TINT some OF them produced lutte, while
the product of other S WIS, proportionablv,

ther, 1t IS estimated, that the proposed in
crease of duty is equal to 100 per cent. up
on the aggregate amount of the former adj

pected from the increased duties on wool

of the alien duties, under treaties or acts
of Congress, and from other considerations
involved in the new system, Will not per-
