WHEAT AND SUGAR SUPPLIED BY RUSSIA.
A SPLENDID JOKE.
PARIS, Wednesday. Russia has contracted to deliver to France 400,000 tons of wheat and 100,----900 tons of sugar.
LONDON, Wednesday. The Daily Mail gives prominence to Mt article from the German-American weekly paper, "Tho Fatherland," headed- "For English Colonies—Peaco with Freedom. " Tho article appeals to Australia and New Zealand to yield to tho inevitable, and declaro for separation from Britain in order to avoid an unhappy future when the late mistress of the seas has surrendered her trident. The paper adds: "Tho honours of the naval war are yours. Tho capture of the Emden, which looms large and bright in a long series of Allied disasters, will not be held against you in tho final reckoning with a generous adversary." The journal appeals to Ireland and Canada to throw off the yoke. The article admits that its advice and counsel of perfection may be regarded as premature, and even impudent; but the truth of the counsel, it says, is uncontrarortible.
