Domestic and Colonial Commerce,

The Report Of Israel D. Andrews to Score.
'ary Corwin on the Fisheres-lhe Colonies
Canada-'hr great Western lakes, Rivers and
Railroads, making volume Of about 900 pa
ges, is about ready for distribution. The i'm.
mense amount Of authentic statistical inform
a'lon which 1t contains, renders it invaluable
as book of reference, and ref ,cts great credit
upon its author. From this Report we learn
al the gross value of The commerce Of the
lake ports, in 1851, was 1926 ,OOO,O 900; licensed
American tonnage, 2l5000; entered and
cleared at all the other plr,s about 9 10000
tons. Our commerce with Canada was over
Sl2,000,0 900, Of which over two-hirds were
exports. The Canada trade for 1852 has fallen
of over $ 100000, while the lake coasring
trade has increased abou, twenty five per cen. :;
making gross aggregate for last year Of over
100000 000 There will soon be completed
an aggregate length Of % 500 miles Of ra ilroad
In the United States costing about ! $50 OOO-
600. Over 800 miles are in actual operation
the balance is in progress. 1t may be said that
nearly every mile Of these roads w,ll have a
favorable effect upon the business Of New York,
as the great commercial! heart Of the conlede-
acy.
The British Colonies have an area of2l7,
33o,4l5 acres and population Of = 100000
commerce with ali counties amounting To
$4,000, 000 Of which about $4,000 is with
the [. States, and $4,000 with Grea, Britain.
These colonies own and employ shipping
measuring nearly 100000 tons. Full statistics
OF the fisheries are contained in tbs report ac-
companed by historical view Of the English,
French and American fisheries, and the reuula-
tons by which theyare governed. Commercial
notices, with detailed sateman's of the con-.
merce of all the princpal lake and river towns
