This source of food supply and ef export commerce is a very important one to Canada, and its growth will be watched with interest. The value of our catch of fish and fish products for the year ended 30th June 1879, was $15,529,254, an increase over that of the previous year of £313,576, and an increase equal to $1,847,368 in value over that of | 1874, which was the largest yigd recorded | previous to 1878. ENGLAND'S people are getting tu fknow that Britain” in prepoition to its population, is the most extensive consumer of English manufactures. It appears from a table prepared by Mr. Frederick Young that the annual consumption of English merchandise per head is represented by tke follewing figures :-— United States, 7a; Germany 9s 2d; France 788d; North American Coloa- ies, £2 28 9d; and Australia, £8 10s 81. A more elaborate analysis by Dr. Forbes Watson brings out this striking result, that Australia actually consumes, in preportion to iis population, a larger quantity of Eng lish manufactures than Englishmen them- selvea. This is all very fine; but it may be as well to remark that the same fact was pointed out by Allison in his Histery of Envope, 1815-535 written seme thirty years ago. It received no ait ntion then, in pre- sence of the rushing foreign demand ; but in view of a slacking of it in cur day is likely tobe deemed of some importance should the disruption of the Empire be again advocated as a step in ‘‘the path of progress.” Best Cusromers.—Knglish | 68 TY ngant waPEar There are some markeis in which Great Britain's manufactures have a decided ad- varitage over that of her rivals. We hear much, of late, about the v.lla‘neus charac. ter of the cottens sent from Manchester to China and Japan, compared with which American cottons are so good, so honest, and se popular. To Mer'co, it appears, England atill sends two or three yards ef cotten to one of the United States. The ‘‘ Industrial Monthly,” edited by Dr. Ed- ward Young, remarks that England, after earry ng the raw cotton across the Atlantic, spinning and weaving it, transports it across the ecean the second time and “‘ sells it to Mexico many yards to one from the United States.” The statistics fer the last three years are as follows : United States.
