CONSULS AND BRITISH FOREIGN TRADE.

At a coosnt meeting of the Kidderminster Chamber of Commerce Mr. John Brinton called attention to the great loss to, British trade which resulted from the trading interests of this country not being suflolently looked after by our Cossus in foreign countries, and said it was high time the Chambers of Commerce.and trailers generally raised such a vigorous move- mat on the question that something would be dins by the Gorcament to remade a-state of things which was most prejudicial to British trade. Ho bad boy looking into the matter, particularly with regard to Turkey, and found that inefficient representation of British inter- eats there was resulting in a diminishing trade, and the anal report of the Kidderminster Chamber of Commerco which had just been issu at ucidentaly referred to the game sort of thing- taking plain other countries. Itwasof supreme importanca that Great Britain should be well represented commercially, and her interests Kapet zealously looked-Altar in all countries, especially as she had under the present fsoal ratom, to make a present of a great deal of her tradle to foreigners, who insisted on every barrier being raised against the admission of British goods into their countries. He was an old disciple of Coblon, but they had found out what a most unfortunate mis ake Coblen made. and how the policy be advocated had been eadly. used against them. He suggested that they should get other Chambers to join with them in arging the Government to appoint Minister of Commerce, who would take charge of the Coneuls and foreign trade reprezentatives, and e that they did their daty to British trade. It was more than strange that a manufacturing country should have been so long without a Minister of Commerce, and if therb was money nough for millions to be thrown away or old- are pensions, surely the amount necessary for payment of a competent Minister of Com- mercadould be found.
