Note. — On account of the comparatively easy reduction of seven bags of sugar per 

 ton, it has been the established and invariable custom when doing statistical work, to 

 calculate the bags of sugar, at the rate of 320 lbs. of sugar only, and the present 

 statement is based on this practice. Inasmuch as practically the total crop has been 

 put into bags of 13 arrobas, or 325 Spanish lbs. and as each Spanish lb equals, 1.0161 

 English lb. we have estimated (after discounting what coiTesponds to the moderate 

 number of small bags utilized) that the quantity of sugar produced this season, 

 reached even more than the 3,500,000 tons. ^ ^ HIMELY Habana.
