The imports divine into France rom italy
and spain are quite new trade. Until the
lat five or six years they aere of Il merely
nominal am mt: they now lar exceed the
exports, and France no longer produces suti-

difference between the value of tho Imports
and exports, which were S2SS 90. 0l9 and sl45,-

difference in quantity. az the imports consist

forty-fve centlmes perlitre while the greater
part of the exports were OF superiorsorts,
valued at from II To II DC.
