There hue been a great falling off iu onr trade with Spain during the huff ten years. The total value of this commerce last year was only §14,544,718, of which exports from the United States amounted to $10,912,745. The balance in our favor was $7,280,772. Of course the bitter feeling in Spain against this country since the Cuban in¬ surrection began has liuit much to do with the rapid decline of our Spanish trade, but Spain has never been one of onr large customers, nor have wo ever bought much from Spaiu. Iu several European countries onr manufacturers of agricultural implements have built tip a great business but agriculture Spain is still conducted in very primitive stvle. The people generally have never taken to improved farming implements and farm machinery is ulmobt unknown among them. Our pnreha-es of Spanish wines have been reduced by tho advance m wine¬ making in tliiscountry, especially in Cal¬ ifornia. Cotton is our chief export to Spain, but it goes there iu very small quantities compared to what we sell to England aud Germany. Our imports of iron ores from Spaiu fell from 482,551 tons in 1890 to 175,000 tons last year. We have been buying cork, argol, hides, fruits, nuts, wines aud glycerine from Spain, but the bulk of these imports have decreased rapidly. Spain has always been a staunch be¬ liever in tho efficacy of a protective tariff as a stimulant to her industries and she is incomparably behind every ot her nation of Europe except Turkey in in¬ dustrial progress. Spain’s commercial policy has been as complete and dismal a failure as her management of her colonies; she has hardly lost territory faster than she has lost trade. Folks Items. (by honeysuckle) Ah!

Russia is load of §12,000,000, and more significant still, she is raising it in Germany.—The Bank of England is directing its energies to the accumulation of a gold reserve, it fashion without recent precedent, while Jap&n, riot content with the Vast sums she received froth China on Saturday, ik preparing for a fresh loan for ,£15,000'- 000. The reapproachment between Ger¬ many and Russia and Austria is vory marked.” All this, the St. james Gazette believss portends a combination against Amoridt and Great Britain, as "we are universal¬ ly regarded as farming part of this trims- , Atlantic aggression on Eulo-pe,” and the * Vtide " ai ' ns Great Brltain to P ri 'P are for a struggle which may involve the —**—••*.**. is- *4 Napoleofi.” ! ^ Conclusion the St. James Gazette 1 retoarke: I ,,A "Europe - believes .
