OF the Peers, nothing has been done; and even the
Ministerial "De6atS,' in spite of its unconquerabe
optimism, is compelled to confess that neither the
Cabinet nor the Conservative party could outlve
another such session. The Deputies have fastened,
head over heels, homeward, happy to be relieved
from Parliamentary co-rcsponsibilIty, leaving the
Ministers the short time till the next session to see
how they can cxtrcate themselves from this labyr-
NTH OF charges of corruption, fraud secret machna-
tons, and from the pcrplexities of foreign affairs.
And Germany! In Germany the Emperor Barba-
rosa still sits in his cavern with the ravens flying
ing about him; his beard has grown few inches
longer around the stone table, where he has so long
sat waiting for the birth of the German Empire.
People think he will sit there as much longer, and
that the ravens whose duty il is 10 fly about the ca
ycrn and watch his sleep, will become super
annuatcd and be pcnsioncd off. Look at the Ger
man journals-what solemn, Sunday stillness-what

Even the important question of periodicity is now

nothing is going on, in the other German Fatherlands
we shall find nothing at all. In Bavaria they drink
beer and dispute about Lola Monies; in Wirtembcrg

in Baden and on the Rhine they drink their glass and

Commerce of France.-An official document has
Just been published by the French Board Of Com
merce, from which we make the following extracts
The imports into France during 1916 amounted TO
millard PSI millions OF francs, and the exports to
milard $50 millions.
BY comparing this statement with previous returns,
we find that during the five years from the year 1892
to the year 1886 inclusive, the exports of France
cecdcd the imports by 239,000,O0Of. In the SUISSE
quent five years the imports exceeded the exports
by II millions, and in the five years following, viz
from 1872 to 1916 inclusive, the imports exceeded
the exports by 573 millions.
The next observation to be made is, that Of the ,
miiaris 437 millions worth of produce exchanged
between France and foreign countries, - per cent,
or milard 1855 millions, were transported by
Of these S2S millions conveyed by French
ships, and 926 millions by foreign vessels
