OUR COTTON SUPPLY.

At the annual meeting of the Cotton Supply Associa-
tion, at Manchester, some interesting facts were given with
respect to our supply of cotton. The report of the committee
contained the following remarks, amongst a vast amount of
information :—" Our supplies of cotton are not yet so large
and certain as to render further exertions unnecessary.
Cheap cotton in abundance is still the great desideratum, and
can only be expected as the cultivation is extended and
the production enlarged. The past year has afforded
confirmation of the opinion expressed by the committee
in their last report, viz., that 'the Southern States of
America, in their altered condition, would not furnish
cotton so abundantly as before the war,' and that conse-
quently it is still incumbent upon the association to
encourage renewed exertions to extend and improve the
cultivation of the staple in other countries. The appeals
embodied in an address to cotton growers, which
the committee prepared . and translated into the diffe-
rent languages of India and other countries, and
which was widely circulated, had a beneficial effect,
whilst the high prices that have since prevailed have
tended everywhere to sustain the desire and purpose to
grow cotton. The committee have recently been much
gratified with some beautiful specimens of cotton grown
at the Cape of Good Hope, Fiji, and other new sources,
which encourage the expectation of further supplies.
The committee have also been gratified with the success
which has attended the attempt to establish cotton
cultivation in the province of Sao Paulo, which promises
to he one of the most valuable of our new sources
of supply. The last crop was expected to produce 1,000,000
of arrobas of 321bs. each. The Foreign 'Office has
continued to supply valuable information respecting
the state and prospects of the crops, by means of reports
received from her Majesty's consuls in the various coon•
tries where cotton is grown. The Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs has again readily assented to the request
of the association to send out a fresh set of queries to be
answered by the consular agents, in order that the most
reliable information as to our probable supplies of cotton
this year may be obtained. The committee, confirmed
in their conviction of the vast capabilities of India
as a cotton•growing country, by the results already
obtained, have given anxious attention to the
measures most likely speedily to realise their hopes.
Believing that India can yet be made equal to America as
a source of cotton supply, the committee earnestly recim.
mend their successors to spare no efforts to carry on the
work of improvement which has now fairly corn-
menced ; and they are confident that any amount
of labour that may be expended will eventually meet
with a full reward. The committee have observed mid:
much regret that the Ottoman Empire has not made
such progress as a cotton growing country :Is there seemed
reason to anticipate. The earnestness of the Government
does not appear to have been sustained by its officers
throughout the empire. The committee still cherish tl:e
hope that Turkey will yet become a highly valuable ane
prolific source of cotton supply. Similar disappointment
has also been experienced with respect to Egypt. 'l7hl
crop of late has not been equal to that formerly produced,
and the association, by representations to his Higlinesi
the Viceroy when in England, by sending out fresh sup
plies of Sea Island cotton-seed, and in other ways, hal
endeavoured to promote an improvement."

The North German Lloyd Company are having
three new steamers built, to be called the Rhein, Main.
and Donau, to carry on the mail communication betweei
Bremen, Southampton, and New York.

Election addresses are pouring in on all sides, and
if there is little variety in them, at any rate we can
compare the different styles and various views of
the rival candidates. Mr. HOWARD RUSSELL and
Mr. FREAKE have come forward for the borough of
Chelsea, in compliance with a requisition. Mr.
RUSSELL declares his willingness to remedy any
defect that may be found to exist in the present
system in Ireland, without, however, going so far
as to disestablish the Irish Church altogether. At
the same time, he declares himself to be an ardent
friend of civil and religious liberty, and announces
his political tenets to be those of a Conservative
on " independent Liberal principles." Her MA-
JESTY'S Government, who have " had the courage
to confer the franchise on those whom their oppo-
nents would not trust, " d!s2rve, he reasonably
says, the gratitude and coafidence of the c)mitry,
and he will support them against a combination
of disappointed parties, who are only united in
their desire for (dice." In proceeding to enumerate
the doings of her MAJESTY'S Ministers,:he men-
tioned the foreign policy they have 5) ably fol-
lowed, the defences of the country they have put
upon a proper footing, and the greatly improved
state of Ireland, which was handed to them with
its prisons full, and the powers of the Suspension
Act in full force. "In lieu of the present Govern-
ment I see only a Coalition, such as England does
not love." Mr. FREAKE has not taken an active
part in politics, but professes his willingness to
serve the best interests of the country whenever he
can most effectually do so, and his views on various
questions seem to be mud ones. Education he
highly prizes, but even its blessings ate not, he
wisely declares, to be brought about by a cmnpul-
sory mode of procedure. The improvement of
the dwellings of the poor is a subject that earn-
estly calls for the attention of the Legislature,
and it is satisfactory to find it alluded to in an
address to a new constituency. Labour and capital
are at present too often unfortunately found to be
antagonistic when they should be united on friendly
terms, each for the interest and advancement of
the other, and to adjast these difficulties is another
task for the new Parliament. lii fact the time
taken up by the discussion of Reform, and the
many false starts made in the venture, necessarily
prevented all these important matters being con-
sidered before, hut no more delays must be allowed
to occur, or the disappointment of the community
will be great, mingled, we may add, with some
feelings of indignation.
Mr. CUBITT, in his address to the electors of
West Surrey, refers to the general success which
has distinguished the efforts of the Government
in contradistinction to the efforts of their
predecessors. In the midst of " immense difficul-
ties" they have passed a Reform Bill of a most
liberal tendency and a most comprehensive charac-
ter, their foreign policy has been one of a very con-
ciliatory nature, while it kept intact the honour of
the country. The Abyssinian war has been a com-
plete vindication of our power and supremacy in
distant lands; and nearer at band a menacing con-
spiracy of some danger has been subdued success-
fully. Like many others, Mr. Cuerrr is an advo-
cate for changes to occur in the revenues of the
Irish Church when the Report of the Commission
has been considered, without consenting to complete
disestablisbment.

Some of the members of the St. Anne s Electoral
Association are lodgers, and. have formed them-
selves into a baud of reformers on this question.
They have addressed the members for Westminster
on the matter, declaring that they feel themselves
greatly aggrieved " by the cc 'tinned existence of a
law by which, although \ j pay all claims of rent
due to the person with whom we contract for our
lodgi❑gv, we are still liable to have our
household goods seized for any defalca-
tion on his part." To this appeal Mr.
JOHN STUART MILL has returned a satisfactory
answer. He entirely agrees with the association
in condemning the existing law, and declares that
it is discreditable to Parliament that it should have
been retained iu force so long. He recommends
that petitions numerously signed should be pre-
pared for presentation to the new Parliament on the
subject, since " the grievances which are most peti-
tioned against are likely to be soonest redressed."

This is not the first time which the mater has
been discussed this year. Before the close of the
Session it was brought forward in the Upper House,
and the manifest unfairness of thus compelling
one man to pay another's debts was strongly
dwelt upon. The horror with which the
Law Lords regard any innovations on the
law seemed, however, to defeat the praiseworthy
purpose of the agitators of the question, and the
law stands as it was ; so that, in Mr. MILL'S words,
"The goods of a lodger who has paid his rent to
his immediate landlord may be seized to meet the
claims of the head landlord." There is, however,
a chance for the lodger. The coming election will
place him in a position of importance which he has
never occupied before, and since he has become an
elector he may chance to find that his grievances
will be listened to with respect. It shows how in-
efficiently the large class of permanent and respec-
table lodgers have been hitherto represented in
Parliament that such an anomaly should have been
so long overlooked.
The high rents of London, which certainly show
no signs of growing less, naturally drive a large
number even of stationary and settled persons into
lodgings. By taking part of a house which they
furnish themselves they can form a little home, with
some drawbacks indeed, but without the heavy bur-
dens which oppress the householder, and from which
he cannot lightly escape. It is not fair or reason-
able to make them responsible for a double rent,
both to the occupier and to the owner of the house.
It is surely guarantee enough for the landlord if he
may seize the property of his own immediate tenant,
and the temporary occupiers who made no agree-
ment with him should be exempt. As we have said,
now that the lodger has risen into political impor-
tance, this grievance has some chance of being re-
dressed, and redressed we hope it will be with very
little delay after the opening of the now Parlia-
ment.

The Royal Mail steamship Atrato is now in
dock at this port. The transfer of her mails and
cargo to the Tasmanian will be completed during
the night. The Tasmanian is appointed to sail at
5 o'clock to-morrow morning.

e mail steamer Racahine has_becn detained at
Panama until the arrival out of the Tasmanian with
the New Zealand mails, passengers, and cargo.

The Atrato's intermediate is quite gone, and her
eccentric shaft is broken in two.

Sir 11. L. BULIVER has been busy at Tamworth,
and on Tuesday addressed the electors of Milne-
cote in a spirited speech. He referred at some
length to the working classes, an I said
he had always regarded them as a tn)st important
element in the constitution of the country. With-
out being a flaterer, and assuming that this class
has all the virtues, Slr lIENnv declared it was mast
useful ; the middle class is too individualised and
too busy to breathe forth the great breath which
gives life and vigour to the State. " It was wi h
the democracy of England in one hand that Lord
CHATHAM smote the House of BOURBON with the
other. The working class has its duty to perform
to itse:f, however, if it would faithfully render just
service unto the community, and if the heart of the
commonwealth, it should at the same time remem.
ber that a good heart is of more value when it is
accompanied by a goad heal." Sir 11. BULWER
showed himself a good judge and a real friend
to the working classes when he said that,
in order to take their just place, they should acquire

The neighbourhood of the Ministry of Finance,
Rue de Rivoli, presents, since the opening of the
subscription for the loan, a moat animated and
curious scene. Scarcely are the proceedings for
the day closed, between three and four in the
afternoon, when in place of the deep line of
people who withdraw, other crowds arrive to form
a queue for the next day, so that, if the police
officers did not cause them to move on, the line
of human beings would not be discontinued. As
soon, however, as night arrives, the first-comers
instal themselves, and in a short time the arcades
of the Rue de Rivoli-are filled with persons of
both sexes and every condition, who there pass
the night awaiting the op6ing of the offices in the
morning. To remain seated or in a reclining
position may be conceived, but to remain the en-
tire night up-standing surpasses imagination.
Some, it is true, take the precaution of bringing
folding seats, but the pressure of the crowd, in-
creasing every moment, scarcely gives an oppor-
tunity of using them. Fortunately, in conse-
quence of the present great heat, the short
duration and coolness of the nights render the
position of these persons somewhat supportable.
The death is announced of Mr. John Douglas
Cook, the editor, from its commencement, of the
Saturday Review. Mr. Cook, who had long been
in a declining state of health, died on Monday
night at his chambers at the Albany. Mr. Cook
was editor of the Morning Chronicle during the
time that journal was the organ of the Peelites.
A number of men charged with taking part in
the Murphy riots at Dukinfield were tried at Ches-
ter Assizes on Tuesday and acquitted.
LIBERTY OF THE PRESS IN FRANCE.—La I'atrie
says that about 1 a.m. on Tuesday morning a band of about
fifty persons, followed by a mob of five or six hundred
more, traversed the Boulevard St. Michel, shouting " Long
life to Rochefort!" "Long life to the Lanterne !" "Down
with Stanair!" "Hang spies up to the nearest lamp-post !"
The police arrested nine of the persons princip Illy C3:l-
- who und.!rwont an examination by the Commis-
sary of the Quartier do la Sorbonne, and have been C3:11-
111itted to the depot of the Prefecture of Polio,.
THE INDIAN TEADE.—The value of our exports
to British India shows a sensible progress this year, h tv-
lug been £8,828,812 in the five months ending May 31, as
compared with £7,917,481 in the corresponding period of
1867, and £7,271,102 in the corresponding period of 1866.
Each Presidency has contributed to the increase observable
this year ; Bombay and Soindo having taken our goods to
the value of £2,366,591 to May 31, as compared with
£1,861,007 in the corresponding period of 1867 ; Madras,
£638,837, against £631,629 ; and Bengal and Pegu,
£5,825,411, against 1'5,421,845.

consequence of the Reduction in Duty, Ilornimads Pure
Teas are sold Bd. per pound Cheaper. 2,500 Authorised

Among the excitements of Parliamentary ad-
dresses and local battles in the registration courts,
it is well that the proceedings of_our men of science
should not be altogether overlooked. Just nt►w the
aramologists are very busy down at Cire 'wes-
ter, and the investigations which they 7Lre pursving
are full of interest. The asspciation of 'vhich thtiy
form part dates from a quarter of a zentury back,
when a travelling arebae)logical sc ciety held its '
inaugural meeting at Canterbury. Doctors dis-
agree, as we all know, and alas for tbd wisdom
of the world, so do savants of all kind:. ; and ac-
cordingly at this very opening a disagrei Anent took
place, and the next year beheld two cons resses in-
stead of one. With this dispute, however_ . we have
nothing to do further than that the British. Arclate3-
