g What he thinks of White Pine Balsam for coughs and colds. 3-4. Loxoox, Feb. 1.â€"â€"Sir Charles Dilke‘s new b0ok The Problems of the Greater Britain is well received, and promises an immense sale. The writer dealschiefly with the questions of the resources and defences of Great Britain, and embodies in his work much of the condemnatory matter which formed the basis of the arti- cles he published some time ago calling attention to the defenceless state of Eng- land’s coast. He insists that Imperial de- fensive measures, after the plan of those adopted by Germany, the absolutely es- sential, and also earnestly recommends that England follow the German system of federation as speedily as possible. Im- perial Federation, he asserts, is bound to come sooner or later and the sooner the betcer. It must not, however, be forced upon Canada. and Austsalia. which are the best and most trustworthy political labor guides that England has, and whose solu- tion of the great problem of the exact re- lations of capital to labor. and Vice versa, must ultimately be accepted by the home Country. But try a bottle of White Pine Balsam if you have a cough or cold. ‘ 3-4. Th‘ Loxnox, Feb. 1.-â€"-An English medical light, whose articles in the Lancet and other pathological journals always provoke considerable controversy, is of the opin- ion that Europe has a great deal to fear frOm the cholera during the coming sum- mer. The virulent type it has assumed, he says is highly unusual in the winter months, and marks an almost unprecedent- ed malignitv in the fearful pestilence. If the cholera should really prove epidemic it will follow its usual routes through Asia Minor to Turkey in Europe and to India via the Persian Gulf. So long as Moslem fatalists hold the European side of the Bosphorus plagues of this kind will gain a foothold in Europe. Any attempt to sub- ject the Turks to sanitary laws will be looked upon by them as an outrage and a conspiracy on the part of the western na- tions to encroach upon their liberties and subvert their religion. English financial papers are rejoicing ox er the enm mously mcx eased volume of British trade «luring:r the last year. The figures show that the foreigh trade of Great Britain in 1889 was the largest e\ er known beinu valued at. 333, 378,385,000, or 45 000, 000' 1n excess of the largest pre- \ious total on record, that of the year 1883. It will be instruclhe for those who put confidence 1n the current. fallacy con- cernimr the balance of trade to observe that the imports :wgregated $2,137 925 - 000, and the expatâ€"ts $1,240, 459,795. No nation in the world can show returns at all approaching these. They indicate that in spite of hostile foreign tariffs, trade disturbances and ominous threatings of war, Great Britain has steadily advanced in all the avenues of a world wide com- memeâ€"«Star. Take Notice That the attack of influenza is very slight when the patient has been using Dandelion Root Bitters. 52-3 OTTAWA, Feb. 2.â€" Haldimand’s next polling day is fixed for Feb. 20, nomina- tions being on Feb. 13.

LONDON, Feb. 2.â€"It is noted as a. sign of the times that the Duke of Fife, who‘ recently married the Princess Louise of Wales,‘ has entered the field of politics. The Duke, however, is not to be restrain- ed by royal conventionalities. He is too ambitious for that. He regularly attends political meetings and is sedulously coax- ing himself for a. public career. The only explanation the political {world can give of his erratic proceedings is that he aims at vice-royalty. and it 18 hinted that he may follow the precedent of the Marquis of Lorne and succeed Lord} Stanley of Preston as G M. Entrlish quotations were unchanged to- day ,but seemed firm. In the States there w as: very little change. The local market remained dull. FLOURâ€"NO mcvement reported; there was some Manitobnn strong baker’s offin- ed, but no sales made. WHEATâ€"Continued decidedly weak but sold to a small extent at 80c for No. 2 fall on the Northern, with more of this grade offered at 81c, and of No. 2 spring at 79c; cars on the spot would have been taken to a small extent at 87c for No. 2 red, at 86c for No. 2 fall, and at 830 for No. 2 spring. Manitoba hard was offered at equal to $1.05 for No. 1, and equal to $1.04 for No. 2, but no sales reported. OATSâ€"Unchanged; mixed sold at ‘285c on track, and white on the Grand Trurk at 25c. BARLIâ€"2\'-â€"Seemed dull and rather un- settled, but sold to a very small extent at 40$c, and 40c for extra No 3 f. o. c., and the latter said to be the best price, repeat- able. with 37c the best bid for this grade outside, and sellers at 38c. PE.Asâ€"â€"â€"Ratl)er unsettled; sales of car lots lying outside it 53§c, at 54c and at 541m.

Since our last report of the horse market the demand has improved considerably both from local and American buyers and a large volume of business has been trans- acted, but at very low prices, so much so that dealers in many cases have lost money on their stock, consequently the trade on the whole has been very unsatisfactory. The shipments of horses to the ‘United States so_far this season have been large, and the indications are that they will con- tinue so for some time yet. as the supply of horses in the States is not large at pres- ent. At the Montreal Horse Exchange at Point St. Charles the following sales were made: Thirty-nine head at prices ranging from 90 to $125 each.
