BREAD.-The demand in Europe for our wheat
corn, and other grain is great that all manner Of
vessels chartered to carry those articles there
1t is not confined to the United Kingdom of Great
Britain and Ireland, but in France and Holland
also, our productions find a ready market at high
prices. The French government are purchasing
wheat and -four for the 'army of occupation" in
Algiers, and indeed the people all over Europe
seem TO be hungry, and to have no broadstuff ex.
cept what we supply them with. How often have
we been told that it folly for us to think of ex
porting -four and grain to the Old World when the
region around the Baltic sea could furnish enough
for the whole hemisphere, and that the producers
there could undersen us in any market in Europe
When Great Britain opened her ports for the inn
portaton of these articles, told that il would
be of no benefit TO US, for that her demands would
be supplied from other countries in Europe, and
that we should lose money in the attempt to drive
business in that line; but what do we behold
Flour, wheat, barley, and corn have advanced in
price to such degree that the only trouble con-
corning them in the commercial community is to
procure vessels enough to carry them from our
shores to the hungry millions in foreign lands.
The farmers are busily engaged in getting their
products to market, and 1t is fortunate thing for
them that their crops so large and abundant this
season. The merchants too; are in state of mas
"rly activity, and business Of all kinds is brisk
and profitable owing, undoubtedly, to the great de-.
mand for what the agricultursts produce. This
fact Is important, inasmuch as it furnishes con-
vncng proof that the farmers are indeed the lords
o. the land" Protection to them is protection to
the whole union; for on what they throw into mar.
ket do all the people live and thrive. Those who
have been disposed to underrate her usefulness will
now, we thnk, be Obliged to acknowledge their inn
portauce to the world. Pope says:
oIn Natures chain whatever link YOU strike
Tenth, or enththousandth, breaks the chain alike
but il ia our opnon that If the f,rroor ,Lo,,IJ L.
knocked out Of existence the chain would not only
be broken, but irremediably destroyed 1t seems
TO us, sometimes, when thinking OF these things
that the farmer and mechanic are the only produ.
GERS and that all others are mere spectators
