ra,ive extent and importance of this trade demands
for every guaranty which can be claimed for any
other line of foreign trade. This s at once apparent
from the following summary: "By the report of the
Secretary of the Treasury, for the year ending 3Oh

1857 Of the United States with the West Indies, &C.,
mot including Cube,) Brazi! aud the Argentine re-

s65,3il,6l7. BY the came report, the aggregate OF
the trade with Russia Prussia, Sweden, Norway,
Hamburg, Bremen, Holland and Belgium, was
6462S tons the value Of $50 i62 S4 being 81 per
cent less in tons and l2l per cent ess in value than
the trade with the countries on the proposed ne.-
The aggregate tonnage Of the trade with France in
1857 was but 47S,45S TONS or about one half but the
value of it was sSi OBS 1885, 80 per cent more than
that of the countries in question The report shows
that the trade of Great Britain alone in tonnage and
value, surpassed that Of these countries"
