ADDENDA.




No. 1.—The 87th page of this work was printed before the peasantry of England disgraced themselves and their country by their riots and unparalleled destruction of property. The Editor most sincerely hopes that the future conduct of the people will remove the stigma they have brought upon themselves, and that long, very long it may be truly said that they "are peaceable," and that every man in England "may retire to his rest without fear" of open violence or secret fire.

No. 2.—The emigrant will be allowed a drawback upon many of the articles he takes out, upon which the Custom-house or Excise duties have been paid. For instance, upon raisins of the sun, 38s. per cwt.; upon figs, 19s. per cwt., and upon currants, 40s. per cwt. For other drawbacks, see "Nyren's Account of Duties and Drawbacks," price only 3s. 6d.
