from India was any measure Of tho production
Of that mysterious country. Though It's export
In annual average had been only about 500, 0oe,
and much Of that 10 China, when the American
war made its sudden call for cotton. In 1S6l-'2,
India contributed more than 1000, ,00e bales
that season. There 10 no evidence that there
was any larger or more successful planting that
year than previously: only that price called 1t
out, and the stock left for homo use was by 80
much the less. Doubtless, In suooeediugs years,
cotton planting In India was increased, as else
whore, by the stimulus Of wonderfully remunera.
tive prices to the producers and forwardcrs.
1t 10, however. safe to assume that there has
always lat least in modern days. been latent
capacity In that country to throw upon the
market an extra, and, perhaps, unexpected, half
million Of bales Of cotton In any year, when the
price should offer sufficient induoementsj and an
equal capacity TO consume at home the whole
production. when at 50 low prices that II could
not bo exported to Europe or China. Since the
completion Of many hundred miles Of railways In
India, that power Of adding promptly to the
worlds supply Of cotton has been greatly In
creased.
It therefore becomes evident that low prices
for cotton must be anticipated for considera-
bic period, during which tho domestic produo.
tion should not be discouraged by the continued
imposition Of direct tar. But, with the relief
that will be Afforded BY the prompt removal Of
the existing tax, the Commissioner fully believes
that tho United States will speedily regain con-
troll Of the cotton market, and again supply By
far the larger portion Of tho total demand OF
Europe for consumption.

Congress To-day-Impeachment.

There were quite large gatherings last even
ing In the corridors Of our principal hotels, and
the main topic Of conversation, discussion, and
gossip was what will Congress do to-day with
the impeachment question:
The members Of tho Judiciary Committee are,
as . matter Of course, very reticent, and moth
ing can bo learned from that quarter. 1t Is
hardly worth while to speculate at this time as
to what the committee will report, or what will
be donei still II may not be amiss that We should
give our impression in respect to what Is to con-
stitute this anxiously looked for report. We
think that this is the complexion to which the
thing has come at last.
Mr.. WILLIAMS, Of Pennsylvanis, has written
report which, rs Il now stands, will receive the
sanction Of fvo Of the nine members constitut-
ing tho committee. It Is understood that Mr..
CHURCHILL has given in his adhesion to Mr..
WILLIAMS report. This being the cnse Mr..
WILLIAMS paper will bo the majority report.
Mr.. WILSON, the chairman Of the committee,
will present report oondemning and osnsurins
the President for some things he has done; but
opposing impeachment on legal and constitu.
tional grounds. It Is understood that the two
Democratic members-Me,srs. ELDRIDaE and
MARsHALL-while they will agree with Messrs.
WILSON and WOODBRIDGE in opposing impsach-
mont, will dissent from the proposal to cen,urs
the President. This appears to be about the
upshot Of the matter As it now stands, but few
hours will develop all.
We shall lay before our readers tomorrow Is
much Of those proceedings as We can possibly
hud space for. In the mean time, upon the
question Of impeachment itself, there seemed to
be various and contradictory views. Some who
certainly have the means Of knowing contend
that the House will propose and carry through
articles Of impeachment. Others as stoutly con.
tend that these articles cannot obtain thirty
votes In the House. We shall soon know
