BRITISH AND FOREIGN SHIPPING.

[From a Correspondent.)
By the comparative statements of British and Foreign
tonnage which have entered the several ports of Great
Britain for the last ten years ending the sth of January,
1826, printed by order of the House of Commons, it
appears that
In 1825 the British amounted to 2,786,844 tons.
In 1816 1,966,890

Inci ease - 819,954, or 41i per cent.
In 1825 the Foreign amounted to 892,601 tom
In 1816 - - 817,577

Increase - 675,024, or 181 per cent,
To judge, however, more correctly of the effect
which the reciprocity system has had in increasing the
amount of foreign tonnage employed in the trade of
Great Britain, it becomes necessary to confine the
statement to those places from which foreign shipping
have competed with British. From such pods it ap-
pears that
In 1826 the British amounted to 1,133,60 tons.
In 1816 - 750,219

!mean - 583,330, or 60 per cent.
Foreign tonnage as above. Increase 576,024, or 181 per cent.
So that, although the liberal policy adopted by Great
Britain encouraged the employment of the shipping of
friendly States, yet it appears that a greater portion of
British tonnage wag employed in trading with those
States after the new system came into operation.
It further appears, by dissecting the statement, that
the British tonnage employed in trade with places
from which no importations are allowed in foreign

amounted:
- - 1,216,671 .

Increase

436,624, or 36 per cent.

Last year, there were exported from Great Britain, goods, ac-
cording to the official estimates, of the value of 56435,5144
