A bulletin jurt issued by the Department of Agriculture on t)$ subject of "The Fature Demand for American Cotton,'’ argues that the -Rxpansion of the industry dependa upon the amount

of clotting worn by the world.

The consumption of cotton, according to this bulletin, has increased so greatly within the last quarter of a century that there would appear to be no real limit to its future possibilities. It is estimated that of the world’s population of 1.500.000.000 about <00.000,000 regularly wear clothes. About 750,000,ood arc partly clad and 250,000.000 hab-

Willemstad (By Cable). — President Castro, of Venezuela, has returned tc Caracas from Barcelona owing to the impossibility for him with his army of 3,000 ifien to attack the revolutionists waiting for him entrenched at Aragux, capital of the State of Guzman Blanco. He left without firing a single shot, notwithstanding his proclamation in which he said he would fight one against ten. The moral effect produced by hi? retreat is disaitrous for the government, and goes an idea of tbe strangest of revolutions which latterly has spread towards the center of Venezuela. The revolutionsists are at Chaguaratna? on their ^y to Ortuco. 60 miles from CaPresident Castro's new plan is to attack the revolutionists near Valencia, where they are assembling from all directions.
