After reviewing the circumstances bich compelled the English to occupy certala points and districts beyond the former roth-western figniter, he proceeds as follows :--

The principal factor is the differential sale of freights imposed by the British ship-is owners, who put an almost probibitive ́tariff on freights from British ports, even in vessels which load on both sides of the North Sea for each voyage. A report on the subject, furnished by Mr. Stuart, the Registrar of Imports and Expert at Slogspore, and forwarded to Mr. Chamberlain by Sir C. Mitchell, includes the following -
