A Satisfactory SHOWING.

The change which has taken place in the
volume and value OF our trade with Great
Britain during the past year as compared
with previous years, is at once remarkable
and encouraging. The Boston Advertiser
compares the statistics of the reports OF the
British Board of Trade for the months Vi
January and February OF the present year
with those of the corresponding months Vi
1873. These statistics show that in the ar
ticle of breadstuffs, Great Britain IN those
months of this year imported from this country
4.454.942 hundred weight against 2,433, 991
hundred weight in 1873 As indicating the
extent to which we are supplying Great Brit
ain with the ''staff of lfe' and how far that
great power relies upon us for the same, it
may be stated that in 1878 the imports of
that nation from this country were thirty
four per cent in quantity and thirty-fve per
cent in value while in 1874, the imports had
increased to sixty-two per cent both of guam
tity and value. The value of breadstuffs,
cotton, tallow, etc., imported into Great
Britain from the United States for the first
two months of 1873 was SO, 1926, 331 and ia
the corresponding period of 1874, e12,337,-
POI.
The exports from Great Britain to this
country show change even more remarka
BILE in the other direction. The total exports
from that country 10 the United States fol
the period above named in 1873 were valued
at96,961, 910 against e5,341, 1928 for the cor
rASpnnnipu parind of 1874 From a fa hlQ civ,
ing the amount and value Of all the exports
of Great Britain to this country, is the follow
