OUR TRADE WITH BRAZIL.

The balance of trade between this country and Brazil is greatly against the United States In the twenty one years ending 1879 the balance in favor of Brazil was $443, 267,- 846. In the same time the trade between England and Brazil resulted in balance of $15, ,104, ,579 in favor of England, and the trade between Brazil and France in balance of $38, ,099, 300 in favor of the latter country In that time England sent to Brazil exports to the value of $616, ,S03 716 France exports to the value of $353, ,263 9OO and the United States exports to the value of $132, ,253, ,934 only.
 This is not very good showing for the United States, and it has long been appar ent that something ought to be done to make the trade of this country with Brazil better. But what shall be done? Salvador de Mendonca, the Brazilian consul-general, says the United States might control the bulk of the Brazilian trade if they would, but the merchants here do not go about it in the right way. The first requisite for suc- cessful trade between the empire and the republic is frequent and rapid communica- tion between the two countries by an Ameri- can line of steamers. The United States and Brazil Steamship company has a line of fine steamers with excellent passenger ac- commodations and large carrying capacity but there are not enough steamers on the line. If they had steamers going direct to Rio and others running. down, stepping at the intermediate ports, they now do, the great bulk of trade would, he thinks, be done by that line. The Brazilian govern ment was so impressed with the necessity of having an American line that they granted a subsidy to it. Even those who are on principle opposed to subsidies saw the necessity of one in the present case. voice. Anything that is done by either country to foster American line between here and Brazil will not be lost, but will be of great benefit to commerce. The triangular l commerce carried on by British steamers by means of which Brazilian coffee is carried to the United States and bills on London taken in payment, aggravates the situation, for Bra gil supplies herself with goods in England which she could not buy in the United States. For acting as carrier and banker England receives annually 1215 per cent on
 
 Empire. The principal market of Brazilian coffee is the United States and Brazil in re- 1 turn for her coffee would be glad to get man | ufactured goods, machinery and such other articles as she needs and the United States could furnish her.
 Direct cable communication between this country and Brazil is another thing much l needed. The English cable company paid a dividend of fourteen per cent. on capital of $9, ,000, 900 last year and one-half of that they 1 derived from American business It will 1 probably not be long before there will be di- | rect cable communication between this eoun- I try and Brazil, company is now being ] formed to bring it about. It is high time 1 that the business men of this country woke | up to the situation. There does not seem to be any good reason why they cannot trade extensively and proftably with Brazil.

 From the London Times!
 The demand for animals for exhibition in Europe and in civilized America has armed enter prising hunters with net and trap: and sent them far into the wilds of unexplored Africa The Soudan, part of that cont1- nent to which attention and even anxiety are now directed, has long been hurting ground for the providers of the great dealers like Mr. Jamroch, whose repository at East-end London has been so frequently described. The difficulty of catching some of the ami mals is very great A hippopotamus, for in- stance may be netted; but he is a very big ss6shn to land safe and well, to send over hundreds of miles of Soudan tracks, to ship sound and in good condition, and to land at a European port after a sea voyage. The cost of such an undertaking is very great and not infrequently is incurred i'll Valn Delicate animals torn from the steaming swamps and ready thickets in which they de- light are very apt, after all the pains and risk of capturing them, to die upon their ensla- vers' hands.
 Perhaps the king of beasts is as hardy as any of his subjects At least he suffers less in captivity than the majority of them, if we may accept as proof the frequent le- onine families which bring rejoicing to the Geological gardens of London and Dublin. So keen is the pursuit of genuine wild beasts in the Soudan and the regions adjoining that within very few years travellers have noted remarkable falling off in big game. Between the sportsmen who go fully equipped for slaughter from this and other countries, the natives, now better armed than formerly, and the snare1s who seek live specimens for MT. Jamroch and hls brethren. the monarchs of the desert and forest are having hard time of 1t just now, and have little to thank steam for ln bring ing the white man into the heart ot their fastnesses

 medicine. Look 1t over.
 T have a medicine more perfectly adapted to it's various applications than Thomas Eclectric Oil. I for many years sufferer from Quinsy; Thomas Eclectric Oil cured me. My wife and child had diphtheria; Thomas Eclectric Oil cured them; and if taken in time will cure seven times out of ten. confident it is for the most obstinate cold cough, and if taken into the head, by the nostris two three times week will relieve the most offensive of catarrh; and not withstanding the delicate nature of the membrane of the nasal organs can be taken up with perfect impunity. For deafness and earache it has done wonders, to my certain knowledge. It is the only medicine dubbed patent that have ever felt like recommending, and am anxious to see it in every place. for tell you I would not be with out it in the house for any consideration. It also operates in Asthma specific and whenever it is used it becomes indispensable to household safety. I am ready to give anyone the benefit of my perence and observation, both to its effects and mode of application, if they will drop me note making inquiry"

When avery small child his body was almost entirely covered with this loathsome eruption. It mostly passed away, however after the teething period, and he was not seriously troubled with it again until abou one year ago, when the Salt Rheum first appeared his hands between his fingers then on his limbs, then on his face and head in one solid mass.
