Among tbe speakers was Mr. George W: Smalley, who is a. oorrespondent of the London Times. "New aud Old Eng - lend" was the sabject of les discourse, and he ceased. quite a sensation by Lis broad baudling of the diplomatic xelations Isetwear this country and the eountries upon the other side ere the weter. He referred to Cleveland's Venezuelan meg- sage, and declared. that England had shown a great deal of forbearance in tbis affair. He declared also that the Coutin- mau1 power e had come to think ot the United. Stateseis a menace to the peace of the world, iustancing the interference of the Vetted States in the Venezuelan guestion, the attitude of the ITnitedStates toward Turkey in connection with Armenian affairs and Turkeyte war with Greece; its attitude with' reference to Hawaii, and latter/5, the strong orna- ments thet have been expressed by the henerican people against Spaires war iii Cuba. 310 aid that so sixong ever° the I eel - bras entertained by the Contemn-tal powers against this country, there would certainly be termed a combination to oppose may action that the 'United States Government imigbt attempt to take to enforce compliance with its wisties, and asked if it inight not be well, under isuob circumstances, for tile United States to got as close as possible to England, tee Old and the New England.

A. pamphlet giving .the details a the export trade a Montreal for 1897 has dust been issued by The Montreal Ga- eette. The season has been one of the most prosperous in the history elf tire pore. During the year there arrived '798 'vessel% being an increase of Waver the season a 1896, while the teenage for 1897 shows an increase of 46,460 tons, or an increase of about twenty per cent The tonnage °Montreal has more:than doubled within twelve years, The cheese industry continues to form, the leading feature a Montreal's export trade. The exports of this article amounted to 2,100,000 boxes, an increase of 370,000boxes Oyer last year. Ten years ago, when the export of cheese reached the vicinity ofa million boxes, the development was consider- ed remarkable, but events have dem- onstrated that it was only the begins iaing of the industry. The amount realized by Canadian farriers from cheese exported. durieg 1807 is ewer fourteen million dollars. The exports of butter have increased from 81,801 packages in 1801 to 157,321 in 1896 and 220,252 in 1897. While there was au increase of 18,828 head of cattle in the shipments of 1807 over those of 1896 the former season x eems to have been a disastrous one for exporters. It is estimated by most of the prominent cattle dealers that an average loss of $0 per head was sustained by them, in the whole aggregating about three million dollars. All the great, cereals show handsome gains. The most no - able are those in the three leading lines -wheat, corn rind oats. In the caseof the two former there has been an increase of almodt three million bushels, while the latter recortle gain of over the two -million. mark. Over one hundred thousand bushels InOre peas were exported this year than last, while rye has gained almost. half a million bushels compared with last year. The only decreases record- ed are those in barley, flour and meal, and they are of a trivial nature. Taken altogether the grain dealers bave bad a very successful year, Values bat -e been betterthan last, and in the aggre- gate they have increased their out -put in rough figures, fully eight million bushels, compared with last year's to- tal turn -over. The season of 1807 was a record breaker in the export of timber from Montreal, the shipments being 800,420 059 feet. an increase of 70,416,460 feet over the preceding year. The exports of poultry and eggs show considerable increases, while in apples there was a decrease. A, Government Gain.
