J v The total quantity of wool sent to Londoo from the Australian Colonies and tLVaazi i d li i the y^r 1874 was 851.885 bales, and from tbe Cape 163,860 bates; in the year 1875 the exports from Australia and New Zealand was 700-557 bales, and from the Cape 174,567 bales ; and for three quarters of the year 1876. from the Ist January to the 30th September, tbe export from Australia and ? 6W ? ei J, Bnd wa9 763,864 baUs ; and from the in ihe same period, 136.632 bales. la the year 1874, the export from New Zealand alone was 140.952 bales : jo the year 1878 it wa* 148,034 bales, and for three quarters of the year 1876 it was 167,877 bale*. It will probably surprise many people when they notice that the iota} export o! wool from the united colonies of New South Wales and Queensland, two very important dependenciesdoe New South Wales, the oldest of Her Majesty's possessions in the Australian gfrttip— wag, ,/Ia the year 1874 o»ly 134,555 baler* in the year 1875 it was 147,127 bale"? ;' and for the nine months of the year 1876, 164,078 bales, being less than from New Zealand in the years 1874 and 1875, and only 6201 bales more in the nine months of the year 1876. There can belittle doubt, however, from the quantity of New Zealand wool offered for sale at the October and November sales, that afc the end of the year 1876 New Zealand will stand ««eond on the list of wool producing colonies, Victoria, of course, taking jtbe lead. Speaking of the Cardinal's will, the London Times sayis^" We turn to his will— tbe eimplioity and directness of which might be a lesson to our own lawyers— and we behold a areiy different pietui c. Tr is typical cardinal supposed tobe amassing great wealth and full of mysterious schemes, appears before us in the ordinary drgas of human nature, pssessing the fortune begusathed him by bis parents, and simply anxious to do justice to the brothers, tbe sisters, ond the secondary relations whom Jie leaves behind. As wo read this will, we feel ourselves in the coufidenee of a kindly. Matured man, simply anxious, like any other, to do justffie to his friends and to those who have served, him, and leading a life quite apart frottf the political and ecclesiastical turmoil in wbich he had been engaged. Remembering tbe many years he had served the Papal, See, there is something touching in the humble petition of tbe Holy Father to accept the respectful offering of the crucifix standing on the Cardinal's writing table as a homage 'from the most deroted and faithful x>i his subjects, who dies tranquil iv the conscience of never having failed in duty towards his sacred persocyjind the conviction jof having always, jn^hjpnl earnestness ana honesty, served hiittfij^fte' true interests of the £hun'h and of the StatV' This is all Antonelli has jts anxious ua& troubled episodes are summed up, as thw jnight he by the minister pi any other pmv^Linto a simple devotion to the cau*e of his sovereign j and the personal jUttuchrrteut which this illustrates is no slight clement in the strength of the Romas (Catholic Church."

.A. nut to erai-Obr linguists is going the round of the dubs, which, nayoij doubtless Jfnow, contain a- good number of professing French scholars. There is always sonrebody Hiring his French in the smoking-room, or ostentatiously studying the Debuts in the reading-room instead of The Times. Ihe following epitaph, culled it is said, from a Normandy churchyard this vacation, has greatly exercised their wits t— • '■ Pas de lien Ehone que equs." Most «f them bare giren it up on the ground that though they have Parisian French at itheir fingers' ends, they have not studied Norman French. Ifyou read the lines aloud £nd quickly, h,o*ever, you will find they are not French at all, but a well-known exhortajtion to independence in the English tongue, " Paddle your own canoe."

A Genuine Source of Health. Thousands fii invalids seek in vain year, after year, for lOme resjt tource pi health. They try one remedy after another until they begin to .despair of finding the mach wished for object.
