We lately gave an account, from authentick
documents, Of the woolen manufactures car
ried on in GreatlBritain. From the same
source we have ascertained that about
240, coo hands, or persons, chiefly children,
are employed in the spnning ofcotton thread.
These manufacture as much thread Nv the
power Of water or steam, and the application
Of the new improved machinery a. could have
been done BY g8 millions eight hundred
thousand persons By the finger only. Com
paratiyely there are but few consumers of
this immense production in Great Britain.
II is taken by about 100 millions. Russians,
Poles, Germans, and others, in thread, and by
about $50 millions of the inhabitants of
North and South America, Asia, &C besides
home use, and the oonsumptions of the colo
nies in every quarter Calculations have been
made, BY which IL appears that the improved
power Of machinery IN Great-Britain alone,
has in the last forty years increased to such
point, that il now executes or produces a.
much Of formed or fashioned material.as could
have been done formerly ~ mere manual

Who reads an american Bool: "a cor
respondent has enclosed 70 Is the monthly
catalogue Of American books, for sale bv Mr.
John Miller. al No. 69, Fleet-street London.
The booksellers in the British metropolis
make out their lists every month, and the one
before US is for July 1923. ItcomPrises torf1-
eight American works. besides notices Of 9th
ers preparing for publication. Some Of these
are veluminous and expensive, consisting Of
several volumes. We observe among the
number, works in botany, geology, mineralo-
gy, chemistry, medicine, astronomy, geOgrs-
ply, topography, voyages, travels, history, BIZ
ography, politics, poetry. novels, the transac-
tons of our philosophical societies, and seve-
raj Of our most distinguished periodical jour
nails.
From this brief enumeration or tie con-
tents Of the monthly catalogue Of single
bookseller, some idea may be formed OF the ex-
tent Of the market for American books ID the
three kingdoms Of Great Britain, and the
justice Of the sarcastic interrogatorv, quoted
above from the Edinburgh Review. II 10 one
reads an American book, Mr.. Miller and his
professional brethren are certainly very IN
wise, in mourning the expenses Of impovta-
tons, of republications, and of making ont
at stated periods But the truth
IS, books from this country are read with avid
ity, and the Transatlantic demand for them Is
every day increasing. Most Of the publica-
tons, which attract attention here. are re-
printed ADD vended ia Great Britain.
