SAILERS; AND , THE OEAIK TRADE. 'Many Bailing vessels usually employed in the Australian trade-have been laid up recently in •English ports, but advices received from London state that charterers of sail tonnage outwards are experiencing; less diffloulty in filling : their requirements /.than for a long time past, and a considerable'drop in prlceß has resulted from the determination: of 1 owners to place their ships in position for ,the carrying of crops Homewards. A large 'number of - vessels - are - now about to proceed east, and :the Australian ,harvent is expeoted to provide plentiful employment tor ft good of, them, f. Thoro are some 60 sillers now in. the neighbourhood 'of the United Kingdom, either.soekwtr.outward employment or.going' out in>ballast.

"Just now we>are being supplied w.'.th.coleur do rose reports about the fine prospects for next harvest in Australia ; as a bait for shipowners to head their ships, in that direction, and <luO\ timo< we will do Advised of hot jfinds and drought whon tho time; for., fixing h&mewarda comes on with the-usual results for the unfop tunato shipowner,..who must then oither accept grain at rates which will laud him in ( a_loss on the voyage, or send his ship potter!tig aboul with coal from' Newcastle to the West Coast or clsowhore, prolonging, the wage by months, and very probably arriving home with a bigger debit balance than would havo i resulted from coming- direct back from a tho •colonics.. "An important factor in tho Australian prospective situation ,is tho part which, tho Olan Eine steamers are to play in the game next season, and if dcflniw information could bo given on this'point it would materially affect tho position aIIKO of Charterers and owners.'.'
