The steamer Bertrand reports that there great

Active preparations are sgsfn making by the Anti

persons who charged with crimes committed in the
northern part OF the county during the last disturbance

CONSUMPTION OF CoTToN.-Hon. ABBOTT Law
RENEE, in his third letter on the subject of the Ia
riff states interesting facts in reference to the
consumption of raw cotton in the United States.
Since 1915, period Of twenty-nine years, the
amount consumed has increased from 100000 to
lie, 100000 lbs.-more than sixteen-fold. During
the same period the increase of consumption in
Great Britain has been from ss,0O0,Ooo to $780,
900 Useless than seven-fod. We manufac-
ture more cotton than France, and quite much as
6O,0O0,O00 Germans. This great home market for
the staple Of the South has grown up under the In
fuence, and direct result of the protective sys-
tenn and the fact is one of the highest interest to
that section of the country whence the chief hos
tility to Protective Tariff comes.

The Paris correspondent Of the London Ne'os writes as
follows
ssI have stated to you that NJ GurzoT, in compromising
himself with the United States had deprived France OF the
possibility of being intermediate in the dispute Of the Ore
gon question between England and America. This opinion,
which expressed, has just been confirmed in remarkable
manner Mr.. KISe, the Minister Of the United States in
Paris has openly declared that but for the course adopted by
NJ GuIzor the Cabinet of Washington would tsef have
quesed France become the arbitrator Of question which
threatens the peace Of the world.

article on Of the late steps of the actual Gov

opinions that need be rapidly propagated have to

that the United States, in common with almost every
thing else, has its partisans in Mexico-partisans
who can print, like the rest of the world.

From this table it will be seen that the votes
thrown away by the Aboltionists have defeated an
election OF Governor by the people; but, never
theless, it is of qualification to know that
the Law and Order party have secured majority
of almost two to one in both branches of the Lee
gislature, on whom will now devolve the duty of
making choice, when they shall assemble in the

success Of all the candidates Of the Law and Order
