LONDON, Thursday, Sept %, 1862
The Times to-day has an editorial on the present
situation of affairs in France. 1t says: If the En-
peror is recovered his conduct cannot easily be
accounted for. The new Constitution may be re-
garded as already virtually in vigor. The granting
OF amnesty, the tolerance extended TO the press,
every circumstance contributes to foster the convic
tlOn that new era has dawned Yet the Emperor
remains inactive as if he considered every

convocation of the Legislative Body. Uneas-
mess at the delay causes some members to contem-
plate the invasion of their premises next month
with the view of celebrating without the consent
of the Executive. No one however, expects resort
TO such extremes The legality of the Emperors con-

dissolution and reconyocation Of the Chambers de-

THE COTTON SUPPLY,

LONDON, Thursday, Sept 49, 1869.
The Times in an article on the cotton supply says :
Mr. Ashworth and Mr.. Bright by different methods
arrive at the same end, namely, that nothing is
wanted but cotton. More cotton would start the
mills dispel distress and silence the camOrs against
free trade Of this we are not sure but we are well
aware that the prOstTatiOn of industry in Ian
cashire demands attention. Cotton is dear be-
cause it is scarce. Why scarcei The crop
of the Southern States with considerable
consignments from other points has enormously in
creased the supply. If less cotton arrives Liverpool
must investigate the 1t would be safer TO
that Lancashire suffers from loss of trade than
from dearness and scarcity of cotton. The demand
for goods is less than it formerly If the Ameri
cans would take our manufactures as freely as we
take their crop of cotton, the industry would be
entirely ours and the supply of material theirs. 1t
is not improbable that the protective tariffs of other
countries are answerable in some degree for the de-
preston in Lancashire 1t is certain that in this
cheap cotton will not remedy the suffering
The loss of the market is not material Our manu-
features formerly commanded the world; they were
better and cheaper than those of other countries.
What is to be done that people refuse to buy in
the cheapest market Without free trade manufac
turing excellence loses its value If trade is bad in
consequence of the restrictions of other countries,
the scarcity or abundance of cotton is immaterial.
Without doubt Lancashire suffers because other
countries refuse to trade freely with To attempt
to relieve her sulerngs by refusing to trade freely
with them would be absurd.
