TRADE IN AMERICAN COTTON
GOODS WITH ENGLAND.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-The Consul
General of the United States at London,
in his despatch of the 18th ultimo., calls
attention to the reports of the United
States Consuls at Manchester and Bir-
mingham, from which it will be seen
that trade in American cotton goods is
springing up in England, and that mil
lions of dollars worth have already been
disposed of in the kingdom, aud that
American manufactures of the articles
known as Birmingham ware, more es-
pecially agricultural implements, are ia
vorably regarded in Great Britain and
her colonies. With regard to the latter
it is the superiority in the lightness and
finish OF the ARTICLES, and the willingness
of Americans to vary patterns to suit the
customers, that have brought about the
preference which now exists for Ameri-
can works,
The daily gazette., 1877-12-05

DURING the exma session there were
some seventeen hundred bills introduced
into Congress, of which more than one
third were of personal nature, more
than one-half asked for appropriations,
and one-fifth for pensions. The total ap-
preparations called for by these bills foot
up seventy mine million dollars, of which
thirty-six and a-half million dollars may
be classed under the head of public i'm
provements. We take it for granted that
the majority of these bills will either be
killed in committee or defeated in open
session. The decrease in treasury receipts
is sufficient argument in favor OF pur-
suing the policy Of retrenchment and re,
form which controlled the legislation oi
the last Congress, and we do not believe
that the Democrats in the present body
are disposed to make any serious depar-
ture from the line of economy already
laid down. If they do they will deserve
to lose the control of both Houses, which
they are now certain to secure early IL
1879, if not before. Bait. Gazette.
