DAILY NEWS. WEDNESDAY MOHNINU, AUGUST ?0, I860. THE DRY GOODS TRADE. The New York Times, i?f Uio 22?1, gives the fol lowing -very interesting statement concerning the dry good? trade: Tho market for domestic gootla has been quiet, bat steady, ?luring the past week. The compara tively low*prices at wliieli the raw material can now be purchased, combined with tho fact that there in more cotton offering for Europe than at any timo since before the late war commenced, httH exerted a depressing effect on the goods mar ket, and wo have accordingly to note some con cession on the part of holders of many descrip tions. "Wo do not mean to be understood that there is any general decline in prices, though cer tain articles can undoubtedly DO had something under last week's quotations. Tliis is especially tho caso with prints and the poorer makes of mus lins. Stocks arc light, but, with only a moderate request, holders are more disposed to realize than they havo been for some time past. Moreover some dealers, who are pretty well providod, mani fest an inclination to give way even more than thoy havo done, and they undoubtedly would wore - it.notfox others who exprisB their determination to hol'J out. The fact that though cotton has now sono down to about 43c. for middling, manufac turera are not buying, has some effect; but this is nearly counterbalanced by the scarcity of labor in f the manufacturing districts, which has the effect to materially curtail manufacturing. It is fearcil that a goOil deal'of difficulty will bo experienced >-* .- in procuring a sufficient number of operatives; but tho number has been materially augmented of lato t, by the arrival home of many who volunteered for v the war. Tilo Manchester market is reported by late arri vals to bo dull and heavy at lower rates as com pared with the quotation-) last month. Yarns are now lower by ?.d.@ld ?J? lb. in low counts anil quali ties, and ld.@lid."ji) lb in the finer counts and botter classes. \ gray printers, 20 yards, havo declined Gd.fuj-=i. *# piece, according to class and weight; 9-3 niadapollams have declined 6d.@9d. fr piece, and 9-8 printers also about tjd.?Od. piece; but they havo been in steadier demand an most other goods, except T clothe, which are only "Jd.@6d. *j9pieco lower; and domestic?, which have all along been freely purchased, remain -without quotable change. Tho heavier makes of ?5-4 shirtings suitable lor China have declined is. 3d.@l8. 6<i "$ piece during the month, but tho lighter makes, six pounds to seven pounds, moro especially adapted-to India, havo given way in price more considerably, and arc quoted ls.(a)2s. lower. Figured &nd brocado shirt inga have also falion in value about Is. 3d. \> piece, and India mulls and jaconcta about 3d.@4"?u. $ piece. The declino of Cotton tt Liverpool during the same pe riod may roundly be stateil at jd.?T?*?|d. -j?} lb in American and Egyptian; ."?l-l'l- ?P S? in Brazils?, and4@|d> *$ ttiin Last India descriptions, whilf from their scarcity Smyrna havo advanced 1*50 Id. # ft during tho month, from which it will be scon that the fall in valuo has buen considerably greater in Manchester than in Liverpool. Shirtings.ancltshcctinps must be written l@l*c. lower, price's having fallen in sympathy with cot ton. The demand is moderate at the. re/b??--.'ior. ban cTr-VL" excitement occasioned by the de falcations, forgeries, failures, Ac., having created a very uneasv feeling. The failures and rumored failures constitute the worst features of the trouble, as they destroy all confidence and unsettle "business greatly. The merchants do not know whom to trust, and paper is regarded with much suspicion evervwhere. Tho dry goods interest has suffered less than any other, perhaps, but the failure of several of tho largest banking firms cannot but effect every interest, to a groater or leas degree. . , .'.'... "Prints have been in demand, and most kinds command full prices, though ther? are some few exceptions. The market at the close, however, was heavy, and prices were barely sustained. - ?.. Reconstruction of a Commercial "View. The Philadelphia Ago exhibits in a striking light Ut? vn*-. imnnrt?it.i.i. ir, ihn whnln ?nantiy of the Bpccdy rcorcjanhtation of the Southern States, con aidorcd in its material aspect, commercially anil financially ; and it takes the best way of enforcing it by presenting the results of tho labor, and the character and amount of the products of the South previous to tho late unhappy war. To meet the liabilities imposed upon tue people by taxes, to liquidate tho principal and pay tho interest of tho enormous war debt, it is absolutely necessary that tho resources of tue country at lari?e should be developed and stimulated to their fullest extent ; and is is only by an enlightened, generous and liberal policy that wo can rehoyo the burden which is now weighing down the business, capital and energies of the N??rth. Facts aKil figures prove how much tho Southern States used to contribute to tho national wealth, and how necessary they are to tho restoration of our former prosperity. "It would be a short-sighted policv, indeed," says the Ago, <1to allow nearly one-half of tho nation tc become partially unproductive at this timo, in or der to try the experiment of currying out a theory In politics and industrial oconomy of doubtful ex pediency at bent, oven if practicable. Wa cannot afford to gamble with the material prospects oj tho nation at this period to satisfy sectional fanati cism." The total export value of the cotton crop of tho "United States was, in 1830, $30,000,000; in 1844. 464,000,000; in 1850, *72,000,OO0; fa I?56, ??28,000, ?00; in 1858, ?161,000,000; in 18C0, $232,000,000. II only one-third of the crop of 1860 can bo raised next year it will yield at least $200,000,000, for it will certainly bo worth three times as much per pound as it was then. To this must ho added other crops and products of the South, amounting to upwaraa of *7o0,000,009, exclusivo of rosin, tur pentino, tar, and many other important articles. The manufacture? of the South ar? also worthy ol consideration, which were considerably over $200,000.000 in 18t>0, and have sinco vastly increas ed, owing to the stimulus of necessity created by -the war. ...... It is in this view that the question of tho reor ganization of the Southern States appeals?not to tho radical politicians?but to sensible business mem the bankers, merchant?, capitalists, and po litical economists of the nation. "What is want ed," as the Age jnstly observes, "is reorganization based upon a wide, broad, catholic, business prin ciples, and not upon tho narrow, fanatical opin ions of sectional politicians." Wo earnestly com mend i to concluding words of wisdom to the serious consideration of all who are not blinded by thcir uchemea of par tizan ambition. " The people of the South are heartily desirous of restoring the old order of things. They are making the most and best of tho materials that the war has left them. They arc trvhig to svstem ?tize their labor and make it useful. And this ia the part of wise men. It is what is needed to bring np the South to its former standing, and it irill minister in a practical way to the prosperity ?of the whole nation. The earlier tho.business and trado of the South is put upon such a footing as will bring a return to the national 'treasury, the earlier will the people of the North feel the load of their taxation lighten. Better to have a product ivo South, such as it was in 1859. and a tree gov ernment, than an impoverished South and a mili tary despotism,. Tho common sense of the Amor tan people cannot fail to bring them eventually to this conclusion. '* This practical way of looking at tho question mould orrest tho attention and challenge the sym pathy of the solid men of tho notion. They -eon, and for their own sakes they muet, tako^tho mat ter out of the hands of sickly sentimentalists" and radical negro equality politicians. Tho best ?nter cata of the whole nation demand this of its citi zens, without regard to their political opinions upon other questions."?St. Louts Republican. . Krom Montreal. . . ?COintlTTAt?

The ravagea of tho __ anny worm prevented us flrom realizing the benefit IVom our outlay for the Lime in full, still tho large number of partly grown bolls and forms gave some idea of what the crop would bavo been could they have matured Al though we saved a largo quantity of manure on the place last year, our confidence in tho wliie of your Phosiihata led us to purchase of you last spring seventy tons, one-half of which we used ourselves, and the balance was bought for a friend, who was satisfied of its worth in cotton culture. At the time of writing this, our crop is look ing finely, and promises an abundant yield. Ono portion of our plantation consists of highlands with a clay sub soil, running near the surface; the remainder is flat and inclined to be sandy. The owner of the placo toUn uh that he did not succeed with cotton on this last part; but owing, as we think, to the liberal use of your PhoHphute we have now a good crop growing upon it. This is but the second season of cotton growingwith us; still from'our experience thus far, we do not hesitate to recommend your Phosphate of Lime as a manure well adapted to tho wants of tho cotton planter." N ?KWBEBnr, g. C, October 18G0 . Professor J. J. Mat__?Dear Sir: I bought twenty bogs of your Nitrogenized Superphosphate ol Lime of your Agents, Messrs. H. k N. E. Solomon, Hamburg, 8. C. (who solicited a statement of its effect*), and applied it to forty acres of my poorest cotton land. This land is on the public road, where its effects were seen. My neighbor?, who are acquainted with the land were astonished at the luxuriant growth of the cotton where I used your Superphosphate. It produced better cot ton, and a larger amount, than on my good land ; less work was needed in making tho cotton than on my other land. Not apartide of rust was to be seen wbcro I applied your Superphosphate, while the rust prevailed over every other portion of the crop. ^ Respectfully yours, DAVID PAYNE Note.?Mr. Payne's ?700a land compares favorably with the best cotton lands on the Saluda River. Tho H_luda bottoms are proverbial for producing large quantities of cotton. COTTON. Co___tdia, S. C, October IB, 1859 Mr. 3. 3. M_P_s? Dear Sir: In reply to yours of the 1st lnst, I cheerfully state: I have used Manes' Nitro genized Superphosphate of Lime on my cotton of the present year, and am perfectly satisfied with it* yield. * I can recommend it to my neighbors with confidence, as a pure and effective manure, and would give it tho preference to any other in the market. " Yours, respectfully, THOS. DAVIS. Mr. Charles W. Mixon, of Edcnton, Chowan County, N. C, writes to Mr. Bookover : In regard to Mapea' Phosphate It worked admirably for me, the prodnct being fully equal if not superior to both the manures before mentioned. It did not start the young plant as early as either the other manures; but it seemed to retain its color and pods much better, and no symptom of rust was ever seen where it wan applied?-oil the land I planted in cotton being about the same quality and strength. CHABLES W. MIXON. Extre-r* from a letter from Colonel Gideon Dowse, of Bcrzelia, near Augusta, Oa., August, I860: J. J. M_F_s? Dear Sir: I have no hesitation in 6ayinn that on my own farm your Superphosphato ban been, and Is now, superior In its effects, where I have Applied it on my cotton, to cither lot-manure or cotton seed ; and, M? compared to the land without manure in the same field lin my opinion the only true way to test it), it is a's four to one m the number of grown bolls, and as ten to ono in tho young fruit and forms, in favor of the Superphos phate. This opinion Is formed from a close and critical examination by my overseer and myself. There is one result from it? application, which, if-it had nothing else to recommend it, la of incalculable value, and that is it doea aeem to guard against that worst enemy of the cotton p'nnt, namely, the rust. 5 I have applied it to land that invariably rusts cotton, and there is as yet not a sign of rust in it, while the sama kind of land just adlo'nlng is ?omnletcly ruined by it already. This experiment confirms that made by Mr. Lomas, of S. C, last year; and I am fully persuaded that any nlanb manured wfth It does withstand a drought better and keeps green longer than with any other application that baa como under my notice. I havo seen cotton, corn, okra, melons and other garden plants, that have kept ercert during tho terrible drought that has so eompletely destroyed all our gardens, and my nutmeg melons are as irreoa and blooming as beautifully as in spring. I have written this as the result of my judgment from close observation. When I ?hall have gathered my crona It will give mo pleaauro to give you the result worn actual weight and measure. * y own, GIDEON DOWSE. Extract from Weekly Day-nook: " , . Nkw Yony, October 20, 1889. . I "Wo have, In the course of an extensive agricultural correspondence, gathered evidence of the superior valtto l of Mapcs' Nitrogenlzed Superphosphate of Lime upon the cotton fields of tho South, where Peruvian Guano nul been uaed wlthpartlal success. Tno bolls have been heavier, and of greater number, the yield of cohort per acre hasr _ been larger, and what is also of the greatest consequence, no rust is discovered in cotton fields whero thin article is applied, to which may be added its. peculiar lasting power of fertilization, and its comparative cheapness These facts havo come to us in correspondence from parties who have used other like agents, and who givo this by far tho highest praise. "Wo have arrived at the conclusion, after considerable experiment ourselves, and of careful search for the re sults of the trials of others, that Mapes' Fertilizer has more of.tho property needed in agency! manure in horticul ture and agriculture, than any thing else of the kind we are acquainted with. " Eno_-T___>, 8. 0., October 10. 1860. 3. 3. Mape?i, Esq., Now York?Dear Sir: I bought four tons of your Superphosphate ?f L?ue for my r?ttont crop, also some guano, and havo tried them side by side on the same quality of land. Not ? particle of rust was to be seen where yonr Superphosphate was used; and I also applied stable, manure on a portion of my land. Tarn cotton had the rust when the latter was used. The yield of cotton was splendid when tho Superphosphate waa used, despite the extraordinary dry year. When I applied the other manure the yield was not good. I applied the Superphosphate at tho rate of 100 lbs. per.acre, and believe it would have paid better if I bed nut more per acre. : y .I sold my cotton in Hamburg yoaterday at ,Vc per pound over tho usual market price.
