Once more the sea has betrayed Spain to the profit of the Anglo-Saxon raze, which appears, no meatier uoder what flag it fights, whether | it be the Stare and Stripes or Union Jack. to be the favorite on the ocean.” i —In view of the belief expressed that the fire at the residence of Mr. F.

The island of Lauzon, on which Mauilla is situated, ia larger than the states of New York and Massachusetts combined and hasa population of 5,000, - 000. The isiand of Mindano is nearly if not quite as large as Lanzon. In all there are about 2000 islands in a land and sea area of 1200 miles north and south and 2400 miles east and west. The hemp exports in 1897 were 914,055 | tons and sugar exports £582,904 tons. Of | the former 42 per cent went to the United | States and 55 per cent of the latter to the same country. The average annual exports of these two products to the United States for the past ten years has been nearly 9 millions «f dollars.

Ofthis enormons trade New South Wales alone possesses nearly ove third, the figares for 1897, saccord- ing to the colonial Government Statist, being £45,495,422, as follows :— Austraiasian colonies, £17,776,943; Unit~ ed Kingdom, £16,285,897; other British possessions, £1,4£9,025; United States, £4,350,196; France (including New Cale-~ dovia and Taniti), £1,929,823; Germany (including German New Guinea aod other possessions in the Pacific,) £1,796,661; Belgium, £746,097; otber countrier, £1,- 151,160, ‘The bulk of the Australasian exports of domestic produce is taken by the United Kingdom, the total value of these, io 897, being £3,728- 828, against £8,375,883 in 1896, and £9,371.418 in 1895. In 1892 the amount was £.,653,915. In 1897 the imports from the United Kingdom amounted to £7,557,069, agains £7,190,115 in 1896; £6,420,107 in 1895; and £5,983,489 in 1894. There has teen a steady increase of trade between New South Wales and Great Britain, interrupted only by the great financial and commercial panic of some few years ago, the ill effects of which are rapidly di:appearing;and with increas~ ed attention to colonial requirements, it is believed that in the near future this increase will become largely accelerated. There has also been an increase of trade, chiefly export, with the United Siater, the figures for 1897 being—imy orts, £1,887,877 exports, £2462,391. In 1893 the imports were £526,331, and the exporis £626,566, afourfold increase. Trade with France has remained almost statiovary, but that with New Caledonia and Tahiti shows an increase. Although se much has been said respecting the expansion of German trade in Australia, there is little or no appearance of it in New South Wales, the ‘mports from tia’ coun'ry in 1897 being valued al £900,464, agains| £551,402 iw 1892. There was a drop to £373,233 in 1893, but au Increase took place in each of the suc- ceeding years. ‘There has beeu consid- erable fluctuations in the New South Wales exports to Germany, as shown by the following ftgures:—1892, £1,017,456; | 1893, £979,898; 1894, £917,310; 1895, } £1.141,661; 1896, £774,349; 1897, £230,440. The numerous facilities af- forded for the introduction of Anuetralian produce into’ the United Kingdom gives the mother coustry an immeo-e advantege over contioental rivals, because the larger the value of its im- ports, the moreconsiderable becomes that of the manufactures taken in exchange. Were the German tariff more liberal with rega:d io Australian produce, the two countries would Le more encouraging. If British manufacturers are beaten by sta 118 German competitors in any of the branch- es of industrial production, they will have | only themselves to blame, as all the mater~ | ial advantages sre at preseat ou their | side.
