and that America made more Sugar than Europe and America could consume."(Review, vol. 13th, &c.) Well, the consumpt of Great Britain is increased from their standard by which they meant to plant and cultivate, viz. 1,533,421 cwts., as in 1775, to the quantity, as we have shewn, of 3,354,820 cwts. in 1818; and yet these gentlemen, to lessen the ruinous excess of the quantity of Sugar raised beyond the quantity required, saw no other remedy but to set instantly about rooting out the canes, and laying waste the fields, or, to use their own language, "a diminished culture of the Sugar Cane all over the West Indies." -(Review, vol. 13th, page 384, &c.) Their friend, Napoleon, could not have given an advice more conducive to his interests, or injurious to the interests of Great Britain. Course of Exchange, January 1.-Amsterdam, 11:6:2 U.
