most ancient and the most important ally of France
beyond the seas the United Slates) is about To cause
ny an alteration in her tariffs serious confusion in
her commercial relations According to the Custom
house returns, France exports to the United States
produce TO the amount of 10000 OOf, Of which So
100000 is composed Of silk IL OOO 900 Of wines and
brandes, 10000 000f Of csmbrcs and 25 600 0OOf Of

Free and the remainder only subjected 10 duty
varying from TO Is psr cent According to the
change at present contemplated by the Government Of
tie United States two thirds of tho French exports
will be subjected to imposition Of duty which will
press the more heavily the exporter as the articles
are rather matters Of luxury than of absolute necessi-
ty. The Debats considers that "the United States
Is about 10 enter upon an erroneous course nasmuch
as the prosperity and commercial credit of a country
does not depend upon the amount Of her customs !"
and quotes the example of the Brazils which in 1889
increased It's amount OF customs, but seriously injured
its commercial prosperity. "The United States oup hit

hold herself prepared TO establish system of com
mercia freedom with every nation disposed to unite

that France by taking off American bottoms the dues
payable by all other foreign vessels has surrendered
to her the transatlantic carrying trade in considera
ton Of French produce being admitted into her ports

advantages, would be compelled to retala,e France
contributes IN no small degree 10 the commercial pros
peny OF the United States. Her annual f;,reon
trade amounts in value 10 400 million of francs of

ing upon the representatives Of French interests to
protest energetcaly against plan, which were il
adopted, would derange the entire economy of the
treaties IN force between France and America and
cause her commercial policy, hitherto liberal and en-
hghened, TO take retIograde direction.
