Skating on Water.

According to Prof. J. Joly oi Trinity College, Dublin, a skater really glides about on narrow film of water, con- tinually forming under the skate, and resuming the solid form when relieved of pressure. He shows that the pres- sure under the sharp edge of the skate. along the short portion of the. steel curve which is at any moment in con- tact, is great enough to liquefy thin line of ice, and this gives the skate It's "bite." When the ice is very cold. the pressure is sometimes inadequate to reduce the melting point sufficient ly, and then, as all skaters know, 1t is difficult to make the skate bite. For very cold ice Prof. Joly recommends hollow ground" skates, because the effective pressure increases with the tbinness of the edge.

Tmmerging from the effects of the late civil war. in 1870, just 30 years ago, ''tbe result is tae mightiest industrial expansion the world has ever seen. This is the miracle working age of steam and eIectrlci : ty. Under the potent application of these magic forces the whole civilized world has been bounding forward with astonishing strides. The great nations of the O,d World had a long start in the race. They possessed accumulated capital and established industries and fixed markets. And yet, notVithstand- Ing these advantages, they have been far outstripped by the puis- sant young republic of the New World.
 Among the industrial powers of the earth we now stand pre- eminent and unrivaled. We have gained a manufacturing supremacy which is altogether unapproaehed, We are not only able 10 supply all of the demands Of our home market, but are now the competitors of the O.d World powers in every part of the earth where a market exists.
 In 1870 the value Of our manus faetofes were =$3, TOO, ,000, 900; now it is in round numbers $12, 900, OOO,- 900, nearly doubling the product every decade for the last 30 years. Great Britain, for the century past, had been the workshop of the world ; yet, in 1870 this country had about equaled hers; now ours is about two and half times the total value of that of Great Britain, and equal to those of Great Britain, Germany and France put together. We should not forget that while we baye been outstripping these great powers, they have not been standing still, but making considerable pro- gress, yet we have so far outstrip. ped the whole of them.
 '.The figures of our national earn ings dazzle the imagination. Last year we earned about $l4, 5Oo, 900, : 900, of which more than one half was the wages of labor. The earn ings of labor in the United States today are greater than the com. bined earnings of capital and labor together in Great Britain. The average earnings of today are nearly 50 per cent greater than they were five years ago.

Haa an Unpleasant Experience.

Henry Fredenburgh, while fishing at Catskill recently, had rather unpieas- ant experience. A monster sturgeon caught it's head in the meshes of net handled by Fredenburgh, ana while he was striving to fasten rope about his gills, the boat lurehed and the fisherman tumbled into the net. After fioundering there some +ime with the sturgeon, Fredenburgh succeeded in grasping rowlock, but was unable 70 free himself from the net. The big fish, still entangled, made a dash for liberty and for ten minutes dragged net, boat and fisherman about the river. Then Jacomb Conine, partner of Fredenburgh, came in boat, cut the net, released the sturgeon and as- sisted Fredenburgh into the boat.

STOCK MARKET GOSSIP.
Talk OF the Probable Effect of the
Currency Law.

NEW YORK. March 1S.-Financial and
market people are peculiarly interested in
the probable effect of the new currency
law on the prices of securities. Many are
of the opinion that it Will be the lever that
will turn the market into an upward
course. And there are not a few that eX-
pect this improvement of the situation
to come Immediately.
As to the excellent prospect of better
money conditions without delay there can
be little doubt. a large part of the enor-
nous gains in bank loans during the past
few weeks have been due to operations
incident to preparation for the refunding
of the Government bonds and these loans
are now completed. Unless there is some
thlng unforeseen in the situation, there
VIII be steady contraction of loans low
for some time to come. On the other
hand. there is every expectation that the
drain on New York for money for he in
terror Will cease. The speculative holders
OF bonds in this city. and their holdings
are large, Will sell them TO interior banks,
and the cash in payment therefor viii
begin to come this way quickly. The
payments of the premiums on the refunded
bonds also will come to New York largely.
Technically. the market is ready lot an
advance. Holders of securities have re-
fused to sell them during the past month
OF poor bank statements although the
bears have exerted themselves abundantly.
II is not to be expected that they will do
SO now. when money prospects are so
good The bears have covered somewhat
during the past week, but their commit
ments on the short side are still heavy.
and buying for their account is TO be eN-
pected. The cliQues which have begun to
purchase stocks again in a small way,
may be expected to be active at this fav'
orable time, in anticipation of the good
effects of the new law. The public has
continued only a looker-on so far, but
experienced market people express the
opinion that despite their apparent un-
Willingness now they will be found bid
ding for stocks in the usual way when they
begin to advance well.
Henry Clews. in his weekly letter, says
OF the February returns of Americas for

The exports of merchandise during that
month amounted to sl19. 765 600: the largest
February in the last FIVE years. The i'm
ports of merchandise were quite large,
s6S,174.000, but the excess of exports
amounted TO $50 991 600; an increase of
nearly 80 per cent over the same month
last year. Such a large and sudden sddi-
tion TO our trade balance is worth investi-
eating. These are the principal articles of
export for February:
