Total supply ..........-........l

As to consumption and export we find that adding,
as we before stated 10000 bales to the brokers' es
mate, the total outgoings for the first thrty.four
weeks of the year reach l,56S,500 bales, and in the
the year will take 930,3S0 bales, reducing the stock
on the 3st December 1885, to 1856 $40 bales against
42SSl0 bales on the 31st December, 1866.
Now, rhe question arises, are we correct in sur
missing that the trade will require for the rest of the
year in proportion with the past. We believe that
are rather below than above the mark, for new
machinery is being weekly set in notion and the
trade in Manchester is so profitable at the present
time, that there be little doubt the consumption
going forward is as great at any time in the
history of the trade. To justify us also in this esti
mate, we may state, what is admitted on all hands,
that spnners hold very small stocks at the mills and
that, therefore, their supplies must be drawn from
this market We have thus far confined our atten-
ton to the supply and demand for this year out-We
will now look forward to the year 1857 and first,
let us ask as to the probability of the amount required
for our consumption. We have peace with all the
world: we have the world as our customers and if
we are favored with favorable gathering in our har
vest, we shall have Well-ied, busy population at
home to clothe The number Of new mills now
building is perhaps, larger than ever known-so
much so, that there is an estimate very generally
made that these new mills will require as much as
1000 bales of cotton per week.
This, added to our present large consumption, will
swell the requirements Of the trade of this country
to at least 900 bales per week. Surely, we may
ask, where is the supply to come from? Can we ex-
pect another crop in the United States OF $500 900!
We shall require 100000, and even that will leave
with smaller stock at the end of 1857 than at the
close of this year We may turn to India, and ask for
a supply from thence Brazil is giving us less rather
than an increase. Egypt may furnish us with few
bags more, but it is to the United States alone that
we can look for any hope of supply. Truly, con-
sumption has outstripped production, and machinery
is constructed faster than the raw material can be
produced to keep it in motion. No wonder the trade
are so anxious to hear of favorable reports of the cot
ton crop for they well know the effect of bad weather
insects, bad picking season. early frost, all OF
which the crop is endangered by. The trade require
an enormous quantity to keep prices moderate, and il
supplied We have seen that the large crop of this
year has failed to maintain the staple on par witt
last year. What will be the result if any accident tt
the growing crop?

THE GREAT REpUBIIc.-This monster clipper ship
returned to New York on the 10th inst, after an
absence Of nearly two years, during which time she
has been employed in the French Government trans
port service during the war in the Crmea Some idea
of her capacity, says the New York Evening Post
may be gathered from the fact that on one of her trips
from Marseilles to Kamiesch she carried 497 cavalry
horses, for whose accommodation the two, between
decks partitioned into stalls, besides over SOC
troops and the provisions and forage necessary for the
voyage. Onher last trip from Sebastopol she brought
to Marsees over 5000 infantry besides her own crew
and large corps of cooks, servants and walters
required for the commissay department. and this too
with her lower hold full of guns of great size, shells
baggage, and the necessary water and provisions.
nevery port she has visited, she has been thronged
with people of all classes, who have expressed theil
admiration of her enormous size and beauty.

Grand FILLMORE RaIIv,

From the Baton Rouge Gazette of Sunday morn
ing and from private sources, we learn that the
Union and Fillmore rally and barbecue had in West
Baton Rouge opposite the State Capital on Saturday
last, was an imposing and grand demonstration from
beginning to end, surprising the anticpations of the
most sanguine and filling the hearts of all lovers of
our common country with joy, hope and enthusiasm.
We regret that our limits absolutely preclude the
possibility of our giving the proceedings at length.
We are forced to be brief-very brief-unwelcomely
brief, so far as own wishes are concerned. May
hap we may be more fortunate in the future. Hun
dreds of bright and beautiful ladies lent the cheering
influence Of their presence to the occasion. The can.
non roaled, the music pealed inspirngly upon the
air. and the gladdest of enthusiasm pervaded multi
tude of thousands.
The venerable Louis Favrot was chosen President
assisted by the usual number of Vice Presidents and
Secretaries Then Judge E. Hestand, of New Or.
leans, was introduced to the audience He delivered
a very able and eloquent speech-a noble Union
speech--which was warmly applauded throughout.
He was followed by Mr.. Louis Duyignaud of this
city, who spoke in French. The Gazette speaks in
high terms of his effort. From our knowledge Of
Mr. DIS powers, we question not his address must
have produced q favorable effect upon those who
comprehend the glorious tongue in which he spoke
Major A. NJ Dunn, one of the finest speakers in the
State, followed and, at the conclusion of his re
marks, the vast assemblage dispersed in the finest
possible spirits. Mi.
The ball is rolling on gloriously. Let every good
citizens arm be stretched forth to add to its monen
tum. The motto of all should be: Union and Liberty
now and forever, one and inseparable."

The Cotton Trade.

LIVERPOOL, Tuesday Evening, August 26.-The
cotton trade, its condition at the present moment
and its future prospects, call for the serious attention
not only to those engaged in the trade but every i'll
dividual interested in the prosperity of this country
We say so advsedly for all will admit the magni tude
of the trade itself, and the widespread influence that
it exercises not only at home but in our commercial
relations with the whole world. The increase in it
has been so rapid that it is within the recollection of
many when the annual consumption of the raw mate
1al was mere trifle, nay, if we will only look back
to the year 1884, we find the consumption to have
been only about one-half of what it is now. We
may, therefore, be excused if we place before our
readers few statistics of the present stock and pro-
bable supply to meet the growing consumption. All
we desire is to render plain indsputabe statement
so that all may know as clear as figures can show,
what are the prospects of the trade Statistics are
sought after eagery-sOught after, and strange to
say rdicued-and stranger STILL followed in spite of
the rdicue-laughed at in public, yet in private
checked over most carefully and secretly acted upon
sneered at for the pure love of contradiction, yet
quietly guided and influenced by the solid truth that
there is no better guide at hand.
In the first place we find by the general brokers'
Price Current Of 22d August the total stock in Liver
pool was 735, 700 bales; but it is generally admitted
that at least 900 bales have been forwarded from
the quay direct into the country, and not included in
deduct this amount, and of course add it to est
mate of consumption. For the import to the close
OF the year we shall estimate the quantity at sea
10000 bales; to ship by LIST September of old crop
10000 bales; and of the new crop to arrive prior &c
3lst of December, 10000 bales: making total Of
$50 600 bales of American to receive to 3lst Deccm
ber And for other descriptions we shall take it al
the same as last year, which will approximate neal
enough for our purpose. Say:

NEW MATERIAL FOR PApER.--The Cleveland Plain
dealer says: The Planet brought down from Lake
Superior thousand pounds Of moss for Dr. Terby of
Detroit, who has been making experiments upon it in
the manufacture Of paper. The Doctor says that
moss makes beautiful white paper, without any
preparation Of the raw material for the common pa
per mills In all respects it is equal to linen rags,
and can be found in unlimited quantities on Isle Roy
ale and several other localities in the vicinity, at
very small comparative cost.
Too good news to be true, we fear. But, we will
wait, watch and hope. Itwould be great thing for
the publishing interests of the country if some cheap
and good substitute for rags could be discovered
The supply does not equal the demand, and, as natu
raj consequence the price Of paper has risen CORES
pondngly.
