Last evenlng, I o conversation, Lieut, Do Loug related many facts of futerest concerning the conception of and preparations poing forward for the Jeaunette expedition. Ho hos served ecighteen years fa the navy, In 187 ho wse navigator of the Juniate that, with tho Tigress, went {n search of the Polarls. e felt certain that Mr. Bennett hud not deliberated on the subjeet of an Aretie expedition before hio unlted with his Enghsh colleagues to send Stanley to Afrfea. Arctic exploration hnd been a subject more in the lHne of Amerlean thought and ambi- tion, und in the misslon of the Jeannctte Mr. Bennett had been setuated by a public-spirited fecling to ald u the solution of the great prob- lem of the North, and would vaturaily feel con- sldernble pride in the patronsge if the under- taking resulted in anything useful. But with the management of the undertaking Mr, Bon- nett had nothing to do. Io hud stepped entire- 1y to one side, placed the responslbility of oxe- cation fn the hunds of the American Navy, nnd, to express it in American fashion, his ml‘y,ln- structions were: ** Go In, and do the best you can, 'l stand the expense.” In conversations had with Mr, Bennett in London, Licut.

The only difference between the cruise of the Jeannetto and that of an American man-of-war will be that money to meet the expenses witl-he drawn s needed Ly order on o private gentleman, The Jenunette, named after Mr, Bennett's slster, was originally H, M. 8.

Wiy Trado Is Reviving In tho Formor, and Declining In tho Lutter—A Good Puff for Minnesotn Fen. 14.—To the Editor of the London Times: Trade is reviving in the Unfled States, while it i1 declining In England. Why should that bet Au Englishman nsking that question in Amer- fea s generally snswored to this elfect: # e aro progpering because, uulike you, we are no longer manufacturing at u loss. Since 1874 we have closed o Jarger proportfon hoth of mills and foundrics, aud many of our mechun- 1es have beeomo farmers. Consequently less Is made, but what is made sells well. “\While Groat Britain persists in spinning more cotton and puddiing more Iron than her customers want, the price hoth of her cotton and ber fron will continuslly fall. If the pres- cnt stagnation of tradeis indeed caused by over- production, entalling large stocks of unealable froods heing loft on the manulacturers’ hunds, it would scem ns if the nresent palicy of adding to those stocks must result In perpetuating that atagnation. Better to make little sl sell at n vralit than make much aud sell ot a loss, % English manufacturers und English work- men will do woll td seck fresh employment for thelr capital, IC they hold on, hoping agatnst hope that, the era of bud trade oncu past, En- land will reemin the mononoly of manufactur- n for the world, they witl be acting ltke the foulish astrich wlho, burying her head in the sund, rofusca to sea what all around her ean see, “We have long since aatd that wo will not tako her manufactures, wnd wow Uermany, France, aud Russia seem to be saying the samo thing, It England chooses to lend out lier cap- fual to forelgn countries, ns she did prior to 187, the countrica so favored will no doubt be very elad to buy English fron with Enelish uoh". But, withaut the gold, the forefra countries Jack fmmr the moenns or the inclination to buy the rol Forelgu protection hns deprived Ureat Brit- al of some of the Continental warkets; Amer- fean competition is beatine her out of sume of the noutral inarkets.
