cent would be guaranteed on the enlarged capital, the report, however, Tacks any otHcial confirmation. Various other reports have been circulated in regard to leading stocks, and have unquestionably had a certain effect upon prices, in the present excited and sensitive condition of the market, but they lack any such authoritative confirmation as to warrant us in giving them a place in our report. The Erie Railway Company gave notice to the Stock Kxchange on Wednesday that they had increased the common stock f 3,000,000 by the issue of convertible bonds this was in violation of the rule requiring thirty days' notice of any increase in stock to be given to the Exchange, but, the governing Committee, instead of striking the stock from tlie call, resolved to suspend their rule^>ro tempore, and in the meantime, as the Farmers' Loan and Trust Company have agreed to admit no stock to registry till the end of thirty day^, the new stock is not a good delivery. As to the future course of the stock market, it is impossible to striking feature in the predict with any degree of certainty. recent upward movement has been the readiness with which large amounts of stock thrown upon themarket have been taken, without causing anything like a break in prices, or more than a slight and temporary depression. This undoubtedly shows great confidence in purcliasers, but t'>e movement cannot always go on in a crescendo, and, if the experience of the past is of any value, it would seem fair to conclucje that after stocks have been well distributed by the cliques, among outside buyers at the present relatively high prices, the sjieculative support will be taken away firom the market, and a decline of greater or less extent will be H ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ^ A the result.

The action of Mr. Boutwell in thus purchaoing a mnch larger amount than his published programme called for, is severely criticized, on the ground that It immediately throws a cloud of uncertainty over allhis future purchases of bonds and sales of gold ; and it Is contended that public notice of the intention to sell a larger amount, should have previously l)een given, if only on the morning of the day of sale.

The charter gives the company the right to construct a railway from Wheeling, West Va., to Greensburg, Pa. The road was completed from Wheeling to Washington, Pa., and has been in operation for several years, and considerable grading has been done on the eastern end of it. The probabilities now are that it will be completed at an early day to a point where it intersects the Connellsville, near West Newton. — .Sarlem River and Portchester. The bill to extend tbe time for completing the Harlem River and Portchester Railroad for two years was passed by tbe Legislature on Tuesday evening. The $1,000,000, of which the greater portion has already been subscribed. Under the original charter granted in 1866, the road was to have been completed within five years from tbe passage of the act. Tbe greater part of the strip of land (four rods wide) required for the road has been given to capital stock of the the Evansville, Carmi and Paducah County Railroad, under the name and style of tbe St. Louis and Southeastern Railroad Company, with a capital atock of $10,500,000, were filed in the office of the Illinois Secretary of State on the 11th inst. This consolidation makes a continuous line of road from East St. Louis to Shawneetown, running through a splendid country. The Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad is progressing rapidly! the western end 90 miles are graded, and 100 miles will be ready for the iron witbin 90 days. There are 300,000 tiei on hand, which are going down. Some 8,000 tons of iron are on the way, and track laying on the western end will be pushed with vigor, during the spring and summer months. The Company advertises for proposals for the construction of shops on a grand scale at tbe new city of Huntington, in Western Virginia. The city is likely to grow with great rapidity in consequence of the location of engine shops. On Jfackson, I^anslng and Saginaw.— Work on tbe northern extension of the Jackson, Lansing and Saginaw line is being pushed rapidly forward, and by tbe close of tbe present season the road wUl be finished well toward the Straits. Tbe track is now laid to a point within ten miles of Pine River, and 100 more men are soon to be put on. According to the terms of the charter, tbe road must be finished by the close of 1873.

The road-bed has been partly graded, and in some places culverts have been constructed under the embankments. A few of the bridge abutments have also been buUt. The Knoxvllle and Kentucky and the Knoxvllle and Charleston Railroads bave made an agreed case with the At- the torneys for the State of Tennessee. The State agrees to accept from the former eight hundred thousand dollars, and from tbe latter three hundred thousand dollars, of the bonds of the State, in full satisfaction of tbe debt which the State has against these roads. Ninety days are allowed within which one-fourth of the amount is to be paid. The stockholders in the former get rid, by this arrangement, of an indebtedness of over two millions of dollars, and'in the latter of over half a million dollars.

The case will be tried at the May term of the Court, The Ohio and ]TTlsslsslppl Railroad,— The Buit of the Erie Railway Company, to restrain the Ohio and Mississippi Railway Company from narrowing its guage, has been amicably settled and withdrawn, and mutual releases have accordingly passed between tbe two Companies. — The Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad was finally completed April 10, giving Pittsburg a direct connection with Baltimore. This company has for years been struggling under heavy disadvantages pecuniary and legal. Five years ago, rival interests were brought to bear against the company, which seemed almost friendless, and an act passed tbe Pennsylvania Legislature forfeiting its charter for abuse and misuse of its corporate franchise. The passage of this act was a crisis in the history of the road, tbe forfeiture of its charter being considered oppressive, and stirred up the friends of the road to unceasing energy. After a long struggle, tbe nullifying act was repealed, and the company restored to its franchise, and the city of Baltimore and tbe Baltimore and Ohio road then took an active interest in its behalf, subscribing largely to its stock, and through the active co-operation of President Garrett, of tbe Baltimore and Ohio road, its early completion was assured. Since that time President W. O. Hugbart has pushed the road with extraordinary vigor, and to-day, together with B. H. Latrobe, Chief Engineer, and the former President, performed the duty of spiking the last rail at a point near Mineral Point. Immediately upon its completion, the first train proceeded to Cumberland, passing over a temporary road which had been constructed over Brook tunnel, which is not yet completed. The total length of the road from Pittsburg to Baltimore is three hundred and twenty-five miles the highest grade fifty feet to a mile. Express trains, when running regularly, are expected to make the distance from Pittsburg to Washington in ten hours, via the Point of Rocks route. When completed, the road will have cost nine millions of dollars. Through passenger trains will commence running next Monday. Cincinnati Mailroad Recm'd. ; — The last spike of the Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad, forming a continuous route between Pittsburgh and Baltimore, nia Cumberland, was driven on April 11, at a point near tbe Forge Bridge, three miles west of Mineral Point, tbe ceremony having been performed by the President, W. 0. Hugbart and the Engineer and former President, B. H. Latrobe. Much praise is due to John W. Garrett, President of tbe Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, for his unwavering zeal and effort in behalf of tbe road. — that President Huntington, of the Chesapeake and New York last week with a party of civil engineers, iron furnace men, for tbe western terminus of that road near Greyandotte to confer with tbe officers of the Western roads about connections with tbe Trunk Line, and to locate tbe Ohio River bridge site, company's shops, and other works. He will remain at the Ohio terminus about a week. It is stated Ohio Railroad, left — A trial trip was made over the Alabama and Chattanooga Railroad on April 6, which was eminently satisfactory, tbe rate of speed being fifty-five miles per hour. The road will probably be opened for traffic on May 1, when passengers between New York and New Orleans, will save ten hours in time and a proportionate amount in the fare. —The New Orleans, Mobile and Chattanooga Railroad Company, which legislative enactments in the different States through Orleans, Mobile passes, has had its titled changed to tbe by New it and Texas Railroad Company. — The last spike of the Memphis and Little Bock Railroad, was driven at Dnvall's Bluff, on April 13, and the road will shortly be opened for business.

The Tolume of business has Increased somewhat and the market generally has shown more life, and in some cases an Improved tone. Jajians are atUl so irregular as to render quotations quite difficult and in all cases nominal, but Oolongs are evidently settling Into a more steady position, and Qrecns have really become Arm on all good to prime grades, with the ordinary qualities also commencing to partake of the improvement, and holders though accepting full bids showing no anxiety to hurry business, as foreign advices of late data are quite stimulating. Through reliable private sources we learn from Shanghae that the Tea season has closed, with a total export to the United States and Canada of only 18,750,000 lbs. The export to Englind la also reported short as compared with previons seasons. The season In China is thus closed on a short crop two mimths earlier than nsiud, and its a resttlt wo may look for a gradual falling ofT in our later receipts. Teas came to band much earlier than usual this year owing to the Introduction of ateam transportation, and this giving the impression that the supply would be excessive undoubtedly caused the recent break In values. There is no doubt, however, that consumers are operating in a more cautious manner than iu former years, and taking little stock in excess of known wants. Sales of 12,400 Qreenai 80,000 Oolongs (part to arrive) and 1,800 Japans. The imports this week consist of the arrival of 617.587 lbs. of Green tea and 3,807 lbs. of Japan, per "' Levi Stevens" from iSliangliae I,()70.tM5 lbs. of Black, per " Orpheus^' from Foochow 528.000 lbs.

The receipts of "I'ca overland by railroad have this week amounted to 2,010 pkg*. COFFEE. The anticipations of an increased call from the Interior have not been realized, and the hopeful tone noticeable at the close ol our hist report is In part dissipated. Holders as a rule remain Arm at former rates, and arc not offering any very large amount of goods; but they aro not encouraged by a demand from jobbers, and arc simply obliged to muster op all the patience possible and await an opening of the outlet A few buyers have appeared, but thcj were by no means anxions; and when finally induced to operate took invoices enough to satisfy early wants. Among the jobbers a small amonnl of stock has been distributed on mall orders from regular customers, but in the majority of eases there is a complaint of a dull business. The stock of Brazils has not increased to any extent, and the assortment contlnnes poor; but there is evidently enough for the wants of the market, as the call generally Is slack, and Kdlers more disposed to operate than buyers. The recent advices from Rio Janeiro show no margin for ImjiorterB at current rates, and the natural inclination is to resist a further decline; yet it is prulty certain just largo fair bid a number of psrcola could be found available. Java supply, and the stock being well under rontnd owners show consid erable llrinness, though finding It extremely difficult to realiau outside Ognres except on prime brown lots.

Shelled Almonds have sold to some extent at full prices. Firecrackers are In good demand and for There has been a gradnaUy improving feeling noticeable in the market prices have finally advanced.^especially on Buyers refining grades, with a pretty strong tone current at the higher figures. a rule have not displayed an increased anxiety or an intention to depart Eaws throughout; the week and as from the previous policy of caution in regulating operations as closely as posmust be sible to actual wants, hut these wants are now becoming larger and Refiners have sold their product about as fast as they could get it ready, and nsed up a great proportion of back purdiases, and though the stock in first hands has not sufl'ered materially from the business doing, the consumption slight has undoubtedly exceeded the receipts. There has been daveloped a bulls or speculative feeling, but the movement is not general, nor do either bears feel confident of a very large margin. The private advices from Cuba are said to still report the position of afi'airs as a little doubtful, but on the whole favorable for our Importers, and for a few days past there has been noticeable among the trade an inclination to accept the rumors of a falling ofi' in the amount produced as well founded. Clayed Muscovado and Centrifugal cured goods have all met with some call, and the last named grade is now rather scarce. Grocers can occasionally be found in the market, but they take only very small parcels. Eeflned have been in good and quite general demand, and the production was not allowed to accumulate to any extent on any grade, while prices gradually worked upward and rule comparatively strong at the dose.

Refiners appear to have enough stock on hand for all current wants, either from previous purchases or direct importation. The trade' are distributing too slowly to make them at all anxious about purchasing [additional supplies, and with absolutely no call whatever from distillers the common qualities have simply to go into store and await an outlet. The stock in first hands, however, does not increase with much rapidity, and to some extent sympathizing with the sugar market values are very fairly sustained on all the upper For domestic there has been a moderate jobbing inquiry, and as the goods wanted were mostly of extra fine quality full prices were insisted upon and obtained. The stock, however, is mostly poor, and it is useless to offer It at present except with an intention of accepting very low bids, as buyers have no nse for the goods.

Yet on the whole there is a fair amount of strength extant and it would probably be difficult to induce any Important concessions as the supply available is not likely to increase for some time and foreign advices to latest dates were encouraging. In jobbing lots there has been a good uniform movement for the week embracing pretty much all styles of stock, and dealers are enabled to realize full former rates with sufficient ease to call the market firm. ® ® ® ll)i® ..® 3 50 V Currants, new Citron.

This goods, which are is especially the case with domestic cotton held by distributors in more liberal supply than foreign goods. There is a moderate inquiry for second purchases from the trade In some of the larger cities, and business is by no means at a standstill, though the movements are small as compared with those of a few preceding weeks. The weather has not been very favorable for an active retail trade, and until it becomes more settled the demand from consumers is not likely to be spirited. There is some complaint of the tightness of money in the country, but as the rule, collections are free, and the trade seems to be in a very healthy financial condition. — Domestic Cotton Goods. The market for cotton fabrics has experienced few changes since our last review, and, as regards prices, remains steady. Brown and bleached cottons are in good request in the finer grades, and the stock of the most favorably very light. Lower grades are rather less active, and in some instances a moderate accumulation is reported. Prices are steady, however, and one or two brands have been advanced ic. in known is consequence of a scarcity. Colored cottons are quiet, but remain steady at unchanged quotations. Prints are in good demand, and the best makes are selling with comparative freedom. There is no important accumulation of stock reported, many but, on the contrary, styles of light colorings are entirely sold out. Prices are without change and are well sustained, both by the small supply and the rise in cloths, although the latter is thought by many to from speculation. Domestic Woolen Goods. result chiefly — There is a good demand for light weight cassimeres, in the finer qualities, and the few commission houses who held any assortment of these goods are doing an active business. The production of these goods has been imnsuaUy small this season, and a majority of the commission houses are entirely sold out. There is a moderate inquiry for heavy weights, but no large transactions are made, in consequence of the scarcity of stock, and it is probable that transactions wiU be restricted for some time to come by the limited production, as manufacturers are indisposed to purchase wool in very large amoimts at its present prices, unless higher prices can .be estab- Cloths are selling fairly in heavy weights, but lished in goods.

There is more ment in imported than in domestic ness doing in is all classes activity in the jobbing moveand a moderate busi of goods suited to the current wants of fabrics, the distributive trade. Dress linens are selling well at full prices other suiting fabrics are also in good request, especially thin goods designed for the Southern and Southwestern markets. There is a good inquiry for woolens in first hands, and orders for large amounsB have been placed by jobbers and other early buyers. The prospect for higher prices on domestic woolens is stimulating the trade in foreign goods, and an active season is anticipated. The exports of dry goods for the past week, and since January 1, 1871, and the total for the same time in several previoos years sire shown raoaiw Domeatics. Val. pkKi.
