DENMARK.

Mr. Strachey, Secretary of the British Legation
at Copenhagen, in his report this year, gives the
estimated putlic expenditure of Denmark for the
year 1869-70 at £2,533,630. The annual deficit
has almost disappeared since the introduction of
genuine Parliamentary government in 1865. The
national debt has been reduced to £13,238,000. The
military items of the Buttget contain nearly one'
third of the whole expenditure. The law of
1867 introduced the Prussian system of
versal liability to serve, but British subjects
have been exempted by special arrangement.
The infantry soldier, when drawn, remains for sis
months with his instructors, and is then sent home.
Every two years the men of the active army
will be
called out for a short drill. The future Danish
army is 40,000 strong, bat some time must elapse
field
before above 25,000 men really fit to take the
can be mustered. The navy includes five ironclads,
but only one, the Lindormen, is up to the present
standard. The whole external commerce of Den-
mark in the year ending with March, 18631
amounted to 2,708,944,5451 b. Danish (1.1 avoir-
dupois) 1,860,000,0001 b imports and 845,000,0001b'
exports. The imports show a tendency to grey('
the exports to diminish. The share of Great Bri-
tain in the whole movement has fallen to 39 9 per
cent. The imports are chiefly colonial products,
sugar producing nearly one-fourth of the whole
Customs revenue, and yielding in the year 1361-68
a duty of 1,333,354 rix dollars. In the same Year
cotton and flax goods itnporte I yielded 646,374 r
dollars, and woollens 603,442 rix dollars ;
calculating the sterling equivalent it is cow
'
mon to work with the round divisor 9. Meta s
yielded 317,352 rix dollies. This is a large
crease, owing chiefly to improved trade in iron and
iron goods, particularly iu rails and sleepers. Eng-
land delivered the greater part of the plates, tia,
anchors, chains, cables, and nearly all the iron for
railway constructions, but Sweden is gradually
driving out our rod and hoop iron, as well as car
nails and spikes. The iron of all kinds declared
for duty in the year amounted to 62,089,7241 b. in
1867-68; in the previous year it was but 44
mil-
lions. The exports of the chief articles of domestic
produce of Denmark in 1867-68 declined in value
to £2,218,780. The exportation of serials has been
declining for two years, and reached only 1,400,500
qrs., a falling off of nearly 30 per cent. as compared
with 1865-66. The change cannot be altogether_
referred to bad harvests. England takes above halt
the cereal and leguminous exports. The average
Danish cereal harvest maybe taken at about 8,500,000
qrs., and the whole export may be about half that
of Austria or the Danubian Provinces. The Danish
contribution of foreign corn for England, however,
700,000 to 800,000 qrs., is an important part of the
English supply. The last Danish harvest was very
plentiful, wheat especially being superabundant.
There is a falling off in the export of live stock
from Denmark in 1867-68 from 141,449 head to
125,915 head. The English take of cereals acd
live stock of Denmark declined 21 per cent. in 1867-
68. England again took the greater part of thei
butter, meat, bacon, hams, wools, skins, oilcakes, and
teeth sent from Denmark ; but in these articles
there is a general gross decline. Owing to the
lessened exports, there was a decline in the 1011"
voyages registered in 1867-68; but the shipPi.'tgh
clearances of the year are stated at 84,984,
tonnage 840;948, an improvement of 10 per cent. a'
the number of vessels, and a tonnage nearly the saille,
as in 1865-66. There is an increased tendency o
.
steamers to supersede sailing ships in the coas
trade, which is almost exclusively carried on DOI or
bottoms.
