COTTON BANKING.—The Bullionist censures
Liverpool for its agitation for money and its
dissatisfaction with the limitations imposed by
the Bank of England to a -free circulation of
drafts, to be used for, or instead of cash, for
cotton payments. The number of these drafts that
might be created out of what seems straightforward
dealing is enormous. Then there are creations of
doubtful drafts, presenting with the other a sum
that might rest as a shadow on all bona fide MlR-

Liverpool system is traced the present anomalous
price of cotton, and the disturbance in the
spinning and weaving districts. It confers
on cotton an artificial value as regards other
thinizt. The price of tea and sugar is adjusted
according to the fixed valuation of an ounce of
bullion ; cotton, on the contrary, is governed
more or less by the ability of the banker
to accommodate his customers. Assuming
that £1,000,000 of three months, drafts were
afloat in Liverpool, passing from hand to
hand, each receiver endorsing the draft he passes ;
each draft serving 12 or 14 times as a medium of
cotton payments; practically, for cotton dealings,
the circulation of Liverpool would receive the ac-
cession of £12,000,000 to .C 14,000,000. It is not
surprising, it adds, that under such a forcing system
Cotton should fluctuate and maintain a price to

this system, and under such a reform of our money
matters, as Liverpool has often asked, the Bullionist
forbears to say ; and concludes that the practice
must Dow be stopped, Liverpool drafts on London
be in future short dated, and those of a doubtful
type be regarded as spurious notes and treacherous
lin a high degree.
