OLD ENGLAND AND YOUNG AMERI-
cA.-The foreign commerce of Ameri-
ca required in 1853 81, $50 ships, with
tonnage of 6,605,O45 tons. The
crews in the American vessels thus en-
ployed numbered 142, 234, and in the
foreign, l03, $3.50. During the same
year there were 1913 ships which
entered and cleared the ports of the
British Empire, with tonnage of 49,
800, 991 tons. The tonnage employed
on both sides was nearly equal guam
titles of native and foreign build-the
American ships averaging larger
though less numerous than the British.
The steam tonnage of America ex-
ceeds the British, being 729,39O to
4S8, AIS. Two-thirds of the foreign
trade of America is carried on with
Great Britain and its possessions. The
importations Of the United States, in
1858, were about ESQ, $1,000 more
than one-half of which came from Eng
land the exports about f63, 600, 900,
okwhich IS per cent went to England.
