The recent favourable condition of foreign trade, and the great increase of specie reserves which has caused an increase of currency are the immediate 're gons of the advance. In July, the American Gvernment promulgated isquiation prohibiting the export of some important commodities. and in Japan, prices of rice, cotton. yarn and come other articles advanced amazingly. This doubtless h a contributed to the vastly higher ratio.
