The slight des crease in value is caused by falling prices ; the tables of quantiles showing an increase. Eng- land's exports of hardware and cutlery for those years were worth £1,194 716, 1.045,606, and 1.834,481 very much more serious basineist In 8 we exported hardware and cutlery to the value of £4,107.125; since then there has been an almost steady declension til in '95 the total reached is hat £1,856,532,
