It is a crumb of comfort to know that while the United States is losing ground in comparison with Great Britain in the matter of merchant marine, it is not the only coun- try in that condition. The London Econo- mist prints table showing what proportion of the shipping entered at and cleared from the ports of each country foreign in specified years. It appears that whereas in 1860 less than fifty mine per cent. of the shipping entering and departing from French ports was foreign, in 1880 the proportion was seventy per cent. Russia, Germany, Italy and Spain show similar state of af- fairs. The only difference between these cases and our own is one of degree, but it is great difference In 1860 only twenty nine per cent. of the shipping entering or depart ing from our ports was foreign, but in 1881 the proportion was eighty-two per cent larger in fact than that of any other country except Russia
