A late report from Great Britain shows that the
consumption of Cotton for the current crop year
has diminished an average of $500 bales per week.
or. 27O 400 bales for the year, owing to the high
price and the commercial depression The stock at
Liverpool, May "a, was 4I2,0 600 bales sufficient to
supply the weekly consumption at the last average

In Mr.. RESELL letter to the London Times, writ
ten from Montgomery the ssh ult., thereis very
significant remark, taken in connection with the
Cotton question. He says
The blockade OF the Southern ports would not
occasion us any great Inconvenience at present, be-
cause the cotton loading season is over; bat if it
be enforced in October, there is prospect of very
serious and embarrassing questions arising refer
ence to the rights of neutrsls treaty obligations
with the United States Government, the trade and
commerce of England, and the law of blockade in
reference to the distinctions to be drawn between
measures of war and means of annoyance.

The Fourth Congressional District having in the
last election changed its Federal relations, it is
important to have a proper representation In
the Congress of the Southern Confederacy.
The writer would suggest the name of Col. S. S.
STANTON as suitable to represent the rights of
Tennessee and the Fourth Congressional District in
said Confederacy. In proof of which, reference
can be had to his Senatorial course and votes, and
recently to his manly, patriotic, prompt and efficient
services in said Mountain District. In Smith, the
ladies and little boys and girls all for STANTON.
