France, Russia, and Prussia are our rivals iu the English m:irkets for bread- 

 stuffs. During the last year, when British crops had returned to the ordinary 

 yield, we could not have access to her markets for the causes just stated. Still 

 greater, with a more intense livalry, do the European nations compete against 

 our tobacco production. We cannot export wool against South America, the 

 Cape of (jrood Hope, and Australia. Aud now our cotton, thought to be king 

 must henceforth encounter rivals, not unvvorihy of regal position, as will be seen 

 from the following table of British imports of cotton during eleven months of 

 ]8G5:
