fact that Europe begins this ensuing year with most
unusually deficient stock Of food In ireland alone the
food Of 100000 human mouths has persisted The fail
ure Of the root in other countries amounts pro-
badly to at least equal deduction from the aggregate
supply. Throughout the continent the lower descrip
tons of corn, occupying the place as the po-
in Ireland, have partially in some places to-
tally, failed. In very few places is the wheat
crop more than an average one The food of the
doubt whatever that it is seriously deficient II
is impossible to mystfy that fact All the differences as
compared with the crop of last year, which we now
know TO have been unequal to the demand in the d.

Some Of course will point the Atlantic In
tms'ing the power of the nited States TO supply the de-
their exporting power That is all that we have to do
with; AMI everybody who has watched the history Of
the trade for few months, knows how little
America really export and how powerfully the
smallest rise of demand operates on her power Of sup

The alarm OF the populace In the provincial towns has
