The London correspondent Of the National
Intcigencer, under date 9Th inst, furnishes TINT
paper with table, which had first be, II publish
ed at Liverpool, showing the impnriations of cot
ton into the United Kingdom. during ench OF tho
last sixteen years, aud the sources from which it
was Obtained. The writer adds:
"Ihis tebo di~closcs remarkable facts in ma.
ny ways. Ono Is, that. while the United States
supply about four hfths OF the entire oonsump
ton of England. the reminder is derived from
various souiers. all Of them increasing. with tho
exception OF the West Indies, which, in spite of
all the expectations entertained, furnished last
year less ihau one third Of the cotton supplied
from that soLrco in ISL. Another fact is, That
the total supply of cotton has more than doubled
in sixteen years, and that the proportion derived
from the United States has also more than doub.
led. Again: of the increase since 1911, amour
ting 10 53j, Sol 900 pounds, no less thnn l2l,.
100000 pounds are oi American growth. The
imports from Brazil have also increased more
than thirty per cent From the Mediterranean.
chiefly from Egypt, the imports OF i-3b are three
and half times greater than those al ISL, and
from India they have nearly doubled. From all
other coun,riesl although tuctuuting from year
to year. the imports have. on the whole period,
been nearly stationary. Tho success in Egypt
naturally suggests thut the alleged successful
experiments in Algeria may also bn well founded
The statements of DR.. Livingston respecting the
capabilities of the interior of Africa, have exct-
ed much attention.
The proceedings of public meeting on the
subject of cotton cultivation. which was lately
held at George Town, in tho colony of British
Guiana, have excited much interest aud atten.
ton. These proceedings show the great capa-
bili,ies of that fine province. aud also that its
propretors are full OF enterprise and resolution
More than one of the speeches reported, repre-
sent that the colony could produce by free labor
three hundred thousand hogsheads OF sugar, and
as many bales of cotton per annuin. The revival
of cotton cultivation is also exciting great deai
of attention in Demerara Nothing but labor is
snd to be wanting to enable both that colony and
Jamaica to produce the finest cotton in album
dance. A Manchester paper states that, although
the supply of the raw material last year was
greater by twelve per C, MT. than in any former
year whatever, the price is nevertheless twenty
five per cent. higher than il was year ago, the
advance being lad. per pound-an increase
which is equivalent to an increased payment up
the actual consumption of last year of Co
100000 Our conviction Of the importance of
this subject to both sides of the Atlantic, induces
us thus to throw together every scrap of what
is considered authentic information we can find
in relation to it."

Tho manufacture Of sewing Machines ia be-
coming an important branch of industry. The
New York Tribune states that of the $50 machines
that have been patented. probably not half II
dozenhlye any merit, but the few that have
merit are selling in a constantly aecelera-
ting ratio. A single thrifty house engaged
IN the manufacture of hooped Skirts, has hun
dred and Seventy five sewing machines constant
ly at work. and is adding to the number. There
are Scamstrrs.es in New York city who first
borrowed the money To buy one. and now own
two or three, hlin. other seamstresses to work
those for which their own hands do not suffice.
For sewing leather or other work too heavy for
delicate female fingers some OF them are une-
quaed. Tho Tribune says it may be extravagant
to estimate that half the sewiny in New York
city is at present done By machines. but thinks
the time Is rapidly approaching when at least
three fourths will be, A single inventor. who
has become two well off to manufacture machines
Is receivlng from various manufactures at the

notwithstanding the general shout Of dsrisioh
with which the proposition of our Gi.zsrd footed
Governor 10 lay u tax on oysters, has been II ct
We observe That paper published at Wythe-
Vile warmly advocates it. According to our
Wytheville contemporary. taking his cue from
some Of the innumerable letters which Gizzard
has written on the subieot) the State If Virginia
has. in her oyster beds. n fruitful aud inexhaust-
ible source Of revenue.
OF oil the wild. and visionary, and impractical
BILE schemes ye, preached for the raising of rev.
enuc, this oyster fundum is, by long odds. the
widest the most visionary and the most imprac-
,oable. Surprising tia, ii could be executed. i,
would yet operate such gross injustice to the
citizens interested in the oyster trade, that the
sense ofjnstoe of every man must repel the sug
gesiion at once
The oysters of the Virginia waters are not
caught by the citizens of other States. They
taken by none others than Nirginians and
sold by them to whoever may offer purehn
ser. Whether the tax were levied upon the
buyer or seller, it would necessarily come out of
the pocket of the seller If the buyer hal TO
pay the tax. he would of course cain corre-
spending reduction in the original cost.
Those farms in lower Virginia, from the wat-
ers Of which oysters are taken, are held and sold
AT n considerably higher price than ether furns
not enjoying this advantage. The taking of
oysters ism profitable pur,uit-more particularly
= it is mainly carried on at that season of the
year when there is no work for the n"Erocs in
the fields. When man buys n farm from which
he may engage in this pursuit, he not only phys
for this privilege in the original cnsi-bn, he al.
so pays an annual tar for it, His land being
assessed higher. by reason Of greater value. il
will he observed that he pays mn annual
tribute To the Treasury for this very privilege.
Noiwithstond ng which, our illustrou4 Governor
would impose an nddilionaltax upon him, which
would sweep AWAY his entire profit
The law could never be executed. if il were
passed. 1t would he wholly impraoticabc. If
Gov. Wise has not discovered this, fnom his long
residence in The oyster region, it only proves
hin to have been unnbservant of what must have
occurred to every man OF common sense around
him.
We have snil thus much ON subject which
is really deserving of nothing bat rdcue. be.
cause our Wytheville ootemporary seem, to be
positively serious in his advocacy of this absurd
proposition.
