A London dispatch in to-day's paper
says that the glut OF cotton goods in Ian.
cashire, England, issimply unprecedented.
Some Of the prominent mills are shutting
down. or restricting production. And
yet for two years past America has been
exporting large amount of cotton goods
to England. For instance, for the year
ending June S0th last, We exported $l4,-
435,62S worth, and since 1873 we have de-
creased our importations Of foreign cotton
goods, from all countries, from 500, $50, ,1l6
to Sl4, ,39S, ,791. The fact that our exports
of cotton goods are steadily increasing
and our imports steadily decreasing, is the
cause, in large part, Of the great glut in
the English market. And asit is in cot
ton, so it is III iron. Hence the recent
great failures in the iron trade in Great
Britain. We haveincreased our iron'and
steel exports from s6,3S9,429 in 1878 to
sl2,0S4,0S4 for the year ending the SOth Of
June last, and at the same time we have
decreased our imports Of iron from s44,-
6GO,4S0 in 1873 to $780,, ,oS4 during the
last year. Is it any wonder that times are
hard in England in these and other
branches of industry, when they are
losing, more and more every year, such a
valuable customer as the United States.
Not only losing her as a customer but en-
countering her as formidable rivalattheir
own doors.

An EXCITING SCENE IN CouRr.-During
the examination of female witness in
the Vanderbilt case on Tuesday an attempt
was made to extract testimony from her
by contestants counsel calculated to de-
grade the reputation Of the late Commo-
dore vandcrbilts widow, who was Miss
Crawford. The Surrogate met this offer OF
the contestants counsel with declaration
that il 1t were repeated he would order
the counsel to show cause why they
should not be punished for contempt.
This caused great excitement and an
extraordinary scene in court. Judge
Black said the Surrogate's threat did not
frichten him in the least; that they pro-
poSed to show that the intimate relations
existing between Miss Crawford and the
proponent placed the Commodore after
his marriage TO her in position where ne
could not help being powerfully intiu-
enccd by her. Mr.. Lord said he was not
coward. and tho threat OF the court did not
frighten him in the least. Mr.. Choate, OF
coInsel for Wm. II. Vanderbilt, arose
and began TO speak OF the turpitudee Of
attempting ate to injure the character Of q
Istranger to the cause, woman
who had an unblemished character" f"
Mrs. La Bau, a daughter OF Commo.
dore Vanderbilt, and the contestant
in tho case, had been unable q
restrain her sneers whenever the good
character Of the Commodore's widow had
been adyerted to, and at this expression o.
Mr.. Choate she laughed, looked across the
open space between herself and her broth
or William, and asked him In q scorntl
whisper, "Yhat do you think OF thatT
William II. Vanderbilt was looking at
spot on tho wall, and not muscle. Of hi
iacc moved. Finally Mr.. Lord said tha
they only wished to show the relations tha
existed between Wm. II. Vanderbilt anc
Miss Crawford before hor marriage to th'
Commodore. The offer was formally
made, objected 70, excluded, and the wit
. nefs stepped down,

Fears for Party of Government Sur
YeIOrN.

Chicago, October ia Lincoln, Ncb.,
special says: Several unfounded reports
OF Indian depredations in this State have
been published since the -Cheyennes
passed north along the Colorado line.
The Adjutant General Of Nebraska is now
in the western part OF the State and tele-
graphs from Kearney to Gov. Gardner
that number OF hostile Indians are with
in $50 miles OF that place. The only dep
relations were running of 40 ponies from
Wilson's rancho. Considerable anxiety,
concerning the safety Of two parties of 40
men who were surveying government
lands on tho Nigaberara river, in the i'm
mediate track OF Cheyennes, is expressed,
there being no word from them for two
weeks.
General Crook has ordered detachment
Of cavalry from Camp Robinson to hunt up
two government surveying parties.
