By tho following sketch of,he proceedings of the

seen that The New American Tariff is subject OF
serious consideraii N in Great Britain.

had been lately passed in the United States, de,r-

tod greatly TO njure and impede tho trade and man

was entered into br four years, which was not in

Grst Of those ecprocity treaties that had been so
much abused. The simple principle was this -
That all articles the growth. produce, aud manu-
facturs Of either country, should be received in ell

like articles the growth, produce manufacture OF
my other country and further, that there should
be no discriminating duties in relerence 10 the ma

IL was renewed. At this IerioJ, when we were ex-
poJing the doctrine of prohibition il was adopted
hv the Americans with reference to the great staple
manufactures OF Eng land. Aboul n" same time The
Convention was violated by the Cnned States, in
posing additional duty on iron rolled instead Of
beaten into plates, which was increase OCCASION
ed merely by the improvement, in the mode OF manu-
facture. This country demonstrated, but without
effect though the renewal OF the convention the
principle conceded, and it was also agreed that
tho treaty should lac dts olycd ehcr party giving

Mr. Hume said nothing ranked more IN the

1t was by the influence OF those States which grew
corn, that this unwise and mpote Tariff had been
passed.
Mr.. Peel said, il was mistake to suppose the
Tariff was a retaliatory measure, for in the very
year that il was introduced wc had relaxed in our
regulations respecting American corn. lie had no
