ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE LEDGER
A statement of the commerce Of the United
States during the fiscal year ending July
1st shows q satisfactory balance in favor of
this country. The excess of exports is rep
resented by $685. 600, indicating am addi-
ton of this immense amount of capital to
the channels of commercial activity. This
not only is proof Of healthy condition, as
we are producing and selling more than we
are using and buying, but it proves also
that movement of capital may soon be
anticipated in the direction of productive
industry, as this volume of export must
tend largely to reduce the surplus Of over
production, which has been given as the
cause of our present business inactivity.

Morse MUsIC.-A characteristic vein of
musical endowment runs through the Nor
wegian nature. The folk songs and ma
tional dances of the peasants are very re-
markable. They are the invention for the
most part, of nameless spillemend."
handed down from generation to genera
ton of the local fiddlers, without whom no
peasant marriage or other merry making
can possibly be carried on. Halfdan Kierulf
and Edward Grieg have arranged some in
teresting collections of these quaint and
plaintive airs, and in their own compost
tons an unmistakable national strain is
always traceable. The name of Johan
Svenasen is now known, along with that of
Grieg, throughout the musical world. but
Kierulfs exquisite songs deserve a wider
popularity than they have attained outside
of Norway, and Nordraak, a composer who
unfortunately died very young, claims
mention by reason of his mastery setting
of Bjornson's finest lyrics. The great name
in the record of Norwegian music, how
ever, is that of Ole Bull who died in 1880.
He was in his way tone poet of the most
original, but remained to the end simply
an upland "spillemand raised to the
highest power. Both as composer and vir-
tuoso, he was Norwegian of the Norwe-
gians, and his name is justly held in rever-
ence by the country which his art may be
said to have interpreted to the whole world.

The FRENCH As CoLoNIzERs. = The
French moral fiber is not strong enough
to withstand the enervating and demoral-
izing effect of debased oriental life. In
stead of raising the natives to their own
level they fall to the level of the natives.
and by this process they lose all
title to respect, as well as all the
influence for good which should at
tach to them as belonging to a higher
and Christian civilization. With the loss
of respect goes also the confidence of the
natives in the justice ard fair dealing OF
their conquerers, and the French have no
other weapon than the chassepot with
which to encounter the dislike and un-
willingness to submit thus engendered.-

How q Dead Woman Talked with

PORTLAND, ME, March l0.--There is
great excitement among Spiritualists
and others in regard 10 facts, or alleged
facts. connected with the recent death
of Mrs. Fossett She died after brief
sickness, and her remains were made
ready for the grave. In the night lady
one who had known the deceased well
entered her room and sut down ear
the body, and was looking intensely
upon the features that had been so dear
to her In life. She could not restrain her
tears and said aloud, "Where are you
now?" At the sound of her voice the
dend woman moved, turned over on her
side and ut last sat up. The eyes
opened, and in thrilling voice the
woman who had been dead, but VINO
lived again. spoke. Mrs. FOssett said
she had been in heaven; that she had
there enjoyed the happiness 1t was be-
beyond her power to tell; that she had
met and talked with her mother, long
dead. and with other friends. For
some time Mrs. Fossett talked, giving
her awe-stricken listener description
of her experience In the spirit land.
Gradually her voice grew fainter, ana
she fell back on the bed clad, us she was,
in her grave clothes. As the last words
were spoken the spirit took It's iinal de-
parture and returned no more. Some
people believe that the lady saw vision
In dream, but she Is convinced 1t was

and talked with her. Others think II Ia
