The Timber Trades Journal of a recent date Bays :—The arrivals of the past seven days are very small and insignificant; one cargo of pitch-pine, one cargo of Quebec goods, one of props, and the usual Christiania steamer are about all the arrivals to chronicle. A few ships are on the way yet from the Baltic ports, but the extremely stormy weather of the past week and strong westerly winds will have driven all such as were in the North Sea to the coasts of Norway and Denmark, while it is to be feared many of them will have been lost.

Business is still very flat, and in consequence of the closing of the ship- yards and engine works an immense number of men are unemployed. LIST OF PATENTS.
