The exports from New York to foreign ports,
exclusive of specie, for the month OF October,
exceeded thirteen million dollars, and were,
therefore, more than half as large again as the
total imports for the same period last year
The Journal of Commerce says: October will
probably be the banner month OF the year, as
the exports were over one million IN excess oil
the June total, which was then helargest OF any
single month since the settlement OF the port,
The corresponding month Of last year was very
active In this trade, but was succeeded by two
still heavier, the last quarter Of 1860 showing
an enormous aggregate. Large as that was,
however, we shall probably exceed 1t the cur
rent season. Total exports since January Let,
