The Cincinnati Equirer thus happily ''hits of the
rank hypocrisy Of the Chief Magistrate Of Ohio, who,
while his miserable African constituents CONCEAL to
death in their frozen beds from the "fuel famine is
urging the legislature to make appropriation from
the treasury in aid of BLEEDING Kansas" The
Equirer says:
"Sterne tells of sentimental philanthropist, who
left his g. anmother to die of want, and was found
weeping over dying ass in the road. Governor
Chase is greatly exercised by the distress of the
Free State people Of Kansas and proposes that Ohio
shall make appropriation for their relief while he
has not word for the suffering poor Of Cincinnati,
during the present cold weather. when Goals is forty
cents a bushel and wood $12 cord and when there
Black Republicans in the city who have been
enticed from comfortable homes in the South by the
false promises Of Ambolition demagogues whose suf-
ferngs far surpass those of the Free State patriots
of Kansas"

The Times asks, "why cannot we make greater
cultivation Of free-grown cottons" These efforts
haue been made, and have resulted in comparative
failure In 1857, there were imported into Great
Britain twenty-five millions of pounds, from the
British West Indies, the French and Spanish Colo
MES, the Dutch and Portuguese Colonies East India
and Turkey-but none from the United States; and
ia 1855, the total quantity imported was within q
fraction OF nine hundred millions of pounds, of
which about seven hundred millions were from the
United States. In the first place, the Southern
States have the climate and the soil best suited to
cotton and in the second place, they have the right
sort Of labor-for it is idle to talk of producing cot
ton and sugar in large quantities by "ee lubor."-
1t cannot be done. The decay and ruin, and the to-
tai loss of the sugar interest, which have followed
emancipation in Jamaica, furnish abundant proof of
this. Great Britain and feels this; and hence
her efforts to re-establish slave labor, far prac
ticable in her Colonies, by importing Chinese labor
ers, under sort of apprenticeship, which really, az
ter all, amounts to slavery.
The Times says, we know that the thread of
our national destiny is cotton" "True, oh King!"
it IS cotton, and Cotton is King" This thread
of destiny also upho!ds the Northern States of this
Union. Cut it, and they go down at once into bank
ruptcy and ruin. They live by and on the South.
They do nearly all our carrying trade-they receive
our cotton free of tariff taxes and they work it up
and sell it to in new shapes; they export it, and
in return import goods, upon which we pay tariff
of thirty per cent mainly for their benefit for their
own manufacturers of cotton thereby protected
and the lions share" Of these tarifftaxes is ex-
pended among them. 1t is thus that The! North
grows rich, and forgetu of the hand that sustains
her, assas the Constitution, and through that tho
| Southern people The South, if driven to the wall,
can protect herself She possesses all the elements
of strength aid great'.ess. Let her maintain her
rights without regard to party; and if she cannot
have justice under the financial operations of the
federal government, let her at least demand all her
Constitutional rights, and solen!nly swear that no
geographical, fanatical party shall ever hold sway
| over her.

tent Of about fifths of the material of that
manufacture in the existing arrangements for main
tanning the cotton culture of the United States"
These conclusions are based upon the following ::
l. That cotton must be grown almost entirely out
OF Europe and manufactured chiefly in Europe, and
In Europe chiefly in Great Britain.
2. That cotton has hitherto been grown, and. as
lar as yet appears must continue to be, chiefly by
Stare MJor.
.. That for the last fifty years Great Britain, seek
ing her supply of cotton all the earth, with
Preference during great part of that period for the
produce of free labor, has yet received during the
whole of that period, and continues to receive, all
the cotton she imports OF the better qualities, and
by tar the greater part of all she imports in bulk
as well as in value, from countries in which it is
grown by slave labor.
4. That cotton is grown in the United States ex-
cusvely by slave labor.
o: mat two-thirds at least of the slave population
OF the United States is employed in raising cotton
for expectation.
.. lhat OF the cotton thus raised for expectation
about two-thirds in quantity, and more than two.
thirds in value, is raised expressly for the British
Market and is regularly imported into and manufac
turcd in the United Kingdom.
7. That of the entire quantity Of cotton imnort.
ed into and manufactured in the United Kingdom,
nearly four-ifths in quantity and much more than
iourfifths in value is, on average of years, Oh.
tanned from the United States"
Facts like the foregoing must be and are appreci-
ated by all sensible Eng!ishmen. We see it in the
extract we have given from the Times
The cotton crop of the United States, in 1886,
was ,422, 900 bales-in 1856, s,527, 900 bales In
1865, the dealers and manufacturers of Great Brit
ain imported seuentysecen per cent of all their cot
ton from the United States. - -----

fer upon him the highly-honorablc and high
ly-important duty Of presiding over the af-
fairs Of the embryo STATE Of Washington.
No better democrat lives than Col. McMul-

but an Illustration of the sonndness of his
principles, and practicle devotion to the

miners are doing well, and that prepara-

He also makes mention of new discoveries
