This gives an increase of $20,000,000 over the large exports of 1856, and an increase of $44,000,000, as compared with 1858. The exports of specie, not included in the above, show a decrease of $27,600,000.

We now annex our usual detailed statement showing the exports of domestic produce, foreign dutiable and free goods, and specie during each month of the last four years :-

EXPORTS FROM NEW YORK TO FOREIGN PORTS DURING THE YEARS 1857-8-9-60.

Total.............

$117,724,329 $85,639,643 $137,696,187 $145,683,451

We also present our annual comparative statement of the wholesale prices at this port of the leading articles of foreign and domestic produce, which will be found very interesting. There are few, even of those who are engaged in the trade, who can remember the changes in price from year to year, and this table, if preserved, will be found very useful for reference. We may now bring down our annual tables of prices for January 3d of each year. The result is generally lower figures notwithstanding the large exports of produce, under the supplies coming from good harvests:
