Boston Boot and Shoe Market, Dec. 15,
The Shoe and Leather Reporter says: There is almost
a dead calm In the shoe trade tbe present week, and
trade will now be quiet until after our deale s and
manufacturers have taken account of stock,‘aad made’
their arrangements for the business of the 1865.
Manufactunre are making up a few goods, preparing
for the usual influx of customers in January, but they
are moving very cautiously. There-are considerable
stocks of boys’ aud youths’ boots on tue marketto be
carried over. The call for hoots, recently so active, has
fallen off, and the demandfor grain boots is over. We
look-for a quiet market in all branches for the next fort
night. The total shipment of boots- and shoes by rail
and sea for the week have been 7,685 eases. Of this
number 7,063 cases have been sent by rail as follows;
3,260 to New York and Pennsylvania, 143 to the Pouih>
erct States now in our possession, and 2. S6d to the West
ern fctateß— including 334 fori California. The clear
ances from the custom house have been 622 cases, among
which we notice 162 for Sau Francisco.
