have not made the average, but it exhibits a de-
cline in the prices of the necessary articles of agr
cultural utility, of over thirty per cent in three
years. Now, sir, figures can't lie, it is sad,. and if
they do do not, have proved incontestaby what
have ndertaken-namely, to show that the eff
feet of the tariff of lS42 has been to reduce prices
But am not yet done with these calculations; they
subserve an admirable purpose by way of illus
tration. | shall use them little further, and next
remark by the way, that mine all relate to iron,
being subject with which | am some little ac-
quainted, as it much concerns my people and the
State at large. IL has been argued that the duty
is always added to the price Of the protected fabric;
and this is the great ground of complaint against
the tarIfi-the vice of the system. Let US try it
on few articles of iron-ware. | have quoted the
price of in 1876 at SO and $40 SO per dozen,
say $40 is the prce the duty on the dozen at this
price under existing laws is 80; now deduct this
from $40, the selling prIce, and if il has been
added profit; deduct 50, the duty, and the price
Of manufacturing would be but 81 per dozen n
fraction 6fty-oight cents per axe. Why, sir,
the iron and steel and coal, with the interest on
Investment at six per cent, and would come to more
than this without cent for lanor! Certainly the
duty is not included in this item. Take scylhes
at 80 per dozen; the duty is 81 10; this taken out
would reduce the manufacture of dozen scythos
to So 30. Does anybody believe the duty forms
any part of this prices Sckles, price 50 per DOZEN
duty ninety cents; price Of manufacture of dozen
