DOUBLE DUTIES,

UVU DIE Do lbs.
From paragraphs which we have seen in some OF
the papers it will appear that singular misappre-
hension prevails in regard to the recommendation
Of the Secretary of the Treasury respecting the
double duties on imports, viz that he proposes tina,
in June next the import duties shall return to the
rate which existed prior to the war. He proposes
1t is true, that they shall be extended from Februa-
ry (when they would end of course) until June (;
because by that time it is supposed they may be
substituted by the new Tariff ofduties now prepar-
ing at the Treasury, by the direction of congress.
The mercantile gentlemen who have written ON
The subject in the newspapers will therefore per
ceve, that the day mentioned is not too early for
the di continuapce of the double duties, provided
Congress ia the mean time pass upon the tariff since
it is proposed to substitute specific duties for then
not less productive in amount, but more equitable
in their operation, and better suited to the present
interests of the country.

Twill take them ages TO return.
Wild beasts, their pleasure will unfold,
And concerts in the forest hold
Such strains echoing will ascend,
As will the azure concave rend.
SO those who dwell beneath the wave,
viii gather round old Neptune's cave,
To keep day ofjublee,
And raise riot in the sea.
Then will those mountains fam'd in story,
lllumin'd with our future glory,
With joy excessive quit their sockets,
And soaring burst and spread like rockets.
The sportiye hills will JOY declare,
And dance cotllions in the air;
While all the isles in Casco bay,
Will also join the roundelay.
The ieopiag stones, as is related,
This pleasure have anticipated
And introduced Olympic games,
in honor Of those worthy names,
Who, relishing such dainty dishes,
Are scrabblng hard for ioapes and fishes.
Pine trees, for public good nclin'd,
VIII leave their roots and tops behind,
And t'ward the upper world repair,
To build castle in the air;
That our wise men, in their new station,
May have aplace for legislation;
As did king Solomon OF old,
Who made temple gilt with gold.
