The low price of ita great Btaplo, the lowest price in thirty years, and tho cessation of that i up our of new money iulotho south which hud been going on continuously for six or Boven years up tolast are hurting badly. Tho Liverpool manufacturing trade, whicl: haa BO important bearing on southern pros- parity, is in a Tory bad way, and whilo up to tills time the troubles in England havo been confined to tho financial houses in London, the noit point whore thorp is likely to bo trouble is in tho commercial and industrial centers of Liverpool and Manchester, consequently southern companies ore likely to havo hard grubbing iu tho next- your or so to uialco both ends meet.

Mnch lias hccn aaid about last week's article, particularly in tl'O Boston press, but no one has attempted to dispute tho corrcclric.ss of tho figures therein given.
