() From 1840 to 1861, inclusive, the exports exceed the imports; the reason of this is that melado or 
sirup of sugar-cane was frequently entered for importation under the name ot molasses. Previous 
to 1840 the only entries on record under their proper heading are 1,182 pounds imported, and 3,7@1 
pounds exported. These quantities have been added to brown sugar in their respective years.
