THE GRowL OF THE BRITISH TOBY.

The APPEAL copied the other day some of
the expressions derogatory to the American
democratic form of government, INDUCED in
by London newspaper opropos to the Gui-
teau crime and trial. We are surprised to
see that one OF the principal New York daily
journal treats those remarks seriously as if
they indicated change OF English feeling
since the warm and earnest sympathy the
British people manifested toward this coun-
try on the occasion of the assassination of
our late beloved president. Those express
sions were really indicative of no such
change, but were mere malignant Outpour-
ings OF tory spite. The tory is the Bourbon
OF England. He clings to old traditions,
and cherishes that narrow spirit which is fast
reducing the house of lords to usslessness
and bringing down upon it public contempt.
The tories oppose the just land law for Ire
land which Gladstone has carried through;

THE COTTON SUPPLY.
Ellison VS.. EIiisOH-SOme Facts for the
Consideration of Cotton Men.

The New York Commercial Bulletin pub
fishes the following, which speaks for itself
To the Editor of the Commercial Bulletin:
In his annual circular, issued October last
Ellison estimated the supply of cotton from
all sources other than the United States, al
100000 bales of 400 lbs. each, and that
Europe would require beside this 4,165, 0O0
American bales of 456 pounds each; and to
give Europe this quantity and leave America
with a very moderate supply (which he esti-
mated at 1850 900 bales), a crop OF 6,2I5 900
bales would be needed. Now, without pre-
tending that the wants of Europe are or are
likely to be diminished from his October esti-
mate by a single bale, he claims that an
American crop of $500 900 bales will be all
that is required. This brief and simple
statement will probably suffice for most peo-
pie. But, if any care TO see just how this
eminent authority" arrives at his latest
probably not his last ~ conclusion, let such
follow me further. He begins by estimating
arrivals from January LIST to October 1st, as
follows:
Bales.
From INDIA 24O, GOO
From Egypt 80 coo
From Brazil $4,000
From sundries -----.-----..-. $1,000
total OF 1,sS0,00O bales. Whereas, last
year, during the same period, there was re-
ceived from these sources but ,565, 900 bales,
and the movement from them all Is motor
iously earlier, and for the same reason that it
had been earlier in this country, to-wit:
earlier maturity and greatly increased facili-
ties for transportation. By this trick of
figures he gains SIS, 900 bales easily. Then
he as easily and as quietly gains IS, 900 by
figuring European consumption at 1000 bales
per week less than he estim ated it IN Octo-
Der, and in the same way gains 10000 bales
at the expense OF American consumption
and "a, 900 by taking it from the neU crop. In
this convenient way he supplies 499, 900 bales
of the deficiency. But even this will not
answer his purpose of making $500, 900
crop suffice. Yet, he is equal to the
necessity, and mark how cleverly he
hides the remaining deficiency of 20O,-
900 to 300,0 600 bales 1t took me some
time to find how it was done He leaves
the stock at the end OF September at the
ports and the nEitLs at only 965,000 bales;
whereas, last year this item was !, 242, 600,
and was found quite too small, as the mills
of all Great BritBin were credited with but
%, 900 bales, and one man was able to cor
ner ~ the Liverpool market and squeeze SO
or SIS per bale out OF English spinners and
long crop shortsl So much for Ellison and
his way OF using figures. A word now as to
some facts 1t is fact THAT Is. Ellison says sol
that American cotton averaged last year 456
pounds per bale. Also a fact (ride Ffnancial
CaroHicle) that to January 1st this crop has
averaged about II pounds per bale tess max
ing on a $4,000 crop a differences of
I39 600 bales. It is .facf that the
Of America, Canada and
will require 2,15o,0 600 bales. Here,
then, are 23e,O 900 bales which Mr.. Ellison

Important Telegraphic Decision

An important case was recently tried
at Leavenworth, Kansas, in the United
States court, involving the question of
the liability of telegraph companies for
errors in, or the non-delivery of, mes
sages written on blanks on which is
printed the usual non liability stipula-
ton, so familiar to persons whe have oc-
casion to use the telegraph.
The court, in this case, held that the
company can make no such arbitrary
stipulation; and, "that any rule or regu-
lation which seems to relieve 1t from per
forming its duty, belonging to the en-
ployment, with integrity, skill and dill
gence, contravenes public policy as well
as the law, and under it the party at
fault can be held to an account And
that, if in order to send this class of mes
sages with accuracy, skill and diligence,
it becomes necessary to have them re-
peated, the company nust perform this

Three or four citizens were the other
day having confab at the east entrance
of the city hall in regard to will power.
and there was one of the group who
dared to go far enough to assert that a
man of strong will power could draw a
person 10 him from a distance of 100
feet.
''Try it--try ltr' exclaimed one whose
faith was slight.
81 don't say thatI can do it, because |
may not have the strength of will.''
"Well, there's man down by the gate
who is looking up and down as it unde-
cided. Bend your will on him and see if
you can draw him this way"
''Plltry 1t, just to please you," replied
the advocate, and he fastened his gaze on
the man, clenched his hands, and put
forth a mighty effort. The man at the
gate seemed to feel it. He looked across
at the monument--downt the street-then
up at the hall.
''Pll be hanged if you aren't doing itl''
whispered one of the group.
The advocate braced himself for a
greater effort, and the man at the gate
left his place and walked straight to-
wards the building. He advanced like
one in dream, and not a man dared
move hand. He came close and closer,
and as he reached the steps he pulled a
paper out of his pocket, held it up to the
man with the will power, and quietly re-
marked:

around after you, and want my money
