Our Trade with ItaIv.


 s WASHINGTON, July 8.-The consul of the United States at Naples, in recent dispatch to the Department of State commenting on American trade with the Mediterranean, says that the American flag is rarely seen in that region. Only four American vessels arrived at Naples during 1879. But this is not indica- tive of American trade, of which there is great deal, but not so much as there should be. Foreign vessels are constantly employed carrying American products. The English Anchor Line has been running from New York to the Mediterranean successfully for years. Floria, the well-known Italian ship owner, has recently started regular line be- tween the principal Italian ports and New York, and is having several frst-class 4,OOO ton steamers built for the purpose. At Naples last year l, TOO, GOO bushels of American grain were imported. The failure of the Italian grain crops had much to do with them. Maize is becoming an important article of transpor- tation- American canned goods also in demand. Our improved agricultural machin- cry is being largely introduced.

| International Complications - Russia I and China-Eng1and's Course in Case of l War-The Governments Attitude To- wards Turkey.
 LONDON, July 8.-In the House of Com mons this evening, Mir. GladAtone made care fully considered answers to two questions of which notice had been given yesterday. The first question related to the condition of af- fairs between Russia and China. The Pre- mier said the Government had received no confirmation of the reported defeat of the Russian army by the Chinese forces on the
 frontier. The report was probably false; :; neither the Russian nor Chinese Ambassador
 in London believed 1t. It was most proba-
 ply one of those canards which are so fre-
 quently set going by interested parties in or der to advance their own immediate inter ests. MT. Gladstone went on to say that in the event of war between Russia and China, England would avail herself of the offer made to Russia to enter into friendly con- munication with Her Majesty's Government regarding all questions affecting England B in- terests in the East.
 Replying to second question Gladstone said the Government could give no direct in- formation as to the course which 1t proposed to take in the event of Turkey refusing to comply with and carry out the recommenda- tions of the late conference at Berlin. It should be remembered, he said that the de- cision of the conference had not yet been formally presented to Turkey and that ru- mors concerning the intentions of the latter power to refuse compliance with this decision were at least premature. ''We have usually found,' added Gladstone, ''that when there was real and earnest union among the great powers, the Sublime Porte wisely deferred to their judgment and adopted their conclusions It would be unwise and disrespectful to the Porte to anticipate it's answer in the present instance" Some sneers were observed in the House when Mir. Gladstone spoke of the ne- cessity of being respectful to power which not long ago he had denounced as being un- worthy of living, and whose people he had derided as ''the unspeakable Turks"
