Liverpool to the 9th, brought by the packet ship
Napoleon, Captain Smith, which vessel sailed ON

England, France, and Spain is OF hirh interest
particularly from the former
ENGLAND.
That crisis. which We have already expressed

hardly produce tho effect intended, for tho old

ministers would be Obliged tn resort to continued

On Introducing the Bulge, in tho House of Com
mons,-thc progress OF which rs we have already
observed has been daaSed-the Chancellor Of the
Exehequcr drew a Tutoring picture of the present
state of the situation of tim British Empire. Va
extract from his speech on this occasion onl, such
parts as particularly affect our interests here. In
regard to the consumption of Cotton no said
" In 1898, according 10 the returns the con
sumption of cotton wool was - 100000 lbs. In
1881 there was an increase Of consumption, the
amount being 297 900, 900 lbs, and up 10 the 9Th
Of April, 1888, the consumption mad risen to
320, 2l0, 900 lbs lie believed tina, to those who
understood the state OF manufactures in England
he need not say word as 10 what might be expect

they considered the statement lac had LAID before
them, would not deem him over slngulna in con-

would be great is thai of the present. (llear,
hear.) The present state of manufacturing indus
Try WAS, he considered, sufficiently 1oulishinp to
warrant this calculation the manufactured pro-
dncc was uudcniably increasing, and the ONLY
question was, did lac not nndcrratr instead of over
reach his calculation Of a consumption oi32o 2lO-
900 lbs. lie would, however, instead oi dong so
take il upon the average OF the last three years,
which would make il BIC, 100000 lbs"
