IT is said that Henry. Irving, the
actor, practices himself in new part
by requiring an understu6y to initiate
his action in the character He will
stand in the wings of the stage and
have the imitation of himself produced
again and again in order that he may

La constitution del nuevo gabinete frances
no deja de tener importacia para nuestro pals por
la direction que indudablemente imprimira aquel
la politica nternacional-mercantil. Figura en-
Ell nuevo gobierno un senior Siegfried, hombre de
escasa talla politica, protestante, de caTacter
muy grave que Sc ha enriquecido con el nego-
clio del aIgod6n. Sc ha ocupado mucho de las
cuestiones obreras, y ha publicado un ibro titu-
lado La Mssere que obtuvo bastante exito. Atri-
bufanse este personaie ideas hbrecambistas mo-
deradas; pero ahora resulta que para formar par
te del ministerio ha impuesto Ia condici6n de
que no Sc haga question de gabinete la aproba-
ci6n del convenio franco-suizo. Mr.. Rlbot,
apurado por el afHn de formar ministerio y por
las excitaciones de Mr.. Carnot, quien cesaba
de recomendarle que toda costa cuanto

que pedia Mr.. Siegfried.

tar arreglo a su conciencia la aprobac16n del

este terreno, nadie duda que ell convenio franco
suizo fracasara en- el parlamento Una vez de-
rrotado dicho convenio, podemos renunciar por
ahora mucho tempo toda idea de tratado
comercial con la repdblica francesa.

propositos de faciitar cuanto possible la acc6n

foreign supplies were only ) pounds to
each nhabilant. while they are now IL

ems, scarcely 4pounds per head were used
whereas we now require over s pounds.
1t appears that three-titths OF all the
