1824 came, and the crop, instead of being reduced, was increased from nearly 95,000 hogsheads to upwards of 99,000 hogsheads.

The coffee crop was also greater by seven millions of pounds.

In 1825, they fall off to 73,860 hogsheads and twenty-one millions.

In 1826, the sugar crop rather exceeded that of 1824, but the coffee crop was seven millions less.

In 1827, from causes not known to us, for none were assigned, there was a difference of 16,000 hhds.
