Some cotton-yarn, spun in the United States, has been imported

into Liverpool, free of duty. It will be recollected that there is a duty on the raw material. Now the right way to prevent such in- terference with our Manchester spinners, is not to impose a duty on foreign yarn, but to abolish the duty on cotton-wool. In the meanwhile, this circumstance may be taken as a warning by those who obstinately cling to the Corn-laws, despite the danger to the millions of our manufacturing districts, which arises from the com- petition of men who now get bread so much cheaper, and will soon procure machinery as cheap as ourselves.
