of his investigation into the trade

of

year

1866 and his general result for that tallies almost exactly with the figures

given by

Mr Hart, whilst his

full.

I cannot therefore do better than

give

his

concluding summary in full. It

is as follows:

Summary for 1866.

Taels. Sterling. Imports 172,462,136 £40,332,532 Exports 102,423,034 Treasure Total Imports + Exports 54,613,008 12,771,987 32,592,295 13,862,955 43,777,755 Total 359,495,455 £113,840,225 275,385,170 87,205,303 84... 110,285 261 634 922

The above figures show the total

value of foreign trade with China

These however

including

The

re-Exports

must be deducted to arrive at the true

amount.

Total value of foreign trade 359,495,455 £113,840,225 Deduct re-Exports 59,565,914 £18,862,539 True value of Foreign Trade 299,929,541 £94,971,656

Hence

it will be

seen

that foreign trade with China in the year 1866 amounted to close upon ninety-five

Millions of pounds sterling.

and of that

trade the share of Great Britain amounted

to no less than £71,519,728 or nearly 76

per cent.
