The trade situation in the United

though the winter weather has modi-

is the lateness of the season, and one
serious' feature of the situation is that

BRITISH VOLUNTEERS,
Strong Easter Torn Ont -'rhos Ave Fostered
by 'lord Syelsrley-'17pey will Be EIS.
elentiy Awned.
A despatch from London says: -There
has been an unusually strong turning
out of the British volunteers for the
Easter manoeuvres this year. In fact,
at no time since the formation of this
valuable. addition to the defences of
Great Britain against a foreign foe bas
there been such a martial spirit dis-
played in England. There is no doubt
that this large muster of volunteer
soldiers is one of the results_ of the
recent war alarms, but it is also part-
ly attributed to the fact that the
popular Commander -in -Chief of the
forces, Lord Wolseley, regards their ef-
forts in a much more serious light than
his predecessor, the Duke of Cam-
bridge. The latter, a stiff-necked sol-
dier of the old school of stocks and pipe-
clay, Brown Bess, flogging, and other
army abominations, looked with almost
contempt upon the British volunteer,
and sighed for the days of the old reg-
ulars at the Crimea, etc: But Lord
Wolseley, more up-to-date, though not
up to the Continental standard of a
modern general, is quite a believer in
the volunteers. He frankly acknow-
ledges that, in case of an invasion of
Great Britain, they would prove of im-
mense service. Therefore he intends
greatly to better their arms and equip-
ments, The improved ISI s'tini-Henrys,
now being discarded by the regulars,
will be placed in the hands of the vol-
unteers as quickly as possible, and the
latter, in due course of timer; tvi11 be
armed with the new Lee-Metford rapid
Bre magazine rifle. Better quarters, in
many cases, will also be assigned Co
the Jolunteers, their work at the tar-
gets will be greatly encouraged, and,
m short, Lord Wolseley will do all in
his power to encourage the volunteers
in their outings, which in future; it is
hopeel, will bo more in the nature of
practical tests of their powers as sol-
diers, than of the capacity to enjoy pic-
nics, which has been somewhat the case
in the past.
SOL OMON'S TEMPLE.
The Enormous Rasa of ,tuilding This tircal.
Piero of Worship.
Vele people, even in these days of
palmy extravagance and millionaire
display, have any adequate impression
of the gigantic cost of the groat temple
of Solomon. According to Villelpandus,
the " talents" of gold, silver and brass
used at the enormous sum of £0,879.-
822,000. The worth el the jewels is gen-
erally placed at a figure equally as
high. The vessels of gold, according to
Josephus, were valued at 140,000 talents,
which reduced to English money, (as has
been shown by Chapel's reduction ta-
bles), was equal to £575,296,208. The
vessels of silver, according to the same
authorities, were still more valuable, be-
ing set down as worth £640,8'141000.
Priests' vestments• and robes of sing-
ers, 42,010,000; trumpets, £200,000.
To this adcl the expense of building

wonderful figure's. Ten thousand men

dens,
urdens, 80,000 hewers of stone, 8,300 over-
seers, all of which were employed for
seven years, and upon whom, Weide
their wages, Solomon bestowed £6,733,-
97. If their daily toad was worth 50
cents eaoh, the sum total tor all was
463,877,088 during the time of build -

xnassiage is the announcement of an
immediate war witieli will result in the

and England. The uewspapers are full `
of accounts of the young woman's words

she lives, appropriately enough the Rue
Parents, fa blocked by a mob of sup-

become so great that the police noti-
fied her Sunday that she must change
her quarters. The most remarkable
thine about her is that she refuses to
accept a penny for making use of her
alleged supernatural powers.
This is her simple history: -Har'. pa-
rents, well-to-do Breton people, noticed
six or seven months ago that the
usual placidity of their daughter gave
way to fits of torpor and trances, dur-
ing., whreli the girl would utter extra-
ordinary phrases in a gruff voice.
They attributed this at first to indi-
gestion, then to a small disappoint-
ment in a love affair and thought that
n change of surroundings would do her
good. But the Angel: Gabriel willed
otherwise. He hod chosen Mile. Con-
esdon as his agent for fulfilling the
mission of truth, and finding, theat-
mosphere of Saint Belemunpropitious
for the propaganda, ordered tele Cones -
don family to return to Paris. She
certainly disconcerts the most sceptical
of her callers, including journalists, doc-
tors, and other hard-headed persons. Ab
English correspondent who talked to her
says :-"She failsinstantly into a
trance, and answers questions in a sing-
song manner, automatically, and in a
voice which certainly is not hers. There
is no mistake. She tells you extraord-
(inary things about your intimate al -

ard has forbidden them to visit her.

BRITAIN'S SURPLUS,
A despatch from London says: -The
yearly revenue returns offer aremark-
able indication of the prosperity of the
country, and of the effect of the death
duties inaugurated by Sir William Ver-
non Harcourt as Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer in the late Liberal Govern-
ment. The receipts are £101,973,000,
being an increase of £7,290,000 compar-
ed with last year, and being £5,,812,000
more than Sir William Vernon Har-
court; estimated in the budget. The ex-
penditure totals are £97,788,000, or £1,-
542,000 above Sir William Harcourt's es-
timate. Thus the surplus for the year
amounts to more than £4,000,000.

One does not need to wait, if wise,
until heart disease has developed to
that degree that one hardly knows from
hour to lhoiir when he or she may drop
dead. Those heart fluttcrings that a
little excitement brings on, followed by
smothering spells that seem as though
they would prove fetal, are simply
guide posts pointing to the grana, if
ready and reliable measures to stem
the disease are not taken. A safe re•
needy is always found in Dr. Aguew's
Care for the heart:, It gives relief
immediately, and oven, without mueh
of the medicine being taken, it com-

but it cures heart disease only.
