Trade istween the United State. and
Canada.
The W1orld of New York publishes the eta
tistics in detail of the trade between the
United Mtates and Canada for the past twenty
five years. In the year ending June 30, 1800,
in which the rociprocity treaty terminated,
the imports into this country from Canada
amounted to $514 704159. Minc thattimne the
annual average imports have been but about
3a.000,000. The total American exports to
Canada between 1852, when they amounted to
$10,509,015, and 1378, when they were $47,
5s0,51t were $7306.6o., 07. The Imports for
1852 were $;,10,290, for 1870 $30,930,607, and
for the twenty-live years $609,058,961. The
average annual exports for the whole period
were $29.402,035; for the last live years the
annual average was $40,202,585. The average
annuam iloports for the past twenty-five years
were $27,902,35, and for the last live years
$37,324,590. liefore the panic our average
annual exports to Canada were 35,090,000; for
the following three years they were $53,045 -
000. If the Canadian statistics are accepted,
the annual average exports to Canada, for
1874, 1875, and 1570 was $00,0(N1,100.
A queer Cane.
A singular agreement, given by a man to
his wife, to induce her to abandon a suit for
divorce which she had begun against him, is
published in the Aeo'riwea Law Ren'i, as
follows:
For value received, one day after I at any
time becomneintoxicated or drunk or mistreat
or abuse Minnie Myers, I Orotifse to pay to
L. M. Phillips. the sum of $6o0, for the use of
Minnie Myers, with 10 per cent interest front
maturity until paid.
In consideration of the execution of this in
strument, Mrs. Myers withdrew the divorce
proce4dings and went to live with her hus
band again. He soon broke his promise to
keep sober and kind, however, and Phillips, to
whom the money was to be paid, brought
silt upon the agreement. The defense was
want of suflicient consideration. This de
fense was sustained in the court of first in
stance. but was overruled by the Supreme
Court of Illinois which has held the instru
mont to be a valid contract.

France reckons two braves more. A fire
man at Tarbes rushed among the blazing
ruins of a house to save his captain and a
clergyman, who were buried beneath the floor
in endeavoring to rescue the inmates. The
fireman remained, trying to extricate the
captain, but without avail, till the flesh peeled
oil his hands and face. He has died
from his wounds, has been buried at the na
tion's expense, and for a month his name will
be read out first on the roll call of every regi
ment in the army.
Jean I'lantier is a pointsman. and a few
months ago, In endeavoring to close the gates
of a crossing, he was struck clown by a goods
Irain and his arm amnputated. Not a soul was
within reach and aware that anexpress train
was due, he tied up the bleeding stump, and
remained at his post. until the station master,
informed by the engine driver that some aei
dent had occurred. picked up the arm from
the rail, and succored the hero.
M. (Gartiaux has published seone curious
statistics on the dangers of traveling by land
in France. He says that in the diligence' days
anman had one chaan oof being killed in 300,(ee
trips, and one chance of leying injured in 00,000.
On the railway between 1535 and 1555 there
was one chance of being killed in 2,000,0150
journeys and one chance of being Injured in
500,000. fromn 1855 to 1875 one chance of
being killed In making 0,000,000 journeys, and
one chance of being injured in 00,0100. Now
the chances of being killed are as one to 45.
000,000, and of being injured one to 1 000,000.
Consequently a person traveling ten hours a
day at the rate -of forty miles an hour
would, in the first period, have had a chance
of escaping destruction during 021 years;
during the second pet lod during 1014 years,
and between 1872 and 1875 during 74.' years.

The amount of sugar annually consumed in
Great Britain is 1110,000 toms, beilg about
sixty pounds for every one of the population.
Raw sugar, when Imported, contains from 2
to 3 per cent of impurities. As much as three
tons of stones have been found in a single
cargo. According to experiments made by
Dr. Cameron, of Dublin, and 1)r. Hassel, of
London, as many as 100,000 mites are some
times found in a pound of raw sugar. A case
was lately before the circuit court, Glasgow,
which showed that arsenic was mixed with
sugar. A captain was charged with causing
the death of several seamen by serving out
putrid pork to them, but, on the sugar being
analyzed by Dr. Maclagan of Edinburgh, it
was found to contain sullicient arsonfe to
cause death. This sugar was sulpplied to the
ship at Callao.

State vs. Roman Marmoget for murder.
Marmoget was indicted before the Grand Jury
of this psrish on the 22d of October, 1876, he
having, It was alleged, killed one Jean Laziere in
the rest of the Second District, on St. Philip

Braugho, then presiding over the Snperior Crim
inal Court, lie was convicted of manslaughter,
and was sentenced to three years in the State
Penitentiary. An appeal, however, was taken to
the Supreme Court, when it was ruled that
Branghn's title to the offioe was not good, and
the ease was remanded for a new trial.
Yesterday the evidence showed that at the
dairy of one Pierre there was a wedding on the
night of the kill ng, and a larg- supper with any
quantity of wine laid out for the tuests. Mar
moget, who was not a drinking man, got
thoroughly under the influence of liquor, and,
