Chill, according to the commercial statistics Of
the same year, imported, in all her ports, to the
amount OF IL 200 pesos, with apopulation Of one
sumption OF the Argentine Republic, which counts
only one million of inhabitants.
These estimates are far from being exaggerated,
the custom honse Of Rosario having furnished the
standard on which the official entries in all other
custom houses have been regulated. Besides, con.
traband importation cannot figure in this valuation
for example, Saltsa, which is put down for only
1855 900 pesos, imports in reality, to the amount Of
one million and q half from Valparaiso Mendoza
one million, and, in the same proportion, San JUAN
For the year 1864, the custom houses of Cata-
marca, Roja ana some others, were in complete
disorganization from having been national instead
Of provincial.
In Buenos Ayres neither silk, jewelry, nor other
precious objects of small volume, presented in
The custom house-a fact which has led to reform
in the import duties Neither are hides, which pay
a very small export duty, represented in the gen.
eral summary, even for two-thirds, which is about
the value OF the number Of hides brought to the
market. Besides as there is deduction of ten per
cent from the real value of the merchandise the
above figure represents them much less than their
real value. In this manner after having made
the necessary deductions, the sum Of thirty mil
lions Of pesos would appear to be rather below
than above the true value of the imports of the Ar
gentine Republic, as it is necessary, in order to
match the consumption Of the thirteen other pro-
vinces with that of Buenos Ayres, which consumes
little less than the half Of that sum, and as the
expectation Of BuenOs Ayres is equal to its importa
ton, We must suppose that. the industry of the
provinces being the same as that OF Buenos Ayres.
thirty millions is exported from the ports OF
both oceans. which raises the commercial movement
of this country to sixty millions OF pesos.

tions relative to the commercial movement of Buenos
Ayres, which viii serve to give general idea of
the commerce of the republic. Since the fall Of the
administration of Dictator Rosas, which displayed
great ignorance in commercial affairs il has not az
yet been possible to assemble the necessary statti-
cal materials to enable us to establish with precision
the consumption Of the country in the different
branches Of commerce. Let us, for example, take
the number Of yards OF imported cloth and compare
it with the number Of inhabitants; we can easily
calculate how many yards fall 70 the share of each
individual, and we may come to o conclusion az to
the amount Of individual comfort enjoyed. One
fact will serve proof Of this general idea I ,
order TO test how far the country has improved in
riches and luxury since the fall of Rosss and his
barbarous system of government, VIZ asked of an
old merchant Of the province the number of non
chos of Santiago Ga kind of cloth banket which he
had sold in two corresponding periods in the year
lsi5 and 1866: in the first year he sold 2OOin the
latter $500. The imported cloth poncho has gene.
rally taken the place Of the homemade, and a
peasant wonld pass for very poor il he had not two
or even three, cloth poncbos besides two vests ex
cept when he has substituted the coat and panta
looms, custom which Is becoming more general
This fact is sufficient evidence that in no other
country do people make relatively 20 large con.
sumption of cloth as the Inhabitants Of the Arpen
tine republic. In Chill every adult male inhabsnt
uses half yard Of cloth; in Buenos Ayres four
yards--the poncho containing three yards
It appears from the official statistics that in the
first six months OF 1866 there was exported from Bne
nos Ayree to the amount Of 900 900 pesos dollars,
