Ths Rsvenue-Ths Hes,uxees a the 0svesn'
mens, and shs Operation % the New Tariff.
The ad valorem tariff Of 1916 works admira'
bly,. The revenue from customs for the past
seven months, exceeds that OF the corresponding
period, under the tariff of 1912, in the previous
year, nearly one and half millions OF dollars.
This increase has been realised in the face OF
large importation of specie, and of course d.
minished importation Of merchandise, to what
there would have been had there been no ship
ments of specie from the other side Under
| other circumstances the twenty-five millions OF
dollars received in specie, within the past SIX
montbs wsuld have been received in merchan-
d;se and the revenue from customs, In that
| event would have been several millions larger.
The increase upon the receipts of last year
would have been from three to five millions Of
dollars, instead of one and half, for the seven
months. The importations of merchandise since
the new tariff went into operation, have been
less than estimated, while the expectations have
paid for in foreign merchandise, we should have
had more favorable report to make relative to
the revenue, than that given above.
The prospect now is, that our fall trade will
be unusually large; and our fall importation will,
without doubt, also be very large. The expor-
tatlon of specie from the other side has nearly
ceased, and the probability is that the value of
our imports of merchandise will correspond
more with the value of merchandise exported,
than they have for some time past.
In the event Of the harvesls in Europe being
.ar e as anticipated, and those of this country
being larger than last years, there will be amuch
greater surplus than we have ever had yet, and
prices will touch a low point. The surplus
in this country will, without doubt, be inn
mense, and we have no doubt large shipments of
breadstuffs will be made to Europe on specula-
ton, on home account. Should this lie carried
to any extent, of which there is every proba-
bility, it viii give great impetus to our import
trade, and tend to swell the revenue from GUS
toms. All this will aid and comfort the Score
tary of the Treasury, and add to our resources
for prosecuting the Mexican war, If it should
not before that be closed.
The receipts into the treasury from the tariff
Of duties placed upon imports into Hexico, is a
source of income not calculated upon when the
present tariff of the United States was planned
and perfected, and the revenue from that quarter
will make up part of the deficiency caused by
the larqe Importation of specie. There is one
thing pretty conclusively settled in relation TO
the tariff of 1885, and that is its successful epe-
ration, which places it beyond any material alte
ration or modification Whatever may be the
political complexion of the lower house of Con-
gress, this department of our commercial system
is beyond their control. This is a very imI or
tai. matter, as permanency is more to be desired
in this than in anything else come cted with COM
mercial affairs, which the government have the
