 Leaving, for home consumption 



Should there be no export to the -Continent in the course of 18O8, a 

 quantity equal to what was exported during 1807, as above stated, will be 

 thrown upon the market for home consumption ; to which must be added, 

 the quantity of sugar which may be expected from the Danish Islands ; 

 and the consequence of such a glut must necessarily be, a very considerable 

 .'.eduction in the price of sugar, unless an additional vent shall be found 

 -t home to take off the surplus.
