equal in amount to the duty paid OA the salt, and no
more, to be ascertained under such regulatiovs as
may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury.
Sec. 6. And be it further enacted, That all goods,
wares and merchandise imported alter the passage of
this Act, and which may be in the public stores on the
second day of December next, shall be subject to no
other duty upon the entry thereof than if the same were

Sec. 7. And be it further enacted, That the twelfth
section of the Act entitled "An Act to provide re-
venue from imports, and to change and modify existing

Hope or Cape Horn may remain in the public stores for
the space of one year, instead of the term of sixty days

lawful for the owner, consignee or agent of imports
which have been actually purchased, on entry of the
same, to make such addition in the entry to the cost
or value given in the invoice, as in his opinion may
raise the same to the true market value of such im-
ports in the principal markets of the country whence
the importation shall have been made, or in which
the goods imported shall have been originally manu-
factured or produced, as the case may be ; and to add
thereto all costs and charges which, under existing laws,
would form part of the true value at the port where the
same may be entered, upon which the duties should
he assessed. And it shall be the duty of the col-
lector, within whose district the same may be im-
ported or entered, to cause the dutiable value of
such imports to be appraised, estimated, and ascertained
in accordance with the provisions of existing laws ;
and it' the appraised value thereof shall exceed by ten
per centum or more the value so declared in the entry,
then, in addition to the duties imposed by law on the
same, there shall be levied, collected, and paid, a duty of
twenty per centum ad valorem on such appraised value:
Provided, nevertheless, that under no such circumstances
