The statistics of the foreign trado ol
Canada lor 1889, the Boston Journal re
gards as interesting. As usual, tin
United (states and Great Britain took
most of the Canadian trade—about 90
per cent, of the whole, reckoning exports
and import* together. The United States
iu 1888 led Great Britain in both, taking
from Canada 47.20 per ceut. of her ex
ports, as compared with 44.44 per cent,
exported to Great Britain, and selling to
Canada 50.06 per cent, of her imports,
against 88. 5 fl gold by Great Britain. In
1889 the exports of Canadian products
to this country amounted to $36,503,297,
the exports to Great Britain to $33,504,.
344. This is a falling off as compared
with 1888, of $873,87S in exports to this
country, and of $144,003 in exports te
Great Britain.
The New York Press says: “We have
had another unhappy exhibition, this
time in Philadelphia, of the misfortune
attending American heiresses who mari e
foreigners for their titles. The shame
less little Count di Montercole, who mar
ried Miss Knox, of Pittsburg; who choked
his bride in Paris because she would not
give him money; and who has turned out
about as worthless a specimen or human
ity as can anywhere be found, placed
himself on a street comer in the Quakei
City and distributed circulars assailing
his wife and her friend*. There was for
tunately j law to reach the Count, and he
was hauled before the police court and
fined S2O for misdemeanor. The mortifi
alion of thi Counters over the revela
tion of the utter absence of manly qual
ities iu the man she married for a title
must be deep and painful. Wn should ;
not allude tc it but for the warning her I
>ad Cass contains to other American heir
esses not to jfo and do likewise." i
