REVISED TARIFF.

The Secretary of the Treasury sent into the
House of Representatives on Monday, Lett
ter prepared in compliance with a resolution
of that body, on the subject cf a Tariff; to-
gether with bill to provide revenue from
imports, and for other purposes. The Bill is
very long. We shall publish its most impor-
tant provisions hereafter. Below will be found
an analysis of the letter.
The Department defers the expression of
any opinion on the expedency of a tax on auc-
ton sales of foreign goods, for want of more
full information on the subject.
1t is opposed 10 the system Of "home valua.
tion," and adheres to the ad rdlorem system.
The primary object of the bill is to provide
a revenue for the government; secondary,
though extremely important object has been
to afford some relief and encouragement to the
laboring classes and the mechanical trades Of
the country. whose interests are now anguish
ing under a severe, and in many instances,
ruinous depression. While it is conceded
that the primary object of duties on imports
is the raising the revenue, it is believed thata
proper discrimination among the articles made
dutiablc, as well as in the amount Of duties,
may be rightfully demanded by the interests
referred to. and is favorable to the interests OF
all.
The following estimate ofexpenditures of
the years 1912, 1913, and 1874, exhibits the
measure of income necessary to be raised du-
ring the same period:
For the year 1s42.
