This coast is rich in memories Of the
destruction of the great Spanish Ar
mazda. A famous painting in London
represents the Infanta Isabella, the flag
galleon of the Armada. going to pieces
on the rocks at the foot Of the Cause
way. With a heavy wind and sea, a
vessel could easily be driven against
the cliffs without touching the sunken
rocks outside the narrow beach. Dur
ing a frightful storm on the 21st of De-
cember last, which caused the destruc-
ton of many a vessel on this coast, the
water rose to height of twenty feet,
came several feet up the side of the
cliffs, helpless vessels being driven
right against them in the gloom.
Since the issuance Of a circular by the
Department of Agriculture on the con-
dition of the worlds markets more or
less interest has been manifested in the
increase of expectations of the United
States into Great Britain and Ireland.
The United States are almost wholly
able to supply the wants of foreign
markets, but while they are not by any
means doing it now, the export trade Is
steadily increasing, so that in a few
years the United States will be the main
supply house Of the world. At the end
OF the fiscal year in 1893 the United
States exported products valued at
SS47 $685. 1874, and Notwithstanding the
stagnation of trade in '94, she showed
an increase of S44,475,378 over the pre-
vious year. OF this amount the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland
took nearly 60 per cent OF the exports
to the United States Great Britain sup
piled only 16 per cent. of the whole
amount. The rush of trade between
these two great countries may be more
readily seen by the following clipping
in regard to a recent record cargo, car
ried by the big White Star freighter
Georgia, which has a capacity of 10000
tons:

Aprop0s of the yacht race, the down
cast crowd CT to-day is quite a contrast
TO the crowd that gave three hearty
cheers late Tuesday night when the
Vaikyries victory over the crippled De-
fender was bulletined on the newspaper
Office boards. But afterward, when the
Defenders protest was sustained and
