The United States the Cause of

the Depression in England.

(English Correspondent New York Herald.)

Many reasons are assigned—the main | reason, the prosperity of the United States. Nothing seeiis clearer than thix, that Eng- | land is falling back simply becuse Anerien |

is advanciug. If you look for the exanses of |

There is | the distress in the iron trade. Well, in ten years America has added twelvefold to her iron preduction. Every ton of ore pro- duced is so much taken from England. We can make iron even in Tennessee and Ala baina cheaper than itcan be nade in Eng- land, and as a consequence the export trade of English iron, once the largest item of our imports, is confined to the Atlantic coast. Very soon it will be driven out and we shall be sending our manufactured iron to this market. This makes an immense chasm in the profits of English labor. There is no distress in the cotton trade, Not long since England had a virtual monopoly of cotton manufacture. She purchased our raw cotton and sent it back to us in cloth, and the industry assumed prodigious pro- portions, She had a market in India and China. I am afraid even to hazard a guess as to the amount of money England has made in the last half csntury ont of her cotton trade with India, China and the United States. What do you see now? The United States makes her own cotton into cloth and begins tosupply England. Im China our cloths are so much better than the English that we are taking the market. I hear of some English mills innitating our American trade marks so as to secure a Chinese market. I read warning articles in the newspapers, telling cotton manufacturers that unless they stop cheating the Chinese by putting too much sizing in their cotton cloths, they wili los2 their whole trade, the Chinaman being a thoughtful, prudent person, and nof caring to buy sizing by the yard. In India, where Engiand has a monopoly of the cotton trade, and where local regula- tions would forbid any serious competition on our part, the people are building cotton mills and making their own cloth. Labor is so cheap in India, and cotton grows there in such profusion, that this competition must be effective. So you see that three great markets in which England ‘:as here- tofore being supreme, are taken ivom her, and the cotton trade dies, and the men who work in cotton must go to the relief Associ- ations and crave bread and imeat.

How Farmers Lose Money.

(From Colman's Rural World.)

By not taking oue or more papers.

Keeping no accvunt of farm operations, paying no attention to the maxim that ‘‘a stitch in time saves nine,” in regard to sow- ing grain or planting seed at the proper time.

Leaving reapers, cultivators, plows, etc., unsheltered from the rain and heat of the sun. More money is lost in this way an- nually than most persons would be willing to believe.

Permitting broken implements to be scattered over the farm until they are ir- reparable. By repairing broken imple- ments at the proper times, many dollars may be saved—a proof of the assertion that time is money.

Attending auction saies and purchasing all kinds of trumpery because, in the words of the vendor, the articles are very cheap.

Disbelieving the principle of rotation of crops, before making a single experiment.

Allowing fences to remain unrepared until strange cattle are found grazing in the meadow, grain fields, or browsing on the fruit trees.

Planting fruit trees without giving the trees half the attention required to make them profitable.

The St. John’s (P. Q.) News, an Inde- pendent journal, ealls attention to the mis- chievous misrepresentation of Canadian affairs by thé New York Witness. That journal contends that Mr. Tilley received a rebuff in England, and that the causes were various. The News replies: ‘‘1. Canadian credit has not declined since the 17th of Deecmber last. 2. The loan of Mr. Tilley’s negotiation was a success, and the misre- presentations of the Globe and its witnesses have been positively refuted by authority. 3. Mr Tilley met with a ‘rebuff,’ but was well received, and could to-morrow get three millions more if he required that amount. It isa miserable misrepresenta- tion of the National Policy to say that it shuts out English manufactures, or contem- plates increasing the tariff as a whole. It does propose a readjustment of the tariff in the interest of Canada, and if we do not misread the signs of the times, England will be compelled to readjust her tariff or cease to be a first-rate manufacturing pow- er.” 3

It is said that the Pacific Railway sec- tions, for which tenders are now being ad- vertised, will be let ‘at the earliest possible moment. The delays which have already occurred are said to be owing to the fact that the specifications were not ready.

Last year, 5,314 books were published in England, 1,584 being new editions. Fiction leads, with 879 volumes ; theology comes next, with 739, and education third, with 586. Nearly all the novels are republished, while hardly a third of tho otior books go to a second edition.

[t is rumored that the Indians about dattleford, North West Territories, are constantly appealing to Gevernor Laird for aid in addition to what they already re- ceived in accordance with the terms of In- dian treaty No. 5. It is not known on what particular ground the Indians base their dissatisfaction, but there ean be no doubt that much anxiety exists about Fort Pelly and Battleford.—Ottawa Herald.

The Empress Eugenie is described as leading the quietest and most monotonous ot lives at Chiselhurst. She prays, she drives, she embroiders, sometimes she plays whist in the evening; one day is almost ex- actly like another. Her food is simple, and she talks little at table, but always looks pleasant and interested. She is still hand- some, her beautiful golden hair shining royally above her plain black dress.

The Duchess of Cumberland was assured an independent annual income on her mar- riage, and if the next Folkestadt is more complaisant, the King will ask it to give his daughter a dower of 120,000 crowns, say 222,150. If the Duke could only get back his father’s sequestrated estates from Germany he pected have an income of $500,- 000 a year, leaving outof the question his expectations from Brunswick.

Alvin Harrison, a cousin of President Harrison, and a hermit in Kansas, died re- cently in the uncomfortable cabin he has inhabited for many years. He was a prom- ising young physician when he became en- gaged to a lady who, on the eve of their marriage, eloped with somebody else. Mr. Harrison was so disgusted that he retired from the ken of mankind, and has ever since lived alone, balf-clothed and _ half-fed in spite of a comfortable fortune

A definite plan has been finally decided upon for settling the affairs of Archbishop Pureoll, of Cincinatti. All the property of the Archbishop will be turned over to five trustees, who will manage it in the interest of the creditors. The indebtedness is $500,000, and the property to be turned over exceeds $1,000,000. Th» trustees will raise the necessary cash by issuing bonds, payable on call after three years, and not later than twenty.

Henry 8. Ellmore, a former trustee of Talmage’s tabernacle, and from whom his wife obtained a divorce on the ground of illictt intimacy with Mrs. Hutchins, of Brookiyn, married Mrs. Hutchins in Ham- ilton, Ont., on Thanksgiving Day, in order to evade the law of New York State. The marriage notice was not published. The parties since lived in Brooklyn. The second Mrs. Ellmore has now become insane, her hallucination being that she has committed an unpardonable sin against her first hus- band, now dead, and that he will never for- give her.

Boschee’s German Syrup has gained the largest sale in the world for the cure of Coughs, Colds and the severest Lung Diseases. It is Dr. Boschee’s famous German prescripticn, and is pree pared with the greatest care, and no fear need be entertained in administering it to the youngest child, as per directions. The sale of this medicine is unprecedented. Since first introduced there has been a con- stant incfeasing demand and without a
