A writer in the New York Bulletin says on this p jint: If war really begins between England and Russia, it will be a desperate straggle into which all Europe is likely to be drawn,and the two greatest cotton competitors of America Egypt and India will both become necessarily invoked to an extent which will certainly cripple their producing capacity in cotton. Egypt will be forced by both Turkey and England, to keep her contingents to their full, and beyond. There is another consideration to be weighed. The price of cotton is subordinate in Europe to the price of breadstuffs. There is a great deficiency in grain in Europe. Russia usually furnishes from the Black Sea the bulk of the grain needed in Western Europe. This year she is short herself, and cannot spare any portion of her crop in case of war. England will need near 100,000,000 bushels of grain for her own deficiency, and other States will need nearly 20,000,000 more. This condition of things in the bread market would seriously affect the price of cotton were it not for the fortunate circumstance that there is a very large surplus in this country already moving towards England' at unusually low rates. This country will be able to supply the grain at a rate that will not take from the consumer hit ability to pur chase the past due supply of needed clothing. Still another point needs to be considered in relation to cotton. Gold and cotton in this country travel paripastui when gold is up cotton is up, which is simply a question of exchange. 1 here is a limit to this, however, and an active state of hos tilities may bring about a wide modi fication. During the Crimean war there was a terrific gold screw in Europe. Gold was required in all army disbursements, and it was much scarcer than now. It must not be forgotten that in August, the Bank of France held $400,000,000 of gold; The Bank ef England, and-thBank ot Germany, ver $140,000,000 This enormous provision of old is in addition to that held in other banks and private hands. There is not, therefore, likely to be a gold screw for some time to pome in case of war. Taking it all ib all, cotton iheuld not be greatly depressed. - The continent is big enough tor both of us, and though separated 'rom each other, as it is certain we must be, we shall still be able to stand against Europe as one power, in holy and de fensive allianoe.'
