Why They Prefer American Goods.

England is nervous and not little jealous
because American goods are taking precedence
of her own, in markets where both are in COM
petition. A London Trade Journal recently
asked why this was the case. A merchant at
the Cape of Good Hope replies and points to
the fact that the goods are received in much
better order. "Take axes and hatchets," he
says, "how do they come to the storekeeper
here? Not as most of the English goods do
packed in casks and cases with hundred 9th
er things, their edges sometimes dulled by
contact with parcel of cold chisels. or some
such hardware, and the paper chafed off. No;
they come in neat boxes Of one dozen, packed
In rack inside, turning out from the box Just
as when they were put in. Hatche is in four
dozens; the same with scales, each scale
packed in box by itself, wedged in with
small pieces of wood. These boxes perhaps
add to the cost Of the articles; but the axe box
for instance, is made Of such nice soft white
pine that any firm will give me 2s. or Is. Cd.
for it, and this as fast as can empty them.
An American scale is the most salable scale
ever sent to the Cape As regards the axe and
hatchet question, it remains fact that the
English market has not yet sent out the line
to compete with the American. There is no
use Disgusting the fact; it is 50. The handles
are heavier, yet not stronger, and not as we'll
suited for hard days wood-chopping as the
American; and when you come to think that
the only fuel we have is wood, and this has all
TO come under the axe before it enters the
stove you can form some idea Of the enormous
quantity sold in this country. Scales, axes
and cut nails are specified as superior articles
1 enclose sample Of an American cut nail.
Let the English makers turn out an article
like that if they can; if they d.. they may
send it here"

The Sonnet.
How 1t Was First Done into English.

Every one knows that the sonnet was origi-
nally an exotic form imported from Italy into
England early in the sixteenth century by sir
Thomas Wyatt and the Earl Of Surrey. Pe-
trarch, the most distinguished Italian sonneteer
had by his practice conferred recognized au-
thority upon certain laws OF sonnet construc-
ton, and the Petrarchan model was for few
wears faithfully copied by his two English ad-
mirers and imitators. After time, however,
the Earl of Surrey seems.to have come to the
conclusion that the law of Petrarch, which Or
dained that the first eight lines of the sonnet
should have but two rhymes, was decidedly
difficult to obey, at any rate, in England; SO
he became law unto himself and began to
write sonnets consisting OF three quatralns,
each having two rhymes of its own, and con-
Guiding couplet, which made up the requi-
site IA lines OF course this change almost de-
stroyed the peculiar character OF the sonnet,
but nevertheless what may be called the Sur
rey variety" OF the new flower OF poesy be-
came decidedly popular-so popular, that when
Shakespeare came to write his immortal series
of sonnets, he instinctively followed the lead OF
his lordly predecessor. The Earl OF surrey
wat however, by no means the only English
experimenter in sonnet craft. Spenser was
even holder than he, Tor wnue the loriner slinp
ly increased the number OF rhymes, the latter
poet conceived the brilliant idea of doing away
with them altogether, and produced a few SON.
nets in blank verse. He then contented him
self for time with the Surrey model; but he
evidently had an ambition to invent form OF
his own, a feat which he at last performed,
though he can hardly be congratulated upon it,
rs the Spenserian sonnet has the double disad-
vantage Of being less simple than Surveys,
and less artistic than Petrarch's. A few poets,
among whom may be mentioned the Rev.
II. S Hawker, the celebrated Vicar of Morwen-
stow-have made the last line of the sonnet an
Alexandrine; that isa line Of six instead Of five
iambic feet, or twelve instead of ten syllables
Barry Cornwall wrote a sonnet with fifteen
lines, and his example was followed by Sydney
Dobell, poet who was rather fond OF fiouting
the ordinary traditions Of poetry: though in
this case the apparent defiance Of sonnet law
may have been the result of carelessness rather
than Of deliberate intention.

Red Tape at the Antipodes.
The Blasted British Way OF Not Doing
Things.

The Circumlocution Office has BEEN estab-
lished in Australia, and this is how they man
age things in Victoria. The clock stopped in
q magistrates court, and the chairman Of the
bench had the honor to bring 1t under the no
tice Of the Secretary Of the Law Department.
The letter, duly docketed, stamped and red
linked, was forwarded by the Accountant Of
the Law Department to the Secretary of Pub
lie Works, who communicated with the con-
tractor, who in his turn wrote to the Inspector
OF Works. The Inspector writes letter back
20 the Secretary of Public Works, who for
wards il to the Accountant of the Law De-
partment. By this time nearly week has
elapsed when the magistrate gets noto
through the clerk Of the petty sessions, making
the inquiry from the Secretary Of the Law De-
psrtment, sis the clock now going?" 1t was
not. And we shall probably have an account
of the further proceedings by the next Austria
liam mail.
