warding of the manufacturing interests If
heiginm. 1t is a TACT well know n to all who
are engaged in commercial affairs, that the
whole Of Europe i! dependent upon England
Tor their supplies of Cotton, and this inc is
intended TO open direct trade with Europe
Tor the purpose Of making them independent
OF England in the Southern staple, Cotton.
The Government at the head of This
movement has had the good Judgment 10
see that Norfolk is most eIigibly situated as
port, and is in direct communication with
three Thousand miles o! railway which is
spread like net work over one OF the mes
fertile and productive regions of the whole
Union; this region is capable of supplying
the whole OF Belgium with whatever amuont
OF cotton she may want, hence the desire to
make this city the point OF connection. Mr..
Cocklebrock has taken rooms al the Ma
tional Hotel, and will confer with the Bel.

Bi the gurls, who air all in luv with yu.
They get up festivals in honor Of yure komin,
And riaik the countcrhorpers and feilets shell
out
Eity free before there gals, and sware when
they
Git home in thurd story bed-rumes, thinkin
loE
Haf e munths wages is buried tn smash.
But must stop solillerquising. Strawberry,
fure my victim. yure bully-just old peaches.
