Everything points. to such a revival of the tale of Phe Country as has never been sm bofor, and that can lat be the precursory movement in that direction, equivalent to the calm fore the stern." Never before has the Country been so ready and willing to take gols, and demand must triumph in đổie long run, especiady if supply is not ex- vssive.
