quarter OF 1856.
The English Board Of Trade returns for the month end

ordinary mesns OF comparison. The system Of
making the returns TO the end instead Of to ths 9Th

beuceorth the dates of the tables will again each month
correspond with these Of the preceding In the pro-
sent return exports are shown 70 have amounted to
