MEMORIAL DAY.-Gen. Daniel White, Com
mander of the Department of Maine, G. A r i,
has issued the following order General Orders,
No.2,) respecting the observance of Memorial
Day
1. In accordance with the custom instituted
by the Grand Army of the Republic, the sixth
annual observance of Memorial Day will occur
on Friday, the Both inst
III. 1t is therefore recommended that in this
Department, such steps be taken by the several
Posts of the Order, to decorate the graves of
the heroic dead, and by other services exhibit
our regard for their memory, as shall be most
appropriate and best adapted to the circum-
stances of the comrades in the different To-
calities; and all comrades residing in sections
where no Posts exist, are desired to assume to
themselves the sacred duty of decorating the
graves of all soldiers and sailors in their vicin-
ity, thereby showing that our old comrades, al
though sleeping in comparatively unknown
graves, are not forgotten and by this testimony
to their lives and services for the Union, we
shall show to the world that neither they nor
the cause for which they fought, are forgotten
by their comrades who still live.
III. 1t is hoped that the Recommendation of
the Commander-in-Chief, in regard to the CO.
operation of the clergy of the country, will be
carried into effect as far as possible, and in ac-
cordance Herewith, the Department Com
mander hereby respectfully invites the clergy
men of the different societies in this state to
devote part of the service of the Sunday imme
diately preceding Memorial Day to the memory
of those who, in the hour of danger answered
promptly their country's call, and suffered and
died for the holy cause of Union and Liberty.

Our Foreign Trade.

The New York Chamber of Commerce has
published valuable volume of statistics of
the foreign trade of the country. The tables
in the work cover the fiscal year ending June
Both 1872. These statistics as a total have
been presented before bit in connection with
what follows, it is proper to state that the to-
tai imports Of the country deducting re.ex-
ports were for that year $617, $3.50, 500 gold val
ne, and the exports reduced to the same valu-
alton were $500, 1914 giving an excess of
imports over exports Silt ,369,S25.
One feature in connection with this foreign
trade that has not been shown heretofore is of
special lterest-that of the distribution of
our foreign trade among the various countries
with which we DEAL 1t is quite possible that
in connection with the following figures, not
few who have considered themselves well
posted will be surprised.
The following are the countries from which
the imports have been considerably in excess
of the exports, both being reduced to gold
basis:
The Portland daily press., 1873-05-17

One fact that will strike the reader in
connection with these statistics is, that the ex-
cess of imports from the island Of Cuba alone
is nearly half Of the total excess of imports to
the country. 1t will surprise many to see
that Brazil comes next in the list of our credi-
tors and that Great Britain stands as a debt
or. 1t also appears that our exchanges with
countries in North and South America and the
Caribbean Sea are about one-fourth of our to-
tai foreign trade. 1t farther appears that
those countries that show balance Of trade
against this country are those that have
pro ducts that cannot be produced at home or
are largely such raw materials as are required
by our manufactures while such nations as
Great Britain. which produce such manufac-
tured articles as naturally enter largely into
competition with those produced at home APP
pear as our debtors. This shows the growth
and importanc. of the manufacturing inter
ests of the United States

AN INVOLVEMENT APPETITE - The late
Thaddeus Stevens had nephew who was pos
sessed of seeming uncomfortable appetite for
liquor. In his will he left him large amount
of property under certain stipulations, the chief
of which was that he should abstain from the
use of stronr drinks. These conditions having
been broken, the executors are about to apply
the vendue of bis estate, estimated variously
from $4,000 to 100000, to the founding of the
Orphan Home in Lancaster, Penn, designed
by him in case of such failure.

A Wise Selection.

AT meeting of the tiustees of the College
of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts in this city
yesterday afternoon, Hon. S. L. Goodale of
Saco, was unanimously elected to the respon-
sble position of Professor of Agriculture in
that institution. We are informed that Mr..
Goodale has not concluded to accept the posi-
ton, but has it under advisement. The
trustees, fully aware of the Importance of
securing gentleman for the position combin-
ing in so high degree the rare qualifications
OF scientific and practical agri ,ulturist, will
use every possible means to secure favorable
result. 1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Goodale
will accept. Aside from the fact of his en-
inent qualifications for the position, no man
in that department is so we'll known to the
farmers of the State as Mr.. Goodale. All in
telligent farmers have received great advan
tage from his public services, and the con-
fidence they have in his ability will cause
them to look with greater favor upon the
Orono college. Mr.. Goodale understands the
wants of Maine considered in an agricultural
View, knows its capacities and the means for
their development better than any other man,
and bis connection with the college is of the
utmost Importance, not only to the school
but to the agricultural interests of the State
at large. The general observer cannot fail to
see that eat changes are taking place in the
agriculture Of Maine. Just now, more than
ever. our people are experimenting in new
branches and trying new methods. The new
interest taken in cheese factories is an illus
tration Of the fact. The Professor in Ayri-
culture at Orono should have such know
ledge of the agricultural demands of the
State as to be able to give direction to future
development and practically transfer to that
prcfessorship whatever authority the State
may assume in that department. Mr.. Good
ale is the only man in tie State that can do
this; and for that reason alone, he should be
induced to give the college and the State the
results of his long experience and practical
and scientific knowledge.
