We are sure that our contemporary, so far from exaggera-
ting, (with the exception of the article of coffee, in dealing
with which he has overlooked the fact that the duty of 15d.
upon foreign has been, in practice, reduced to 10d. or is.)
has understated the advantages which will result from
the proposed alterations in the Tariff, for the consumption of
articles is estimated at a lower scale, and the rate of reduction
at a lower rate, than would have been perfectly justifiable.
But as the object is to convince by undeniable facts, perhaps
the course he has adopted is the preferable one.

By the above statement will be seen that, taking the
aggregate returns from the counties, without reference to
country, there is a majority of 104 in favour of the tax; and
from the cities, boroughs, and universities (omitting the
boroughs of Ireland, which will be only very partially affected
by the tax), a majority of 4 in favour of the government
proposition.
