Cotton SpecUlatiOns.

At a meeting Of a committee of
Oldham cotton spinners, held at Man
chester last week, resolution was
passed, recommending the avoidance
of those brokers whonotouously foster
immoderate speculation. Copies Of
the resolution have been forwarded to
other towns. There is a strong feeling
in Preston that short time should gen
orally be rcsorted to in the cotton trade
to checkmate the action Of the ring Of
Liverpool brokers who are keeping
the price of cotton penny pound
higher than it should be Trade is
uaremuneratiye, many nils working
at loss This depression seems an
omalus when the fact is known that at
a meeting of the Board Of Guardiai S
it was urged that no relief should be
given any weavers because there W; S
work for 600 more at Preston. The
Manchester, in its commercial article
the other day says: "The maL@Ivres
in the Liverpool cotton market are be
ing watched with interest. The point
upon which all accounts agree is that
of 400, GOO bales of August and Sep
TENDER deliveries sold in Spring months
by bears somewhat over two hundred
thousand bales have been rendered ana
taken up, and the rest will have to be
provided or settled tor before the
close of September The point Of in
terest is at what time these outstand-
ing engagements will be closed, as
thereafter it is expected that the price
of cotton will decline more or less rap

A Recent Virginia BacI.

New York, Aug. 30.-The Sun has
a story Of duel at Warrenton, Va.
between Robert a. Campbell and
james c. Scott. The affair resulted in
a painful though not dangerous injury
to one Of tie principals, and also in
the arrest Of all the parties. The af-
fair was conducted in great secrecy.
They differed, it IS said in politics.
Mr, Campbell recently received the
nomination Of the Beadiusters for the
House Of Delegates, and bis populari
ty and ability would, it is believed,
have resulted in his election. Mr
Scott IS a Conservative, and has re-
garded Campbells DETECTION for some
lime with suspicion. The duel is said
arisen from an accusation made by
Scott that Campbell had become q Re
adjuster for dollars and cents. When
Mr.. Campbell heard Of the accusation
he replied by note, in which he issaid
to have accused Scott Of being a liar.

A Republican Organ Sees Light

The Knoxville Republican thus
talks out in meeting.
The people who believe their iiber
ties are secure, and that there are no
rights denied them, are as much the
tools Of the aristocrats, monarchists,
and monopolisrs as though paid 70
believe as they do.
As for ourselves, we see the capt
talistS Of the country fastening their
golden webs on the officials Of the
country as spiders tastcn their web
on flies. We see Senators and repre-
sentatiyes chosen, not by the people
but soy the combination Of capitalists,
and the mechanations Of monarchists
and the willy articles of scheming
aristocrats.
Wealth naturally loves power and
hates liberty. No nation can remain
free that allows great wealth to accu-
mulate in few hands. Whenever
one man becomes worth half million
doliars he makes five thousand paupers
aud five thousand paupers become
five thousand slaves, and the million
airo becomes their master.
How the hearts of Patrick Henry,
Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin,
and other patriots of rs, sickened
when they saw the gaping crowds that
followed the gilded coach and livlied
trappings of the pompous British
arIstocrats!

two millions OF dollars of Eastern cap

millions have been subscribed in New
