Since last wrote have learned several things which
convince me more fully than before that there is not
the slightest danger that the English government will
deyate from the stctcst line Of neutrality in regard to
the in America The government Of Je Davis may do
what it plcases, and exrend much money It can
command-whieh, do believe will be very great in
subsdizo and corrupt certain presses in Paris
and London, bu, it will not be able induce the British
government attempt to break through the blockade Of
the Southern ports II Is but day two ago that
had conversation with member of the House OF Gem
MONS who is intimately acquainted with Lord Palmcrson
and Lord John Russell Tor Earl Rtsse he Is now be-
ginning to be called) this subject and assure vou
that he secuted the idea that the British has
any thought d interfering in affairs The same view
Of the matter taken by an English nobleman with
whom had the honor to spend last Monday night He
assured me not only that the government has no such
purpose but also that the nation would not in his
permit it 10 make the attempt, if disposed to do So
struck with the fact that there is so geaeri dis
position among intelligent Eugshmcn to believe that the
time has TO to depend any country FOR
cotton They arc, therefore, disposed 70 consider tho
present councture 10 be emncnty favorable for saeur
ing the cultivation Of cotton Tarkey--especaIiv IN
Asia Minor and Syrian Africa, in India in Queensland
(the most northern organized province in Ausralia) in
jamaica and any all Other rslrs OF The pIobo where
this important staple be cultivated They wisely he
Aeve that Is not prudent to dcpgnd SO much u,n any
one country whatever for an article OF manufacture an,
commerce which now so intimately connected with tho
prosperity and welfare u many millions OF The Eng
lsh people, TO nothing Of other nations They adm,
that the hrst years deprivatioa n American cotton viii
much loss and suffering but they arc sure that IL
will be succeeded by more permanent prosperity The
nearly seven yoarsirom 1926 10 lshas proved 10 be
great benefit t. the people of that ani by teaching
them not to depend so completely species Of food
when other species could wen be cultivated Most Ger
tanly this view d the subject Is correct one.
But what folly has led the people Of the Southern
with the North, which if should kt or eight years
two three, may greatly, not fatally IN.
tcrere with their fetue prosperity And however the
war may end-aspeciay II IL continue two or three
years-it must eiiectually strike blow \. cotton sn
premacy. And what fundamental mistake they have
committed in aiming TO found republic or any other
government upon cotton as ts great staple Of trade with
other nations. They to think that all other nations
may be made 20 depend upon their great staple. II would
be well for them TO t ak that they may too be made to
feel that they may be ruined by their s1vish dependence
upon other nattore II rs certain That these wise ana
enlarged views u the subject are every day ginning
