Mr.. T. seems 10 think India will CONT

land will cease TO derive great deal Of
benefit from its possession; and that large
tracts of the country may by and by re-
vert back to the undisturbed possession OF
the iackals and hyenas.
In this view, he may overdraw the mic.
tnre yet the reflection forces itself upon
the mind--what is to become Of the pow.
er of England, in the event of the fall Of
lndal The bare possibility of such an
event cannot fail to ill the government and
people with apprehension for the future.
One thing OF great Importance to US has
become clearly manifesl-and that is, with
the possession of Texas, we hold the only
cotton lands in he whole universe, that
are worth "lhe snap of a mans finger"
There Is no section Of the globe which
can "begin" to compete with US in The

We have fast hold upon the cotton mar
kets of the world; and We shall hold them
during future time, MS far as can be seen
% the contrary; and through our cotton
bales we can, TO great extent, control the
iestlnes of Europe, make peace or war,
and otherwise affect the political economy
an relations of the world!

the United Siates-ever foes 10 their

respect held out by visionary people, five |
ears ago, that India was about to rival
