crease IN the price OF agricultural exports prove:
concGsIveiy decline in prices Of agricultural produce
consumed at home We do not deny that some articles
of agricultural labor have risen in price; but
tend that general tendency TO decline has existed
SINCE the tariff on the aygytga,e of agricultural pro-
duce This fact, of course, cannot in the face of STA
liscal evidence be denied. What then IS the cause
of this genera! decline in price, l. cannot be airibu

year, undergone any naeral change, but may be- sad
To have been reduced 10 neotly specie basis. What
taca s The cause' Is Il simply The fleet Of our PROFIT
bcTy arm Ii we do not purchase abroad, we can
not sell. Foreigners must cease 10 buy our wheat

THIS is The cause Of the iail in prices The price oil
those articles of which we have n surplus is regulated
by the demand in the foreign market; and TINT demand

countries, destroyed when To take what they

an B-Taat the low prices OF las, Spring paid the
manufacturers is evident, from the dividends and The
profits from their present monopoly easily be cal
culated from the above table.
1.-THE various descriptions Of domestic woollen have
risen full ttccaty pr cant the whole consumption.
The various descriptions of Hardware have risen at
least ten per cent. This is admitted by the Pfotec-
tionists. Although some few articles of Hardware
may have fallen price, yet there has been rise
on the whole consumption; and the Tribune chaen-
pes the Free prove that this rlsa has been
more than I'm per cent Saga. aud molisaes have al
90 risen in price since last Spring. Admitting that
Hardware, generally, has risen ten per cent, Wool
lens twenty per cent, Cottons average Of thirty
per CENT the question arises, what is the cause of
this rses il certainly cannot be huc,uating cur
rercy, for that has been uniform possible
under our mixed currency.
Zine result is, them that agricultural produce ge-
ncray decreased price, and that manufactured fab
RIGS generally have increased in price. Had The rise
or fall in price affected both species Of labor, we
might have attributed it to other than
Psoh,bi,ory Tariff But, the rise is confined to the
protected articles, and the fall to the unprotected az
rcullural produce, no other has been produc-
tive of this result And we hesitate not to predict,
that if the Tariff is not repealed the rise the
hand will continue 10 increase, and our agricultural
produce will sill further dmish in price, untl we
are entirely excluded from the foreign market when
prices VIII depend upon the will OF our manufaciu-
rers.'
There Is one remarkable Circumstance ABOUT TIC III
