The Railway Mania and artificial excitement of 1843 and 1844 brought down these numbers to _one half_--they were 57,212 and 70,686 in these two years successively. But the Currency Laws of 1844 and 1845, and Free Trade of 1846, soon more than _quadrupled_ these numbers; and they have _never since receded_, but, on the contrary, rapidly increased ever since. The numbers were:-- Currency Acts, 1845, 93,501 Free Trade, 1846, 129,851 Irish Famine, 1847, 258,270 Free Trade, 1848, 248,089 Free Trade, 1849, 299,498
