The journal remarks:
The exports of products of the sea show very lit
tie change in value. 1t is little remarkable that
the shipments of whalebone average more than one
dollar per pOnnd, so that with falling OFT equal to
nearly 80 per cent in quantity, the value shipped is
nearly the same. The great consumption for hoop
ed skirts before the substitution OF steel, will partly
explain this difference. In products OF the forest
the change Is not as great as might have been anti
cipated the decrease being little more than one mil
lion dollars. The greatest decline is in the products
Of agriculture; beef and pork (including hogs)
show gain the previous year, but large def
cheney may be remarked in bacon and lard. Bread
stuts, especially wheat and wheat flour, show
important decrease the difference in those two
items being about twenty dollars. The cotton ship
ments remain about the same, but there is falling
off in crude tobacco of nearly three millions, and
gain in manufactured tobacco of about mil
lion. The other items show an aggregate decrease.
The export of bullion and coin has been:

Of the decrease for 1858 the Courier and Enquirer
says:
Comparing these statements it will be seen that
the decrease in exports in the years 1856 and 1858
is chiefly in the agricultural products.
The difference in the exports for those two years
is as follows:

There is more than coincidence in figures here;
and it must be apparent to every in comparing
these two years, that the decrease in exports, or
the loss of trade falls mainly, if not entirely, upon
the producers or farmers.
DECREASE OF MARRIAGES IN BosToN.-The Boston
TraUeler says: The times and have been for the
past year undeniaby hard for the middng classes
in our city and in consequence there has been in
the year 1858 marked decrease of the number of
those taking upon themselves the responsibilities of
matrimony. In 1857, we believe there was a de
crease from the previous year, and this year we
have another decrease of the number of intentions
issued by the City Registrar, compared with the
same period in 1857, Of three hundred and fifty
two, the number this year being twenty y-two hun
dred and thirty-four As usual of late years,
majority of the applicants persons of foreign
birth.

in London, for the purpose of showing the pro
gress made in Industry and Art during each pc
riOd of ten years, would tend greatly to the
encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Com

o That the first of these Exhibitions ought not
to be a repetition of the Exhibition of 1851 which
must be considered an exceptional event but
should be an exhibition of works selected for ex-
cellence, illustrating especially the progress Of
Industry and Art, and arranged according to class
es, and not countries, and that it should compre-
bend Music and also Painting, which was excluded
in 1851.
3. That foreigners should be invited to exhibit on
the same conditions as British Exhibitors.
