England in Mexico.

4 curious phenomena is presented
in Mexican financial affairs. IL Is
that while American capital, except
that invested in mines, is being
Withdrawn from Mexico, British
capital is flowing in and in greater
volume than ever. The inwardness
Of this peculiar condition OF affairs
seems TO be that American investors
are more practically acquainted
with the possibilities OF Mexico than
their English cousins, and are better
able TO see that, for time at least,
further Investments in Mexico are
not advisable. AT the same time, It
is fact that the United States offers
a profitable field for enterprise that
Americans are not disposed 10 over
look.
Blu. there is another reason for
our examining the economical con-
dition Of Mexico today. The as
cendancy of British capital there is
complete. Last year alone well on
to S75,0O),010 were sunk in rail
ways, lands, mines, public securities,
banks and other enterprises, which.
with previous investments, cOnsti-
tute a tremendous mortgage on
the resources Of the republic, render
ing a maintenance of law and ORDER
4 matter of almost as much impOr-
lance to Great Britain as TO Mexico
itself. Specially ovsF the railway
system Of the country has England
got a firm hold. Hr
The Mexican Railway, the Inter
oceanic and the Mexican Southern
are English companies; the control
of the National capital. and the ma
jOrity CT the first mortgage bonds
OF the Central have passed into
English hands. The money for the
construction Of new railways, con-
cessions for which have been grant
ed by the Government, Will probably
be sought for in London.
The drainage OF the valley Of
Mexico has been undertaken 10y
English capitalists. English banks
, are about to be established, several
million acres of land are owned by
British subjects engaged in cattle
raising, and large proportion Of the
capital raised for mining enterprises
has been found in London. The
activity of English capitalists In all
parts OF the New World is one ofthe
most notable features Of this era.
What the results may be in Mexico
is worth considering.-fRts6tTg-

On the Grindstone.

A hundred years ago or more II

England for men and boys 70 wear
Trousers made Of leather. The his
torian Of the town OF Wells, 30,
remarks that such garments were
not altogether satisfactory, for the
rather curious reason that they last
ed too long.
We remembered hearing ma
tron Of the olden time telling q
story of the two boys OF one OF her
neighbors. They had begged OF
their mother that they might lay
aside their leather trousers, and
have a pair made OF domestic cloth;
but ali their entreaties were in
vain. She would give them no
other encouragement than TO prom
Use that when the leather was worn
out they should have n pair OF homie
spun.
They endured for n long time the
vexation of the unyielding gar
ments, which promised TO be as
lasting as the raiment Of the Israeli
ties in the wilderness.
Finally, all hope failed the boys,
and their wits came to their aid.
They took to the grindstOne. One
sat upon it while the other turned
the crank. In imagination they saw
themselves already clothed in the
long desired homespun.
But alas their hopes were sudden
" blasted. All at once their father
came round the corner Of the barn,

They had still to wear the leather

in the matter Of stationery they are
absolutely stingy, and will cross

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Gen. Antonio
Maceo, one of the leaders in the great
struggle which Cuba made to throw off
the spanish yoke, arrived in this city to-
day, again an exile from his native
island. He was placed on board the
Ward line steamship, Cienfuegos. which
arrived here at noon, in the harbor of
Santiago by Spanish dispatch boat in
pursuance to orders issued by Gen.
Pacenlfia, the new governor-general of
Cuba, who notified the patriot that he
would give him twenty -four hours TO
leave the island, aud Immediately there
after sent force of troops to enforce
the order of expulsion. Gen. Maceo re-
ports Cuba on the verge of another re-
bellion and that Pacenifia, who COM
manded the eastern section at the time
the revolution began, has begun series
of prosecutions since his arrival on the
island, one month ago. Gen. Maceo
Intends to be within call when the strike
IS made and will sail tomorrow for

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-R. G. Dun &
Co. IS weekly review of trade says: An
other large failure, that of Sawyer, Wal
lace & Co. comes at time when the
effects of the Potter-LovelI failure at
Boston prove more disturbing than was
expected. The prospect of speedy &C
ton on the tariff bill in the senate and
considerably better sales by clothing
dealers, have made wool manufacturers
more hopeful, and purchases Of wool are
larger at Boston by 3,l00, 900 pounds,
but concessions have been made to Sc
cure sales on many grades.
The money market is pressing and 1t is
noticed that at Boston and Philadelphia
buyers still act with greater caution.
Prices of I04 grades ct Boston average
90. &c; q shade lower.
The dry goods trade Is decidedly larger
than last year. Iron manufactures is also
more promising, but pig iron is kept
low by heavy supply, and at Pittsburg is
quoted shade lower.
The anthracite coal market is weaker,
The Reading company has resumed work
in many collieries at at advance of
fifteen cents per ton.
Accounts of trade from all parts OF the
country are encouraging this week. At
Boston the money market is pretty stiff,
which affects some trades. Leather in
more quiet and hides firm. Chicago re-
ports smaller receipts of grain than last
year. A decrease of per cent. is
dressed beef because of the stockyards
strike and large decrease in butter, an
increase of 80 per cent. in cured
meats, 200 per cent. in lard
and heavy increase in the
sales of cheese, wool, merchandise and
dry goods exceed last year.
st. Louis notes good trade in nearly all
lines, with crop prospects somewhat i'm
proved. Cincinnati finds business excel
lent IN boots and shoes and healthy il
other merchandise, with an advance in
groceries. From Jacksonville some
brighter reports, and at Savannah business
is brisk 1t is the prevailing opinion that
the second order by the treasurer to pur-
chase bonds insures fairly easy money
market for the fall trade in all branches,
more than 10 per cent. greater
than at this time last year, exclusive of
speculative operations. About per
cent. of the increase Is due to the ad-
vance in prices since last year; the rest
