The WEE TRADE OF FRANcE.-Fivs
million acres Of French Soil are devoted to
grape culture, producing annually over so0-
coo, 900 gallons of wine, at an average cost
Of 10 cents per gallon. From its cheap
ness, it is the almost universal drink Of tho
people. In Paris it is computed that eack
inhabitant consumes PIG bottles Of wine in
the year. In the wine districts of France;
each petson, takes 73O bottles in the same
period. While wine is thus 4 universal
beverage with the Frenchman, the English
man spends his money for coarser and more
stimulating beverages. The population ef
Great Britain, upon most correct estimate:
consume 4oO, 600, 900 gallons of ale and beer
over &c, 900, 600 gallon Of spirits, and g.
500, 900 gallons of wine. -.
The average yield of French vineyards il
$50 gallons per acre, and the total annual
value Of the producs,$s4 900, 900. H.:
o0o, 900 gallons of brandy are distilled from
IS, 100000 gallons Of wine, and the guam
titY exported Of wine and brandy is only
Of the entire production. The
total value Of the brandy annually produced
in France is about $l2 ,ooo, 900, at an av.
srage cost Of 4s cents per gallon. The cul:
lure. manufacture and selling Of French
wines employ 2,ooo,o 900 people. 7l

The GREAT EAsrERN.-This nautical
prodigy, according to the last accounts from
Europe, is nearly completed, and will sail
from England on the lst Of September
Her dimensions and tonnage are thus given,
IN Parliamentary return Just issued:
Length, 697.6
Breadth, 82.S
Depth of hold, BIG
Tonnage exclusive Of engine room, 1894
Gross tonnage, 1876
At the public entertainment given on
board this ship in honor of her completion,
Lord Stanley said if this experiment sue
ceeds, 1t will have reduced by one half the
distance in point of time which now divides
continents and nations which nature has
separated by intervening oceans, it will
be greater step, greater progress in the
art of ship building, than has ever been ac
complished in our generation; it will render
the passage over the stormy ocean to remote
countries as easy and as free from diseom
fort as the railway train is at present; ii
will stimulate and develope trade to an al
most incalculable extent; it will enable Eng
land to pour into the great empire Of the
East, in case of need, reinforcements and
aid with q rupidity equal to that Of the over
land line, and by a route over which no
foreign potentate can exercise control.
j., She is calculated to carry population
Of not less than 10000, including the crew.
Her completion, should she fully succeed,
70 an event in history.

AND CONSTANTLY INCREASING.
The Charter of this Company offers more favora-
BILE advantages TO the farmer and Others thah any
Company chartered in the State, by insurng
with or without Il premium note. Ii the applicant
prefer he can pay the full amount OF the premium
in cash, or by cilectng cash insurance for two
wears the insured saves ghta OF the amount
he would otherwise have to pay; or by becoming
member and giving small premium note the IN
sured saves nearly one half of the amount charged
by Stock Companies, when insuring from year to
year. This is the advantage resulting from the
combination of the
CASH AND MUTUAL PRINCIPLE.
This Company commenced issuing Policies
against loss or damage by fire. on the 18th day OF
March, 1884, since which time over seven thousand
seven hundred persons have insured and become
members of the Company, and over seventy thou
sand dollars have been paid for losses. Having
increased our business during the past year. we feel
grateful for the liberal patronage bestowed upon
the Company thus far, and for its nattcring pros
poets of future usefulness. The Directors hope
and believe that BY prudence, caution, and rigid
system of economy, they will establish Tor tins
Company \ reputation for cheapncss and safety
not surpassed by any Company in the Y. States.
All differences in settlement of losses, may be
determined by three disnerested arbirators OF the
County where such loss happened, to be mutually
chosen by the insured and the Company.

TlRED-The Universal Review, British,
in a notice Of the works of DIR. Mackay and
Colcy Grattan on America, says: Most
voyagers in America repeat the same thing
over and over again. We are rather tired OF
hearing that the hotels are of enormous SIZE;
that you can have your clothes washed by
steam that the lake steamers are the most
luxurious in the world that the ladies dress
in an exaggerated style Of fashion. and that
most persons eat in n tremendous hurry"
