The difference in the tonnage of 1855 compared with the tonnage of 1856, of 340,348 59, arises from corrections made by striking from the balance of outstanding tonnage such vessels as have been lost, sold to foreigners, and condemned in previous years, not heretofore reported to this office by the collectors, viz:

In the registered tonnage..

In the enrolled tonnage...

In the licensed tonnage..

From which deduct the amount of the tonnage of registered and enrolled vessels built this year over and above the tonnage of vessels lost, sold to foreigners, and condemned during the year..
