A National Intelligencer correspondent argues Britain gains more than twice what the U.S. does from cotton trade. Using 1846 returns, Britain's cotton manufactures exported value near 112,700,000 pounds. raw cotton cost 30,500,000 and processing costs 3,000,000 yield 69,200,000 in profits. The piece notes Britain’s policy to widen this base and remove duties to monopolize markets before 1846, highlighting merchant gains from cotton, linen, and iron.
