But the first gua way no lance of trade with England bas usually been against us for the last forty:years. The éffect of this inequality would have long ago pro- duced disaster here had it not been for our bonds and railroad and othersecurities ; which, offering a mort lucrative employment for capi- tal than European investments of a like cha- racter, have been readily sold in the British market and have thus wade up the deficit in our yearly accounts. When we imported thirty or forty millions werth of goods from England over and above the net product of our cotten. breadstuffs and other staple exports, we paid exports of merchandise. Much talk of curtail- corresponding course of action. #itherto is hardly worth notice. The other was as fast as it reached us from California. Duricg the fiscal year 1853-4, we sent off thirty-one n illions of specie against twenty-one the year previous. As the market forour bonds became du) ter and duller, our shipments necessarily in- crea bed; and we are now sending abroad from $1,210,080 to $1,400,000 per week, which would g ve :W annual total of nearly seventy mil lions (Wf dollars, more than our whole receipts from C; viifernia.

The population of Brooklyn is equal to that of any ober city in the Union, except New York’end Philadelphia.
