Being 2,300 tons less than remained at this time last 
year; but our import in the last 11 months, it will be 
observed, has been 2,450 tons less than in the same 
period of 1814, and 300 tons more have been delivered 
this year, so that our stock, although yet considerable, 
is on] the decrease. 
Comparatively, the stock of West India coffee in 
London is still less, but that of Java, &c, is very heavy, 
and most of the continental markets appear to be pretty 
well supplied with all descriptions. Prices have there- 
fore again declined last month, and the demand is so 
inconsiderable, (as indeed is usually the case at this 
season,) as to render quotations partly nominal, nor do 
we look for any improvement during winter, although 
probably some may take place when trade re-opens in 
spring. Coffee, the growth of the B.P., should always 
be accompanied with complete certificates of its being 
such, in order that it may have the advantage of the 
demand for home use, as well as for exportation, and 
more especially now that the inland duties are so greatly 
reduced as to insure a considerable home consumption. 
Coffee cannot be legally imported in packages weighing 
less than 100 lbs. nor cocoa less than 112 lbs. nett.

450 Bags only imported this year, and as little of it 
remains, prices are quite arbitrary : any considerable 
supply would, however, occasion an immediate depres- 
sion.
