1t is not practicable to ascertain the amount of
revenue, heretofore produced, by each VI H.; class
es of goods specified in the last table but il -
sufficiently known, that some of them produced
little. while the product of others was propor-
tionably great. Taking the whole, however, to-
gether it is estimated that the proposed increase
fduty isequal TO 100 per ct upon the aggregate
amount OF the former adj valorcm dutes.-But the
effects to be eXpeeted from the increased duties
on WOODEN and cotton goods from the diIninution
of the alien duties under treaties or acts of Con-
gress, and from other considerations involved in
the new system, will not permit higher este
mate of the aggregate product of the increased
rates of the adj valorem duties, tlan the rate Of
rs or 80 per ceat. upon the former product.
Assuming, then, an advance of 80 per cent. up
on 100000 dollars 1.-THE aggregate product of
the duties ad valorem as above stately the sum
will be g $4,000
And adding to this sum, the amount
produced as above stated, by the
increase of the specific duties 100000
There Will be produced to complete
the amount Of additional revenue
required, q sum of g 100000
