Contineta were made when cotton was in the neighbourhood of 74. par pound, and contract prices werg Brod on that basis. Naw cotton has come down to 6.4d, and if the drop contiones marit ja expected to, the Chinese, would flad it advantageous to repudiate contmete Wo Lope that better sgase will prevail por, overy case, the revolt has not grown.to such dimensions as to necessitato such stepa at present,
