PORT OF h YORK;

we understand, that the amount Of Duties Maid dur
ing the week before the last at the Port of N. York ex-
ceeded hall a million Of Dolars.-It is supposed that
that port will yield during the present year 8 or 4 mill
lions more than it did during the last year.-The New
4 ork Courier Il Enquirer OF the 10th instant, extends
an allusion TO the duties into the following general view
OF the country at large:
"POrt Of NetD York.-The Commercial prosperity
oil this Port continues increasing. The amount of du-
ties secured at the Custom House In the month of Janu-
In $6OO,O00 more than the amount secured ia January
the preceding year. From the first of January of the
present year until the LIST OF May, nearly eight millions
OF dollars have been secured, and the bond and cash
duties OF last week amount to 1922, 900. We have rea-
son to feel proud at this prosperous aspect of our Com
merce in this Port, as it enables us with other collecting
districts, to swell the surplus after laying aside the an.
nual sinking fund for the payment of the National debt
the entire expenses of Government, and appropria-
tons by Congress beyond f6e millions of the Treasury
esumate oil the current year. Our country was never
more prosperous; manufactures have no reason 10 COM
plan, the importer is satisfied with his share of profits.
our agricultural products find a ready sale-new ports
are open to us-new markets present a field for enter
prize. There is nothing to mar this prospect of nation
al prosperity but our own divisions and dissatisfactions-
the dissatisfaction Of the outs against the inns and the
restless desire for change"
but there are other and Just causes Of serious dissa.
usiaction. For instance, that "bill Of Nominations. !"
the Tarif-which itself mars the public prosperity bv
interfering with the most profitable pursuits of indiyidu-
ais-and depressing one portion Of the country, and Sc
veTal classes OF citizens, for the benefit ofa favored Sec
ton and class. Ii is a reproach to the nation and the
age-and no efforts should be spared to remove il.
