supply from India should be equal in quantity to the demand. This every man who ever examined the subject knows to be impossible. The State of Georgia alone, a few years since, produced more cotton than was furnished to the manufactories of Great Britain from all other sources than this Confederacy. The question is a very simple one, and the time is coming when it must be faced. Shuffling and equivocation will not do longer than the beginning of next summer. Great Britain must then have ouGreat Britain must then have our cotton, or undergo a revolution based upon the want of the common necessaries of life. The people must have it, or must starve, or must rise upon the Government. Lord Palmerston knows this as well as anybody; but the Yankees seem to have persuaded him that they will open the ports and send the cotton.

That the President of the Uve passed between this Government and the Government of Great Britain, or between the Government or any of its functionaries,atal act in the surrender, upon the imperious demand of Great Britain, the persons, Mason and Slidell, who were seized on boaeen won by the Revolution. It would make us vassals of Great Britain. We should lose the respect of foreign nations, and bepreserve peace, if it could be done with honor. But if Great Britain had demanded the surrender of these prisoners, he wouldto abide by an arbitration of the question. But if Great Britain had made this demand, it was because she was predetermi
