What the People Want.

No great public want can long remain un-
answered. When condition OF things has
become developed 80 that great public want
I, realized, either in theology, civil govern
ment, or physics, that very want or demand
is sure to create supply. The hour will
create the man, and the need the thing Wit
ness the sewing machine, the reaper, the tel
erraph. There are several abortions. Many
may run before they are sent, but ultimately
humanity will triumph, and the want be sup
piled. 80
1t cannot be that Medicine will long remain
what it has been-a mess of intricacles, OF
which they who know most know little.
while the confident pretendrr is sure to he a
knave. Nor will it be always a system 80
intricate aud obscure that only the priests of
the temple can speak its language or inter-
pref it's symbols; or an oracle so equivocal
that he who consuIts the priest fares as i'll or
worse than he abjures the temple altogether.

Cumberland and Cotton Spinning.

now costs 40 bales of cottoa out Of every
100, or say 40-100 export tax to get a
bale of cotton from Memphis to Liver
pool and sell it. This is drain, which
no production can long bear. The plan
ters feel it to be so. They are agitated
BY witnessing the annual loss expressed
in tho said 40-100 export tax. and are
turning in every direction for relief.
1t is therefore natural that the idea of
putting the American cotton crop into
thread or yarn should BIO favorably re-
cieved by the growers fthe great staple.
The market for this cotton thread is to
be found on the Continent of Europe in
Guiding Spain, France. Belgium, Hol-
land, Switzerland. Germany and Russia.
At present his staple industry is carri-
I'd on entirely by England. She receives
our raw cotton. puts it into thread and
se-exports it to the Continent of Europe
making enormous profits. The German
manufactures have to pay for the thread
