ACCORDING to the agricultural report for May, the net reports imports of cot ton into European states were equal to nearly four -fifths of the volume of the last crop of the United States, while the exports from this country were equal to seven-tenths of all i'm ports of European countries. The re- ceipts of Great Britain were more than those of all the other countries. Germany, Russia, France, and Spain follow in order. This country is only exceeded by Great Britain in cotton manufacture, and should, ere many de- cades pass, attain the first rank. There has been a greater relative advance in consumption of cotton in continental countries during the past ten years than in Great Britain. The estimated actual consumption of cotton for ten years ended in 1887 -'68, according Q Elliston, of Liverpool, averages 1.4l6, 6,440,OOO pounds for Great Britian and 1,595, 600 900 pounds for the Continent.
