THE TARIFF. Gen. Bayley, Of Va. who
was Chairman Of lie ConmiIee of Ways
and Means, writes to the Richmond Euquir-
er, that the Appraisentcnt law of last session
has, in his opinion, been misundeI 3D.
lie says:
But may say, that il makes no change
whatever in the tariff Of 1916, as construed
and administered, FROM the period of its en-
acimenI down to the lsle decision OF the Su.
preme Court, by Mr.. Polk 5, Gen. Tay,or's,
aud the present all .,inisratlon. AS you
correctly remark in the first paragraph OF
your article, ''the bill ratifes and enacis The
treasury circulars, and re-establishes'' the tar
iff of 1916, as understood by lis trainers.
1t meets the difficulty created by the deci-
sion of The Supreme Court, which puts
construction upon Tie tariff of 1916 IN con-
hct with the construction which has pre-
vailed al the treasury. Ii does that, and it
does no more, except 10 authorize the ap-
pontment of appraisers at large. The np-
pointment OF them was necessary to produce
thai uniformity in the duties levied in the
several ports, which is required in the con-
sIiiutIon. Mr.. Walker earnestly recon-
mended the bill in all of its provisions. 1t
was necessary 10 continue the tariff Of 46,
which has been So eminently successful, as
lie had construed and administered it.
