Rober, g. Brittou ofM.pehsst., ENGLAND

Robert 8. Britton. Of Manchester, England,
who WAS visiting this country recently. gives
some very intsrssting ~ well ~ surprising
information in regard to the condition Of the
farmers in England: The current prices for
landed estates in England, he says. have de.
clinsd at least S34 per cent within the last
ten years. "Our farmers are bsgiusing to
realize the fact that they can not raise wheat
and small grain to compete successfully in
the market with the American farmer. The
consequence is that our farmers are turning
their attention in other directions and devote
much care and time especially to the raising
of poultry, lambs. cattle and small fruits,
which offer better return" Mr.. Britton
alss says that the suffering In ireland il
heartrendering beyond description. and al
though the most liberal contributions have
been made by charitable societies and indi.
viduals. yet it will be impossible to feed and
clothe more than four.ffths Of those who ars
actually destitute.-N. Y, Sun.
