Among the variourrioutrzerititfuns to relieve the manufac-
turers, that of repealing the duty on printed cottons seems worthy
of the consideration of Ministers. It is ass operating upon, per-
haps, a hundred million yards of cotton goods ; yet, :trio' deducting
the expense of csllection, it is said nut to produce 300,0001. a' year

to the Revenue. Now the repeal of this duty would infuse such a
spirit in the trade as to set several thousand men to work inimed.-
ately, and, by decreasing the price, greatly increase the consump-
tion. Without wishing to canvass the policy of Parliament in put.
ling an end to Lotteries, which 'twat expire in a few weeks, vet. es
a voluntary impost, and producing, we are told, Four Hundred
Thousand a year to the Revenue, we think, if the question was put
to the people at large, nine.tenths of them would vote for the abo-
lition of the duty on printed cottons, and for the continuspce of
Lotteries in its stead.
