Quest! on.

j n? Kwppiy qi couop to our manutncturera
involve^ consideration of tlie
highest importance to thja country, end
wo rejoice to find that so eminent a
person a*.Lord Brougham la about tip
enforce that view of it which- we have
long taken. Our American brethren
accuse ua of imcomplicity in the slavery
ays tent! because, from the.necessities of
our position, ' we ufe the largest consumers
of its produce. They- might as
well accuse us of destoying the shoals
of sprn's consumed by the codfish we
eat. We lisp their^ cotton because we
cannot do without it. We have no
choice. We are innocent, because, if
accomplices,-we are involuntary ones.??.
JI i? all very w?lf to expatiate in theMtb
lime altitudes of. abstract principle,
hut human necessities must aim* lrav"e
their share of attention i arid, therefore,
we especially rejoice that one, whose
philanthropy jftnd hittred of"slavery nope
can doubt, has delermined to" bring die
English view of tList subject prominently
forward, and claim attention for fi.~
The*Euglish aversion" to slavery i< well
known. We caunot allow the poor sable
creature to exhaust all our sympathies ;
and when we hear foolish, well mean^
ing people, whose minds seem incapable
of receiving uiore than-one idea. eVu)t
in tlio hope of a slnvo insurrection
? which wolihl put and end to the
production of cotton in America?wo
can but" wonder at ihestrauee Mifatuation
that i?revon!< their seeir.rj-how it
wc ulJ affect us. Statesmen and trader?,
peers and mechanics, seem to be nit
alike. It is time this blindness and delusion
cease. It is ihn possible to reflect
seriously upon lue nntyne-of our cotton
supply, Without evoking a phantom that
no exorcism will banish. It seizes and
transports-us to soma extensive Jtown,
whose tall chimneys are visible in every
direction ; but there is .qo crowd in
the slteets; no Hiill* door or *|><>p is
open. There arc no issujyig clouds of
smoke? not one ptffsaiion ofdhe iron
giants is heard?no whirling of the spindle?no
throwing of the slmltle^no
clanking of the loom?no hnrn of human
voices?not one sound of'human
life. Ibis unearth!/ stillness chills oat
blood. Where,_ then, are, those five
hundred thousand busy, intelligent liu-.
man beings that should people it f We.
enter an oj>en house; we penetrate
room after room; and, -impelled from
street to street', we find everywhere living
skeletons, ami a voiceless misery of

But could it he that any of otit great
mnnufnct ruing town* should- evet present
Bucli a spectacle! Are we. then,
so dependent on American cotton f At
present it is but too tru*. America
supplies nearly three fourths, of our tot
ton, and therefore the greatest danger
that eon. threaten this country at. the
present lime is a sudden cessation of the
svpphj of cotton from America. The
Fiench Emperor of (he'ohi Indie*, with,
all his dreadful fleet* and . hrmies, is a
pet lamb in cornparieon with such an
event, At? enormou* amount*of British
capital. and the h'vea of mil Hon* of
British people, depend-on our cotton sim
ply being constant and adequate. We
na? e no desire to create any unnecessary
alarm ; hut where the national safety t*
concerned, every possible danger for
which a remedy may be.fbnm] ought to
be treated as If it were a |>n.b:?b!e danger,
in order to stimulate the procuring
of that remedy. To show that there h*
no exaggerntion in our stati-mopi, we
anneal ?o the fbllowiwir unimpeachable
facts : Of 628.00f> tons cotton wool

So much for goods and mon^; imJ
what as regards human life! Jfhsrly

adding largely every rear to the national
wealth, weuld he plunged into the lowest
abyss of misery by the failure of the
American cotton supply,*; should this
happen before some palliative or substi
tute is found. And po say 1t Is impov
srote, adequately, - to estimate the awful
calamity of such ;a failure of supply.-?
Why, fifty Gladstone* rolled- into cute
Cliancrtfor of the Exchequer would find
if dificult to make both ends meet. Talk
of income lax, we should want one of tun
shillings in the pound, and with nothing
coming in (o assist realized'property "in
paying it. This view" uf it is bad
enough ; hut that of the immense mass
of misery, suffering, frightful death and
social confusion it would produce, is
worse still. Passions would become in-'
flamed?the maddened people would
'strike right and It-fl in their fury ; imaginary
grievance* would be elevated to
thd first rank of realities ; and whatever
else might be saved from the vorfext. it
is quite certnjtv-th&t all the artificial
distinctions of society would vanish
like a dream.*
It is not with us a question of slave
or free labor, hut of a secure supply.?
We ought not to depend so murh on
one source, no matter where, for an ar
tide so vitally important to hp. We
have had potrfto Might; there lias been
a destrpcive vine disease. -Suppose the
cotton plant in America similarly attack
ed. The awful evil we deprecate would
not depend at all on linman agency.?
Corn supplied the deficiency when the
potato perished ; hut wo hiive' no snb
stitute for Arnericnh cotton. 'We hop*
no evil will happen to it ; but only fooli
trust in hope alone. Surety something
may be done to lesson our dinger.-?;
There i* a remedy'for almost every evil;
This cotton has so spread its net over
in* l>?r.d thti institution, no interest |
no social distinction, not- one human
being is free from its meshes. In bring;
ing us greit prosperity, it has caught
us all in its toil".
VVe hope, too. that ns the vigorous
mind of Lord Hrougham, has applied
itself to this question, there w ill he such
a discussion of it. both at Manchester1
and in the House of Lords, as shall lead
to practical results. No (titling impediment
ought to prevent immediate
and vigorous actum. Cotton we moat
have ; and the national rnfoiests Remand
that the supply ahouhl he adequate aud
rertaj.ii. Even the Americans desire we
should have other large sources of supply,
as it would impart more steaditu-cs
to the market, would, prevent (hose fluctuations
to which it is rtow subject, and
would keep a large nnml?er of looms
steadily at woik tvjrilo America, from
rosources and position, moat alvvavs hold
the c mtnand of our market. And rye
.have full confidence that the aetivjtv of
the llritiah looms will always prevent
any injurious accumulation*, Nor h

Visit to Anderson. <

Tlie corn crop, particularly, In Anderson
