ENGLAND'S WALL OF WOE,
Her Commercial Supremacy at an
End.-She Has Poor Prospects
for 1895.

Industries and Iron says: On a re-
view OF 1894, we are much afraid that
a survey Of industrial features will
but increase an apprehension, which
of late years has been growing in in
tcnsity. that the period of our COM
mercial supremacy has at last attain
ed its zenith, and is now on the de-
cline. 1t is not that the volume of
our exports exhibits a gradual but
persistent retrogression; it is not that
the beating of our manufacturers on
their own ground by foreign rivals is
being conducted on a larger and
larger scale; that our agriculture has
gone to the dogs, and that our iron in
dustry seems in a fair way of following
it's example. These facts are bad
enough, it is true, but they are only
symptoms after all, and symptoms of
something worse than the facts are
themselves. The fact to be regretful-
ly acknowledged is that where we were
once first we are now not second or
even third in the broad path which
electrical science has laid open to our
progress.
Take a broad view of our main in
dustrleS, is there any one of them
which can fairly be stated to bear a
promising future? Is there one of
them which does not present signs
which, whether realized or not, point
eloquently to the principle of decay:
1t is a Supplying fact, Or would have
been so regarded a few years ago, that
Belgian ironwork is actual imported
for use in the country Of iron. Oar
textile industry is gradually being IN
dermined by the diligence of its ma
chiniStS. who are ScdulouSly inducing
our export customers to manufacture
their own fabrics, and set our looms
standing idle at home. In shipbuild-
ing, the American ship-yards are as
suming the aspect of rivals Of more
than formidable proportions. Our
locomotive export trade is relatively
paralyzed because foreigners now
make their w engines. Our chemi-
cal trade is departing to Germany. In
the paper trade our own markets are
deiuged with foreign productions,
both cheaper and better than we can
make ourselves. In agricultural ma
chinery our manufacturers toll for a
great part unSuccessfully against the
products of Germany and the United
States. All these are facts which can
not be disputed, though they may be
minimized. At all points apparently
we are tagging behind. A nation
without a specially does not count.
Our speciality vas surely that of being
in the van of progress in industrial
art. The most ardent advocate would
hardly venture to assert that this is
England's position now. Then, how
is it possible to take a cheerful view
of the prospects opened up by 1895:

Briggs Out Of Date.

Brig rugged vessels are now so scarce
that when the italian brig VincenZo Ma
celia dropped anchor in port the other
day, shipping men looked upon her as a
genuine object of curiosity. There are now
very few vessels of this style afloat, and
r., new ones are being built. The reason
for their passing away seems to be that
tbev require too many men to man them,

"The solution Of the phenomenon,
