may safely be assumed that wherever the

On the same occasion, Mr.. Mcdowell, (sinct

COTTON.

Al Liverpool, on the fret II December. the
stock Of cotton WAS stated al 5s2 900 bslesj at
the close Of business. On he 18Th Of Deembsr,
q $4,000 bsles. Thus, 10 twelve days. tsefs
Wss nos only eedecreass Of st'ok, but On actual
Increase, although small Aud ell sppsaranoss
indicate, that with the large arrivals from
India, and the small consumption BY the manu-
facturers, Il will be many months before Eng
land will be out Of cotton.
The manufacturers are using but little cot.
ton. not because they cannot obtain the raw
material, but because the markets Of the world
have been overlooked with the manufactured
article. The London Erdminer, Of November
80, says:
j" A past production exceeding the demand
has left large stocks Of the msnufacture on
informed quarters, indeed, IL, that II there had
| been no interruption Of the supply "f tho
staple Of the Gulf States, the mill owners would
| equally have been Obliged TO take the o. Wse
| they are now pursuing"
It is rot at all the want Of cotton which has
governed the policy Of the English towards
this country. II is certainly not true, In point
Of fact, that they are likely to get cotton any
sooner, or more sbuudantly, BY espousing the
cause Of the Confederate States, and 1t is at
least doubtful II they would not prefer never
to receive another bale from America. II ha'
been their persistent policy, for twenty years
TO supply themselves from India, aud now .tha
success 10 that policy seems more probable
than ever. it Is most strange that they shoult
abandon II.
What controls England Is the question O
po,oer, not the question Of cotton. They wou't
favor The secession Of the Southern Stat's Il
they did not produce pound Of cotton. ant

Il said Of President Davis's message:
"Mr. Davis seems to imply that, by ceasi, 1
to grow cotton, the Southern States will brin(
ruin on all the interests'Of foreign countrei
dependent on that staple. On this point lot hin

AN ADEQUATE REVENUE.
The following is irom the New York Times
of Decemher 70:

"a suspension was inevitable, because the
flow Of money WAS all In one dire ctiOn--from the
cities 10 the country. A well.dsvised system
Of taxation would have corrected this. Had u
existed, II would, very probably, have left the
specie in the vaults Of the banks, In effect un.
disturbed. 30 far the expenses Of the war have
been almost solely met BY borrowing. The
ordinary revenues Of Government had fallen I'd
nearly iwo.thirds their usual amounts. The
tax bills passed ut the extra session Of Congress
we're not TO take effect within the current year.
These will soon cause return dow from the
extremes 10 the centres. To thess bills We pre-.
sumo Congress will Immediately add others
increasing at the same time the rates already
imposed, o. that the internal taxes will pro.
duce. say $50 900 900 or $500 900 900. The levy
store the exchanges Of the country to their
normal condition. and will. at the same time,
become the basis for the circulation Of Treasury
notes to an equal amount, and In which Gov.
srnment dues will be made payable. In this
way the whole strength Of tho country can b.
In the hands Of Government for It's present ne
oessities, while the adoption Of sound system
Of finance will give such q credit to its bonds as
will enable It to realize from the sale Of these
what cannot be raised by direct taxation, to
meet present emergency"
The financial writer's Of the New York city
press seem to agree that no revenue from tax.
alton, short Of two hundred millions, is ade.
quste 10 the necessities Of the country. We
can pay that amount Is we'll as the Eaglish
pay their taxes, and we must do it or do worse
Mere paper money schemes are delusivc, and
at any r ate, short lived. Treasury notes car
have no legitimate circulation, uulsss bsset
upon adequate taxes, and the immense dis
bursements Of The Government make IL nov
easier than ever to pay taxes.
