1t will be seen from these figures that, on an
average of the last farce years, Great Britain
has imported from these countries about
100000 bushels Of wheat and $780,
total value of say s24O1o,OO0. What with
the blockading of ports and the necessity OF
retaining food supplies at home, II may be
anticipated that kngland's supply from the
belis0erentS during the war, Will be almost
nil And considering the poor crops in other
countries from which England draws her sup
plies, she will virtually have to look TO US for
this deficiency of 100000 bushels of grain
THIS, unquestionably, is a most vital item in
the future of our grain trade, and Is calculated
To materially advance prices; the more so as
neither country is likely TO have anything 10
export until the end OF the war.
But what we may thus gain on our exports
of breadstuffs we shall be likely TO lose in
large measure on our shipments of cotton.
Both Russia aud Turkey are large consumers
OF cotton fabrics, the latter country usually
importing S20,0OOOO0 worth year from Eng
land, while the continental demand Is likely
to be depressed and generally crippled con-
dition of the European markets. The feeding OF
large armies and the active employment or
fleets is calculated to cause an important de-
mand for our surplus of hog products and
beef, and the more so as ours is the chief mar
ket to which the belligerents can resort
for these articles. Both countries also have
been wont to buy considerable quantities of
arms and ammunition in this country, and 1t

articles will he larger than usual. Our export
trade will thus have both its advantages and
disadvantages from the new condition OF
things; bait perhaps with considerable bal
ance on the side of advantage. AS to the i'm
port trade, it will naturally be stimulated by
an increase in the value OF exports. Be
sides which, it will be benefited by the cheap
ness of many articles in foreign countries. The
general depression OF business in Europe will
tend towards reducing the price OF a wide
range of manufactures, and the markets of
this country, being least directly affected by
the war, viii naturally be sought as an outlet
AS to the financial bearings of the war, the
way in which the news was taken yesterday
by Wall street shows that something has been
learned from past similar experiences 1t has
been found that an outbreak OF war in Europe
disturbS our exchanges only mOmentarily, and
that of its sure effects is 10 create a prefer
ence for American investments, as least sub
ject to sympathy with fuctuating political in
fiuences. Under this knowledge although
gold advanced yesterday for moment 81
only about ~. The great uncer-
tainty that must surround the issues of
European government, under the danger that
exists of the war assuming European dimen-
sions, is calculated TO induce very important
demand for United States bonds and for the
best of our corporate mortgages; and 1t would
not be surprising to see this effect soon APP
pearing. In short, American credit In all its
forms will stand at an advantage in London
as compared with that of other countries; and
a freer movement IN whatever de-
pecte5 I ~ result Financial Interests are
likely ito be also quickened by a certain
amount OF speculative business produced
through the fluctuations in values and the
greater activity in certain Interests The rail-
roads will be benefited by freer movement
in our exportable products, and the shipping
shipments of the bull1ier commodities. Upon
the whole, therefore, we may anticipate all the
appearances Of n more active movement i'm
general trade and more buoyant tone in
some important markets; but, nevertheless, It
would be n great mistake TO suppose that we
can be enriched, in the long run, from what
impoverishes the rest of the world with which
we have commercial intercourse.
