The export Of produce merchandise and specie
Tor the week ending yesterday was more than
twice the aggregate amount OF the importations
of foreign goods. Besides produce and specie, OF
the export Of which we have an authentic record
a the Custom House. there was sent abroad last
week considerable amount OF American seouri-
ties. chiefly Illinois Central stock and bonds.
Whether IN equal amount was received from
kurope--it IL known that some securities have
been coming oves--there In no means Of ascev-
tanning. The british journals. In their exaspcrs-
ton q, the continued prosperity Of this country,
AMI NJ the mistaken resolution Of our people In
carrying on the wal. congratulate themselves that
when our river navigation closes those enormous
exports ~ produce which have paid for our foreign
imports. and kept the outward How Of coin down
20 = moderate point. viii fall on suddenly. The
London papers are willing 20 inhct upon their own
people the hardship OF dear food, provided only
they can thereby njure but there IL no prospect
that these charitable anticpatons win be realized.
We we're enabled last winter. BY the aid Of our
railways. 10 bring 10 port produce enough TO keep
the balance OF trade in our favor. and we shall do
The same this winter. Most energetic arrange
ments are being perfected on all the trunk lines
tor the increase Of their carrying capacity. IL may
safely be predicted that more produce viii be
moved by rail 20 the seaboard this winter than was
ever done before. The bullion export continues
moderate. and viii not increase very materially
unlcss our imports receive q further development.
The leading importers agree In the statement that
they have sent and are sending but few orders to
the other side. But we have 80 often seen this
assertion followed BY heavy arrivals Of foreign
goods that II must always be received with eau
tion.
The following are the Official tables OF tho trade
