I brief, reciting event* of importance that have occurred in the ciril.xed world since the last turesage to < '< ’agree* wa* written 1 and »uch facta relating thereto a» may intereat the President. It U understood 1 that the message will be particularly atre-ng ou the Mobtue doctrine and conservative on Cuba, notwithstanding tbe opini<>n* and prediction* of tbe Hon. I*-n M. Ihckmeu. 1 have it straight that the I‘rv»ident doesn't expect tbe Cuban revolution to survive the winter. He thinks it will' be crushed out as aoou as tbe weather will permit an active camj-aign by the Spanish army. Secretary Carlisle's report, at the time this is written, has not been begun, although severe! bureau officers of the treasury are preparing materia! for it. The first copy of Secretary Morton's report is finished and is being revised. It will be longer than usnaL and packed with information of interest and value to farmers, live-stock grower*, packer*, fruit mem and particularly to those who are seeking foreign market* for agricultural product* The report of the Comui!*«ioner of Internal Revenue will show that the total consumption of teer in the l uited States fur the last fiwal year. mJed June 30, was 33,PTM>'>1 barrel-, which wa* an increase cd barrel* over the consumption of l-iH. but a decrease of 353.211 barrels fr><n the eoasamptfon ad * I*o3. Therefore, it w.-uld appear that hard time* have *> tacthing to do with teer Iriakmg. A barrel of beer in beeroers' measure contain* 31’, galfeam. The people of the I'nited States, therefore, drank L<Hs.lrJtMMas gab- ns -f beer last year. Tbe largest consumptiin >t beer in the Tn.-ed Statea was in New TorX Pennsylvania. Hhu * an*! '< > - nn The total sales in the city of Milraukee alone were XtkKkOUO barrel*, or tteut one-sixteenth of the whole. Kansas i» credited with only ••.<*.*.» barrel* of beer The report of the Secretary of the nary , will be of ■unusual interest this year fur die rea»;n that it will contain a sort of review of the w.,rk ox' rebuilding tbe American marine, which baa now teen practically completed upon the plan* that were adopted at the end of the Anhar acmimatratKin and the beginning of the Cleveland administration tea year* ago. England Must Right. It is the uaaniißoas opinioa among dipl-xuata here that England must fight or tone her foothold in the Ea*f. and that ever since the close of the Japanese war ' she Las been seeking a pretext for descecdmg up?n China to counteract the ' succesa of Russia ami restore her own . prestige. It is believed to be the intention of Great Br.taun. sooner >r later, to occupy Nanking, just as she srixed and held H >ng Kong forty year* ai u Nanking is the greatest city in the inter, r of I China and commands the commerce of the Yang 'txe, which is tbe greatest river and furnishes transportation for the nw-st productive and prosperous portion of tte esnyi-e. And a* soon as Russia takes posseasiou of Manchuria, tbe northern province, and starts her railroad down the Liao-Tung Penin»uia. John BuU will fin! an excuse to occupy Nanking and orgxnixe a provisional government of his ; own there, supported by a British fleet. ' It carters not what tbe pretext may te. England will demand exactions which tbe Chinswe Government cannot comply with. xnd nothing but the combined power* of 1 Eu.“ ;e eon rovaipel bee to k-weu her foot- ’ bold when it is once obtained. I C mxmerrial <L*a*ter threaten* England teth in Japan and China. Those evus- < me* have been the largest and moot pref- 1 itab > market* for British manufacturer*. 1 but her trade ia decreasing rapidly and ! I bes -re maag year* Japan will supply the 1 Asiatic xarket with aimxt everything it nerol*. The enormous increase of cotton ] factorfe* in Japan and their rapid introduetfon into China will soon be felt by the i manufacturer* of Manchester. &nce the , 1 treaty of peace between Ck.na and Japan < »u eirnei four ro-mpaaie*. with capital of not less than ll.'SjujX*) each, bare troee organ.xed in trUanghai to construct " cotton m...* tw... in Nanking, one in Hankow and two mire at Hoag Kong, which ' wfll get tbeir raw material from Araer.-a ’ and eat a great bole into the Englxh trade. It is tree that three-fourth* of tbe capital to be invested in these mill* comes 1 from England and is largely furnished 1 by tbe cut: n manufacturers of that coun- ' try. who realise the evolution in trade and < wih move their mill* from England to < ** rapidly as they can. India ha* preeties.:y -ease,! to consume British cot- 1 tons and .< abfe to furnish almoat her i entire *np?>'y Japan will be in the same situation within the next two or three < years aod China will follow rapidly after. 1 THANKSGIVING APPOINTED.
