AGRICULTURAL EXPORTS.
Great Britain, Germany and France Took
Nearly 75 Fer Cent of Total
Amount.
Washington, Jan. 15. Mr. Frank II.
Hitchcock, chief of tho foreign markets
division of the agricultural department,
has prepared an interesting collation of
figures showing the respective amounts
of our agricultural exports which go to
the several conu trios of Europe aud of
the other continents. The period cov
ered is 1S'J4 to 1808. The statement
shows that the agricultural products ex
ported from tho United States during
the five years had un averago value of
$1)63,03(1.201. Of those enormous ex
ports, about f0 per ceut found a market
in the United Kingdom and its various
depeudeucics.
The sum paid by the British people
for tho American farm produce pur
chased duriug tho period mentioned
reached as high as $103,953,854 a year.
Great Brituiu alone took more than one
half of all our agricultural exports, the
consignments credited to that country
forming about 55 per cent of the total
shipments, aud having au average an
nual value of $363,407,701.
Germany, which ranks next to the
United Kingdom as a market for the
products of American agriculture, re
ceived about 13 per ceut of the exports
for 18!)4-18!18. the average yearly value
amounting to $HU,320,274.
France, with purchasos that averaged
$43,!J8S,7'J0 a year, or about 0.0 per ceut.
of the total, was the third country in
importance. Theso three couutries
the United Kingdom, Germany aud
France received together nearly 75 par
cent- of tho total agricultural exports.
After the three countries just men
tioned, the Netherlands, Belgium, Can
ada, Italy aud Spain afforded the most
important markets.

Phetoria, Thursday, Jau. 11, via
Lourenzo Marques. President Kruger,
in the course of a stirring address just
issued to.tho Burghers affirms that Provi
deuco is on their side, that their cause
is just and that they must suceeed.
Reports from Colesberg represent the
position there as favorable to tho Re
publicans, but that the British are con
centrating for operations on a large
scale.
The official list of the Boer casual
ties in what is called tho "Plat-Rand
fight," ou Saturday, Jan. 6 (the attack
upon Ladysinith), shows 20 killed aud
77 wounded. These figures are described
as tho "first return."
The embargo at Dclagoa bay upon
Transvaal imports is the question of
the hour with the Burghers. If this is
not removed it is asserted that steps
will bo taken prejudicial to prisoners
and aliens.

hERESY CHARTS BEFORE NEW

They Were drought ly t..i S aied Clerk,
Itev. Illrrli 1 he Accused t iled to Ap
pear for Tual at the Next Meeting
of the I'resbitery.
New Yokk, Jan. 10. -The presbytery
of New York listened to the formal
charges of heresy made against Rev.
Dr. Arthur C. M;Giffi)rt, by the stated
clerk, Rev. G. W. F. Birch, aud there
upon cited Dr. McOitfert to appear be
fore it at the next meeting of the pres
byter to be hold ou Feb. 12 aud plead.
The charges brought by the stated
nlcrK aver that Dr. McGiffert being a
minister of tho Presbyterian church in
tho United States of America, aud a
member of the presbytery of New York,
publicly demos the fundamental doc
trines of the immediate inspiration by
God, and tho truthfulness aud author
ity of the Holy Scripture, as set forth
in the coufessiou of faith aud the Scrip
ture itself; that said Dr. McOiit'crt, iu
his book entitled "A History oT Chris
tiautity in the Apostolic Ago," denies
the immediate inspiration by God aud
the infallible authority of Holy Scrip
ture by discrediting or coutradictina
statements of its writings; by teaching
that the authors of Holy Scripture con
tradict each other, or that Scripture
contradicts Scripture, aud by denying
the genuineness, truthfulness an 1 au
thority of portions of tho Gospel accord
ing to John, and the discourses of O'.r
Lord as they are contained in said
Gospel.
After Dr. McGiffert has boju heard
the presbytery, sitting as a ourt, may
dismiss tho charges. Whatever action
they may take may be ap:)jaled from to
the higher courts of the church.
It was said that Dr. Birch, by insist
ing on his charges, had offended mauy
of his supporters iu tho presbytery, aud
that his cl- ikship might be taken from
him at tho annual meeting.
