Durham Salt Company, nhii lj
lop a new field. But nine years
gantry produced one thousand
V it
seven hundred bullion pounds of salt
yearly, and the imports last year were
nix hundred and sixty-three million
Munds, most of it ho coarse ind- crude
that the value was only fl.000,000,
whereas the value f domestic salt pro
duced in 1K0 was over $4,000,000. Since
1SK0 the production in this country has
greatly increased, so that it is safe to say
that we produce from three to four times
as much as we import. Nor can this
country be dependent upon Qreat Britain
even for the part imported, because less
than (0 per cent of the imports last year
came from Great Britain.
The British papers state that the Inter
national Steel Hail Makers' Association
has been revived, the foreign makers
having agreed to let Great Britain supply
India exclusively. The combination
expects to advance the price largely at
once; from January, J 884, to April, 1880
it was steadily maintained at about $23.
Now American makers are selling at $27,
or even less according to recent reports
and the imports last year were only 00,
000 tons. At ports on the Pacific coasts
or the Gulf, far from American mills, the
cost of inland transportation as against
transportation by ocean overbalances the
duty, but the price for most American
consumers is entirely governed by home
competition. Moreover, if the foreign
trust put up the prico abroad American
mills can undersell it at most of the
points where foreign rails have of late
been purchased. New York Tribune.

A Brave Little Sailor.
On a weatherworn bark that Is moored
to a dock in South Washington to-night
there is a little chap with a remarkable
history. lie is 7 years old, his name is
Garfield Slocum, and he is the Bon of
Capt. Slocum, who has just arrived here
in a small boat from a 7,000 mile sail
from South America. Garfield was born
in 1831 in Hong Kong, China, and was
named in honor of President Garfield by
Col. Mo6by, consul at that point. The
boy has traveled not less than 275,000
miles, including two voyages around the
world, and has touched his foot upon the
soil of the three Americas, Europe, Aisa,
Africa and any quantity of islands,
and been clear around Australia. His
last trip on the Ubertad, a boat thirty-
five feet long, carrying only four tons.
was 7,000 miles long, ft sea voyage un
paralleled for a vessel of the size. His
father, mother and elder brother were
his companions. At times tney were
2,000 miles from land, and tho frail little
craft met dangerous storms, but came
through safely. Garfield is a good sailor
anj. has never shown any fear of the sea.
