tain an accurate statement of the exports
during the season, to institute close COM
parison between the Custom House returns
and the entries of cottons cleared according to
the books of the various agents. This has
be en- done from time to tina during the sea-
son with coastwise steamers, resulting in ma
terial corrections. The comparison has also
been extended to foreign steam and sail and
coastwise sail. vessels, the accounts Of which
have. been thoroughly overhauled for the en-
tire season, so that statement of exports as
given above may be considered as near correct
Is possible.
the season include q net excess in clearances
to coastwise ports of 7058 bales, and to Great
Britain of 900 bales over the actual quantity
of cotton exported. The actual exports to
France show net excess over Custom-House
clearances of 81 bales.
These corrections, together with deduc-
ton of 1858 bales, errors in gross receipts, con-
atitute difference between the apparent ex-
cess of stock at date of July count, and the
actual excess found this date.
The actual count of stock in presses and
pickeries was made by the Assistant Superb.

A writer in the st. Louis Trade Journal
says:
In 1874 of the importations into Brazil,
ENGLAND furnished 46 per cent, France II per
cant and the United States per cent; and OF
the exportations out Of Brazil, England took
but 9 per cent. France per cent, and the
United States 46 per cent
Commodities seek exchange. for the most
mart. across lines of latitude, in regions
Thare the products are dissimilar. An I'M
mense amount of the imports OF Brazil are OF
such articles, produce or merchandise, as are
nroduced at the West, and in which, with
proper facilities for direct trade, the West
should enjoy the monopoly 49, contra, the
rivalry and opposition Of the whole CONNER
cial world.
Each nation or country, from its climate
and soil have essentially and exactly, IN over
flowing abundance, of that which the otner
renuires. needs, uses and consumes. Brazil
ian merchants are tired OF palronlAng Inc
slow and uncertain mode of transportation oy
sailing vessels, and are not only eager Tor the
desirable change to steam, but are snrewoIy
calculating the reduction of rates on western
products via New Orleans. by which the vaI'-
ous profits and charges via New York and bai-
timore, tackled on to the original cost OF eacn
article, will be materially lessened and saved.
Brazil depends on foreigners for nearly all its
breadstuffs. and other produce ana man ulAc-
sures, and the Mississippi Valley produces an
overplus Of Just the articles they must have
do consume, and absolutely need IN repay
mont for their coffee, hides, sugar. caoot-
chouc, and other tropical productions.
