To provide for the estimated deficit et the years 1825 and 1826, as well as to meet soy ips traordiaery demands upon Me Treasury. which taw foresees itelgeocies may require. it is believed to_ bs expedient that the revenue should be increased. Thin may be eenveniently effected by a judicious misled • , of all tariff ; whieb„mbil• it will not prove onerous to the consumer, w:11 simplify the labours os the *S eers of the revenue. At present, articles composed of wool. cotton. Aim and hemp, pay different rates of duty. Difficiorties frequently occur in detormittilig tit* duties to which such articles are subject. Tim pro vision in the tariff, that the duty epos artioler tom peseta various materials shall be regulated by deems terial of chief 'sista of which it is composed. Is pro ductive of frequent miner:ginned and mach *no: variance. It is, therefore, teepee...gully mibmitteu, 1 that all articles composed of wool, cotton, ilaX. Iraq: or silk, or of which any of these materials is a tempo neat part, be subject to a duty of 25 per cent, ad ye lerem. The duties upon glass and paper, upon iron and lead, and upon all articles composed of the two latter ma terials, may also be increased with a view to the aug mentation of the revenue. In all these cases, except ar ticles composed of silk, it is probable that the effect of the proposed argrnentation of duties, will gradeally leed so an ample supply of those articles from our domestic manufactories. It is, however, presamed, that the re venue will continue to be augmented by the proposed alterations in the tariff until the public debt shall have been redeemed ; after which the public 'eruditely, be time of peace, will he diminished to the event *Utile sinking fund, which is, at present, g 10,000,000. liat if, cons rat y to present anticipations, the proposed augmen tation of duties should. before the public debt be redeem ed, produce a diminution of the revenue arising (rout thelimpertation of thi--earticles a corresponding„if not a greater, augmentation may be confidently expected upon other articles imported into the United States, This supposition rests upon the two-fold conviction, that foreign articles, nearly equal to the value of the domes tic exports, will be Imported and consumed ; sad that the substirutioa of particular classes of domestic articles fqr those of foreign nations not only doeanot mere/only diminish the value of domestic importer bat useidlyltkiwiti to increase the value. The desks upon various other articles net UMW/ de gree ooneeeted alit our domestic isiasery, way.like wise, be increased with a view to the itegmeetattos of the public revenue.—lf the existing tariff shall, during the present session of Congress, be judiciously revised fur the purpose of augmenting tba revenue, it is confi dently believed that it will not only be amply sufficient to defray all the drmsuds upon the treasury at present authorised by law, but that there will remain an annual surplus, subject to such disposition, for the proino• tiou of the public wellore, as the wisdom of Congress may direct. Under the art of the 20th of April line, authorising the exchange of certain portions of the public debt for five per cent. stock, 556,7114,77 only have been exchang ed. The increased demand for capital, for the prosecu tion of commercial enter ices during the present year, and the rise in the rate of interest, consequent upon that demand, which were not anticipated at the time that the measure was proposed, have prevented its execution. i Existing circumstances do noteauthorise the conclusion, that a measure of this nature will be more Successful , du ring the next year. If the price of the public debt, id 1825, should be as high as it is at present, any portion of it redeemable at the pleasure of the government, which should be unre.leemed is that and subsequent , years, after the appiicalion of the sinking fund, to Clot object, may be advantageously exchanged for stock re , deemable at such periods as to g ive full operation to the sin king funds , ibis may be e ffected, either directly by [ an exchange of stock, or indirectly by authorising a.Oh n 1 to the amount of stock annually redeemable - b.) a , a 1 , the:amonut of the sinking fund applicable to Lliat object.

A few days ago, after the commencement of the pre sent frost, a pie, who bad till then been kept a clo s e prisoner to his sty, was let out fur the purpose of being cleaned, and his bed replenished. On opening the sty door he anticipated the purpose of his liberation by running to the stable, from which he carried,one byonr, two Aimee, of straw to his sty, bolding them in his mouth by the band. The straw being intended for an other purpose, he was nut allowed to retain it, and it was carried hack to the stable; but Porctts seizing an other opportunity, regained them to the amazement of several petsons who were pleased to Observe the extra ordinary instinct of thit wonderful l'ig.—(Stockport Avd.)
