Hans is a prudent person, fond of trade of Great Britain for 1S71 : We may remark, further, that the home trade department has been much better than the India and China de partment. Much of the strength of Manchester has arisen from the excel lent home demand, caused by the hi«h wages and good employment prevail ing all over the kingdom, and this de partment still keeps healthy ; but the news from the Eastern markets has been extremely disappointing for ma ny months, the goods shipped early in the year, when cotton was 2d ttt 3d lower than it is now, are barely cover ing cost ; and the great rise that has taken place generally in cotton values on this side has not met the faintest response in the East, and, indeed, the China markets are much lower now than at the beginning of the year,with every sign of being at last fairly over done. It we were to look merely at the Eastern trade, it would be impos sible to understand the strength ol Manchester, for in former years it was that department that gave tone to the whole market ; but of late the home and nearer markets have relatively in creased in importance, and that to such an extent aslto overshadow somewhat the Eastern demand. It wouid be unwise, however, to forget that, this important element of strength is want ing in Manchester at present, and, speaking generally, we rather fear that the trade doing of late is some what forced in its character, and is hosed more upon the expected scarci ty and dearness of the raw material oral months past has been the size of ■ j n receipts, causing our visible supply the American crop.

Looking merely to the large scale of receipts at the moment, we should say that the high er estimate was nearer the mark, but remembering, on the other hand, that the Agricultural Bureau reports 15 per cent, less land under culture, and knowing beyond all doubt that the season has been a poor one, and the yield per acre vastly below that of last year, we should feel inclined rath er to lean towards the smaller one.— Our present bias, on the whole, is for a crop of about three and a quarter millions, or say fully a million bales be low the last one. the other hand, receipts hold on toler ably well, and we reach the planting season without any cause for excite ment, we should say that all chance of a serious rise is g >n<?, for afterwards the contiolling influence will be the expectation of next crop ; the next two or three months will be critical for spinners, but after that we lean to the expectation of lower rather than higlrer prices. Egyptian cotton, however, stands in a different position. It has long ruled far cheaper relatively than Amer ican, and this, combined with the ex ceptional goodness of the fine spinaing trade, has developed a vast increase of consumption.

These daugers grow out of and are inseparable from the present organiza tion of the Republican party. Iis foundation, its philosophy, its history, and its leaders recognize military pow er and the corrupting use of money by official patronage as legitimate forces in ordinary civil administration, and now more than ever are they brought into active exercise. The Democratic party confronts this theory, and de- n.unces these practices. Founded upon the idea of local gov ernment, jealous ot powers granted to authority, taught that simplicity and economy are essential to the honesty necessary in republican institutions, it maintains with more determined pur pose that the military must be subor dinate to the civil authority, and that offices are a trust for the people, uot spoils for the victors. money, willing to work, and sublimely indifferent to liis surroundings so long as he can live comfortably and put by a put of money with which to buy land and secure a home.

The demand for machinery is still strong, and the makers are deeply un der contract, and therefore we con clude that the consuming power will increase further during the coming year, though we believe most of the addition will be for tine spinning, which does not involve a large con sumption of cotton. Besides, the gen eral tendency of the trade is to prodece higher numbers, aud therefore we do not expect that the deliveries will be su large as last year. Probably, if cot ton keeps dear, they may be consider ably less, aud this will be more appa rent if spinners part with the large by ten years of reverses.

Spinners all over the world are unusually well supplied, the actual stock iu the three great Eu ropean depots—Liverpool, Loudon and Havre—is 370,000 bales above last year. The amount coming from India is much larger, and at the high scale of prices ruling, we expect to draw from tiiat country a large additional supply compared with last year. Al together, from one source and another we believe that an American crop of three and a quarter millions will ad mit of a full consumption of cotton throughout the season, and without reducing stocks inconveniently low at any period ; but it will require that spinners part with the surplus stock they now hold, and tiiat the consump tion be thrown far more largely upon East India cotton. The strength of our market lias in the fact that a dis proportionate consumption of Amer ican cotton has taken place this past year ; for it is impossible to see how so large a consumption of that class can be fed this coming year out of a crop of less than three and a half mil lions of baies. This we freely admit; the actual consumption of American cotton iu Europe and America the past twelve months must have been nearly 4,000,000 bales (at one time last year we think it was 40,000 bales per week in this country alone,) the ques tion is, how will this consumption be cut down to three and a half millions of bul-s during the coming year.* Our town spinners show an unusual reluc tance to substitute short stapled cot ton ; though the margin of price is much lower than usual between American and Surat, they adhere tenaciously to the former. We sus pect that this cause will operate dur ing the ensuing year (though with perhaps lessened force if trade becomes worse), and that spinners will only be drawn on to Surat cotton by great re lative cheapness, but on the Continent we anticipate a tar larger consumption of the cheaper material and a much smaller demand for American. Continen tal spinners always avoid high-priced cotton, and we have no doubt they will take much less of the American supply this year, leaving us the lion’s share of the crop. We further expect that at the high prices ruling, Ameri ca will be completely drained at the end of the season. No stocks will be left either in the depots or iu hands of the spinners, and all this extra supply will find its way to England. When these considerations are taken into ac count, we do not expect that any alarming reduction will need to be ma le in the consumption of American cotton, but only a moderate readjust ment, which will be brought about imperceptibly as the year goes on. The fact of starting the year at 10d. instead of 8d. is a great incentive to economy, aud if such price is main American are trying to substitute Egyptian cotton, and go on to finer counts of yarn. Tlie last Egyptian crop, large as it was, entirely disap peared, only 15,000 bales remaining in stock here before the new crop ar rived. The present crop is believed to be rather less than the last, and it has to meet a great increase of consump tion, and we conclude that, as the year advances, Egyptian cotton must rise considerably above the price of American, and there may, at times, be inconvenient scarcity. 'File great ex pansion of the fine spinning trade makes it imperative that the crops in Egvpt should be rapidly increased, for no other cotton can be substituted on any large scale for the long and strong stapled sort that comes from that country. Cotton Mills.—The Shipping List says: “The spread of cotton manu facturing industries at the South is one of the most gratifying indications of the times. The estab ishment «f cotton mills all over the South would add an immense valuation to the raw material. This would be retained in the country and distributed among operatives and laborers of all classes, who are required in and about manu factories. These would iu turn dis tribute it in purchases, and thus cre ate a widespread prosperity. T-he condition of the South, as respects the employment of capital and labor, is to be.on an entirely different basis in the future. In the days ot slavery, capital was invested iu large planta tions and in slaves to carry them on. There was little money to spare in the erection of manufactories, and if there had been, there was an insurmounta ble obstacle iu the way of entering largely into manufacturing. It was the conflict between slave labor and free labor. Slave labor was unskilled, and, under slavery was incapable of attaining any high degree of excellence; free labor would not work, and s# the South was confined mainly to the pro duction of the raw material. Now, however the conditions are changed ; the old plantation system has passed away, and free labor maps out a new order of things. There will be, more or less, a division of plantations.— There will be a more productive sys tem of cotton culture, more bountiful crops, and larger cash returns for them. It is not too much to say that the accumulated capital will be liber ally invested in manufacturing enter prises, chief of which will be cotton mills. A tide of immigration south ward and the natural increase of pop ulation will furnish an abundance of labor, not only for plantations, but for the mills. Now, the arts of produc tion are in the rudimentary state, but with that spirit of enterprise which accompanies free labor, higher degrees of skill will be gradually introduced, and there will come a time when the finest fabrics will be produced iu the tuiued throughout the seasou, we will : midst of the plantations where the be surprised ir the supply is not found ' cotton is grown.
