London, 8. From the yearly circulars OF
prominent brokers they say that the cotton
trade was not so good in 1872 as in the pre-.
vious year, and the rate obtained was not
even remuneratiye. Spinners and manufac-
turefs commence the new year well under
contract. Business for the present will be
influenced by the quantity of imports and the
present scarcity is likely to be tided over
without any advancement of prices. OF the
sugar trade it is stated that the consumption
OF 1871 in Europe and the United States
was increased in 1872 by about 2 l-a per
cent. 1t is expected that the new crop will
be at least II per cent. better than the last
while stocks are accommodating and depre-
citation i'll prices are certain. Of the timber
trade it is said that the forests being cleared
for supplies grow continually further from
the seapQrts and enforcement in prices is
probe. The petroleum trade is in satsfac-
tory condition and business is CERTAIN to in
crease. Legislation however is required, as
British merchants are only allowed to import
oil infamable at l20 degrees, while those Of
the continent can import it at only ITO de-
grees. The wool trade is in an unsatisfac-
tory state. The imports for the first time in
its history have fallen off. The deficit has
evidently gone to the United States.

committee, his tull answer to Mr.. Merrick'S

whether the conduct of others not within his
knowledge, was moral or not, bat the impress
sion in his mind at the time, he would give
frankly. He had beard that many railroads
were built hy turning over their mortgage
bonds to contractors at about ~ cts on q dol
lar, which the road had ultimately 10 pay for
at par, and he inferred that, as SO many
millions had regarded the building Of any Pa

it themselves for tie subsidy, whether it
proved profitable or Improbable. with such
