Riches of the West.

The Chicago Tribune thus discourses
on the riches of the West:
The West is sharing in the activity
manifest in the manufacturing Districts
The surplus of farm products, essential to
sustain large army, in the hands of pro.
ducers at the commencement of the nou.
bles WAS immence. The wheat crop Of
the present year. though not so large as
heretofore, and in some sections seriously
injured by the late rains, will yield fair
amount for shipment, and the world can
draw on the West for any amount Of corn
without any fear Of having the draft dis
honored. Beef, pork and prOxisicn. a
full supply, Our ar les will consume
most OF the produce from the West which
in former years has gone to Southern
market.
In addition to what the Eastern States
and the grand army will require fthe
products of the West. it is now certain
that both England and France will be
large purchasers Of our cereals. Prices
here, stimulated by this foreign demand,
would be satisfactory and highly remu
nerAtive, we're it not for the enormous
freights, caused BY scarcity of vessels
and the clogging Of railways by the i'm
mense shipments that have been pressing
on to the seaboard But ike all other
evils Of this class, 10y another season il
will have cured itself, and The charges fol
freight will no longer consume nearly al
the profits of the farmers.
So far. therefore, as the present pros
poets will warrant an opinion, the West
can oheerfully await the progress of cur
rent events. She has an abundance o
food, and our own country and Europe arr
likely to require all she can spare. Tht
money for our surplus is rapidly placing
tie West in an independent position, ant
with the economy and the energy prac
ticed by our people for the past few years
they have every reason TO hope for sub
stantal prosperity.

LIVERPOOL, Nov, c7,--The most intense
excitement exists here to-day, under the
intelligence of the taking OF the Southern
Commissioners. Mason and Slidell, from
the British mail steamer Trent.
An indignation meeting was promptly
held and resolutions were carried by ac-
clamation denouncing the insult and call.
ing upon the Government! to maintain the
dignity of the flag.
Some prominen. merchant spoke against
precipitste action. and said the matter had
better be LEFT 10 the Government. The
feeling of indignation. however. was gen
eral.
Tie ship Helen from Charleston arriv.
ed here 10 day with cargo of rosin and
turpentiDe. The Hausa brings the Lon.
don Times Of The 28lb, which contains
the account Of the meeting in Liverpool.

change: Outrage on the British Flag"
Southern Commissioners forcibly remov-
ed from British mail steamer; a public
meeting will be held in tie Cotton Sales
Room at 3 o'clo9k." The room was
crowded 10 excess. The Chair was oc.
cuPied by James Spense, who read the
following resolution:
ReSoIsed, That this meeting having
heard with indignation that an American
Federal ship Of war has forcibly taken
from a British mail steamer, certain pas
sengers reacably travelling under the
shelter Of our flag. from one neutral port
to another. do earnestly call Upon the
Government TO assert the dignity Of the
British flag, by requiring prompt repafa-
tion for this outrage.
This resolution was read with great en-
thusiasm. Tie resolution was advocated
By the Chairman, who considered he was
expressing the feeling of the people when
he said it was the duty Of the people 10
press on the Government the imperative
necessity of vindicain, the honor aud
dignity Of the British same and flag.
! Mr. John Camp ell considered there
was reason TO doubt whether the facts re.
lated and acted upon by this meeting we're
in reality breach Of international law.
and referred TO opinions of law officers of
the Crown as being in some measure in
cIned 10 show thar such a step as that
taken with resp'c: to The Southern Com
missioners was justifabIe under the ex-
isting state Of inlernationa! law, and urg-
ed the proPrley of postponing the con-
sideration Of tie subject ill tomorrow.
Mr. Tow sustained Mr.. Compbells
views.
! The Chairman suggested that, to meet
the objection Of Mr.. Campbell. to strike
out the words "by requiring prompt rep.
ara'iOn for this outrage" and thus amen
:. ded, the resolution passed almost uDaui.
mously.
