The Democrat. Office Up-Stuin on the Corner of the Public Square, Granite How Cotton Trade of the World. 3Ir. Ott Trumpler, of Zurich, has issued his annual circular, containing complete statistics of the Cotton traje pf the woi Jd during the commercial year ending Septem ber 30, 1871. This document, the most com plete compiled anywhere in the world, pos sesses unusual interest at the present time, as the past year has been a very extraordi nary one in the cottpn trade, and the ex act position of the staple is yet a matter of doubt. The consumption of cottoi) in Europe dur ing the year vas. 5,208,000 bales, compared -with 4,387,000 bales the year before, 4,503, 009 the previous year, and 4,388,000 bales in 18G0-'o-J. Of this America furnished 2, 844,000 bajes, India 1,201,000, JJrazil 519, 000, Egypt 337,000, and other countries 277, 000 bales. Tlje increase during the year was 707,000 bales, the supply from America exceeding that of 18G0-7O by f-03,000 bales, and that of Egypt and Brazil together by 130,000, while the supply from India full ott 210,000 bales. These figures do not include the re ceipts at the ports of Spain, Sweden and Russia direct from producing countries. The United States shipped to liussia during the year 187,000 bale:s, and she also receiv ed a small quantity direct from the Levant nd from India. The quantity of cotton actually spun is Pet down in the circular at 4,7G,O00 hales. The total imports were 5,270,000 bales, and the stock October 1, 1H70, was 750 000 bales. iIr. Trumpler, therefore, est imates the stock now held by spinners to he 500,000 bales; hence the consumption of Europe was 101, 308 bales, compared with rt4,:'.G5 the year before, 80,500 in 180.S-D, and 80,000 in 18G0-01. It will, therefore, appear that the quantity of cotton taken from consumption during 1870-71 is the largest on record. Expressed in pounds, the quantity consumed lor a series ol years were as follows: Pounds. 1859-G0 1865-00 1800-07 1807- 08 1 808- 09 1809- 70 lb7o-71 1,750,000,000 1,430,000,000 1,539,000,000 1,070,000,000 1,599,000,000 1,040,000,000 2,033,000,000 Europe's supply of cotton was increased, n pounds by 24 per cent last year. Of the total consumed, America furnish ed 00 per cent., India 25 per cent., and other countries 17 per cent. The consump tion of American cotton in Europe in 1800 j was 3,433,000 bales, out of a total of 4,388,000 so that the total" product of the staple at that time, outside of the United States, was only 835 bales. During the year under review these competing produ cers furnished Europe with no less than 4,414,000 bales, or more than two and a half times as much as befoiv the American war. The statistical) is also of opinion that present prices are not low eno'tgh to curtail hc production of any of the-e countries. On the contrary, the South Las curtailed her planting this season, whil : in the acre age put under cotton in Indj i, Jirazil and Egypt remains about the sai'.e. India has felt our competition more than any other country, for, while she furnished to Europe in 1808-09 1,703,000 bales of cotton, in the following year she could on ly contribute 1,457,000, and last year only 1,291,000. Brazil has also fallen from 708, p0 jn 1867-8 to 519,000 last year. Egypt, liotyeyer, gteadijy increases her production, and it$ superior qualities enables her to corn-: pete with the best Orleans staple. The average price for fair Egyptian' during the last. year in Liverpool was 83d., while the average price for Middling Orleans was only 8d., and of fair Dhollcrah 71. She produced last year 337,000 bales but as these bajes weigh 500 lbs., they are equal tq half a million bales of India cotton. The climate and soil of Egypt are peculiarly adapter tp cotton growing, and as it is a country that can produce a grade of the staple that is necessary for tine goods, Great Britiau will do everything in her power to remove existing difficulties and Assist its ambitious rule to school his people in the production of this staple to the exclu sion qf everything fcl$e. The Military Arrests in York. From the Yorkville Enquirer, Nov. 10th.

If this shall be done, I believe that our triumph will be certain, and surely all should unite in labor to that end who value the Constitution of the nation, a-nd know tlje worth of political and civil liberty."

The burglar enter ed the dining-room by cutting a slat from the window-blind and raising the sash. Mr. Pridgen's sleeping apartment adjoining the dining-room, the door of which was left un locked contained the trunk where he kept his money. The trunk contained about $2,600, two thousand of which were in a small box, also two gold watches and a sil ver watch, which escaped the notice of the burglar. A negro man by the name of John Bright had been hanging on about town in a very suspicious manner, and left for Wilmington on the morning of the rob bery. Mr. P. did not discover his loss un til after the train had left. As soon as Mr. P. discovered he had been robbed he tele graphed to the sheriff of Goldsboro' to ar rest Bright, which he did lodging him in jail with several other prisoners he was brought down to Kinston the following day, but no inoney was found on his person. Af ter searching Bright, and no evidence of his guilt being brought to light, he was imme diately released. The strangest part of the matter was that Mr. Pridgen was sleeping in the room with the lamp burning brightly on the mantel. The supposition is that drugs were used to produce a stupor. -Haiti yh Sentinel. Davie County. This county settled up with the Treasurer yesterday. Tax Collec I tor Mr J. M.

In many portions of Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, and Minnesota, corn is offered in the cribs at from ten to fifteen cents a bushel. In Illinois and Kentucky the yield has been beyond all precedent. The Wheat crop has also been very large. In Europe, on the contrary, there appears to have been a heavy deficit in the grafu harvests in nearly all countries. In Eng land the general falling off has been various ly estimated at from fifteen to twenty per cent. ; while in Hungary, the Danubian Principalities, portions of Austria, and in Southern Russia all countries that have usually exported large quantities of grain there has been a great decrease from the average production. The ravages of the potato rot and the cattle in Great Britain will increase the demand for grain and ani mal food, and the United States will be able to supply both in any quantity at reason able prices, as cheap bacon and pork, articles extensively consumed everywhere, are the natural consequences of cheap corn. ill B Gov. Bullock's Transactions in Geok c.ia. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, writing from Atlanta, Ga., about the resignation of Gov. Bullock, says this official got himself in a pretty scrape by issuing 5,000,000 of bonds to II. J. Kim ball and others, which bonds belonged to the Macon and Brunswick road. Kimball ran short of bonds and got the Governor to over-issue the amount of bonds due him, so that he could hypothecate them. This he did in New York for an advance of sixty cents on the dollar. When the time came to redeem them Kimball failed and could not do it; Bullock could not raise the funds, and his friends woidd not ; so, as the Legis lature was about to meet, he wrote his re signation to avoid impeachment, well know ing an expose would be made of the matter. Dr. Angler, the State Treasurer, says Bul lock has issued 3,000,000 of State bonds in some way, nobody knows how. He charges him with great recklessness and extrava gance in the appropriation of the State's finances. Cotton Crop.

'YOUJfQ & COCHRANE, Oct 23, 1871. Agents. 3)T?C3 The Ferment in England. Some weeks ago Disraeli asserted iu a public speech that Queen Victoria is notably "physically and morally" incapable of attending to her duties as the sovereign of a great kingdom. This Avas tortured into a charge that she is insane. Some of the lead ing men of England insist that she is in this condition, and the London correspondent of the New York World Avrites on the 28th ult. as follows: The royal family has held a council and asked Queen Victoria to consent to the marriage of the Duke of Edinburg to a Russian princess, and also to tUa establishment of a regency unJer the Prince of Wales. The Queen at once and indignantly re fused to consent to the latter portion of the arrange ment Her Majesty subsequently refused to sign the public papers laid before ber by the Ministers. The Cabinet at its meeting discussed the question of regency. A proposal was also made to obviate the difficulty which would be caused by the Queen's refusal to sign the public documents by authorizing the Lord Chancellor to perform .that duty for the present. There seems to be little doubt that the health of the Queen is good, and all efforts to get her to re-enter society having failed, the attempt has been made to get her to ab dicate, or at least consent to a regency un der the Prince of Wales, Avho Avill be King some day, if he lives. That she has flatly refused to do. And now an effort is being made to bring about a revolution Avhich will change the nature of the government. 31r Bradlaugh, who appears to be the leader of this movement, made a speech recently to the Avorkiugmen of London, in which he boldly took the ground that the Queen is insane, and demanded the appointment of a commission to determine the fact. In the event the commission should declare the Queen's incapacity for duty, he declared that it is the interest of the people to put the regency in commission. Air Bradlaugh is spoken of as "the coming Cromwell." His plans and purposes are set forth in the following extract from a report of an inter view the New York World's correspondent recently had with him: "Suppose the Queen is officially declared incapa ble, by reason of mental alienation, of longer exer cising the duties of her oihee. You know the truth about the condition of the. Queen, 1 presume, and that this announcement may be made at any mo ment. I hope it may not come till 187G; but if it comes now we shall act with promptness." "But how V" "She is the last monarch who shall sit on Eng land's throne. There must be no regency. The Republic must be proclaimed. Now, this revolu tion need not be a violent one. Parliament is all powerful ; what one Parliament has done another may undo. The reigning family holds the throne, not by what is called 'divine right,' but by virtue of an act of Parliament. We shall insist that this act shall be repealed and the Republic set up." "But should Parliament refuse?" "Then Ave must fight for it ! I deprecate such an issue. I deny the right to inaugurate revolution by force. But the Monarchy must end, and the Repub lic must be set up. I shall not strike the first blow, but if it comes to blows I shall be certain to strike the last. If the crisis is deferred for five years the revolution may be a bloodless one at its commence ment ; if it comes now it will be a blood jr one, and of its outcome I cannot be certain, for, I repeat again, I am not strong enough, 1 fear, to build up and maintain a government. But we must never allow the Prince of AVales to be either regent or king. The crisis may come in another way. The country may be asked to pay his debts, and this de mand must be resisted." "Is he in debt V" "He owes about a million. Some j'ears ago, when I was doing business in the city, I was en gaged in negotiating a loan for Portugal. I was about to obtain the money at 14 per cent., when the lenders informed me that they could lend 250, 000 to the Prince of Wales at 18 per cent., and pre ferred that investment." What is to be the result of these agi tations a few Aveeks will probably deter mine. China, Glass and Earthen Ware, AT CHINA HALL, Near the Court House, Charlotte K. C.
