THE BN0LI8H COTrOH TEADE—0L00MY
PROSPECTS.
’] lie following inteioiting-nml iuinorlant
hriielc is from a* a rent number of ihe Ijon
<li mi Timta:
While Lanc-tsliite scotns to be oscillating
hnwycin rovtriii!^ trade atul returning iiitn
iity, an 1 wii'le the |.ulilie is scanning with
anxiety at tho prospects <»1 the ensu
ing wi;it*r, wc can place before the cou ltry
an exact anil partimilar tfcoount ot the pro
gress made during the last two years .to liiat
e.insiurnnatidn which is to render cotton
I aminos impcssiblc lor the future. It is
known that wo have .proclaimed our neces
sities to the whole worlJ, and have sound-
ud our detiiaLtls for cotton fn 'eyery quarter
of i lie globe. In all our own colonies the
production anil export «f this piecioas raa-
ti-rial liavc been encouraged by authority ;
in all foreign parts we have applied the stlin-
ulnus.nl high priced to increase the supply.
This extraordinary demand has now been
i nai it lai tied lor at least two years'; indeed,
t L j American blockade has actually existed
longer than that, and .could have been anti
cipated with oertuinty for some time before.
A1 though, therefore, it must be remembered
Unit coiion planting is not an industry to be
matured in a month or two, wo might rea
soiiably to the results now asoertaiued with
mi line liveliueas of expectation. With the
whole world for sellers, and England for a
a buyer, Uie market ought to show some
promising 1 iiMtro. To a certain extent, in
deed, this confidence would bejustidad ; but
we doubt whether the predominant teclirg
will not be ono of disappointment.
We shall present the truth to the public
. staling tho exact figures of our whole
cotton import for tho first six months ol the
present anti two preceding years, la 1801
tho American snpply had, for the two quar
ters in question, been but partially affected.
The blockade was in lor®o towards tne lat
ter part of the period, but tUVm the expoits
hid bceu pushed eagerly forward in tho be-
gmniu£ ol tho year under a conviction of
the crisis impendiug. in thdso six months,
then, commencing with January and ending
with .rune, 18(51, the raw cotton imported
into the United Kingdom reached the amount
of d,8o7,S.>7 cwt. Ot* these, 5,871,4£> cams
from dis United States of America—leaviug
9SS, 122 to be supplied from other quarters.
Ot this remainder, again, India sent 095 542,
so that only 258,3*0 had to be carried to the
account of thu world at large. Tho balance,
no, can bo reduced still further. As Egypt
contributed 205,915 cwt., and Brazil 53,52V
making together 25S,430—it follows that the
miscellaneous or scattered imports from ali
parts of the world, exccpi those named, pro
duced but a total of 29,400. This analysis
ot the scjount before us will supply some
very convenient standards for comparison,
la contrasting the years 18U2 and suc-
oebsively w.tti 1861, we have only lo look
first to the total imports, next to those from
America, then to thoso from Iodia, then to
those from Brazil and Egypt, aud finally to
t lie balance remaining, which will show
what lias bteu done for us by the world ia
general.
lu 1862 the total drops dowu from nearly
7,000,000, as just stated, to little more than
a* mill ion and a Lalf—in fact, from 6 857,857
111,052,733. The decline ia the American
coutribuiion explains this at once, being
nothing less than a fall from 5.674,435 to
37,2‘?S. However, this was situ ply what was
lo be expected; let us see how far and from
what quarters the deficiency has been met.
ludts, instead of sending 635.832 cwl., sent
1,001,437; and Brazil and Egypt together
instead ol sendiug 25S.480, saut471,764 —
Of the whole balance, therefore, or 1,615,4-15
cwt. remaining to be tuade up from-other
than American sources, the miscellaneous
parts of the woi Id contributed tup. 113,251
even in 1862— India, Egypt aud Brazil pro
viding all the rest. Tuis year the account
t xliitiirs similar leatures. The total imports
have increased to.aa almost nominal amount
— i>S7G The win Id, thcieloie.il as up w trds
Ot 2.000,000 CWL to supply, aa«l ot these In
dia furnishes 1,301,763,and Brazil aud E,-ypt
between them, 565,763. It results that <»ur
miacetlaueous supplies amount la Ihe aggre
gate to 357,373.
We consider this somewhat discouraging,
because it shews how liitle at present the
whole world stands for. It is not that the
miscellaneous contributions have not actual
ly increased, for they have in fact been mul
tiplied above tenfold—rising from less than
30,000 to upwards of 390,000. But the thing
c-lines to uothing when. *t is done., The
whole sweep of our great dragnet does not
hriug in as much us we get from the Single
1 vpd ot E^ypt; aud this is the more remark
able lioiu ihe asioui&kiug extent of the area
included. It seems per fectly true that cot
ton will grow anywhere.' Even in 1861
when our reliance was still upon America!
we implored the material from as many as
thirty diflerent countries. The next year
eleven new sources were added, and sixteeu
more the year after that. At this minute we
import raw cotton from sixty six different
quarters, and yot, after ad. onr gross -supply
is aca'oely swelled by this multitude of con
tributions. It instill upon one or two ebieJ
sources that wc depend. If anything were
to interfere with the Indian or Egyptian ex
pens, wc should have another fall. Tne
“scaiiferiugs” go for next to nothing.
Nor do we sec any indication ot material
change. The increase ia the Indian export
has been considerable and steady, no doubt,
but not large enough to put us nt our case.
Bombay, the cbiex source of this supply,
has rattier fallen off lids year. It.* exports
rose from 000,691 cwt., in 1861, to 817,480
in 1863, but declined to 834,300 in 1883. On
the other hand, Bengal has sprang np from
some 5000 to more Uian 159,000, and Singa
pore now first appears as an hnmble eoutii
bu or. We obseive, too, with much in'er-
est, that Cbiua, which sent nothing 1861,
and only 113 cwt. in 1832, lias sent us 110,-
460 cwt. in the first six months of the pres-
eent year. But their are certain items in the
account which require a good*deal,«T expla
nation. The ex'ports IVom tho Bahamas
represent, of course, not home prodaco, but
cotton which had found its way to those
parts from the Confederate States, and other
cou tii but ions probably partake ot tne same
churacter. Still it is clear that we gtt but
driblets of this supply. The blockade ol
the Southern ports is effective; the cotton
is kept at home; and Lancashire, notwiili
standing ail our t-lfort*, is prostrate iu con
sequence.
Vfe do not pretend to say that uuy evi
dence at this early period ot the experiment
cau be considered conclusive. Possibly an
other year may yield a very different return,
but we do uot wtll sec where to look for the
improvement. It must be a worK of time;
and the question is wuethor even time will
do it, for it is price, alter all, which will de
termine the retult. Will Intli^ or Egypt, or
any other country, or all countries together,
send us not only sufficient cotton, but cotton
at 6i per pound? If so, then the trade ol
Lancashire will revive agaiu; but if the raw
materia] is only lo be bought at twice that
figure, then we can never find customers j
for our manufactured articles as belore. Wc j

and committing depredations on their prop

FROM THE UNITED STATES.
The Petersburg Express publishes copious
extracts from late Northern paper* from
which we gather the following, which our
readers will receive with the usual allow*
anco for falaehoods. The army corrcspon*
dent of the Herald says:
Auxy of the Potomac, Oct. 10.—Th^
Second army corps was in line of battle yes
lerday afternoon, with its left resting, on Ball
Run, when rebels open with a battery at long
range c n the supply trains ot tho corps; but
thev failed to destroy a single wagon. Their
battery was speedily silenced, an 1 u fiveiy in
fantry skirmish ensued, continuing some two
hour.- * 1 * . General Webb’s and General Ilaye’s
divisions sustaining the principal fire of the
enemy, with a los3 of five wounded iu the
former, and two in the latter.
Up to six o’clock this evening ail has been
quiet to-day ali alortg the entire front.
The smoke of the rebel camp fires indi
cates that they r have fallen back to Manassas,
in the immediate vicinity of the famous brick
house where G.m. Beauregard had his head
quarters before the first Bull Ran battle.
The report is extensively circulated that
Gen. Lee has received large reinforcements
front both Bragg and Joe Johnston, and
there ure some, strange to relate, who credit
it. Gen Meade is undoubtedly well inform
ed as to the movements of the rebel army,
and prepared for any contingency.
Gen. Meade has issued a general order di
recting all sutlers and sutler’s teams to pro
ceed at once to Alexandria.
Washington, Oct. 17.—Reports from the
front indicate a movement on the part of
the enemy’s cavalry towards the Potomac,
and steps are being taken tor the prevention
of another cavalry raid ia that direction.
In addition to the la'rgo number of soldiers
already employed ia strengthening the do-
feao s, one thousand more were detailed
from the convalescent camp to day tor that
purpose.
To day there has been a perfect tor rent of
army suiters i ouring into Washington, iu
consequence of an order directing that cias?
to leave the front by 5 o’clock this afternoon.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of
goods are being stored, and vacant rooms,
cellars, Ac., are disposed of at most exhorbh
taut rates. »
The military authorities here appear to
understand the recent' movement of the
rebel army of -Virginia. By some it is eoa-
tended that Lee’s army numbers not m ore
than 30,000 uieu; but it is incredible that
our own splendid army of the Potomac
should have l>een pressed back from the
Rapidan by au inferior force, to avoid being
flanked and taken in the rear. The best
opinion is that‘large reinforcements have
been sent fi om Bragg’s army to Lee, to en
able him to make a dash upon the capita’.
It is aot believrd by experienced military
meu that he would make such ari attempt
without a powerfufforce at his command.
The alternative is plain that Lee has either
pushed our army back with a mere hand tail
of men, or he has a tremendous army to,
sustain him. The latter is probably uu *
and an altemgt to flank Meade’s army by
attacking Washington, may he executed.
Three hundred and ninety-two prisoners
of war, captured on Wednesday lost near
Brtatoe Station, reached this city lost night,
and were committed to the Old Capital.
From information received tram the Army
of the Potomac to-night, it appears that a
a body of the enemy .were seen passing
Southward, opposite Blackburn’s Ford, last
night, and our batteries shelled them- Tuey
replied for half an hour ani then d.sap
pea red. They made mother demonstration
yesterday. It was rumored that one corps
of the enemy was approaching Fairfax, yes
terday by the Chantilly rood, and our heavy
batteries were sent out in that direction.
They have returned aud report all quiet.—
Our army is perfectly safe.
There are not less than two or three hun
dred guerrillas this side of the Rappahau
nock and South of Meade’s army. Tney
Maj.
Warren, the gallantry and bearing of the
officers and soldiers oflhe Second corps,are
entitled to high commendation.
By comtnadd of Maj Gen. Meade.

FROM ROSECUANs’ AIIMV.
Ch vttahooga, October 10—Since the 7th
no hostile demonstrations have been made
by the enemy upon onr front. Their batte
ries on the North western slope of the Look
out Mountain have evidently been with

felt as if I wanted to take old mother Eng
land by the hair au^give her a mighty good
shaking. [Loud laughter aad applause ] —
I am not sure that this is the wisest plan;
but of this I feel tolerably sure, that .Eng
land will not send any more pirate ships
out ogarast us ; and I think that England
thinks tho matter over calmly—when she
reflects of the Alabama, fitted out in a Brit
ish port manned by British seamen, armed
by British guns, and ever since’ roving over
the seas, plundering merchant vessels, with
out bringinS a single one into any port—
when they come lo look over these things,
they will e include it is best to pay the A-
merieau merchants for all the pillage the
Alabama has done. [Loud cheers.]
We have got a sort oi new empire upon
our borders m Mexico. Well, gentlemen, I
am not much disturbed about that. Em
pires will not lu9t long in Central America.
[Cheers.] I don’t know how long this em
pire—il id gets born—will last. This was
an attempt lo make au empire in Mexico
sometime ago, and, if I am not mistaeen,
was no great success. 1 do not know that
tbia Austriad Emperor will find his bed of
roses there, but I am strongty inclined to
think tknt the roses will be. very few and the
bed very hard. [Cheers aud loud laughter.]
I am wilting to b ust to the future, ana 1 am
perfectly sure, taking all taings into consid
eration, that the European monarebs will,
iu the end, think it hard to keep their insti
tutions at home. I am confident of this.—
[Cheers] I do not propose any parlioular
measures just .now. It ie uev't wise to ad
vance what you are going to do a great
while in advance of doiu6 it; but I think
the time will come when the world will re
consider these things, and when this Repub
lic ot ours will be re-establisliad from the
Gull towards the Poia, and from the Atlan
tic to the Pacific, based upon freedom and
free labor, gathering strength u-jm our pres
ent contest, aud rising from it grander than
ever.
The “Faihioxablr Sals of the Sf.a*
sox” came off yesterday at No “167 ’ Alain
street, until lately one of the many attrac
tive gaming establishments'of the city, i’te
sale was conducted by Mr. E. H. Pleasants,
auctioneer, who appeared with a silver ham
mer, white kiis,white waistcoat, black dress
coat, barred pals—his general make-np giv
ing eclat to the unusual occasion. The au
dience of buyers and spectators was Jar *e,
and composed mostly of that class \vii> are
expected lo bid, aot gape and iook on, ancl
see the “mo.-tsupeib piece oft urn iture me
chanical skill ever put together” go for a
song. Among the females we noticed the
several proprietresses of as mauy fashionable
brothels, cac up and the other down town,
and theyseeiruxl lo-be bidders in competi
tion for several pieces of farnilu re very desi
rable iu their estimation. As might be ex
pected from the elegant style of articles« x-
pesed, the bidding wa3 lively, and prices
were obtained that will do uo discredit even
to the gaming fraternity.
An elegant set of silver-plated ware brought
$803, and onother, surpassing the first in fin
ish and beauty, $1,200.
A stunning rosewood tidebnard was
“knocked down” at $900, but ihe exclama
tion of “what a pity!” from a by-stander
caused the sideboard te change hands imme
diately at $1,050, or an cdrauce of $150 on
the first price. A second sideboard was sa
crificed at $900, and & thud, as the elegant
auctioneer said,was “actually thrown away”
at $540.
The gorgeous mirrors in the “ House ol
Lords' 1 and “Com roa-” reflected $800 a
