ur- CoTToN SUPPLY AND DEMAND.-As the pros
an poets Of the cotton supply anddemand in Englan

Xty dorsinG the writer's views:
cen Without yenturing into the perilous domain 0
ess prediction we will briefly bring into juxtapositio
ons few facts bearing on the probable direction
ope least of the various elements of the cotton que
as. ton the great question, that is Of supply an
be price. First, as TO SIOCh me pTeSeuI SlUCh
ebt $50 900 bales, nearly double what was at IL
en close of 1853 and Of 1865 and considerably large
ree than it has been for long series of years b
for as the export large and the consumption IS i
ons creasing and the two together will considerable
10 exceed the anticipated supplies for the remaind
ght of the year we shall probably close 1866 with
by stock of $50 600 bales, which is ample but not e.
con cessiVe. We look for a continued home GemaL
laps at the rate of 40 600 bales per week, and tot
But export for the year of something over millo1
year 1t is already $4,000.
ears Secondly Our importatiOns for the will e
lebt coed our consumption and our exports combine
rs by about 200 900 bales: in other words, actu
supply is greater than our actual demand, al

nor points to fall in price.
Ina ina Thirdly. What are the future prospects? CO
the tanly, continuance of the present large hon
em demand, but scarcely any material increase if,
Ell it we believe, nearly all our factories are now u
ect- at work. Probably, also, continuance of t
tall demand for export and perhaps an augmentato
and if peace fairly settles down upon the continent
tate Europe. The consumption of cotton, therefor
cuse may be expected to increase rather than othe
heir wise. But how as regards the supply? This mt

ated the crop in the United States nothing can be p
in dicated with confidence. It may reach two milli0
is or two and half though considerable authoriti
mtg place it lower than either, but, even if it rea
are the latter figure, is there any reason to belle
the that we shall obtain much more than we ha
leg done this year. Scarcely.
