FIGDEES THAT ARK EYE-OPEXEBSt Great Growth bat of Trcadstnff Shipments, American Gold STILL GOES TO ENGLAND IX MILLIONS rrrciAL TrtzcnvM to the pisriTcn.i XewYouk, Feb. 2ll "fireat Britain's Food Supply" is the subject of itathew larsbaH's article ior to-morrow's &tn, m hich is as follon s: I liould liaro to be eitlicr more or less than liuman not to chuckle n little over Saturday's l-ccoiiimenceuiPiit of sold ship ments trora this country to Europe. Six months aRO nlmojt every boa y was Indulging in pleaMiis: visions of a lemni to us in ex change for our breadstuff of the $75,OD0,0O0 in jrold hich we had sent aliioad during the first half of the year, mid on the btrcnstli of this expected influx of llir pi ecious metal the premature and short-lit ed September liscin prices on the stock Exchange was en gineered. Hut 1 vcntuicd to express the doubt whether Luropc would cnd us gold in payment for the food or which she stood so sadly in need, rather tnan out own bonds and stocks. I argued that sold was quite as much required abroad as food was, and that the financial magnates of London and the continent ould do their best to prevent any great amount of it from coming" to us. In this opinion Tw as soon atterward supported by the eminent British statistician and economist, Robert Giffen, who about the end of September declared, and for the same reasou taat I gave, that not more than XlU,O0O,OJO, or say $50,000,000 in KOld, will be allowed by the European bank ers to be shipped this wav. Jlr. Uiflen iras however, incautious enough to add the lur ther prediction that a liuancial crl-ls would overtake this country dmlng the present irontli as the consequence of our silver money measures, and this threw discredit upon our views on the other point, but that we were both light in regard to it events have proved. Great Britain Oar Largest Customer. The total imports of gold into this country (luring the autumn amounted to only a little more than $10,000,000. They ceased alto gether before the end of the year, and now the tide has begun to mn the other way. Xotwithstandingall this.l am far Irom under estimating the requirements of Euiope in the matter of food supplies and the conse quent pecuniary profit which will result therefrom to our tanners. Great Britain, especially, will be, ns usual, the largest cus tomer lor their pioducts. Eer since the lepeal of the corn laws in IMG, British in dustry has been, y ear by year, more and more tll erted frou-. the tilling of the soil an J the raising of cattle to mining and uiau-umctui-iug. As much as 12 years ago Sir. Stephen Bourne, in his work, "Trade, Population, and Food." estimated that nenrlv tun-firths of the substantial lood ot his countrymen nas imported, and that 15 00J,000 outot the 43 iKXMMOof them w ere sustained upon foreign supplies. Since then, owing to the enor mously increased production of our new lands and of the greater facilities and cheapness ot our railroad transportation to tiie seacoast, coupled with successive crop failures m the Uuited Kingdom, the propor tion of its Imported to its homc-gron n Jood has become much larger. The last live months especially are noteworthy in this rc-pect. Fioin September 1. 1831. the begin ning of the haivest yeai, to January' 30. li tiie British imports of foretell wheat and wheat flour amounted to 4A"7,GO0 hundred w eights, while the sales ot the home-grown product were but 17-Wi,O00 hundred-weights. oi less than one-third ot the aggregate. For the corresponding oeriod ot the previous year the proportions w ei e 31,0 9,b00 to 20.745, OSW: rot- that or the jear belore JH.Wi751to IS ttVi.OiW, and for the car lbsS-a it w as 38,410. StfO to 1G (!e,35. That the imports of the artieels mentioned hao been rather in excess of consump tion is shown by the tail in the price of n heat rroin an average of 30 shillings and K per quai ter of eight uu-hels m December ana the flist hair or January, to about 33 shillings for the tlrst week ot this mouth, tint still, lor tiie ia--t four years, the imports into Great Butainof wheat and wheat Hour have never supplied less than about Hve eights of the consumption, audiu 1SS8-9 they supplied two-thirds. As I have iust said, Great Britain is our best customer Tor lood products, but the extent to which she takes them Irom us is not lully appreciated bvtlioso who are un familiar w ith the statistics. For myself, I hae to contess that until I looked into the matter I had no idea that to much ot our total exports ot grain and provisions go to our cousins across the Atlantic. Here are the figuers liom the official Government re turns ot imports and exports Tor the fiscal J ear ending June 3ii, 1S91. buy bread, and 11 not from one country then from another, and if pold is for any reason lacking then the bouds and stock may be "Ued In Its stead, as wo see. This, however. Is abstract speculation. The practical ques tion before us at the moment Is to forecast how loujr and to what extent the shipment of gold abroad, which began on Saturday, will continue, and what will be Its effect upou our finances. That It will last as long nud amount to as much as It did a year ago I don't believe. Then the gold shipped was drawn mostly out of the Government vaults, where It lav as useless as it was before It was mined. Tiie loss of it did not in the least diminish the reserve of our banks, whereas now every dollar sent away comes from the supply in actual use, and its loss must there fore denres prices, particularly those of the securities which the British are selling to pay tor tho food they are buying. For some weeks to come, therefore, I look for a de pressed stock market. to 'I believe Dr. D. Jayne's Expectorant be the best Luxo Medicine there is." Bix)ivville,.Oiiio, Dec 3, 185)1. Dr. D. .Tayne & Son Gentlemen: I be lieve Dr. D. Jayne's Expectorant to be the best "Lung Medicine" there is. A few years ago a man boarding at my hohsc was taken very ill with the Croup and lost all power of speech. Having a bottle of the Expectorant in the house I gave him a good dose, and repeated it at intervals. In a short time he could speak, and next day was as well as ever. All of Dr. .Jayne's Medipines are well thought of in this com munity. Kiley McAdams.

The tonlo and alterative effects of Hood's Sarsaparilla so happily meet the lost three conditions, that with the protection given by this medicine you need not fear tho Grip. HOOD'S SARSAPARILLA Is an inexpensive medicine and a single bottle may savo you many dollars In doctors' bills and much suffering;. A Firm "Grip" "One year ago I was taken down sick with tho Grip,' and my whole system seemed completely run down. I could not sleep o". eat. A friend of raino advised me to try Hood's Sarsaparilla.
