year; whereas in the export trade of New York. in only

from this city been greater than in ls44.
The import trade of Boston has not increased much
from additional demand for consumption, from
change in the channel Of Importation the facilities for
shipping goods direct from foreign ports to Boston,

goods Boston has not increased in the proper

foreign imports is not regulated by the facilities We
have for consuming them, much the facilities

population Of about fifteen millions while in Is4s with
population of more than twenty millions, the imports
