'• It will thus be perceived, that the total import of 

 Cotton into Liverpool during the six years from 1785 

 to 17^)0. inclusive, was 1441 bags, 'lliough the above 

 statement shows a progressive incrc.ise. it apjiears 

 that the dem:md was neither uniform nor extensive 

 the import in 1789 ha\-iug exceeded that of the fol 

 lowins year 7il bags. From this period, however 

 the tnide. especially as regards Liverpool, has in 

 creased with astonishing rapidity. In the year 1785 

 the import amounted to no more than 14 bags, and 

 in 1789, which is the largest import shown in the 

 above statement, it was 812 bags."
