Decline Of .1,c Trade with America.
/. appears from return Just laid before Parlia-
mcnl, on the motion of ii-. Thornley,, that the
exports of British goods 10 the United States OF
America, IN the year lSl2, were less in value by
the sum ofncarly twelve hundred thousand pounds
than they were III any previous year since 1888,
md that they were less by more than one half
than the average annual exports than the nllc
preceding years; the average yearly exports from
1883 to lSI2 (both years InCluslve) being OF the
value of G1 $4,000, whilst those OF lS42 were
not Of more value than f3, ,52S, ,SO1. This alarm
InT decline III the largest branch OF the foreign
trade of the country, we regret TO say, Is not con.
fined to few or even to several articles, but eX-
tends to all, with the single exception Of tin and
timed plates as will be seen from the following
fluctuations which have taken place during the
period referred to:
The value of the apparel and haberdashery cx-
ported from England to the United States in
1888 was Gl27,9 Oil; III 1886, G25i.2 .2G9 andin
per manufactures IN 1888 was Gl5S, ,i56; in
1886, f21s,U2S: and in l642, ESQ, $50. The
value of the cotton manufactures and cotton yarn

and in 1912, fl6o,S73 The value of the hard
wares and cutlery in 1888 was f7ll,3O5; in
1886, fl BIS ll2; and in 1912, G29S .SSl. The
oT tl,o md c.rcl urr,t
wrought, in 1883 was G4l5,5l5; in 1886, f9l3,-
3S7: and in lSl2, G39lc5l The value of the
linen manufactures including linen yarn, in 1888
ES32,6l2; in 1886, .fl666,0l2, and in l6l2,
tl63 1853. The value OF the silk manufactures
in 1888 was c25l ,27S; in 1895, f537 ,0lO, and
in 1912, Isl ,2l3. The value of the tin and

f2l6.378; and in 1913, El44, ,l5l. The value
ofthc wooden manufactures in 1886 was i2,209,-
$50; in 1886, IL, ,lG9, ,l9S and in 1912, .tS92,-
335, and the value of the other British and Irish
Goods in 1893 was 1858, ~; in 1885, fl,025,-
359; and in 1912, fi22, ,104. The total value
of the British exports to America III 1888 was
c7,579, ,699 in 1886, II ,l25, sos; and in 1872,
G3 ,52S ,607.
The imports from the United States into this
country show very different result. The I'M
port of bark has increased between 1888 and 1912
from S,159 cwts. 10 - Gas cwts.: that of sailed
beef from 500 cwts to 1921 cwts.; that OF butter
from | cwt. to },7G9 cwts.; that of cheese from9
cwts. to II ,G91 cwts. that OF wheat from nothing
10 l6, III qrs. that OF wheaton flour from 80, 659
cwts. TO 3Sl ,066 cwts. that of hams from II
cwts. to 1888 cwts. that of lard from nothing TO
26,555 cwts. that OF pork from 1852 cwts. to
l3,40S cwls ; that of rice from "a l3 quarters

wool from 237 500 15S lbs TO 1ll U3O, Il9 lbs:
that of turpcntine from 322, ,4S6 cwls. to 40S, ,330
cwts. and that Of sleeps wool from 334, 67S lbs.
to SCI ,02S lbs
With regard to shipping, the American tonnage
lentcrcd) has increased from 229, ,S69 tons to
3l9, ,524 and the British tonnage from ll4,200
to 1851 tons.
After making every allowance for the more
than usual embarrassment of trade in the United
States, in 1912 the first part of the above return
cannot be regarded as being otherwise than mos,
uniavorablc to the prospects OF English industry,
while the second shows that the balance OF trade
is turning against this country in manner which
renders 1t doubtful whether we shall not shortly
have to pay for American Cotton in specie IN
stead of goods Nothing but very great revival
of the demand for English manufactures can save
US from this evils and, without reform OF the
American Tariff, there is very little hope of any
revival AT all equal to the necessities OF the case,
but must consent 10 make liberal concessions
if VIC wish or hope to receive them.
