The plain linen exported to Great Britain generally 

 amounts, in official value, to upwards of two millions. 

 Formerly the United States took off the next largest 

 quantity in the year 1811, to the value of upwards of

 of 100, 000. Spain, since the commencement of her 

 revolution, has taken, in 1809, upwards of 120,000; 

 ami in 1815, \ipwards of 90,000. The exportation of 

 coloured linen, as appears from the Table, is decreasing. 

 In lt~04 it amounted to upwards of 10,000.
