In seven years from 1868 &C
1871, the excess of females over
males in Germany increased by
fourteen per cent, the surplus fe.

eight hundred thousand. Although
no inconsiderablc portion of this
loss to the German male popula'
ton is due to actual slaughter on
the battle field, it is undoubtedly
caused principally, by emigration
Even if emigration could now be

trade consequent on decline Of
profits is the chief cause of the
accumulation of money, aud the
real question is why have profits
declined. The new fields of indus.
try on which the Edinburgh Re.
viewer discanted remain open, but
the profits of capital in them seem
to have fallen off, or, at all events
are not RENTED home to the cap
italists. 1t is obvious enough that
the immediate prof of the EN-.
ployment of capital in the Western
States of America have been over
estimated, or rather that their ca
paclty of sustaining high profit was
estimated. his is shown by
the falling off upon the return Of
he capital which has been sunk in
Industrial enterprises, such as rail
ways in those States. People for.
got how rapidly competition brings
down the exceptional profits of
virgin area. The wave has been
sent back upon us, and the present
depression of trade is the counter>
part of its recent activity. Seven
per cent. has been followed, by a
natural law, by two per cent.
The interesting question, il we
could solve it would be how long
the process of depression may be
expected to endure; but we are sor-
ry to say that no answer can be
given to this inquiry. The return
of prosperity mainly depends upon
the development of the processes
of industry which is constantly go
ing on so as to lessen the cost of
production. The inhabitants of the
States and colonies whose growth
caused such a remarkable increase
of trade at home over-estimated
their powers until they found they
were engaged in exchanges no
longer profitable to them selves.
But we may be quite certain that
they will soon be able 70 produce
their own commodities more cheap
ly than they have done, aud as the
cost Of production with them will
d'minishcontemporaneously with a
diminution here, there will be on
both grounds a reyivalof commer~
cial intercourse. No one con now
tell how long this process of re>
covery will take. We may from n
consideration of former periods Of
depression of similar character
to the present, hazard conjectures
as to the duration of the present
one, but guesses on the subject
would be idle. 1t is enough to
know that experience through
which we are now passing is psrt
Of an ordered progress returning
upon itself as surely as spring
follows winter.
