no resemblance to those to which they were originally devoted. No man is so famous for this manner of using the Old Testament as Beecher. The whole energies of his mind are devoted to the inculcation of blood and slaughter, and as his doctrine cannot be found in the New Testament, he rejects that portion of the Sacred Writings, virtually, if not directly.

As to the demand, it is sufficient to observe that in 1860 the manufacturers on both sides of the Atlantic apparently used up 6,000,000 --really but 4,500,000--that is, only the latter quantity was taken by people using and wearing cotton goods, Supposing the wants of the world to be what they were four years ago, and deducting 300,000 bales that
