"The Commissioners of Costems at a score of parts along the coast and on the Yangise were instructed by circular to mako irgaly in their respective districs and draw up replica to questionsappended to the clicalar. That circalar and the Commissioners' reposts are given in fall,sad to a separa'e tible the answers to the questions are brought together for greater con- Ventence. With these questions and answers to start from an answer to the qu-sifon at the head of this fatroductory note can be easily worked out.
"In round numbers, the annual importation i of forein oplum may be stid to amount to 100,000 chests, or, allowing 100-cattles to esch chest, 10,000.000 cattles (the cafly is the Chinoso pound: one catty is equal to one pound and a third avoirdupoit). When boiled down and converted lato what is known as prepared opiam, the raw drug loses about 30 per cent, in weight; accordingly, 10000,000 cailles of the unprepared drag imported reach the bands of retailers av, say, 7000,000 calties of prepared aplum. The catly is divided into 16 Hang (unces), and the Harg into tenths called mace; la 7,000,000 cailles there are therefore [7,000,000 by 16 by 10] 1,110,000,000 mace of prepared oplum for
