A similar comparison of the number of ordinary contributors shows a decrease of 12 at 5 per cent., 2 at <> per cent., 1 at 7 per cent., 2 at 8 per cent., and 2 at 9 per cent. ; while there was an increase of 115 ai 5 per cent., 19 at 6 per cent., 6 at 7 per cent., 10 at 8 per cent., 3 at 9 per cent., and 4 at 10 per cent. : a total net increase of I.
