How England Sees Us.

The London Times of August3 30 pub
fishes remarkable letter from a corre-
spondens who had then recently visited
the United States, and who had summe d
up his views in the manner set forth in
his letter to the Times, the main part of
which we give below. In its comments
upon this letter, the Times says: "We
must hope that the gloomy predictions
OF the writer regarding the United
States becoming independent Of foreign
supplies are based upon an erroneous
deduction" But, to us, such predic-
tions are not regarded as GLOOMY" in
view of our own interests and future

THE LETTER.

THE LhI1EH.
August %, 1875.
SIR-I am glad 10 see that the danger
to our manufacturers from the competi-
ton of our American rivals is receiving
some discussion in your columns. No
subject of more vital interest can engage
the attention of mercantile men. 1 have
had opportunity during a good many
years to watch the progress OF Ameri-
can manufactures, and l am satisfied
that America is soon to become by very
much the most formidable competitor
we have ever known. 1t is probable
that the Philadelphia Exhibition will
hasten this consummation, and will be
found hereafter to mark the opening of
new era for both England and American
manufactures.
The present position of American in
dustry is in ahigh degree unsatisfactory.
Protective duties and the war demand
caused an excessive increase of predue-
ing power. Protection made prices
dear, and profits consequently large. 1t
stripped foreign competition OF its ter
rors, and caused the days of the manu-
facturer to pass in joy. But it also led
imperceptibly to the expansion of old
works, and the creation OF new, until
there was running in America an
amount OF machinery enormously be-
yond the real wants of the country. And

eyes, fixed with so pitiless stare on
mine. The subtle, suffocating odor
which large serpents exhale, when
angry, reached me, but already l
gave myself up for lost, and waited
passive till the tic palunga should
make his fatal dart.
The sibilant noise from the snakes
half-shut jaws had grown louder, and
the bright, baieful eyes more mena-
cling, while the grim head lowered
high aloft, ready to strike-when
suddenly, something bright flashed
through the Towering vines Of the
creeping plant, and the snakes hid
eous head and 1.-THE body disappeared
as If by magic. Then followed the
sounds of a fierce struggle, repeated
blows, trampling feet, and swapping
boughs, and the accents of human
voices; and then Oswald came leap
ing through the doorway, clasped
me in his arms, and bore nee out in
to the broad light of day, where lay
--writhing yet-tbe carcass of the
dead snake, hewn through by the
sharp-cutting ak which Oswald still
grasped in his right hand.
"Shahash.n exclaimed Lall Singh,
whose swarthy face cleaned with de-
light as he spurned the body of the
vanquished reptile. st was well
that first blow went home, or 1T
would have Jared but badly with the
young sshib when this accursed
slayer of men turned on him. Wahl
I'd sooner have faced tiger"
To Lall Singh ! was, indeed, in no
slight degree Indebted for my safety.
Convinced, from the agitation OF my
manner, that something was wrong,
he had followed me, and WAS i'm the
act OF arousing Oswald from his
siumber, when the piercing shrek
which fear had wrung from me re-
echoed through the woods, and called
attention TO the imminence of the
peril. Then Oswald had snatched up
one of the keen, short axes which the
native wood. cutters had left sticking
in tree-trunk, md had been fortu-
nate enough to disable the snake at
the first blow.
My story is now told, and | have
only to add that ! was overwhelmed
with praises and caresses by the For
ster faniiy--hitherto so cold--and
that on the following day, MIR. For
ster himself rode over to my fathers
house to entreat Mr.. Travers, from
whom he bad Of late been estranged,
to accept his renewed friendship, and
to ask for my hand on behalf Of his
son. Oswald lost his passage on
board the homewurd- bound steamer
that was to touch at Point de Gale;
and when he did visit Europe be
took with him Ellen Travers as his
wife.
We have long been happily settled
far from tropic jungles and their
dangerous inhabitants--but never
have either my husband or myself
forgotten those few instants Of bitter
anguish and alarm beside the Tank
of Minary.
