The Textil Zeitung of Berlin says, in an article ouRecent Events in England, and their Hearing on the Textile Industries of Germany" that for the moment at any rato a preferential tariff favouring the Colonies need not be taken into consideration, Mr Balfour having declared that the nation is not get ripo. for it. He is probably right, for a perfectly natural egotism prompts the people to refuse acquisscoace to any measure calculated to raise tha prison of foodstuffs and raw materials, and to resist the proposal of making a present to the Colonies at a considerable eest to themselves. Does this in any way brighton the prospects of tortile exports from Germany? An advance in the prices of foodstuffs and raw materials world certainly not affect the German textile industries unfavourably, as it would increase the cost of production in England and ske ont the disadvantage German manufacturers are labouring under at present in consequence of the import duties on cereals in this country.

•Ch the other bund, should England refuse to grant preferential rates on imports from the Colonies the latter will become less disposed to reduce their tariffs in favour of the mother country, nud this of courss German trade would hail with delight; viewed thus, Mr. Chamberlain's resignation would appear to have improved the ontlook. Unfortunately the question of retaliatory duties romains; Mr. Balfour accentuates them in bis programme, believing that he will be able to convert a grut majority of the British people to his policy. Retaliatory measures would be adopted countries whose protectionist #gainst all tariffs rouder difficult and restrict imports from the United Kingdom, and would consist in the imposition of countervailing duties on man factured goods they are in the habit of spilling in England, which would include textile fabrics, These duties would probably only be enforced in cases where concessions such as England might demand in the interest of her industries are refueed, but is not likely that we should escape being mulcted, when wo consider the protectionist tendencies which unfortunately prevail in the German legis. lative body at pressat. Thore is little chance of England's wishes with regard to a reduction in the German tarif being conceded; countervailing duties will therefore be imposed, and the German textile trade suffer in consequence. The danger of this has not been removed by Mr. Chamberinio's resignation, and can only be removed by the British nation declaring ita hostility to a retaliatory policy. The chances are not unfavourable, for although those amongst British industries which through commercial or technical backwardness are steadily losing ground in the home markets MADAME ROUX AND would naturall welcome protection, counter. vailing duties are not intended for their benoit so much as for that of the export trade, and in ozport circles little faith is placed iu their officacy, it being feared that after all they may prove two-edged weapons and cause sn advance in foreign tariffs instead of the hoped. for reduction. Fuch fears are not groundless, And we may hope to see the whole scheme split on this rock and the British markets, as in the past, remain open to the German textile industries.
