Referring TO the prospects Of trade in
| Canada this season, the Toronto Leader
says The accumulation OF grain al
the different ports of the lakes IS re-
garded by forwarders as considerably
larger than last year. 1t is worthy Of
mention as o new feature in trade that
large quantities of oatmeal are to besent
forward from ports on Lake Ontario to
Europe. One forwarding firm here has
arranged to carry Is, 600 to 20. 900 barrels
to Montreal for transportation to ocean
vessels bound for Europe. Enormous
quantities Of slaves are to be shipped
from Hamilton and other points for Que
bee the business in this article will un-
doubtedly much exceed that Of last year.
A good deal of lumber is also TO be for
warded from the different lake ports,
offering q very fair amount of business
for vessels.
