THE EUROPEAN WAR
The whole of Europe, and indeed' the
entire civilized ‘rorld, is again .agitated
by the terrible tidings of a greakwar.
Franco and Prussia, two of the most.
powerful and warlike nations, aro now
'engaged in a conflict, which may, and
most likely will involve-Cvery European
Tower. What its result may be, it is
impossible to predict. The prowess and
resources of the parties aro so groat;
and their relation to the other Great
Powers of the world so important, that
an entire reconstruction of the political
map of Europe might be made at no dfs
taut day. •
' The cause of the struggle is, unques
tionably, the fears, or the ambition of
the French Emperor, and his movements
in this instance, as in 'every other since
his accession to the throne of Franco; are
dictated by no higlMr . considerations
than self-interest. To achieve a power
equal to that wielded 'by the first NapB
- ,•' to increase the boundaries of the
French Empire, and to perpetuate his
dynasty, are the only objects which em.
ploy his thoughts, or direct his efforts,
To achieve these, he-shrinks from no dif
ficulties, and hesitates at no crimes.
Revolution, usurpiition, and conquest
are all lawful to hini, if they tend to his
aggrandizement. The Crimea, Italy, and
Mexico, have in turn been the field on
which his rapacity has been displayed,
1 1 and now the whole continent trembles
under the advancing? tread of the legions
of this imperial freebootei-.
The pretext for this declaration of war
grew out of the difficulties which have
existed for some time in Spain. On the
fifth of the present month, General Prim
tendered the Spanish crown to Prince
Leopold, who is a distant member of the
royal- home: of Primsia, which he ac
cepted. Napoleon, not desiring Jo be
sandwiched between Spain, under ;t Ger
man K ing, - and the great Prussian King
doe, demanded the withdrawal of the
Prince. This wasz , ceded to, and Leopold
unconditionally gicve lip his aspirations.
The •F'remch Emperor then demanded
that the K ing of Prussia S110111(1 renounce
forever all pretensions to the Spanish
crown on the part of any member of his
family whatever. The King refusiul to
make this guaranty, and declined to hold
any further emmunntgation with the
French. ambassador on the subject.
mediately on the receipt of this informa
tion the Frene,h Government formally
declared war, and
_commenced moving its
immense
.
mrmies to the Mine.

7'114 COTTON SUPPL Y:
Throughout the whole of •the season,
says it recent number of the London
Heron _And --Shippiag —Gazette,— the
standard English authority on the cotton
question, we have invariably expressed
the belief that the American crop,of last
year would be, found to be equal to 8,000,
000 bides,
and 'the present statistical
position of the trade fully justifies' the
assertion. On the other band, the ex
ports of East Indian cotton have been
larger than anticipated, and there is rea
son to believe that at the close of the
season they will not show any consider.
able decrease as compared with last year.
The, position of affairs, 'so far as the
visible supply of cotton, is concerned,
may be reduced to figures in the follow
ing maeiler :
1870. 1889.

On shipboard in Bdinbay Juno 18 147,000 150,000
1 mix') 1,134,00 s
Total bale.
This 'excess in the quantity of cotton
available for consumption in Europe over
,last year will probably further increase.
Already the receipts at the American
ohtports have exceeded the modest esti
mates formed by the trade on this side,
the tdtal to June 18, having been 2,71;0,-
000 bales against 2,020,000 during the
corresponding period last year. Judg
ing from the manner in which the re
ceipts keep up- , particularly at Memphig
—it is not improbable that the largest
-estimate of the crop may be exceeded.
It is, however, not impossible that plan
ters have hurried forward their cotton tco
market in order to take advantage oT
present rates, because a large extra
breadth of land has been placed under
cotton cultivation in the States this sea
son, and there is reason. to 'believe that
the growing crop will considerably ex
ceed the one now being forwarded to,
market. The last few cotton crops have
been very remunerative -to planters, and
every available acre has been placed tin
der cultivation where „the state of the
labor market would allow it. The cry
in the Southern States, of "too much cot,-
tun and too little corn," will prObably
be again heard, and that,- too, at no dis
tant - period. The cultivation of the
former had been pursued to the danger
ous 'exAusion of the latter. 03tit, a COn
sideration quite as important is the fact
that a greatly improved 'system of culti
vation has come pito vogue, and the Crop
is, therefore, less liahle to failure. Fer
tilizers have come into very general use,
and the barbarous custom of sweating
the soil has at length been given up
the yield may, therefore, be anticipated
to lie proportionate to the expenditure
in fertilizers upon flip soil.
The Indian crop has proved to be more
abundant than was expected, and if the
monsoon is - delayed we shall probably
find thaLithe—clefic.,im - mot-e-xceed
-100,000 bales. /The latest advises state
that the cotton *as arriving at Bombay
in - Unexpectedly. large quantities - ; values
were accordingly somewhat depressed,'
mrd it was even believed by some sped__
lators that the results of the season's.,
shipments- w , ould prove equal to last year...
It will be safer, hoWever, to reckon on a
deticiency of from 80,000 to 100,000
bales. Unfortmiately the " mackee,"
or assesAment in lcind, prevents the ryots
from disposing ol' their produce as early
or as readily,as they would otherwise do,

two colored men were whipped and ran
itway.
"The news of this tight was brought
up to the grounds by the two colored
men who had been beaten and by others,
stating that roughs at Marysville were
abusing the colored. people there, and
then, for the first time, a number of the
colored soldiers, not mas than-one-third
of the company, and of whom not more
than she had their';{tptstalcen without
the knowledge of the officers—and not one of 'which was loaded, loft the grounds
and went doivil• to Marysville. At no
time was there more 'than one-third of
the company away ..from tho picnic
• groands ;. and those who went to Marys
'Alto went therefto protect the colored
_people, if possible, by stopping, the (mar
.rel, and not to create a riot. •
"Returning home, the companydWas
formed at the picnic grounds.depot,,and
marched. into the rear car. Passing
'through Marysville,stones were thrown

both sides of the; road, injuring several
of the colored people: No shot was 113-
turned by any member of the corn
nor WAS a shot firedfrom the car contain
