CHINESE CO3IIIEIICE.—The returns of the trade
of the Chinese ports open to foreign flags show that the
total amount of the trade of China carried on under foreign
flags amounted in the year 1865 to the estimated value of
237,507,922 tads, equal to very nearly a third of that num-
ber of pounds sterling. This is au increase of about
28,000,000 taels over the previous year. It includes the
amount of the whole import and export trade, and the
amount of the imported and exported treasure, less the
amount of the re-exports. At the port of Shanghai, which
is partly a depot for other ports, the import and export of
treasure could not be correctly ascertained, and is not in-
eluded in the above amounts. The total estimated value of
the imports, foreign and native coast trade, amounted in
1865 to 169,950,334 tads, an increase of 27,000,000 WO
over the preceding year. To these imports the different
countries contributed as follows :—Great Britain and her
possessions, 57,735,771 taels; Japan, 2,454,109 taels;
United States, 482,593 taels ; sundry countries, including
the whole of the Continent, 2,620,987 taels ; Chinese
ports, 79,809,253 taels; making a total of 148,102,70
taels, not including treasure. The exports of 1865 were
as follows: —To Groat Britain and her possessions,
50,161,697 taels ; to Japan, 270,743 taels ; United State,
5,864,823 taels ; sundry countries, 3,757,834 taels ; t°
other open Chinese ports, 44,110,354 taels; making °
total of 104,165,451 taels, in addition to treasure ex,
ported of the value of 29,052,096 taels, an increase
iu the grand total of nearly 12,000,000 taels over the
previous year. But the re-exports would have to be de-
ducted to arrive at the true value of the export trade. lir'
Hart, Inspector-General of Customs, reports to the 'feting-
le.-Yamen that the diminished supply of cotton, in cense:
quence of the American troubles, has exercised a preindil-
cial influence on the revenues of China, but that an in'
crease in the import duties may now be expected. Reviewing
the supervision by Commissioners from October, 1860, t°
June, 1865, five years, minus one quarter of a year, the
spector-General of Customs finds that the import dutieet
have amounted to about 12,000,000 taels, and the exP°,l*.
duties to about 18,000,000 taels. The revenue of all kill':
accruing to the Chinese Government on foreign trivia 9:
the treaty ports has in the five years amounted to ab°l/:
32,560,000 taels. The Inspector-General observes ths"
foreign merchants come to China to trade because it fol:
them to do so, and that these figures show that t
Chinese—merchants, people, and Government—aro 0°
without their share in the advantages springing frl,
commercial intercourse, The revenue amounted
2,531,763 taels in the first three-quarters of a yetV
6,635,917 taels in the year ending the 30th of June, 186'.
7,859,466 taels iu the third year 1862-63 ; 7,728,747 taelel°
the fourth year, 1863-61; 7,803,587 taels in the fifth Ye``
1864-65 ; so that the annual revenue is now nearer
£3,000,000 than to .£2,000,000.
