Sunlit must berecollected that up to this time the trade of the
year, as far as this tows is coecersed, has bees a meat ilia-
movement cm what it was is 1868; it was sot until towards
the end of Mardi that orders began to fall off ; up to that
time there had bees a very urge amount of bottoms doing,
probably 26 per cant. gre der than it was in the corresponding
