DISTRESS IN ENGLAND ANTICIFATED.-We
take the 70 lowing from the report made to the
Philadelphia ledger by q person who has Just
visited the localities in England, mentioned
below:
! Regarding cotton, Notwithstanding the press
( makes light Of il, gloomy foTebOdings trouble
the public mind. From actual knowledge Just

/ Of Lancashire, Manchester, Preston, Black

/ information is gained Every workman and
every msnUfac uTsr tells the same sad story.
! The distress is anticipated. i is felt now in
/ short work; but 10 August irs severity will be-
gin 10 be felt in earnest, and winter is dreaded
/ Ike q nightmare. Among other branches of
/ industry affected by the American troubles, we
found nearly all he vast pOtterics Of S. ford
shire closed, and the working people, Of whom
vast numbers are femsles-gaJnered in clus-
ters, and with beating hearts, speaking Of the
coming storm.
bFFsrRs IN WESTERN FIRGIEIA.-It is not
improper 70 STATE, since the fac has been ac-
cnmp.ished. that The supplies Of our forces in
Western Virginia, with all necdful military
sfoyas have now been fully accomplished
through the qusrtermas. eT'5 department here.
/ The last shipment was made on Iuesd@y. Oar
army in tie West IS now iuiiy pFoVl-iOhed ana
eouiDnsd FOR forward and decisive movements.
A proclamation Of Gen. RoEsncranz, ct the
20.h islant, GATED at ClsTksbuTg, at bis head
quarters, invites the aid ofsthe press TO prevent
/ our forces from leareing through 1t the post
I tiop, strength and movements OF the troops un-
der Qis command. Our forces, however, are
thoroughly well advised OF all these particu-
lars. We leaEa positively that a few days ago
! the pickets Of the opposing armies were IN
/ sight Of each other. We may expect news of
! an action or caDtul7tion at any moment
