So much effort to make sales has rarely been put ferth; and the disposition was everywhere manifest to close transactions and to -realize.’ The con- cessionin dress goods is large: it extends to prints and all fine fabrics; on standards and woolens it is lightest. The fallin one month, on the basis of some of the prices of goods sold at auction yesterday, is reported to be fully one hundred per cent., but this is of course no criterion whatever of the market. The average decline may not exceed twenty or twenty-five per cent. in that line. There is avery general feeling of insecurity in business circles, amounting almostto a panic in some quarters: a@d this adds to the depression. Nobody questions the policy of selling; but the public, and particularyly the men in business do not readily buy. penecseend oe eee Reticence is Very Likety.—In the course of a debate in the British House of Commons, on the 2d inst..
