M i i England and tho Cotton Trade. All parlies in England seem at present to bo impr^sed with tho necessity of relieving that ? country from its dependence upon the United States for a supply of cotton ; but tlicy differ ntnong themselves as to the best means of effec- ' tuat.ing that object. One party proposes to revive tlie Slave trade, tinder tlie nanio of the S' apprentice system, and by means of the labor thus secured to rnifio sugar an'd cotton in the 1 West Indies; and another parly urges tlio necessity of renewed effort in British India. But even admitting the practicability of the measure, which after nil is a mere chimera of overexcited enthusiasts, its policy is entirely questionable. The effect of its adoption, would be to deprive the English manufacturer of his best customers, who liavo no means otherwise ' of purchasing the manufactured fabrics, than by the sale of tho great staple; and would probably lead to the establishment of nmnufactories capable of successfully competing with thqsc of England herself. Those nre the positions assured by the Baltimore-Sun iu the following extract: For in the first place, if Grcijt Bcitain alrurfd sueecofl in growing.cotton in her* own/duN^ ions to nn extent to all'cet the planter* df theSouth, she would immediately, lose the best foreign customer she has, that is", these United States. No principle is now better established than that traite cannot long be continued, if all k on one side. The old idea that one country . will take the products from another, year after year, when that country buys nothing ir. retnm, has long been exploded as absurd. We Americans are able to purchase such enormous . quantities of foreign goods because our cotton crops keep the balanco of trade generally even. It civcs us so manv millions r>v??r\r turning twelve month to Garter for the manufactured fabrics and other luxuries of Europe. Let Great Britain decline to purchase our cot' l.oit, and-wc nhnll soon be unablo to buy theso > luxuries. Wc already export ns much specie as we can aflfjrd. To do much more wowld ruin us in very few years. Even, therefore, if wu wished to continue importing foreign fabrics, 1 \ve could not long persist in it,, after Europe ccascd to take our cotton crop ; for we should ! very 6oon firfd that we could not pay, being without products that she would accept, and having no gold or silver left to export. We all live, nations as well as men, by giving and receiving; in a wor<l, by exchanging that of which we have a surplus for that in which we are deficient If we have nothing to barter with, we must go without?the beggar without his loaf, the nation without iU luxuries. in Luc second piacc, II ureal liriLain should ever bo ablfcAo refuse our cotton, tlie result would be to build up American mnnufacturcs, so that in tlio end, they would be able to compete successfully with those of England everywhoreson the globe. Our cotton planters, if Manchester declines to-buy of them, must, in self-protection, find n market elsewhere. They i cannot afford to let their Holds lie idle, their I servants eat tip their substance, their wives and families sink into poverty and distress. They will cither establish cotton-mills at the South themselves, or hold out inducements to (lie North to tnko all tlicir crop.. The industry, enterprise,'skill and capital of this country needs only Buch a state of atTuirs to mnkg .V UIIU givww iiMiiuiuvbuilug CVI1VIU UI HI 15 WUI'IU. Before long Eliglnnd would 'fiafljjrthe United States underselling her in Asia, Africa. South * America; o ven in Europo 'itaclf. Her Man. clicster would begin to decline. - English operatives would flock to our shores- to And the , employment which had deserted them at lionjo, wfl thns another element would bo addi. <kj to our prosperity, another subtracted from that of Great iirstnin. The South would buy ^e North would make those finer fabrics which Europe now principally furnishes. This condition of things would have tho advantage, too, of kocping the , wealth of America iyithin itself. It will bo a ; good thing for republic, therefore, if Great Britain succeeds in rnininrr n.nt.fnn V It.(nny b?e4did that it Will talfe timo to adapt ourselves to.these changes; andU>at, in the ini. wcmiay bo ruined. But so also will it v take time for Great Brtlainlo grow cotton for herself. If, everyyear, nslior India plantations extend, she "buys less c<ttton from tlie Soatli, so every year, as the North has more cotton ofl3fcd.hcrf/wil^}i^Iorth build more mills. American'cnterptfjH'as the past .has showri^iWtil keep even nfcc<?*r?th Eni/lish nvid ity. By the time Great Britain is a&lo to do witliont our cotton, wo elin.ll be able not only to do without Iter manufactures, but to undersell her in every market in tuo world. The game which she proposes isondhftt which two eon piny ; nn(J with ^ur superior skill we can bent her at|i)layin^it. At present sho has : one, and otil^one, advantage over us, which is that capital is inore ^plentiful on.lice Bourse than ours. But ooe.of the effects of this sche?9 will be to equalize us in this particular, and as we excel her in all othor respects we shall soon have her in opr.pdSver.

Caught nv Sharpers. ?A Dr. , of Washington, ft gentleman who supposed himself posted in nil Boris of harp practice, was silting, a day or two Bincc, reading the pnper nt his hotel in thiscitj', when ii well-dressed and good-looking stranger, who lind also .Hat reading a newpaper near him for in hour, finished -his news-hunting, dropped the pnper, yawned and stretched himself, and Lhrow up his arms, and straightened out his legs, and said to the doctor, by way of .on introduction, "we have some very hot days now." Our friend sawbones looked over his glasses, and surveying the gentlemanly stranger as one would a bank bill never before seen, mentally pronoij;ioed him "all right," and replied, "we had. indued, but nftcr all, not nuilc so warm ns in Washington, where he made it his home." The gentlemanly stranger stated lie was from Lite South also, and was happy to meet a syatlifrrner,'' lie "wiw lierc purchasing goods," lie "had been very busy?no time even to look about tlic city"?but hi* "maxim ever was business first, pleasure nfterwnrds." Our frieml, the Washington Jl. ]>., wan delighted to find so pleasant a companion, and was pursuaded to walk up town with his new friend, who had a little hill to settle of seventy dollars, the closing up of liiit purchases. Our M. IX, took tlio walk?and tlicy sauntered up Broadway?but his polite new ncrpiaintance hardly knew anything of the lions of the city?lie had been so busy he could not lind them out. Presently they arrived somewhere near No. 460?it was about here lie owed his bill?but a stranger gels so confused in this noisy city! As our M. 1)., and his friend were breaking their necks in looking up to rend the signs, a gentleman bobbed out of one of the stores with his hat off. "Ah, niv denr sir," said the friend of mir M D., "I wns trying to find your place?I will settle that little affair." lie pulled out four twenties ntul handed the new comer. This last genius could not make the changej the friend of our M. IX, was CerpleXed; he turned his pockets inside out, ut had nothing but tho four twenties?he owed just seventy.

In these eases the Republicans n<lmit that the Democratic candidates lintl tlio largest number of votes, but claim nevertheless that they were not clcetcd, .because t.lio ballotsrdid not specify whether tlio candidates voted for, wcro Council members or Representative members.

A Mas Mistaken roit a Woman?Ante-mortkxi Examination.?Sonic tim? ago, it wjll be remembered, a singular case enmo up in the Richmond, Vn., Courts, in whMra young man named Lipscomb sued another young man named Thns.

The case created no littlo excitement in Richmond. An examination l?y five cfcporienced physicians was ordered by tho court, so that there should be nojiosibility of mistake, and they reported tlmtljnton was undoubtedly a man.; .10 Lipscomb lust both liis ladyo-Iove and his la-wsu it. Linton lias recently arrived in this citj*, nnd such was his womanish appearance tlint suspieion was created as to his eox, and tho Guards were About to arrest him, and would havqdone so out fur .the intcrfcroncqof a,person who knew the young man. Last uight Linton again got into trouble, through falling into the hand* of a party of young mon who believed him to be-, sailling under falso colons and were about to' have an examination to test tho matter. A gentleman cognisant of tho history of Linton happened to bo present, and upon his representation Lintou was set free. Washington Star.
