UJTWc publish this week, comparison f the
rates otduty imposed by the Tariffs Of ls12 and
1916, on certain arliclcs, aud invite thereto the
reador's attention. This table exhibits the fact,
that the late act raises the duties upon many ari-
cles Of luxury, and reduces them on many articles
Of general use. a thorough comparison of the de-
tails Of the acts OF az ard '4G is work Of difficult
ly, where the change is from specific to od yaoium
duties, ano'ho article is one of nucualing price,
or varied 'acs ofvaluc Upon the whole, the new
law matciS'y rclu2es duties from the rates Of the
old. although there is an increase upon numerous
articles as the statement shows. The Whig pa.
per OF this county, complained last week of this
OF table Of comparison, as deceptive and
of ITS publication as an attempt to deceive. We
confess that we are unable to perceive the Justice
of this accusation. How the mere exhibition Of
facts in relation to rates of duty under the two
avs Is deceptive, must c mude to appear before
i Is admitted. The statement does not profess +,
give ALL the details of the tariff; bat so far as il
5oesit is strictly and ncontestibly accurate,
While upon this subject we will say, that the
'nly attempt at deception in the publication of this
statement, which we have noticed, was in Wbr
newspaper we think the United States Gazette
The statement was published with the word "Iuy.
ires' at the top, and the words" Articles of
general use,' lower down carefully omitted This
vas obviously done in oldor to render less anna
en' the fact, that duties were increased upon lux.
i''eS' and lowered upon article. Of general use BY
he new act.
