[10] In 1840, the total amount was estimated at L180,000,000, of which
L47,000,000, at that period, was for exportation, and L133,000,000 for
the home market. As this L47,000,000 had swelled, in 1846, to
L53,000,000, it is reasonable to suppose that those for the home market
had undergone a similar increase, and are now about L200,000
annually.--See _Speckman's Stat. Tables for_ 1842, p. 45.
