Details are also given of vessels entering inwards or clearing outwards in those ports, distinguishing those of British and foreign build. Files relating to revenue provide accounts of the annual payments into the Exchequer arising from the Customs, Excise, stamp duties, land and assessed taxes, Post Office, Lotteries, etc. The tables are made out for periods of five or ten years.
