REFINING OF SUGAR IN BOND.---The Commis••
sioners of Customs have received a letter from the Secre-
tary to the Treasury, stating that, with reference to th ss
subject of the admission of bastard sugar into the col co-
n i es, he is commanded by their Lordships to acquaint the
Board, that they do not consider the duty of 10 per o,tent.,
ad valorem, to which by the 9th clause of the Act of sth
and 6th Vic., cap. 49, foreign sugar refined in .bond in
the United Kingdom is specifically made liable, upon im-
portation into any of the British possessions ;An America,
or into the Mauritius, to be applicable to I.,astiu.d sugar
produced in the process of that refisitari ; and that it
also appears to them, that inasmuch. as that these
bastard sugars are the result of a man .tifanturing pro-
cess in the United Kingdom, they cannot; be liable to the
ad valorem duty of four per cent. attar
ißaing under the
seventh clause of the said Act to good;, wares, and mer-
chandise not enumerated in the table, and " not being
the growth, production, or manufectum of the United
Kingdom," or of British possessions ; stnd that he was
directed further to state that under these circumstance&
their Lordships were pleased to desire that the Board;
would give the necessary instructions to the officers of
their department for the clearance fvom. this counts-3rr
and the admission in the British possessif.ms in Amertts4
or the Mauritius, of the bastard sugars in question, as
