The two totals marked * do not quite agree with the items ; but, as it is, impossible, without the originals, to discover where the error lies, and as the difference is not at all material the figures have been left as they appear in the work that contains the table, whence this has been extracted. See Précis des Evènemens, tome xii., p. 304.
