ters, or about 41 millions above the requirements
for consumption. We have, therefore, a positive
gain in the wheat crop alone of 9 millions of quar-
ters, which, estimated at only 50s. a quarter, is
equal to £22,500,000, or if we can calculate the
saving at 325. per quarter, or 4s. per bushel on
the estimated consumption, it will amount to
£21,880,000, in addition to leaving a surplus of 41
millions of quarters without receiving any foreign
supplies whatever. This is, however, the gain
from the wheat crop alone, but it must be remem-
bered that barley and oats have also been very
abundant, while the quantity of potatoes is be-
yond all former precedent, and, further than this,
the turnip and other root crops are also most pro-
but, in the absence of reliable statistics, it

mising

is very difficult to make even a reasonable calcula-
tion as to the probable gain. The total may, how-
ever, be fairly taken at more than 30 millions, or
above half the annual revenue of the country, a
profit to the nation at large, for which we are solely
indebted to the blessing of Providence, there not
being the slightest pretence that the wisdom or
foresight of man, or the exercise of scientific skill,
which is the boast of the age, had anything what-
ever to do with it. We have already commented
on the peculiar advantage of this bounteous mercy
at the very time when, being engaged in an ex-
pensive war, for the sacred cause of justice, we
were more than ever likely to feel the ill conse-
quences of a monetary pressure, and we have
the more especial reason for making such
a public demonstration of national gratitude as
would show that we are not unmindful of our ma-
nifest duties as a Christian people. We, trust,
therefore, that the suggestion we made last week
will not be lost sight of, but that a Day will be
specially set apart for National Thanksgiving, lest,
haply, our forgetfulness and ingratitude should be
punished by our joy being turned into mourning.

One of the most important results necessarily
y
expected from so abundant a harvest is a corres-
ponding reduction in the price of bread, and some
impatience has naturally been manifested at this
reasonable expectation not having been gratified.
At Nottingham serious riots have taken place, and
attempts at similar demonstrations have been
made in other places. In one town a proposal was
made for the establishment of a Bread Consumers'
Company, in order to counteract a combination of
the bakers, who met the opposition by a simulta-
neous reduction, and very probably the same means
will be adopted in other places. In Liverpool and
the neighbourhood there are great complaints that
the public have not had the full advantage of the
fall in prices, and it may not be without interest
to examine into the justness of these complaints.
Some time since, when the top price of flour was
455. a barrel, the ordinary household bread was 9d.
the 41b. loaf. Flour has now fallen to 255. a barrel,
and yet, the same description of bread is charged
7d. the loaf. The fall, therefore, in flour is 20s. a
barrel, and as this quantity will make 66 loaves,
the corresponding reduction in the price of bread
should have been aid. per loaf, which would leave
the baker rather more profit than before ; but as he
has made a reduction of only 2d., it follows that
the consumer is charged fully lid. a loaf more
than he ought to pay. We do not counsel a resort
to such meastires:aa the men of Nottingham have

taken, but unless a forth

loaf be speedily made it

the prick

.ead, the

public will be fully justified in combining for mu-

tual protection against the monopoly endeavou
to be maintained by the bakers.

Another point of interest in reference to this
subject, is the probable consequences of the recent
fall in price to the many speculators in wheat and
flour. Such changes have often proved very dis-
astrous, and led to monetary difficulties not readily
appreciable by those out of their immediate influ-
ence. We do not, however, believe that this will
be the case to any great extent on the present oc-
casion. The majority of those in the trade made
large profits early in the season—they have long
been prepared for the change, by the knowledge
that, from the great breadth of land in wheat, even
moderately fine weather at harvest-time would add
considerably to the stock of home growth ; and,

moreover, consumption has been so great, that
many large holders have been enabled to clear
themselves at reasonably fair prices. On the whole,
therefore, we may presume that though many, who
have gone into the trade purely from speculative
motives, have been individual losers—the legiti-

mate members of the trade have sustained no in-
jury sufficient to shake *their credit, or to lead to
the inference that upon the year's ac

r operations were
inimical to the interests of the public. In times of
scarcity it is true political economy to diminish
consumption, which can only be effectually done by
enhancing prices, and it must also be remembered,
that, were it not for speculation, we should often be
destitute of supplies at the very time when they
are most needed. To corn speculators we are in-
debted for the large importations by which we
were supplied with food when our home produc-
tion was so scanty, and though it cannot be pre-
tended that the importer has any other object in
view than his own profit, the obvious effect of his
operations is to add to our stock of food, and to

relieve the pressure which would otherwise be felt
from scarcity.

FACTORY LABOUR

IT has often been made an objection to legisla-
tion, during a time of agitation on any subject,
that it is an apparent concession to agitators, and,
therefore, a dangerous precedent, as tending to
enourage insubordination to the laws. Admitting
this view of the case to be correct, it is the
more necessary that the redress of acknowledged
grievances should be made at those times when
the greatest sufferers are the most patient in their
submission. Correction has then all the grace of
a boon unasked, and it is received with far more
gratitude than when wrung by the pressure
from without. It is not long since many thousands
of the operatives in the manufacturing districts
were out on strike, and so stout was the contention
between the masters, who closed their mills, and
the men, who refused to work, unless they obtained
an unintelligible advantage to which they gave the
title of " ten per cent.," that for a considerable
period a reconciliation seemed almost hopeless.
All this is, happily, at an end. After an endurance
of distress which might have been unendurable,
but for the conviction that the greater part was
owing to their own folly, a truce was proclaimed,
and we believe that employment now is very gene-
ral, with the prospect of still further improvement ;
and that the stern lesson taught by the experience
of last winter is not likely to be soon forgotten.
There is also the additional advantage that food is

at a much lower price, with the prospect of a still
greater reduction ; and thus both masters and
operatives have much reason to be satisfied with
their position. These circumstances, therefore,
constitute a fitting time for conceding the long -
coveted boon of a law for reducing the time for the
labour in factories of females and young persons,
to ten hours, such as was intended by the act
passed a few years since, and which was rendered
virtually inoperative through the slovenly con-
struction of the act. It is the great evil of modern
days, that while industry has been elevated into
the foremost rank of social virtues, it has been
made the substitute for every other, until work
has proved a struggle for existence, and every
higher motive sacrificed for the worship of Mam-
mon. The moral and social condition of the work-

ing classes is of infinitely more importance than
the profits of their employers, but the latter appear
to have been the object of all legislation, with little
or no regard to the former. Children of tender
years are ruthlessly sacrificed to the cupidity of
unfeeling parents, and all this has been tacitly
sanctioned by the law, for fear that the profits of
mill-owners, already over-wealthy, should be in
any way diminished. It is to be hoped, however
that the Manchester school no lon

the decisions of the House of Commons, that the
majority are swayed by higher considerations than
mere regard for the meat that perisheth, and that
a time when agitation has been lulled into profound
quietude will not be neglected for granting that
boon to the working-classes of Lancashire and
Yorkshire, which has hitherto been sought in vain

from the Legislature. It is true that Parliament
is equally in a state of rest with the interests which
we advocate ; but advantage should be taken of the
recess, to mature such measures as ought to form
the subject of discussion in the ensui

OUR EXPORT TRADE,

THE returns which have been published each
month by the Board of Trade, of the declared
value of exports of British produce and manufac-
tures, are satisfactory as far as they have gone, in
showing the continued increase of our export trade.
There has, however, been far more light thrown on
the subject, by a report which has been recently
published, showing the various parts of the world
to which the exports have been sent. It appears
by this list that of the total value of exports in
the year 1853, amounting to no less than
£98,933,781, the large proportion of £33,382,202,
or more than a third, was sent to ourown possessions;
so that the Colonies, which it is the practice of
modern statesmen to treat with contempt, are by
far the best customers for our exports. To Aus-
tralia the amount is no less than £14,513,700,
being an increase of more than ten millions ; and
though credit has been given to Free-trade for our
extension of commerce, this item is distinctly
owing to the gold discoveries. To India the
amount is £8,185,695, and to our North American
colonies £4,898,544, the whole of the remaining
colonies being £5,784,263. Of foreign places, our
best customers are the United States, once
British colonies, to which our exports amounted to
£23,658,427, an increase owing more to the
California gold-fields than to any consequences of
Free-trade policy. The places next in order are
Germany, £8,145,081; Holland, £4,452,955 ;
Brazil, £3,186,407 ; France, £2,636,330 ; and
Turkey, £2,208,815 ; but the vast empire of
Russia stands in the list below China, Spain, Bel-
gium, Portugal, Chili, and Peru, the amount being
only £1,228,404, so that this mere fraction of ex-
port trade is all that we lose by the war with
Russia. Taking the trade with our own colonies
and the United States at £57,040,629, our exports
to the whole of the rest of the world are only
£41,893,152, so that the Anglo-Saxon race are the
greatest consumers of British produce.
