A writer who depicts English life iu Shakespeare's time, pays considerable ittention to the state of trade, com- aerce and industry in various depart- aents, as well aS the sociul customs of I time. The condition dt the wooUt- ii trade in 1558 appears td have been u lluctuating and uhcertain one. Severa kiionarchs had lri6d to manufacture kiit^lish wool at home by employing J-leujish artists. The cambric of Caui- hray, the calico of Calicut, the domoker of Damascus, the dimity of Daraietty, l!ic drape of Ypres, the millen of Milan. lire still reco,mi/-ed by the names they liore, Flemings introimced the cloth trade in Yorkshire, and the east and tvf-st of England. The vvoal-plKUt was hiil cultivated in cloth re^iionti for irs â- ve. Lincoln j^rcen was famous, and so ^cre t!ie cloths of Kencial, Norwich, fVnistoii, and Halifax, as well as tho ^xerleis of the city of York. Foreign •iceitainties had caused the decay of ^hpse industries, and ])Ossibly the goods i?niseives were not as tine or as well ale as those imported. Im])erfect .! 1 iind bnd materials would RCCfunt for II' lonj^hnoss of tlie mn.U'ifiictured I 1 s.

Ul couiitries he tryinj^ to make their wi riotlis inconsequence." Asa luatter i fact, this is what thuy Jiad been â-  I'j; fi r hundreds of years. The En«- ii cloth trade was new, and ditlicalt to ;.tlil]ihll. ..u elTort to introduce kersey-makmg â-  Vj Leicester had failed. Hose are alo there. In 1594 Alderman Robert lowlch wrote to the Earl of Hunticg- ou iu London "I have sent up by Henry White forty pairs of good worsted uosc, tied togetlier in four bunches, :hich I pray you will sell for me for VMi, else lay them up in your press. I ramiot atiord them for less." In 1589 tilliam Lee had invented the stocking 3ach ne, but he had carried it with him |o France, and hand-made stockings l^vore the rule until some time after his vorkmen returned with the secret. In early part of the century Coventry laa been famous for its woollens and its lyed thread. "As true as Coventry blue," vas a proverb. But the business liad declined, though it was revived in \hf. later 3 ears of the century, when the 'tammies," "comlets" and "shalloons" the city were staple articles of trade. Hiere was a good market for Irish linen h sotne of the Cheshire and Lancashire pwrs. Ciiester, then known as West -iiester, petitioned in 155G for a cotton ' taple in the city. Coatings, or imita- f ious in cotton of the worsted stuffs of i:e Coutinent, were made by the sher- ^•i^n, 01 drapers, cottoners, and presaers t Shrewsbury, ani\ also at Bolton ami at Manchester. The ilanchester trade ^as yet in its infancy, its fusions, ver- "dions and dimities did not become Famous nntil the time of Charles J. The Taiiiua of cloths was etiected by walking tpou tlicm, as may btili be seen in the t^el.rides. and the name of the Inllii-g poimd was the "waiken miino." In 'â- ^â- K recor.led Cecil, fioin his own o; ^f^rvatuiu, the statement that "those who "P» Qd on the making of cloths ar of ' rse condition to be quietlv ^overn^d Mia-i husbandmen," showing il.u v.r '.di- ctate of manufacturius; icdustrv- .1 â€"At tiio kimo -whME tiwflyesfcbecly of citizens, nwnt to the scrar^ ^bzcIms in Paris to return thanks to Heax-mi' for ttie recovery of Louui XIY.,; Banerade^ in MU enio^iom which he ^dd^Toed at the French academy on tiiat Prince,- said, "To tliauk God for oar monsxcfa's ret over}' the merchant leaTos iaa ouutry ho^iâ- '(^ tlie artisan his wcwkgfaop, iui the doctor levpK his patient and," he a.t'Cd, "tiiti ^tawtsnt fe;l8 ail the bcLler lor it.'"' Baraed to. Death. Haysville, Out., March ll.râ€" About two o'clock this morning the taoase owned and occupied by Wm. Ellen baum was totally destroyed by fire.' Tb9 charred remains of EUenbauni and his wife waS found in the rains tbidmoruinq. Ellen baum has liyed lb th. viLngo for about forty years, and married his third wife about six weeks ago. The oiigiu of the fire is unknown, but is supposed to have caught by a pipe running; through the roof. A.t the inquest this afternoon the jury returned a verdict of acciden- tal death, caused by carelessness on the part of the disceased in allowing a stove pipe to project through the roof, which caught fire twice before, and is generally believed to be the direct cause of the sad afiair. Canffbt iu a Storm. Thessalon, Ont., March 16. â€" A furious storm from the east sat in on Saturday, 14th, and continued all the next day. Seven men on their way from Cockburn's Lnnding to Bruce Mines were caught iu it, but mauaged to reach a fishetman's hut four miles from the latter vlace on the morning of the 15th. Three oi them were so exhausted they had to remain there while the rest proceeded to Bruce Mines, for assistance. The relief party on their return found two of them, Bobert and Simon YanNorman, badly Irozen, but they will recover. The other man, named Geo. Forougo, of Mt. Forest, was so hsidlj frozen that he died a few minutes after their arriyal. It is still drifting and blow- ing furiously from the west.

Abbott the legal adviser of the Canadian Pacific, said to-day that the directors of the road were about to make a proposition to tiie government to the following effect (1) That the lien of tbe government upon the line and all its belongings for the $30,- 000,000 loan, be changed into first mortgage bonds for $80,000,000. (2) This done, that th 9 government accept lands in leau of $15,000,000 of these bonds, the remaining $15,000,000 of bonds to be disposed of by the com- pany, the proceeds applied â-  to the completion and equipment of the line. "By complying with this offer," said Mr. Abbott, "the governinent will not have to contribute any more money. Every dollar realized by the sale of the bonds will be applied to tbe com pletion of the road and its equipment, thereby enhancing the seeahty. This will also advance the price of the stock, as the goy eminent will have no preference.
