wholesale Dry-Goods Men Don't Think
There VIII BE Much Difference.

The opinion among Richmond whole
sale dry-goods merchants Is that the new
tariff will not have any appreciate effect
upon the price of the heavier cotton
goods, but may cause a slight decrease in
the price of the finer grades.
The new woollen schedule does not take
effect until January. and it is therefore
REGARDED as too soon To predict exactly
10 what extent the prices of woollen goods
viii be affected. That there Will be a
decided decline in all classes of woollen

PETERSBURG. VA. August 2s.-(Spe-
cial)-Should Mr.. William II. Mckinney
consent 10 allow his name to go before the

lieved there would be no doubt Of his
election An able lawyer. an accom-
plished and courteous gentleman, man
widely known in the counties. native
of Petersburg, an honest man in every
respect and universally respected and
beloved, he would make a glorious can
vass, and defeat would not lie at his
door. The Dispatch was the first paper
to intimate his candidacy, and If he should
be nominated the Dispatch will be among
the first to announce his election.
