Report No 2G OF the Deputy Special Commits
sioner Of the Revenue, now In press, contains. in
addluon TO the usual monthly, quarterly, aud COM
paratlVe tables, two new features OF interest and
value which will hereafter form regular part of the
report The first IS statement exhibiting the total
values OF imports, exports, and reexports into and
out OF each customs district, from aud to each of
twenty of the principal countries with which the
united states have trade These tables cover seve-
raj pages or the report, and will be perused
perhaps with more interest than any other portion
The second new feature of the report is a table
anticipating the statement OF the trade of the
country for the next succeeding month"; so far as
the accounts are received at the time the report
goes to press Owing TO the great distances of
some OF the outlying customs districts, several
weeks must necessarily elapse after the close of
period before the accounts can be received, ex-
alnlneu, returned Qt may be for correction, and
compiled at the Statistical Bureau. Meantime
the returns for still another month may come to
hand from the great majority of the customs dis
trtcts According to the new arrangement at the
Bureau the general facts Of these accounts will be
given to the public I'm advance. Thus:-Monthly
Report No. &c. being for the month of April contains

re-eXports into and out Of siXty-one customs dis
tricts for the month Of May
