On the week end,nx July 8, the total stock in
III Amerio.n ports amounted to only 81 sS3
belee. sSsinst supply IS 0e1 at the same
period In 1853. Take il altogether, according
TO the average Of last years consumption,
EuGlsnd has not much more than twenty weeks
supply Of >otton on hand and at sea. The
consumption this year is. q course, below
the average Of last year. Otherwise, BY the
time our new cotton crop begins to come for
Ws1d Manchester would be very nearly reduced
10 ns last cotton bale.
Tho American. market corresponds in many
respects to the English. Tempted by high
prices, We have sold TOO much cotton, and
have scarcely enough for home consumption.
during the next few months, the pr1ce OF the
raw material must advance considerably above
present rates. We notice that the National
Association Of Cotton Manufa cturers and Plant
ers, ct their meeting in this clty last week, re-
commanded manu-. .scturers to curtail opera
tins, on the ground that the maximum Of
supply during the interval before the New crop
Gomez forward will barely cover the MINIMUM
OF consumption. A slorpage Of machinery is
therefore rged as essentia,.
A review Of the cotton trade on both sides OF
the Atlantic indicates an upward tendency OF
pr1ces. Southern planters will have the ad.
vantage of throwing their new crop upon q
high market. Whether prices can be main
tanned depends OF course upon the actual sup
ply. But ju lgiDg from the most probao,e

.OHELsEA, LoNpoS, January 10, 1869.
Dear Sir At last. have receive d
your pamphlet; and havo road it with
what attention and appreciation L
could bestow.
Considerable faculties Of mind are
manifested in it; powers of intellect,
Of Imagination q serious earnest
character; here and there o tone of
sombro cloquenco, and ycstigcs of real
literary skill.
But my constant regret was, and is,
to see such powers operating in field
palpably chaotic, and lying beyond
the limits Of man's intelligence These
are not thoughts, which you give ;
they are huge, gaunt vacant dreams
forever incapable, by nature, Of being
either affirmed or denied.
My clear advice, therefore, would
be give up all that; refuse to employ
your intellect on things where no iu-
tollect can avail to SOW good seed on
realms of nero cloud and shadow! -
Tho highest intellect which issues in
no certainty has completely failcd.-
This world of practice and fact is tho
true arena for its inhabitants; wide
enough for any or for all intcllccts
of mon; and never lay more cncum-
bored with sordid darkness and perui.

Real intellect might wiitc With ad-
Aantage On such things; better, still
perhaps, it might remain silent, and
bend it's whole forco on illuminating
ones own poor path in such wilder
ness on moro and moro clearly uscer.

Your tract | have found Throughout
to be rather pleasant reading, and IL
