In our imports it will be seen that we have imported largely for local improve- 

 ments, which are to be permanent fixtures; such as tanning leather and manu- 

 facturing lumber. Deducting these amounts, and the balance of traile instead of 

 being, as it now appears, against us, will be in our favoi'. 



I am, very respectfully, yours,
