The Gtotesaya "We learn from Cronstadt that the Russian government contemplates sending the great iron-clad Peter the Great to the Pacific, and that four other men-of-war for the Pacific are fitting out." Emigration from the Clyde to America is rapidly.

The Anchor line steamer Devonia left, last night for New York with 500 steerage passengers.

London. May 14. A Berlin dispatch says: "When all the new formations planned and worked out in their minute details by the German war minister are completed, the total strength of the army will exceed 2,000,000 men." ff A Paris correspondent of the Manchester Guardian says: "Premier Gladstone prefers not to open negotiations for a new commercial treaty until the new tariff law has been passed by the French Senate, in order to leavj a sure basis for discussion. If Mr.

Gladstone persists in this attitude it is feared tuatM. Leon Say may resign the French Ambassadorship to England, which be only accepted for a short time and solely tor the purpose of this negotiation." London, May 14. Jantes Laird, the eminent agricultural authority, in a letter to the limes on British agricultural prospects and American competition, "It may be useful to show the pressing need for an early removal of every impediment which unnecessrrily hampers us in the competition towhicb we are now exposed. Nothing like the present depression in agricultural interests has been seen since the repeal of the corn laws. In nine years there have been seven defective wheat harvests, causing a loss to England wheat growers of more than thirty millions sterling, with no compensation in higher prices.

The introduction of foreign meat and cereals is of immense benefit to the consuming classes of Europe, and American statesmen believe they are rapidly gaining control of this trade and can maintain it even at lower prices. It must be met by the production here of articles which will not bear long storage or carriage, such as milk, fresh butter, early meal, vegetables, bay, straw, potatoes, and the sugar beet. All interests in land, whether of owner, occupier, or laborer, must be disenthralled; the control of the dead land must be removed: the sale and transfer of land must be simplified and cheapened. (Encumbered and unwieldy estates will then be broken and subdivided to form numerous properties. The drain of agricultural labor and capital to the United States and Canada, which have already commenced and which nothing can prevent from continuing and increasing, will alter the existing conditions of agricultural property in England.

Our must adapt itself to the change, freely accepting the good it brings, and skilfully using the advantages which greater proximity to the best market must always command." i- CALIFORNIA.
