GENERAL POST OFFICE, DEC. 20, 1839. I In consequence of the great increase of Letters containing Coup, it has become ne , !essary, in order to prevent the total interruption of the Service, to discontinue the system which has hitherto prevailed of entering the Addresses of such Let ters, and taking, receipts for them on delivery to the owners. The practice, therefore, of entering such Letters as Money Letters will cease on and after the Ist of January, 1840 ; after which time, parties having occasion to transmit small Sums in I Cash, are recommended" to make use of the MONEY O R DER / OFFICE, where they will incur no risk, while those who may desire to remit Rank Notes, or Drafts payable to Bearer, are requested to cut, them in half, sending each half, if possible. :' by two diff erent Posts. In the case of Bank Notes, or Bank - I Post Bills be'.ng sent, the Numbers, Dates, and Amounts, should be carefully taken. shoney Orders for Sums u n d e r 51. are granted by every Po Town upon every other Post Town in the United King dom, on application at the various Offices.

I a h- ' ll from the hi g h p r i ce o f bread ; that trade is rta E 1.41•u t , ; that our merchants and manufactures are in deei. barrassmcnt ; and that the working classes are endu the combined evils of want of employment and lour food, they are met, in many quarters—and t, pose respectable and influential quarters—by a do of their premises ; for there are gentlemen a ti contend that trade, so far from being crippled, is I' . ;- gorous and flourishi ng ; and they produce an °lnc a return, just published', of the exports of our print.'{ w 1 manufactures for the years 1838 and 1839, who seems to bear out their assertion. I perceive, S. r that this official return was quoted the other day in the Chamber of Commerce of Manchester, over ' which you so ably preside, by Mr. George Sanders, to show that the complaints made by yourself and others of the state of trade were not well founded ; and I have no doubt that it will be quoted in both H 'uses of Parliament for the same purpose. That official docu ment shows that a larger amount of British manufac tures was exporixd in the year ending January 5, 18-10, than in the year ending January 5, 1839 ; the increase, being nearly two millions on the declared value. Sir, I shall shortly prove, from the very document thus ad duced, a case, not of extending, but of declining trade 1 and manufacture. But before Ido this, I cannot he' ' , I expressing my surprise that any document or any figu could induce men who have the use of their eyes arid cars, to believe that trade was good, or that the present condition of the country was not one of severe and fear ful suffering. Nothing can be more notorious than the long-continued stagnation of trade, the p•ir tial suspension of manufactures, the frightful number of bankruptcies and insolvencies, encl. the thou sands and tens of thousands of workmen in tNe manu facturing, districts thrown out of employment, an.i either enduring the horrors of hunger, or subsisting on the r,recarious pittance of public charity. In Leeds, s'o merous arc the unemployed workmen, that it has beelt found necessary to raise a public subscription for their relief, the amount of which is about 5,0001. ; asui for some months past upwards of 4001. per week has been distributed in provisioss or money, in addition to the parochial charity, and to the efforts of private be nevolence. There have been public subscriptions of a similar nature for the relief of the unemployed poor in Bradford, in Huddersfield, in Halifax, in Barnsley, in Keighley, in Bingley, in Saddleworth, in Manchester, Bolton, Preston, Carlisle, Kendal, Nottingham, and in many other towns, from which deputies arc now present. My strong conviction, Sir, from the information I have received from many quarters, is, that there has rarely been a time of more general and more severe distress in the manufacturing and commer cial districts, and that much more money has IR en lost than gained in trade during the last three years. But in opposition to these facts of failing trade and tarving workmen, which, I may say, in Parliamentary phrase, . are as notorious as the son at noon-day, the return of exports ii quoted ; and it is said that figures cannot err, and that here is proof positive of augmenting end prosperous commerce. And certainly the return of the exports of our principal manufactures, if taken alone, and without an examination of the other evidence fur nished by the very same Parliamentary Return, appears quite inconsistent with the facts I have alleged. The exports of our principal manufactures, according to that document, were as follow : EXPORTS OF BRITISH MANUFACTURES IN 1839 AND 1839. 4 p'"l .4.1r4 the ,co re} uld No. 14.835.

CORN-LAW DELEGATES, ' wo aeu 'god !ole ter The second festival dinner of this Society took place on Wednesday at the London Tavern, the Right Hon. Sir Robert Peel, Bart., in the chair. There were about 350 gentlemen present, amongst whom were Lord In gestre, Sir David Milne, Sir C. Adam, M.P , Sir C. Ogle, the Hon. Admiral Mackey, Mr. Wolvericy Att wood, M.P.. Captain A'Court, M P., Mr. Crawford, M.P., Mr. Kemble, M.P., Sir Claudius S. Hunter, Captain Young, Alderman Lucas, Messrs. Golding, Hankey, Masterman, Bagshaw, Mackenzie, Robin son , Walkenshaw, &c. The Delegates assembled at two o'clock yesterday at their usual place of meetint , (Brown's Hotel, Palace yard.) After the minutes of the last meeting were read, the Chairman read a letter from Lord Melbourne, fixing hali-past three on Friday (this day) as the time at which be would receive a deputation of their body, and it was arranged that the deputation should as remble in the Committee-room to day, at two o'clock, and that an Executive Committee should be appointed to make the necessary arrangements. Mr. M. PHILLIPS, who had just then entered the room, said he had just had an interview with Mr. Lloyd, Lord Melbourne's Secretary, who stated that his Lord ship's letter was written on Wednedsay, and if it would he more convenient to the Delegates, he would receive them on Saturday, but after some discussion, it was t.rranged that his Lordship's first proposal should be aces ptcd, and Mr. M. Phillips was deputed to intimate this to his Lordship's Secretary. The CHAIRMAN then intimated that the agricultural labourer had arrived, and asked whether his examina tion should take place immediately or be deferred to some future occasion ? A DELEGATE said, as there were other labourers to be examined, he thought it would be better to have them all examined at the same time. Mr. GILSON said he believed Mr. Baines had an an important statement to make to the meeting, bat „at the same time it was important the examination of the agricultural labourer should- take: place as _early as possible as be was just arrived, and was in the next room, and it would avoid suspicion that the man was in their hands, and tempted to say what was not truth ( Hear, hear.) William Holman was then introduced, and upon examination by the Chairman, said he was a farm servant in the employment of Mr. Waterman, and had arrived from Taunton that morning. He had lived with that gentleman five years altogether. He hail part of the time been with Mr. Musgrave, but had again gone back to Mr. Waterman's service since last sum mer. His wages were now Bs. per week, that was since last Christmas, before which he had earned 7s. per week, with an allowance of three pints of cider per day. Upon the cider being disallowed, I s. a-week was added W. L. MABERLY, Secretary. G UARDIAN FIRE AND LIFE AS SURANCE COMPANY, No. 11, Lombard-street, at the Entrance of the Old Post Office, London.

After the dinner, and the usual toasts were dis posed or, The CHAIRMAN, in proposing " Prosperity to the "Shipwrecked Fishermen and Mariners' Benevolent Society," said the object of the Society was to provide consolation and relief for the widows and children of those fishermen and mariners who might lose their lives in the pursuit of thex necessary occupation. In such cases, the first object was to place the sons of deceased mariners, if of a proper age, in the same pursuit. The Society next directed its attention to the con dition of the widows, and by the payment of their rent, or other means, endeavoured to give them the most effectual relief. In cases of sudden calamity by storm and shipwreck, immediate assistance was provided for the sufferers. Such were the objects-of the Society, that he hoped that the great instrument, by which public opinion could be made to bear on the subject --the press —to whose volunteer exertions on behalf of the Society they were so much indebted—(Cheers)—would continue its im portant services, by bringing to the knowledge of the public of this country the objects at which this excellent institution aims. The Society had been in operation for little more than a year, but it had given relief in .no less than 239 cases of shipwrecked mariners.— (Cheers.) They had assisted 71 widows of fishermen and mariners who had lost their lives ; and 159 chil dren, who, but for the Society, would have been reduced to extreme destitution. In all, 512 persons had received consolation and relief from the Society. So much for the objects and exertions of the Society. For its means it relied solely on voluntary contribu tions. They should be most grateful for any dona tion which the opulent were able to give, aod, in proportion to the amount of the funds, they would be enabled to extend the usefulness of the Society; but they must mainly depend on the annual contributions of the great mass of the public.—( Hear, hear.) The appeal must be made by those who live in the interior of the country, and he (Sir it. Peel) could not help thinking that if that appeal were made successfully, an immense amount would be raised.--(Cheers.) How often did it happen amongst those p ersons , w h en t h e tempest was raging, that the first feeling it excited was one of con gratulation that they themselves were safe from its ravages, and then that the expression burst from every lip, " What vedful night this must be at sea, and how happy an,., tnankful we ought to be that we are protected from its dangers!" If mixed with that feel ing of congratulation, there could be the conviction of having done everything possible to mitigate suffer ing, he thought every one would feel that by a very cheap sacrifice they had bought a consolation of the most pre cious nature.

He had never had less than 7s. per week, with an allowance of cider, but he considered his wages as lower now than they were before Christmas, when the cider was disallowed, and Is. per week added to his wages.

TOYCE'S PATENT STOVES. tP These useful Portable Stoves, which may be removed from room to room, for all purposes of Airing, Drying, Warm ing, &c., for Hot and Green Houses, Conservatories, and all other purposes where heat it required, may be had at 58, KIN G- V4ILLIAIII- STREET, LONDON-BRIDGE, of any size, from 15s. upwards. Where also the PATENT TUBULAR STOVE, for Halls, Churches, &c., may be seen in action daily. London, March 27, 1840. The Gazette of this evening will quote the average price of British Plantation Muscovado Per Cwt. Sugar, exclusive of duty, at .. 40s. 81d. The actual quantity of Sugar sold on account of the importers, in the week ending the 24th instant, ac• cording to the returns made upon oath, by the West India Sugar Brokers, in conformity with the Act of Par liament, and on which quantity the above price is com puted, consisted of 520 hhds. 27 trs. and 10 barrels. Muscovado Sugar, raised by free labour on foreign planta tions, may be purchased in Mincing-lane, at quality for quality, about 18s. per cwt. less than the average price of West India Sugar ; in other words, the British nation pays to the West India planter as much money for one hundred weight of Sugar as would suffice to purchase two hundred weight of foreign growth. Refined Sugar, equal in quality to the double loaf-stand ard, is manufactured in London from foreign raw Sugar, and is sold for exportation at (deducting shipping charges) 325. 6d. per cwt., being Ba. per cwt. less than the home consumers have to pay for dirty West India raw Sugar. Under the plea of supplying the poor man with a cheap, sweet West India, treacle is admitted to home use free of duty; the value of the treacle, however, being regulated the monopoly price of West India Sugar, costs the poor man 12s. per cwt. more than the market price of good Foreign Sugar. If the Government were sincere, and really desired that the poor of this country should enjoy the use of a cheap sweet, why do they not allow treacle, the produce of refining from Foreign Sugar, to be admitted without payment of duty? The working classes could then supply themselves from the London refineries with treacle of the best quality at 13s. 6d. per cwt., instead of paying, as they now do, 335. 6d. per cwt for inferior kinds made from West India molasses.

Not they indeed 1 They will talk of Tory obstructive ness,' and dilate en the perilous condition of Ireland; but instead of throwing on their antagonists the responsihity of governing the country on Conservative principles. the present high-minded advisers of the Queen will cling to off cc with more desperate t enac i ty than before ."--The Morning Advertiser, in a l ea di ng article on the Corn laws, remarks as follows :—" The battle of the Corn-laws rapidly approaches. The question will be brought before Parliament on the 31st instant by Mr. Villiers. The Corn-laws have become the great popular question of the day, and Parliament can no longer evade its difficulties as formerly. They must be m e t an d grappled with, or agita tion will go on increasing to the great danger of the peace of the kingdom. The manufacturers, merchants, traders, and almost every class not directly engaged in agriculture, are clamorous for some alteration." —The Morning Post thus expresses itself on the subject of Lord Stanley's Irish Registration Bill :—" Tile object of Lord Stanley's Bill for the amendment of the system of registering the parlia mentary constituency of Ireland is simply to cause that to be done honestly which hitherto has been done dishonestly. Nothing can no more certain, and few things relating tsa Irish affairs are more notorious, than the monstrous frauds which now take place in respect of the registration of voters. All that is sought by Lord Stanley's Bill is to put an end to those frauds.—The Morning Chronicle thus al ludes to the result of the debate last night in the Com mons :—" We deeply regret this result, calculated as it is to generate the worst feelings in Ireland. The bill is known in that country to have been devised with no ocher view but to multiply and increase the already too numer ous embarrassments thrown in the claimant's way by the existing law. We protest, had we not seen the ominous name of Stanley on the back of the parliamentary paper, we should have felt the strongest assurance, from the nature of its provisions, that his hand, and his alone, had framed so malign a Bill."

ROBBERY ON THE BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY —lnformation having been given by the Right Hon. Robert Steuart, one of the Lords of the Treasury, of a mysterious robbery of bank-notes, which too k p lace on the Birmingham Railway, Serjeant Otway of the A div i s ion of police, was im mediately despatched to Birmingham to investigat e the mat ter. It appeared that last week the Right Hon. Gentleman, accompanied by his lady, left Preston by the train for London, having engaged a truck for the. conveyance of their carriage, in which was placed a quantity of valuable property and cash. On reaching the station at Birmingham the Hon. Gentleman inquired of the Railroad Police whether the property would be safe. Being assured it would, he, accompanied by his lady, re tired to the refreshment-room. After remaining there a short time L a d y St euart sen t t o their carriage to obtain a ret i c ul e, but found it h a d b een a b s tracted. The hag was known t o contain one t en an d f our five-pound notes, besides gold, s il ver , and other articles. On Sergeant Otway arriving at Birming ham, ho used his utmost vigilance, without obtaining the slight est clue to the robbery. The porters and other persons em ployed by the Company had undergone a strict search as soon as the loss was discovered. The numbers of the notes being known, they were stopped at all the local and London banks. The stock of Sugar belonging to importers remaining in the bonded warehouses of this port is inadequate to supply the average demand of the consumers for one month ; the people have, therefore, the choice either of going without Sugar, or of paying an exorbitant price for it.

Hi; Highness the Duke of Brunswick left Hanover o-day, to return to Brunswick. The opening of the Session of the Assembly of the Estates took place yesterday. Both Chambers were in sufficient number to deliberate. In the Second Chamber there was only one Member present beyond the number required by the law, though three newly elected Members attended. There was the Deputy for Gottingen there, chosen by the traders of Clausfeld and Zellerfeld, and the Deputy for Uelzen. In the Second Chamber, the draft of a new Constitution was presented, but nothing has transpired respecting its contents. THE HAGUE, MARCH 25.—The Sections of the Second Chamber of the States General begun to. day their examination of the Budget, and of the project of law for suppressing the Syndicate ; they will continue the examination to-morrow. The latest papers from Java say that the accounts received at Batavia, from the West Coast of Sumatra, were no later than the 15th of October. Nothing par ticular has passed there since the submission of Barns, which had taken place in March, in a very peaceable manner, and by no means as related in the journals of the British possessions. We beg to direct the attention of our readers to the following extract of a letter addressed to A. Rowland and Son, 20, Hatton-garden, London, from Hamburg, dated Feb. 15 :—" I have also the pleasure to inform you of another de cided proof of the efficacy of your celebrated Macassar Oil. Dr. Boding, of this place, had a patient who was bald for several years, and who had tried several articles for the recovery of his hair, but without effect, until he was advised by the doc tor to make use of your oil ; after using three bottles he entirely recovered it, and has now a much finer head of hair than for merly. Dr. R. felt so gratified at its Rut - Tess that he made a drawing of the recovered hairs (magnified) which he herewith sends." Rowland's Macassar Oil prevents hair from falling off or turning grey ; changes grey hair to its original colour, frees it from scurf and dandruff, and makes it beautifully colt and curly. In dressing hair it keeps it in curl, &c., unimpaired by damp weather, the dance , or in the exercise of riding. A s k f or " Rowland's Macassar Oil " _ - - iVIr. Meadows, of Covent Garden Theat re , on Wednesday called upon Mr. Butler; of the Olympic, and while playing with a large dog belonging to that gentleman, the animal sprang at him and bit him. surgical assistance was immedi ately obtained. After the loss of much blood Mr. Meadows was able to proceed, with a friend (Mr. Leman Reds), to Co vent Garden Theatre. cultivation. The potatoes consumed by the family cost him 4s. a bag of eight score, and they cost him from 15d. to 16d. per week. During the week he had some times from id. to I,id. worth of skim milk consumed. Frequently he also bought a dozen of salt fish—by salt fish he meant herrings. He used generally half a dozen in the week. Sometimes he had a pound of bacon with the salt fish, and they would last a fortnight ; when they had meat they had no bacon for a fortnight. They never used tea ; sometimes they drank cocoa. They were obliged to make a quarter of a pound last a fortnight ; if it ran out sooner his wife was obliged to burn a pie ce o f b rea d, an d ma k e i t a substitute for the cocoa. The quarter of a pound cost ad. They I never made use of any sugar, for they had no money to buy it. They generally used a pound of salt per week, a quarter of a pound of candles, and a quarter of a pound of soap—the soap lasted because he never used it himself ; he was obliged to do without it, and washed himself in the brook. Never had any cheese—he would take it if he could get it, and be very glad, but he had no money to purchase it. Had sometimes a little butter, but it was very seldom—not one pound, he would say, in two months. Goals he never bought. A gentleman in his neighbourhood was good enough to give away coals, and he (witness) got 5 cwt., and when it was used up, his little girls were obliged to go out, and pick up whatever tiny got, but fre quently he was without any fire for a considerable time. The broth he bad spoken of was made of water, with a few leeks in it. Sometimes he had a dropfor skim milk in it, and occasionally a bit of bread. Never had any oatmeal, because he could not get it. His rent was two shillings per week, but he had a lodger who paid him one shilling per week. It was inconvenient for him to have the lodger, but he was necessitated to do so, or ho would not be able to pay his rent at all. He owed nothing but for rent—he was seven weeks in arrear. He paid no taxes, since he had the house, but one highway rate of V l d. His cottage had only one room over another, and in his own room there were two beds, one of which was occupied by his children, and the other by himself and his wife. He had not bought any clothes for the last five years. He could not do it, and was clothed almost entirely by gentlemen in his neighbourhood, who kindly gave him their cast-off clothing. The smock-frock he had then on he had had for upwards of six years, and the trousers he wore had been in wear for three years, and were given him by a woman whose husband died. His boots cost lls., and he was obliged to pay for them at 6d., is., or such sum as he happened to be able to spare during the week. They generally lasted about two years, but during that time they had to be mended seven or eight times. His wife had not bought any clothing for her self for a long time, and was obliged to wear any old thing that was given her. He had not been able to buy for the last four or five years any new shoes. His children were obliged to beg for all their clothing from families in the neighbourhood. He had not been en abled to buy them anything for several years but a pin afore, something about 2d. a yard or so—they were al most entirely barefoot, they had only one frock each, and when they wanted washing his wife was obliged to send them to bed until they were dried. Ho was not enabled to send his children to school now—be had one of them at school at one time, for which he paid 2d. a week, but could not now afford it. There was no free day-school in the neighbourhood of Taunton, but he sent some of his children to a Sunday school, which was free. There was a plot of ground attached to his cot tage, but it was small and unfit to grow anything but a few vegetables. He could not grow any potatoes. Bread was cheaper, much cheaper, three or four years ago than it was now, so also were potatoes, still at that ; time he got his 7s. wages, and his allowance of cyder, and although bread was now much dearer lie merely got his Bs. in a week without cyder. Hi s wages had not increased in any degree with the increase in the price of bread and potatoes. At the time that bread and potatoes were so cheap, he was eaabled to buy clothing for himself and family, but now he could not, ner could he so long as they remained at the pre sent prices. His furniture generally was very scanty. He had two beds, one a feather bed, and the other a flock—they were very old, and the bed clothes were much worn : they bad been pieced so often, that they would not be able to piece them much longer. He had kept a pig about four or five years ago, at the time that bread and potatoes were cheaper than now. He could not now afford it. He did not now receive parish re bel. Before the alteration in the Poor-laws he had an allowance of :s. 6d. a-week ; that was now withdrawn, and the only assistance he obtained from the parish was in a case of sickness, when he applied to the parish doctor. About Taunton there were several allotments of ground let out, eoch of which was a quarter of an acre. The rent paid was ss. a quarter, or IL a-year. CHAIRMAN —You said you got 18d. a week from the parish —was that before the new Law ? Yes.— What wages had you then ? Seven shillings a week.—Had you any cider ? Yes.--In your parish did they give higher wages to married men than single ? No ; all were nearly alike.—W hat do you call yourself? I can do any thing in tqe farming line. I can plough, reap, niow, or drive a cart.—You say you kept a pig ; how long was that ago ? I can't tell exactly ; but it was three or four years.—Did you get your bread from your master? No ;of the baker.—Are there any thrash ing machines in your parish? Mr. Waterman thrashed all by flail ; but there are thrashing machines in the parish. When bread was cheap what was the price of pota toes ? About 2s. 6d. or Ss. A DELEGATE then seggested. that as Mr.. Bain es had an import a nt co mmunication to inAke, and this man would be kept several days, he thought his further e x _ amination had better be postponed. The evidence he I Here is undeniable proof of a considerable increase in the export of our principal manufactures ; and, more over, the real increase is greater than the apparent in crease, owing to the value of money having been greater in 1839 than in 1838. Can it, then, be disputed that the year 1839 was one of manufacturing and commercial prospe rity ? Unfortunately it can, and the reverse can be proved to demonstration by the same Parliamentary Return from which the share facts have been extracted. When I first saw the statement of our increased exports, and saw it quoted as a proof of our national prosperity, I confess I was perplexed, becausri I was absolutely certain that the country, instead of being prosperous. was great tie reverse. I was anxious to examine the offic;al return for myself ; and when I did so, the mystevy was solved. I hold the return in my hand. It is headed " Trade and Navigation," and contains utt4er six different heads a statement of the imports and ex ports of the last two years, and of the shipping en .- ployed in oar trade for those years. Having found tixtt the exports had b. en correctly quoted by Mr. Sandet s and others, I turned to the imports, in order to sae tho quantities of the raw materials of our principal manu factures which had been entered for home consumption, knowing that the quantity of raw material consumed ! was the only infallible criterion of what bed been doing by our manufacturers. I turned first to the article o f cotton wool, and looked, not to the imports ',for that might be delusive), but to the quantity catered for home consumption ; and there I found that, so far from there' having been an increase in the quantity last year, as might have been inferred from the goods exported, there was a ,! most important falling off. The quantity of cotton wool entered for home consumption in the year 1838 was 460,756,0131b5. weight ; whilst in the year 1839 it was only 355,781,960%5., or lees by 105,000,0001b5. ; and though the spinners had larger stocks of cotton on hand at the beginning of 1839 than at the beginning. of 1840, yet it is certain that the quantity spun and manu factured last year fell greatly below that of the previous year. For four months, frcm the end of March to the end of July, the weekly consumption was only about half the average weekly consumption of the previous year. I turned next to the quantity of sheep's wool, , and found that there, also, instead of t.n increase in the quantity entered for home consumption, there had been a decline, the quantity entered in 1838 being 56,415,4601b5. weight, and the quantity in 1839 being 53,221,2311b5. This is foreign and colo nial sheep's woo!. Of the quantity of British and Irish wool consumed we have no returns, nor can any be obtained ; but we have very extensive consumer; of that article in the room, from Bradford and Halifax, and I am sure they will bear me out when I say that the qivantity of British wool consumed in 1839 was very I considerably less than the q ua ntity i n 1838. Again, ' turning to the raw material of linen and linen-yarn, r far from an increase, corresponding with the increase in the export of goods, there appears a material decline. I The quantity of flax ente re d f or cons umption having been 1,625,830 cwt. in 1838, and 1,228,894 cwt. in 1839. In the raw materi..l of the silk manufacture also, tile quantity entered for home consumption in the year , 1839 appears to have been below that of the precious year ; in 1838 the quantity of raw silk was 3,683,739 lbs., and in 1839 it was 3,483,3631b5. ; of thrown silk the quantity was 243,5701b5. in 1838, and 229 9411b5. in 1839 ; in silk waste, knubs, and husks there was a slight increase—from 960,1471h5. in 1838, to 1,044,3351b5. in 1839. Again, we have seen that there was an increase in the export of hardwares and cutlery ; but on turning to the raw material, namely, I the first quality of iron, which we import from abroad, and which, therefore, is contained in this list of imports it appears that the quantity of iron entered for home P consumption, instead of increasing, declined. In 1838 there was 19,318 tons of iron entered ; and in 1839 there was only 18,437 tons. Again, in the article of oil, which is so extensively used in our clothing manufactures as to be rec k one d i n t h e light of a re 7v material, ther e was a d ec li ne i n every description ; iu train, blubber, a n d spermacet i o il s, from 28,014 tuns in I 1838, to 22,348 tuns in 1839 ; in palm oil, from 276,809 ewt.to 266,427 cwt. ;in cocoa-nut oil, from 38,781 ca - ' . to 15,541 cwt. ; and in olive oil, from 2,037,987 gallons to 1,815,692 gallons. Lastly, I mention the article of I dyes and dyeing stuffs, in all of which there was a de cline, except i n t h e art i c l es of cochineal and logwood, which were specially wanted for a large quantity of army clothing ; in cochineal, the quantity entered for consumption was 202,0871bs a in 1838 ; and 492,0631b5. I in 1839 ; in logwood, 14,107 tons in 1838, and 17,937 tons in 1839 ; but in indigo there was a decline from . 3,020,5621b 5 . i n 1838, to 2,719,5031b 5 . i n 1839 ; lac dye, from 633,8691b5. to 539,5991b5.; in madder, from 109,385 cwt. to 97,645 cwt.; in madder-root, from 83,725 cwt. to 81,219 cwt.; and in shut - nee, from 208,251 cwt. to 171,222 cwt.
