We notice statements in the last Eng
lish journals TO the effect that the quaint
ty of cotton 10 be imported into England
in 1864, from all parts of the world, is
estimated at the value of f88,000, 000
equivalent to S4I0OO0,O00. The ex-
ports of cotton manufactures from Eng
land, in the year 1868, NAV be taken at
the value of f49, OO0, 600 (S245 OOO, 0OO),
leaving 100000 (sI95 OO0O00), to
be paid in cash. The total value of al
British exports, in 1868, is estimated ct
ESQ, 600 000-so that the cotton manu-
features exported, in the same time, are
about one-third Of this vast total OF
course . portion of the thirty-nine mil
lions sterling will be paid in other exports
than cotton goods, but there will remain
= balance of nineteen or twenty millions
TO be paid in specie. No wonder that
in view Of this state Of things, the Bank
of England has advanced its rite Of dis
count TO 8 per cent, with expectation Of
putting it still higher. The drain of
gold from the Bank Of England is consi-
dered somewhat alarming, inasmuch a.
it is unusual at this season. The state
ment Of NJ. Fould, the French Minister
Of Finance, that there is . deficiency Of
100000 600 in the years revenue, that
loan Of S60.000,000 must be obtained,
and that NapOleOn's dealing with Mexi-
co, in 1868. has cost 100000, will
naturally affect the European, and espe-
cially the London and Paris mon y mar
kets ct this time.-I'kiI. Press.

rats Leavlng tie ship.

The London Times compares the con-
tinued emigration from Ireland to
"a horde of rats running along the
hswser from an empty ship TO full one
in the West India Docks. They have
scented the inviting cargo-they have
heard of country of plenty and high
wsges, with land and independence in the
future, and the haWser is the 95 note
that will take them safe over. No won
der they go. By every principle of pc
litical economy they ought to go"
1t strikes as this is rather severe upon
a country which is component member
of the British empire. But what follows
is quite as singing stroke in the face
of England. 1t says:
The Irish leave Ireland and 90 to Amo-
RIGA because they will not descend to
the condition of English labOrers. They
scOrn the slavery that in England is he
reditary and habitual. The English la
borer is born such, and such be lives and
dies. lie has no hope beyond. His
heaven Is Christmas dinner, or harvest
home once a year, with plenty of beef
and beer. The IrisEman had rather
starye on his half acre of potatoes, with
pigor two to pay the rent-and, falling
these, he goes where glory waits him,
hey the blue waters of the Atlantic,
where, if he lives and behaves himself,
be is certain of independence, and wher e
his children are almost sure to prosper.

The Evening Post estimates the num-
Der Of Southern Unionists now living in
New York city at twenty thousand,
which would give, at a fair calculation,
more than half of a million in the Free
States, exclusive Of those in the crmV.
Many of these will return TO Louisiana,
Arkansas, Tennessee, and Virgins, and,
with tue Northern emigration already be-
gun, will decide the destinies of these
States. The war, by the agitation and
distribution of population, will inevita-
bly, take the political power from the few
Shareholders and give it to the many
workingmen. The plan Of the President
for the restoration of the Southern States
will prove to be effsctual, because of
these great social changes in the cOndi-
ton and character of the people of the
South, and the destruction Of the tyrsn-
nv of the great plantation Oligarchs.-

But Il il nevertheless true, that some ten

NEeRo SoLDIEEs MURDERED.--It has
been charged that, negro soldiers cap
tured by the rebels in Arkansas and
Louisiana were, together with their white
officers, hrulally murdered. Tho follow
ing extract from an editorial in the Rich
m-nd Enquirer Of the 17th inst, cOrrobO-
rates the charge, ct least as tar as the
captured negroes are concerned:
Should they (the negro soldiers) be
sent TO the Geld, and be put in battle,
No'ie ,Cill Be taken P. isonerS-our troops I'M
derstand what to do in such cases. If
any negroes have been captured during
The war, as soldiers in the enemy's ranks,
we have not heard of them. We do not
think that such case has been reported.
The italics ere the EDquiter's. The
language used needs no Interpretation.
The government fthe United States x:il
be compelled 10 adopt the policy Of re-
taliatiOn. Nothing else will bring the
rebel barbarisns 70 their senses.

SALE OF THE New YORK EXPRESS An
order has been procured in court for the
sale of the New York Express newspaper
establishment. Upon the proceedings, 1T
was argued in favor of the application,
that the reasonable tone of the paTer,
under the Brooks management had in
jured the character and popularity of the
paper aad deprecated its value. In re-
ply, it was alleged Chat a iraitorous and
disloyal course was not unpopular in
New York, and therefore could not have
the effect imputed upon the prosperity
of the journal. The judge, however, or
dered the sale, but whether on the ground
that dislOyalty was at discount, or not,
does not appear in the proceedings.

OF days when in innocent mirth
When al seemed u Heaven, in our once happy

As we'd sit round tie old family hearth
Eut changes, sad changes, decreed, we must

To know that tho parted, We may meet
