The Statement (V.) is the Report of the French Customhouse
of the Importations from Great-Britain, both in value and quantity.
from 1825 to 1830; - we have rendered this account into English
weights and monies for the easier comparison with our own official Returns.
A corresponding account of Exportations follows (Appendix, D.J.)
reduced into Pounds Sterling, and English weights and measures.
These Returns, comprehending, as they do, almost every article
of importance, would naturally lead us to some observations on the
fluctuations of our commercial intercourse;— but, it will be more
satisfactory, probably, to pursue the investigations, as the different
articles come under investigation
examination.
We have been furnished by the English Customhouse with a Return
(D.J.J.) of the Trade between Great-Britain and France, from the year
1825 to 1830. Of the imports from France, it would appear the amount
is nearly trebled in the course of the last ten years. The whole amount
from 1821 to 1825 is £6.25.409 —yearly average £1.250.482-—
" 1826 to 1830 "" 11.456.678- """"""2.291.336"-
yearly increase £1.040.854.—
of Exports of British produce and Manufactures, the results are
from 1821 to 1825 . . £1.510.762— yearly average £302.152.#x2014;
" 1826 to 1830 . . " 2.280.432- ". . " . . " 456.086.—
yearly increase £1.153.934.—
It will be observed that, with the admission of French manufactures in 1826.
a contemporaneous increase of Exports of British Goods took place - though,
from 1821 to 1825 the Export had diminished, to the extent of £100.000.
pr. annum; - while, in 1830, it exceeded, by about the same amount the Exports
