DRY GOODS MPoRTAroNs.-The dry

port trade oi the country as compared

In 1s79!7S New York imported eighteen

Of this figure. In 1ss97o, however, the

the importation Of 1s7S'74 was exceeded
only by 1sS5-'6O and 1s5o'6o. In COM

EFfsm the PGrSorsburg Tiaos OF Tuesday.l
The present drouth Is becoming seri.
ouS and alarming. No rain OF any corse.
quence has fallen for the last four weeks,
and We, have not had q good soaking
shower for more than eigh; weeks. Day
alter day the gun pours down a scorching
heat, and most Of the time combined
with dry north wind, and weather more
uniavorable to both animal and vegetable
lie can scarcely be imagined, and, in con.
sequence, all kinds OF vegetables are
dropping aud must be ruined unless re-
lieved by heavy fall oirain. Corn seems
TO stand the droulh the beat of any
crop, but will surely be ruined II we
do not have rain soon. Potatoes and
nearly hll kinds Of garden vegetables look
very badly indeed. Fruits, apples and
grapes do not seem 10 be injured much as
yet, but raspberries were much injured;
and blackberrles, except where growing
near some brook, or other moist place, are
probably already injured past recovery.
From some parts oil the State VIC hear Of
showers, but in Writ county the drouth Is
even worse than here, and In several
counties up the Little Kanawhs, 1t Is sup.
posed TO be equally bad. It Is very diff
cult to work land in It's present dry con.
dition, and, working It now would be
likely to lnjure instead Of beneatng most

MAsnNoToN, JulY q

A gentleman holding q Government
Office which makes 1t his duty to make
frequent tours over that part ol the United
States lying west Of the Alleghenies, re-
turned to the city this morning from an
extended excursion over that section, and
reports that the sentiment Of the mass Of
the people with regard to imitation has
undergone q most radical and complete
change. BE states that when making q
similar trip In December and January
last he found the weight Of opinion In
favor OF initiation. Now, however, the
drift Is altogether changed, and Boutwell,
is receiving praise from all parties Tor the
soundness Ot his views as set forth in his
advocacy Of the do onothipg policy. This
the people have come to concede as wise,
and the result, It is predicted, will be the
return oi q Congress this fall the great
msjority Of whom will be committed to
that theory. The gentleman in question
does not explain how this remarkable
change has been effected, but Is inclined
70 attribute 1t TO the cool reflection that
followed the fever brought on by the
panic, which sober second thought he
thinks was greatly aided by President
Grants veto message and the publication
Of Mr.. Jones' little memorandum.

feature Of the currency bill which allows

ready something over 81 1000 900 Of

Questionable. II any considerable part Of
the national banks propose 10 give up
their circulation In this way, and sell their
bonds, there will be a large amount oi
greenbacks Withdrawn from circulation,
and large addition to the supply ol gov.
eminent bonds on tho market. With
most banks, however, the question will be
one Of profit, and We think that compare.
lively lew banks will be ableto make as
large dividends without their circulation
as with II. The other thing affecting the
market Is the proposal ol The Secretary
Of the Treasury 10 place the remaining
$l7O, 600. 600 Of the funded loan 8 per
cent. bonds. The price Of these bonds in
the open market Is now nearly 3 per cent
above par in gold, but there is the uncer.
tainty Of whether they will keep up un-
der the negotiations proposed. Already
the 8 20 six per cent bonds have declined
to about the same level as these now
hyes, which indicates that 1t Is considered
probable that the negotiations will be
euccessful, and the 20I oI 1893 will all
be called in and redeemed.

The Coming Vote On the ain,

The people Of this county are pretty
well informed on the question that viii
como before them Of the polls on the 2lst
Of this month. It's, In brleI,'whether
they are willing to vote $Soo,0oO more to
complete the P. W. d Ky. RailroGdS OF
whether they prefer to sink their present
investment in II by turning the road over
TO parties who may be willing to take II
% 1t stands and finish Il The county
now has $4,000 invested. Brooke
county proposes TO assume the In
terest on 10000 Of the additional
100000 asked for. 30 that Il We
vote the additional amount we will have
an investment Of $4,000 TO pay interest
upon and ultimately TO pay of in case the
road fails to meet the liabilities in our
stead. As shown in our report Of the
Court House meeting Of Tuesday night,
Mr.. HuBBARD and Prof PERDLRToN arc
firmly persuaded that iEwould be unwise
iol our people to abandon the enterprise
a. It now stands They seem to entertain
little or no doubt that the road will not
only meet the interest on the $4,000
aGked for, but also, withinA reasonable
period, on the former $4,000, and that
ultimately 1t will become q source Of
profit to the county.
We do not undertake to say how far all
the actual facts and figures that properly
belong to the discussion Of this question,
could they be got at, would sustain the
Views and arguments Of these gentlemen.
We understand that there Is quite mis-
take in their data as regards the busl-
ness done between this city and the
Bridgeport depot. That business, both
through and way, does not amount in
transfer charges to $l6. 900 per year. That
Is to say, the transfer contractors do not
receive from the Cleveland & Pittsburgh
Railroad and from consignees In this city
that amount Of tolls on ali the goods they
deliver inthe course Of year. Tho great
bulk Of the business between Wheeling
and all points Kast and West Is done by
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. Why
will that road not continue to do the same
business when the P. W. .&Ky. Ia finished I
This is an important question.
Another consideration: When the P.
W. & KY. road Ia finished will not all the
freight now delivered free by the Q. 8 P.
and the B. s. o. road become chargeable
with drsysgeH Will not that draysge en-.
tail q loss upon this city Of q sum nearly
or quite equal to the interest on the $780,.
900 asked lotH This also is an important
question, q
