WOOL MARKETS.
BOSTON.

| BOSTON.
| August 2-The wool market has been fully
as active this week as it was last and the sales
of fleece wool continue large There is very
little change in prices Some dealers are hold-
ing their stocks very firmly, in anticipation of
higher prices. but very few sales are made at
any advance on last weeks figures, and, as a
rule. dealers are rather anxious TO dispose of
wool at ruling rates. as stocks are heavy and
press upon the market. The receipts continue
heavy and the maik is well supplied A con-
siderable portion of the fleece wool has been
sold on private terms, but we quote Ohio Y and
Xxx fleece at i9a5lc, with most sales at about
Soc. Michigan Y 45a4sc. Wisconsin 45a46c at
which rates manufacturers are purchasing
freely.
The demand for pulled wool has been limit
ed. and prices are quite irregular. Combing
wool has been in fair demand, with very little
change in prices
NEW YORK.
August Tine market can now be called in
a better position than it has been for many
mouths past. 1t is entirely devoid OF specula-
tive feeling, and manufacturers may now come
into the city understanding fully the value of
the description they wish TO purchase. 'Tis
true that the margin is very light ON fieeces
when the prices asked by farmers is consulted.
but the dealers are now satisfied with the old
motto. "quick sales and small profits" and for
that point they are now aiming. Foreign is In |
much better demand and prices are firm. We

atnrs AMEs and ALCORN has been revived
by the nomination OF the former for gov
ernOr with view to his re election to the
Senate al the end Of his term which ex-
pires in 1875 ALCoWN has two years
longer u serve in the Senate, but In or
der to head OF AMEs announces himself
a. an independent candidate for
governor. Both parties have many
friends and both profess TO he the
devoted friends OF the COlOIed men
who constitute majority Of the
voting population. ALcoRN is an old
time Southern politician oil varied ante
cedenls and Of considerable ability as
stump orator. AMEs is young West
Pointer, fresh from the army and Of short
political experience and little ability in
anything. Both of the Senators, like all
Of their Southern colleagues, are bsck.psy
grabbers Of the striCtest sect, and neither
would be selected for official hOnovs by a
northern Republican convention.
