GERMANY AND ENGLAND.

Count Won Moltkes's speech on the
~'ironclad Loan" made to the North Ger
man Parliament q few days since, de-
servvs even more attention than it has re-
ceived. The Government of Berlin,
which carries its thrift into every depart
ment, had asked the Confederate Diet for
the very moderate sum of $3.50, 000L for
the purchase of ironclads, which, man.
ned by S~chleswigers, HoIsteiners, and men
from the Baltic seaboard, will, it is be-
lieved, suffice to make of North Germany
a respectable Naval power. The Liber-
ais, with q want of tact which they too
often display, resisted the demand, on
the ground that Parliament ought to have
more control over the expenditure of the
loan. The Kings government--0r Pre-
sident'S government, as it ought to, be
called when the affair concerns all North
Germany-threatened to abandon the
feet rather than yield the point; and the
public, aware that the Army has been
made what it is by executive absolutlsm,
aware also that stinginess, not extrava-
gance, is the vice of Berlin depart
ments, and bitterly disappointed in its
hopes Of maritime power, did not
heartily support the Liberals, who found
it expedient to accept a compromise.
Parliament, as we understand a not very
clear arrangement, is 10 have as much
power, over the naval as over the militia
nv expenditure, but no more,-tbat is to
say, the House can regulate the amount
and direction of outlay. but not the par
ticular object upon which it ought to be
expended. In the course of the debate
Count Won Moltke, speaking in the alb
sence of the Premier for the whole Cabi-
net, took occasion to explain his view of
the position he hopes and intends that
Germany should hold in the world. That
view is, at least, as important as Count
Won Bismarck's for the great Prusslan
strategist is more than a necessary man,
or even than the great soldier all Europe
believes him to be. He isStbe virtual
head of that military "family' which
surrounds every Continental monarch,

lin. and (which is very often the deposita-
ry of a policy as important as that, of the
State, the policy that the Royal House
at heart desires to pursue. Count Won

Sugar making is yet IN progress on
many estates in the interior of the coun.
try, and the yield of canes and the quanti-
ty Of sugar are yet favourabIy reported
The wind has been in tolerable supply,
so that the progress has been consider
able /; and with few exceptions, there is
little doubt there will be a very small por-
ton of canes remaining on the land, at
the end of the present month, unless IN
forseen h%indrances be very great. We
mentioned in our last notice that som OF
the crops in the Market Hill District had
reached satisfactory termination. We
have since learned a few particulars,
shelving an immense return. AT Betdir
the property of ]. d. CARTER, Esq the
whole being only IS acres, The crop has
been 46 hhds. while at Market Hill in
the same district, 80 hhds. have been
made from 6 acres of plant canes, and
the same quantity Of second crop. shew-
ing an average yield of over % hhds. per
acre, the whole property being 10 acres.
The packages in both instances are only
80 inch truss, but there is no denying
that the returns in both cases are enor-
nous. 1t must be borne 10 mind howev-
er that although small properties general
ly shew larger returns of crops in pro-
portion than estates of first class, the
crops of the former for the most part re-
present everything, all the requirements
of the property whereas on the large
estates which are thoroughly we'll con-
Quoted, there are other things in aid of
meeting expenses besides the sugar crop.
There is Il large rental, there is the rear
ing Of cattle &C. At HoggaH Hall the
crop has been closed at 339 hhds. 40 inch
truss. At Castle Grant in St. Joseph be-
longing to the same proprietor, 900 hhds.
are now expected. We understand that
in consequence Of the large yield which
is being obtained at Mount Wilton from
rattoon canes, the final figure of the
crop will greatly exceed the primary ex-
pectation. Some of the second crop at
Castle Grant have made 3 hhds. per acre.
Fisher Pond and AndreWS, always men
toned together, are figuring handsomely
and are reported TO be about to excel in
their respective returns for 1868, their
largest previous crops. When Fisher
Pond, some fortnight past had made 900
hhdS. 80 acres of canes rmalned on the
land to be taken off; and the expectation
at Andrews is for $50 hhds. More east
ward in the same line beyond the fertile
lands of Speet Bottom in st. Georges,
we have Haynes Field, Hothersal, CW-
ton Hall, the Pool in st. Johns all near
ing the close of immense crops; and the
whole of the Cliff doing we'll. At Ash
ford the crop will reach the high figure
of 40 hhds. On the hills of st. Georges
