The London | Economist published a table of average prices of wheat every year fora century back, which shows that the price of wheat was lower during the first half of the present year than for any year since 1780. The average for the last half year was 373. 8d. per quarter in En, land, against 45s. 81. for 1884 and 45. ld. for 1882. In order to get a parallel for such a price we have to go back to 1851, when it towchea 38s. 6d, and then to 1780 when it was 36s. And yet the Economist shows that the third quarter of this year has opened with lower average prices than the first haif, and prophesies tht with good crops in prospect here and in Europe the values will be lower still. The wheat situation is really un- precedented ; for no such general conditions of supply and demand as the present pre- vailed in 1851, much less in 1780. 8 tet
Lord Lansdowne and the Farmers.
Lord Lansdowne in the course of his reply to the address presented him by the Provincial Fair Association at Ottawa on Thursday, said: ‘To my mind not the least remarkable point of what I saw at Montreal and Toronto was the gathering of the people of the surrounding country at these great shows. I must own that my impression in this respect was a most favor- able one. Let me give you an illustration, One day at Toronte I was told there were 50,000 people on the ground. I did not see a single person whose appearance was otherwise than creditable aud respectable.” tee
A statement of claim in the second suit of Gordon Brown vs. Nelson, has been fyled at Osgoode Hall, Torcnto. This ac- tion is brought by Mr. Brewn to recover $50,000 damages for alleged wrongfal dis- missal from the position of editor-in-chief and managing director of the Globe. The plaintiff, in his statement of claim, alleges that he was induced by Nelson to purchase seventy-four shares of Globe stock, repre- senting some $33,000, from cefendant, who by managing the affairs of his bro- ther-in-law, the late Hon. George Brown, secured practical control of the Globe ,»pon condition he would be continued as editor and manager at $5,000 per year, with which he was to pay for said steck, and without which he was anable to do so: that ata meeting of the directors his ap- rointment was ratified, and saubsequentiy

At the close of 1882, the total railroads of the world footed up to 264,826 miles Of this amount Canada had 7,894 miles, and the United States 117,617, Greai Britain and freland 18,168 miles, Australia 5,592, and India 9,872.
The whole English press concur in urging upon the government its immediate atten- tion to the state of the navy. The qnestion is attracting unusual attention and dis- cussion. The foreign press consider that Evgland has nothing to fear while she con- tinues to hold her coaling stations in all parts of the world.
A new vault has been constructed under the Treasury building at Washington which will hold fitty million silver dolars.

The British Columbians welcome the departure of the Celestials.
A despatch in regard to the active ship- mevt of provisions which is being made from San Francisco to China, illustrates the old adage that ‘it is an ill wind that blows wobody good.” No doubt a prolonged war with Cuina would tend to put up the price of many articles now greatly depressed. The people of California appear to be find- ing a market in China for their surplus flour, which will, ro doubt, be very wel- come in view of the preeent low prices in Europe.
The United States furnishes Great Bri- tain with about £20,000 worth of bones, horns, and hoofs every year, a portion uf which is returved in scales for the Ameri- can cutlers, and the remainder in the finished cutlery from Sheffield. The shank bones of oxen are almost exclusively used for this purpose, 2,000,000 being required annually by the cutlery trade, and the beet of these furm a fair imitation of ivory. Of the whole importation of bones into Great Britain in 1880, 78,138 tons were made into fertilizers, and 11,411 tons were used for manufacturing purposes, chiefly by Sheffield cutlers,
