LONDON :
TUESDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER 20, 1842.

The journals in the manufacturing districts
best informed as to our trade, such as the Leeds
mercury, describe the new tariff of the United
States as, calculated to inflict serious injury on
our woollen and cotton manufactures. •
The duty on woollens (says that journal) is raised
from 29 percent. to 40 per cent., and that on worsted
stuffs from 20 per cent. to 30 per cent., with the fur-
ther addition caused by including the commission in
the valuation of goods. We fear the increase of duty
Will eventually much diminish our exports of woollen
cloths and kerseymeres to • the United States, and it
• must act unfavourably on the trade in worsted stuffs;
and all other woollen and mixed goods.
".„The cotton trade will, however, be more seriously
affected than the woollen, though the duty does not
appear toile
• 11l ad so hih. Cottons are nominally subject to
• valorem duty 30 per cent, but there are
regulations fixing an arbitrary rbitrary valuation upon many
kinds of goods,
being any indication
prevent the nominal duty from
velvets, and ion of the real duty. Prints, mole-
skins,
—moleskins from 100
goods, all pay enormously
100 to 200 per cent. ad valorem.
On some prints of
the value of 4d. a yard, the duty
amounts to 9 cents, or 41d. a
of 100 per cent. yard—making upwards
That represents rather the ultimate than the
immediate effect, which is somewhat different.
For some months (says the Merzry) trade has been
paralyzed by the` uncertainty that over both the
fiscal system mid the financial stateuonfgAmerica ; and
would be felt
anything that rentoves that uncertainty
received in as a.relief. Many of the accounts re.
goodstlo the NI
Eng-
land, therefore, are highly favourable'
been
trade. Some considerable orders for
received, and an agreeable impulse will be fe;ltv:
merchants. But, on the other hand, we knowyn7r
c hants who have 'received letters by this mail Ifr'rm-
, well-informed correspondents in New York, regret.:
ting that woollen goods which they had ordered had
Fone out, and that it is too late to countermand them.
I'he abiding effect of the new tariff must be very un-
favourable to the commerce of this country.
We learn from the Liverpool Albion.that the
shipping interest at Liverpool is at present in a
state of great suffering, and full of complaint.
At the same time that journal gives this some-
what melancholy description of the American
trade of Liverpool :
The whole quantity of manufactured goods sent
from this port to the United States, by all the
shipping houses together, in a given period this year,
does not equal the quantity sent by a single first-rate
shippipg. house in a similar peitod,
ly, In this state of things, what P.ell • •ut one of pros-
w a are called tran-
sientps get no freight, while even the packet-ships
sin
get little or none. The large and splendid packet-
ship Roscius, which sailed on Thursday for New

York, had considerably under 103/.. of
