In Italy the public revenue increased
from s25O,OOO,OOO, in 1861, to $3.50, 100000,
in 1878; and the aggregate of imports
and exports from $38O,OOO,OO0, in 1869, to
$454,OOO,OO0, in 1872.
Without multiplying illustrations, it
may be said that commerce has every
where wonderfully increased under the
stimulus of the great supplies of gold
from California and Australia. The Lon
don Economist Of May II, 1865, said:
We find here lin Great BrItalnl our external
trade doubled in the last twelve years, and this
external trade Is, we believe, but faint repre-
sentation Of the Increase Of transactions through
out the whole Of our domestic industry. But not
only has this multiplying process been carried
on In those Islands; 1t has prevailed almost as
largely In France, and has spread all over Ger.

It's long lethargy, and penetrated even to the re-
mote proH ces Of Russia. No corner Of Europe

to be filed with metallic money In some form or
another. The truth is that with the present
and extended commerce Of the world far more
mischief and inconvenience viii arise from the
effect Of what seems to be continuous gradual
decline in the new supplies Of gold from any ef-
fects which have flowed or may flow from the
California and Australian discoveries.

and an lnstrumentslity of commerce,
about seVen-eights OF all existing lines

covery Of gold in California.

Mrs. Lease has snnihllsted the silly
lie that her claim that she was the dsugh-
ter OF a soldier, was a fiction told for
campaign effect. She claims that her
father was a private In a New York
regiment, was taken prisoner at the
battle of the Wilderness, and taken to
Andersonville, where he starved to death,
his body while yet breathing, having
been thrown on the dead cart and drawn
to burial. She had also q brother who
was shot to death at Fredericksburg as q
member Of the famous "Bucktsils" Of
Pennsylvania. She offers to pay all ex-
penses Of an investigation which shall
declare facts different from the above.
The policy Of making war upon woman
Is ever of questionable wisdom, but the
attempt to silence a woman by lies, 80
msrvelously endowed as is Mrs. Lease
with the ability TO defend herself, is not
more cowsrdly than idiotlc.-LGwreDes

1t Ia a striking feature of modern and
especially of recent times that the area Of
civilization, with all its attendant condi-
tions, has been immensely extended over
substantially unoccupled portions of the
earth. The foremost European races
have spread rapidly and resistlessly in
every direction. Wherever they have
planted their feet they have established
order, encouraged industry, built up
commerce, created wealth, and infused
with the commercial idea the sluggish
populations by which they were sur
rounded. It is thus that Europe grows
quite as much abroad as at home, and 1t
will be Its glory In coming times to be
overshadoWed by Its colonies, which are
diffuslng it's blood, genius, arts and Ian
guages over every continent and over the
isles of all the seas. While the former
seats of civilization expand in popula-
tion and power, new and great civilized
nations appear upon the scene. The
figures which mark the extent Of these
new creations enlarge so rapidly and so
soon become obsolete and useless that It
seems waste Of time to charge the
memory with them. The annual imports
of Australia are now stated at $3.50, ,0O0,-
600, implying an aggregate foreign COM
merce of twice that amount, which sur
passes that of Great Britain forty years
ago, that Of France twenty-five years o,
and that of the United States twenty
years ago. Canada, the Cape of Good
Hope, and other British dependencies
attest also the cOlonizing energy Of Great
Britain, and, If less strikingly, it is only
because Of the contrast with the pro-
digious advancement of Australia. In
South America the colonization of other
European races, not accompanied as In
the British case by extensions Of Euro
pesn civilization, is proceeding upon a
great scale. During the year 1875 the
European emigration to BuenoS Ayers
exceeded that to New York.

through the new supplies of gold affected
only the latter part Of that period, the In
crease was more than so per cent
A comparison of the ten years ending
with 1874 with the ten years ending with
1854 shows that commerce nearly trebled
in those twenty years.
These comparisons show how new
uses absorbed the new supplies of gold,
80 as to prevent an increase Of prices.
Another mode of stating 1t may be that
the new supplies of gold rendered possl-
BILE the enlarged operations Of commerce.
And, doubtless, both modes Of statement
are necessary to cover all the aspects Of
the fact.
