Prof. Leone Levi, a statistician, has prb 'ished some figurs to show the distress pre vailing to Great Britain has been somewhat exaggerated. He puts the total working pop ulation of the United Kingdom at 24,000,000, out do a total of 31,000,000, and allowing for a shrinkage of £30,000,000 in the wages of the testile and iron industries during the last year, he reckons the earnings of the working olasses at an average of thirty-three shillings per family of five persons each week. Owing to the reduced price of the necessaries of life, he considered that the community as a whole is better nourished than at any time formerly. Out of the 24,000,000 dependent on industrial occupations 11,500,000 are actual earners. Out of a total of £503,00,000, it is worth noticing that 3,638,000 women earned £113,000,000, as against £890,000,000 earned by 7,621,000 men. The 1,849,000 women employed in domestic service earned £861,000,000, as against £48,000, 000 earned by 1,600,000 in industrial work. The male and female workers under twenty years of age earned £61,000,000 or nearly one seventh as much as the adults. In the in dustries which are suffering most from de pression, there are 4,239,000 laborers engaged. The imports of foreign dry goods at this port for the month of May show an increase of $1,1660,9 as compared with the corre sponding month of last year, and t65e,711 for the same mothin 1877; and for the past five months exhibit an increase of $8,662,583, com pared with the corresponding period in 1878, and an excess of $1,194,224 for the same time in 187/1. Over last year the increase is a very liberal per centage and is more marked since one-third is the gain of the month ended, showing how sensitive that trade is to any Improvement in our general commercial affairs. The increase noted is one of the many signs that proclai he dawn of aperiod of prosperity in this oou y. -[New York Journal of Commerce. Among the many failures in England of late is that of, the banking-house of Swann, Olough.k Co., of York, after a highly success ful career of more than a century. The col lapse is in some degree attributed to the diminution of capital in consequence of the demise of partners, but is regarded as hav ing been in a great measure precipitated by the comments of the Judge of Assize, in a ref erence to Pa case in which the banking-house was concerned. "So clumsy and audacious a piece of swindling," said his Lordship, "I can hardly conceive. It is only equaled by the extraordinary credulity and want of caution on the, part of the parners, so far as I can see:' The late Mr. Bagehot, of the Econo .lat, writing some years ago was of the opinion that private banks would gradually disappear in England, but there have not since been indication of this, and the disas trous failures of some joint stock banks to gether with reports injurious to the.eredlt of others, during the past three or four years, is likely to prolong the life of the private banking-house whose partners have in many eases, through social and political connec tions, wide ramifications of interest. There has, however been a marked tendency on the part of private banks of late years to gain strength by amalgamation. London private bankers are an eminently conservative class, and .a partner who exhibits speculativa ten dencies is invariably ejected, in the case of leading firms. The late Mr. Edward Majorl banks had on this account to leave Coutt's two years ago, and a baronet of very large property was similarly ousted from another greatjfirm. FINANCIAL AND C01_IERCIAL.
