The depression of business 10 England
Is declared by recent correspondents to be
very deeply rooted. The railroad com
panies complain that they have very little
agricultural produce to carry. The North
British Railroad reports falling off $4,000
per week on the goods traffic. In many
localities the potato crop is almost an entire
failure. One station reported usually ships
over 300 car loads of potatoes, but this
year shipped only two. To show how in-
timately all industries are connected to.
gether, it is stated that, owing to the hard
times, the demand for candles has much
diminished, and almost all purchased are

which ended Sept. goth, sales of home.
grown wheat in the British markets were
$4,000 quarters, as against 242 900 during
the corresponding week of 1878; if the
whole month be taken, the deliveries of
wheat have been restricted to 245 900
quarters, us against S07 600 quarters in
the previous year. We note also that
the quantity of wheat which has been i'm
ported into England during these four
weeks has been 6,522 1908 centals, and her
imports of -four, during the same period
have been 720,712 centals. In round
figures, the English wheat importatious
have doubled since 1876, while the Eng.
lish home produce has, in the same period
decreased by two thirds.

The year Is gone, forever gone,
Gone 10 retune no more
is last faint pulse is beating now,
Against The eternal shore;
The throbbings Of is restless heart
In solemn numben swell,
Lake munled notes that rike at eve
Prom some far distant bell.
Breathing upon the stilly air,
mounful funeral kncll
It's gone with all its smiles and lcar,
Gone. with lis dews aud flows,
Gone, bearing ON It's breast away
The dearest ones Of our
1t passed, and strongest pulses clas,ed
With life's warm tide TO thrill
Bright eyes grew dim, and son cheeks pale
And loving hearts stood still,
And many chair stands vacant nov.
Which none again may Gll
Lord, If within the coming year
Thou call us from LIES sea,
o. take us 10 thy home above,
To reign and rest with thee:
Take US to live above the sky.
Beyond the lapse Of years,
Where there is no more night nor death
No parting and no tears;
Where one long day Of glory dawns
And never disappears.
