and find that the exports of every article is on a din+
nishin scale. Tnus in 1846 we exported 12 989 quark
ters of wheat, barley, oats, but in 1847 only 1,523 gni,
of flour. The exports in 1846 were 8.889 cwt. ; in:
1847, 3,331 cwt. Of rice, we export 25,504 cwt. in
1846, and only 647 cwt. in 1847. The value of British
and Irish produce exported in 1846 was 6,810,159"
sterling, and in 1847 6,524,217/. A difference easily re'
gained.
In shipping 2.492 vessels of 505,579 tons entered in-
wards in 1846, against 2,744 vessels of 584.468 tons in
1847. Outwards, in 1846, there were 2,728 ships of
