      A BRITISH MINE OF REAL WEALTH . Mr . Ferrand ' s " Wool and Flax League " involves a sound idea . There can bo no measures of more primary and permanent importance , than the profitable development and application of the latent resources of your own soil , and the means of increasing remunerative employment for our industrial population . A brisk and healthy Home Market must always , from its very nature , be more advantageous to all classes than any amount of Foreign Trade ; and the true policy of a wise Government would be to make the one , in all cases , secondary and subsidiary to the other . The sudden rise , and equally sudden fal ) of all states that have depended mainly upon commerce for their wealth and greatness , is the best practical illustration of the folly . of the opposite course .

      Indeed this country appeared as if it would speedily add another to the list of these illustrations . Within the last half century an enormous and unparalleled trade has grown up among us , resting entirely upon the supply of a material grown in far distant regions . To promote the success of that trade , and avocations connected with it , the whole commercial and fiscal policy of the country has been

      gradually altered and adapted by successive statesmen ! Manufactures asumed the supremacy , and the tables of Exports and Imports became of much more importance in the eyes of our rulers , than the condition of the people . It is , to be sure , assumed , that when Exports and Imports are large , the other must necessarily be of a satisfactory nature ; but that is a mistake which needs uo

      rectification to those who are practically conversant with the workings of our present system . How often large Exports are made at ruinous prices , which leave neither living wages to the workman , nor fair profit to the employer , in order to force sales , we need not say . How often a large portion of our boasted Imports merely go to add to the already numerous conveniencies and luxuries of the wealth y classes , is equally evident . The stream of riches flows far away from the dwellings of the poorbecause industrious classes . They may see , but they taste them not .

      Feverish , fluctuating , and partial , however , as was the prosperity produced by our manufacturing and commercial system , the system itself bad grown to be , in the meantime , one of the natural necessities . Millions of capital were embarked in mills and machinery . Millions of individuals , directly and indirectly , depended upon the supply of cotton for a subsistence . Hence it was , with no small degree of alarm , that reflective men looked to the impending danger of the supply of that material being cut off , or bo materially diminished as to be inadequate to supply the wants of the population hitherto employed in working it up . This danger arose from two causes—one

      accidental , the other essential . The last cotton crop was an exceedingly bad one , and , in consequence of the defective supply , prices had risen to such a height as to check purchases , except under strong compulsion . The present year ' s crop , it is now understood , will be at least equally scanty , so that a short supply and high prices must be the rule for some time to come , from this causo alone . If , however , the occasional failure of the cotton crop was all that had to be feared or endured , it is clear that the evil , however severe , could only bo temporary in its durations . With more favourable seasons , more plentiful supplies would have been poured in , and the wheels of our gigantic manufacturing machinery once more set in

      motion . But a more serious danger menaced us in the growing demand for American cotton by American manufacturers . They do not see any reason why they should not work up into textile fabrics the raw produce of their own States , and sell them to other nations , as well as England , No more do we . It is very natural , and very proper . Nay , more , if they can manufacture it in the midst of the very plantation whero it is grown , so much the tetter , because the finished fabric will be

      produced all . the cheaper , and cheapness being the sine qua wok of the agoi they will achieve the high destiny of driving everybody else out of the markets of the world . But what is to become of us if this takes place ? If , instead of sending us raw cotton to be spun and woven into shirts and dresses for people in every quar » ter of the globe , they keep the cotton to themselves , and supply our old customers , what are we to do ? A grave and serious question . Manchester set about answering it in its own way . First it tried to persuade Government to send out a commission to see what could be

      done for procuring a supply of the raw material from British India . After careful inquiries as to the various places from whence a supply could be drawn , Manchester came to the conclusion that British India was the only place , But Government refused to be at the expense or trouble of doing this . ; Accordingl y , Manchester has "taken both upon herself , and , by a subscription of some three thousand pounds , has sent a Commissioner of its own to spend two years in India , with his note-book and pencils .

      When he returns with the information he has collected , what then ? All the political and material obstacles he may discover will have to be overcome , and that will be a task of no slight difficulty and duration . Many , very many years , will certainl y elapBe

      before Indian can aupply the place of American Cotton ; and when it does , we shall find ourselvea driven to desperate and direct competition , with a powerful , energetic , and acute rival , who finds the cotton at his own door , while we shall have to draw our supplies from the remote provinces of a Continent many thousand miles distant . Truly , we see no very cheering prospect in all this . Even if Manchester succeeds in all it proposes to do , it will fall short of the requirements of the age—work , wages , and comfort for the toiling millions !

      But while Manchester , as usual , has been looking abroad for the means of meeting immediate , and averting remote difficulties , we are happy to learn that wiser people liave had the common sense to look at home . They have been richly rewarded for doing so . If we are to credit the Morning Gkronicle , a series of discoveries have been made and perfected , which , in the moBt ample and satisfactory manner , meet the exigencies of our present position . Not only do they supply an immediate and adequate stock of raw material to the British manufacturer , but , provide at the same time , a profitable occupation to the

      agricultural interest , which is suffering under such deep depression from the recent commercial policy of the Legislature , For the first time in actual life , it appears that manufactures and agriculture are to g ive and receive mutual support and strength . The old game of see-saw , one up and another dow * h , is to cease . The boast of the manufacturing towns , that they are in a high state of prosperity , is no longer to be answered by the wail of misery from the agricultural districts , and visa versa . At last the prosperity of both are to be truly identified , and labour , both in town and country , is to be set in motion , profitably for all parties .

      If all these promises should be realised , it will mark one of the most important eras in our history . In order that our readers may judge of the probability of their being so ,, we will condense the detailed statement of our contemporary on the subject . It is stated , firstly , that a new mode of preparing flax for the manufacturers has been discovered , by which the dilatory , costly , and wasteful process of steeping is altogether avoided . The present method of preparing the plant for use , whether according to the ordinary mode , or under Shenck ' s patent system of steeping in hot water , involves a serious loss of time and labour , and is very detrimental to the quality of the fibre . The flax receives

      various impurities , which have afterwards to bo removed by the no less tedious and pernicious operation of bleaching ; . and the consequence is , that , by the time it reaches the manufacturer ' s hands , it is both enhanced in cost , and deteriorated in strength and substantial value . This formidable hindrance to flax manufacture , it is stated , is now completely removed . By the simple and ingenious invention spoken of , steeping is entirely dispensed with , and no chemical agents being employed in the process , the fibre is handed over to the spinner in a perfectly natural and unimpaired condition , free from dirt and discolouration , and retaining all those oleaginous properties on which its strength so much depends .

      That is step the first in these discoveries , and is invented by Mr . Donlan . The next , invented by Chevalier P . Claussen , is more extraordinary and more important . He has obviated one of the main obstacles to the extended use of linen fabrics—namely , their cold feel , and has succeeded in manufacturing the uusteeped flax into various descz-ipfcions of material , which possess respectively all the warmth of wool , the softness of cotton , and the glossiness of silk ! * * and which , " adds the Chronicle , " so closely resemble these several fabrics , both

      to the eye and the touch , that we should neither credit the fact ourselves , nor task the faith of our readers by the assertion , had we not before us actual samples of the result produced , exhibiting , in one and the same bundle of fibres , the raw flax at one end , and the quasisilk or cotton at the other . '' The cost of converting unsteeped flax into " cotton " is only seven-sixteenths of a penny per pound , and the difference between the price of the flax when thus prepared , and that of raw cotton , is estimated as being from one-third to onehalf in favour of the former .

      The crowning discovery has still to be mentioned . Many admirable inventions are either lost altogether for practical purposes , or are but slowly adopted in general use , because they require a totally different kind of machinery from that which exists for producing the articles . When we think of the immense capital sunk in the mills , factories , and workshops connected with our present cotton and silk manufactures , it isobviousj that if the new material had required new machinery , it would have interposed a formidable , if not insurmountable , obstacle to its general use . But it has been happily ascertained , that the existing machinery of oar cotton mills is adapted to the new material . The same invention

      which dispenses with the steeping , render the flax suitable for a process which adapts it to the present machinery . The inventor took a quantity of his "flax cotton" to Manchester , placed it in the hands of a spinner , and the spindles , it is stated , took to it as kindly as if it and they had been made expressl y for each other . We observe , by the Chronicle of Wednesday , that Chevalier Claussen again proceeded to Manchester on Tuesday night , with introductions to the Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce , and Messrs . Ashwortii and Shuttleworth , extensive manufacturers , for the purpose of testing the matter still farther , by carrying out , upon a large scale , a series of experiments , with respect to the adaptation of flax to the cotton machinery .

      Should these experiments terminate successfully , and the other inventions turn out to be in extended practice what they aro described to be in experiments , it is impossible to exaggerate their importance , and their beneficial bearing atthe present moment . The doubt and anxieties as to the source from whence our manufacturers may , in future , draw their supplies of raw material , will be at once dispelled : while , at the same time , a new and highlyprofitable occupation will be opened up to our agricultural population . The principle of Mr . Ferrasd ' s Loaguo will have triumphed , though without that gentleman ' s hatred to the "blood-stained cotton " system .

      The extent and value of the market which will be opened to our agriculturists may bo judged of from the fact that , even with our limited linen manufactures , we import upwards of eight millions' worth yearly of foreign flax . The substitution of flax for cotton will , of course , enormously incrcaso tho demand , and the experience of Mr . Warnes , at Trimingham , in Norfolk , demonstrates the numerous pecuniary and social advantages to be derived from cultivating this crop . The results of that experience for many years may bo summed up aB rendering the farmer independent of foreign cattle , food , and manure ; ensuring the

      maintenance upon the same space of double or treble the number of cattle usually kept ; the keeping of the land in a profitable state of cultivation , and preventing the possibility of its deterioration . In addition to this , its effects are to be traced in the increased employment and wages of persons of both sexes , and all ages the promotion of « ihdustry , frugality , and contentment ; a reduction of poor rates and diminution of crime , and an i ncreased consumption of articles of food and clothing In addition to the £ 8 , 000 , 000 worth of

      POLICE ESPIONAGE . We know not whether our Police authorities mean to introduce into this country the system of M . Carlier or not , but an occurrence this week appears as though they meditated some , thing of the aort . Now , having no desire to besubjected to a Republican regime like that existing in b ranee , we have to request of Sir George Grey and his Police subordinates , that they will leave us in possession of our com tnon and well established rights as Englishmen There is , as far as we know , no law whatever '

      at the present tune , that empowers them to establish a . Police Espionage , or to interfere with the proceedings of open public . meetings , called for the discussion of public questions , and for the consideration of public grievances . Theseare rights sacredly guaranteed to us b y the constitution , and neither Home Secretaries nor Police Commissioners shall be allowed to trample upon them with impunity . The / attempt of the two disguised Policemen to sneak into the meeting in Turnmill-street on Tuesday night , was as ill-timed as it is un '

      justifiable . Thero never was a period in the history of this country when the people were more quiet and orderly than the present . In fact , we may say , that political apathy is the prevailing character of popular opinion . The pretext , therefore , afforded by seasons of excitement and turbulent agitation for stepping over the strict limits of the law , do not now exist . If the authorities believed that there was anything dangerous or improper in the meetings at Turnmill-street , they ought to have sent their Officers openly in their regular uniform , not disguised as spies .

      Having done that they cannot be surprised that irritation was the consequence . The melancholy results of the Police hatched plot , which sent Cuffe y and his colleagues from our shores as convicted felons , for life are too fresh , for men to feel cool when they see the commencement of what appears a simil ar conspiracy to entrap them -within the meshes of the law . The Whig Cabinet have acquired inefaceable infamy for the disgraceful manner in which they encouraged , and took

      advantage of a fevr men who had been ensnared into connection with plans that were far more foolish and contemptible than they were dangerous or criminal . The partrons of Powell and Davis are not likel y soon to lose the character that attaches itself to such a connection , and it is to be feard that use has hardened them in the practice . Henceforth it would seem that we must regard Fo . lice Espionage as one of the means of govern , ment habitually employed by our liberal loving and constitutional Whigs .

      We cannot understand the decision of the Magistrate . Supposing that the assault charged against Mr . Fuzzen had been full y and incontestibl y proved , the ordinary course , in such cases , is , to impose a fine , proportioned to tho violence of the assault , and the nature of the circumstances under which it took place . Mr . Coiibe , however , apparently thought there was something more to find out " , and therefore bound over the defendant in

      sureties to appear on a future day , and answer any charges which may in tho mean , time be hunted up or concocted by his Police prosecutors . We should not be surprised , if by the time Mr . Combe has the matter again brought before him , n full-sized plot is hatched , with all the usual blunderbusses , drums , thunder , raw head and bloody bones , usual on such occasions . We all know , to our cost , that policemen are only human , and , of course , when their employers set them on the watch in plain clothes at Chartist meetings they understand what is wanted . What more natural than that they should find it ?

      We call upon the middle classes and the community at large , to stand between a calumniated , maligned , and oppressed class , and this most improper and dangerous use of the Police force . They are bound to exert themselves to put a stop to it from a sense of self ' preservation . Who knows how soon the same weapon may be turned against other agitations unpleasing to those in power ? The sole

      safe guard of the rights of all classes consists in their uniting to uphold , in all their purity and strength , those laws which guarantee the right of free thought , speech , and action to all Englishmen . That right has , in this case , been most grossly and carelessl y violated ; vud , we trust , that while it is met by immediate resistance and exposure , it will also be made the subject of Parliamentary inquiry at the opening of the Session ,

      In conclusion—without knowing anything of the facts of the case further than appears in the police report—we would say to all parties who profess to be Chartists , that anything approaching either to violence or to secresy can only have the effect of damaging and retarding the causo they ostensibly wish to promote . The People's Charter embodies objecta , and rests upon principles so noble aud so just that they are certain to be carried if their advocates act in consonance with both . We feel confident we have the superiority

      equally m principle aud argument . Why should any one throw away that advantage by having recourse to less worthy woapons ? Above all , we say , the man or men are enemies to democratic progress , who play into the hands of those in power by forming organisations , or agitating in a manner that tends to the inference ; there are concealed objects in view , or secret agencies at work . Let us have everything fair , and above board , and fight the battle for the Charter ia the honest , open , and manly manner which distinguishes our name and nation .

      [ A press of other matter compels us to withhold several articles which had been piepared for insertion this week . ]
