Depression Of Eng Iish Trade.

LONDON, February 6.-At the annual
meeting of the Manchester Chamber OF
Commerce the President submitted the
results OF q critical examination of the
causes OF the present depression OF trade
He stated that over-production, foreign
competition and legislation limiting the
hours of labor were the principal causes.
He urged that more control should be
exercised over undue enterprise IN cot
promoted competition, which st last cul.
minated in periodical vststions Of depres.
sion, also foreign competition. He said
Germany, Italy, Austria and Holland,
had lessened their imports OF woven
goods, while Belgium was so near our
equal that it had imported both woven
goods and yarns into England several
years. America has also gained yearly
upon us, her exports on cotton goods
TO this country having increased from
1880 pounds in 1870, to 45l, $40 pounds
in 1876. Regarding the laber question,
be said that when the mill owners OBJ
tained the passage OF the act limiting
the hours of labor to 81 hours per day
they did it without having proper re-
gard to the advantage thereby obtained
by foreign competitors. The fact was
incoLtestIble that whstever superiority
Of manufacture or power Of production
we might have, it was, TO u considerable
extent, thrown away, since the English
production OF nine snd one-hslf hours
had to compete with days work Of
eleven or twelve hours abroad, with lower
wages. He affected to say he could see
little or no immediate hope of revival
of trade.

committee on the Pacheco- Wlggintou
conte ted election case, from the Fourth
district of California. The majority re.
port declares WIggiDton entitled to q
seat, and the minority report declares
fscheco elected.
Speeches were made by Mr.. Springer
in support of the msjority report, and by
Mr.. Wait in support of the minority.
Mr.. Leonard said that from the evi.
denca it appeared that the contestant and
the contestee had received an equal num-
Der of voter, and he offered sub amend.
ment declaring that neither Pschecon or
Wigginton had been elected. He had
panied some of his party friends by de-
claring that he would not vote with his
party on the question. He had been told
that it was his duty to cast his vote as q
judge with his party. If so foul doc
trine as that was to be applied in courts
of judgment, let the meanness Of the
deed be acknowledged. There was no
necessity for adding hypocrisy to VII
liany. If the judges were to vote &C.
cording to their party proclivities let the
House do away with the farce of con-
tested elections.
Mr.. Garfield said the question had
narrowed down to very fine point and
he could not, until he studied the ques.
tion more minutely, say how he would
vote.
The matter went over without
action and the House adjourned.
