The Desrl.utlon In England

OF about four hundred aud fifty thousand
hands employed In Lancashire, Yorkshire and
Cheshire, England, more than one-hslf are
wholly out of employment, or working on short
time The consequence is an enormous dimin-
utiou in the earnings of cotton spinners now
compared with the business done before the
American War-said to approximate three
quarters Of million of dollars per week,
though the reduction Of earnings in other en-
ployments, consequent upon this prostratiOn Of
manufactures, probably doubles the amount.
In the single town of Manchester, at last &C.
counts, there were more than ten thousand FIVE
hundred hands destitute of the means Of OBJ
tanning a livelihood, and the number was in
creasing at rapid rate.
While measures are everywhere on foot to
secure subscriptions to relieve the present deS-
tltution, the most urgent efforts are making to
encourage the growth Of cotton 10 India.
