so far | concerned, il we agree TO The adoption
OF private warehouses according TO the provisions OF
this BILL cannot foresee very clearly that those private
warehouses be adopted al less expense than the sys
tenn OF public warehouses for we have leases of
the public warehouses, and they will then become
vacated but sun would not object to the system, If
properly secured and properly protected against the OF
private warehouses Tor private purposes The senator
shen gets The TWO great points for which he aims by the
concession which propose to him to makein the first
place lhe adoption OF system OF private warehouses IN
tue next place The Time for accumualng foreign goods Tor
exploration These are the two main points upon which
ne bases ms argument and these points concede to him
But ms bill extends the time for ping up these goods to
ihree years, to which object. wish 10 have that time
kept 10 where il is limited, and that is the effect of
the amendment which propose.
Now, su, should wish TO go much more fully into

mttee on the Judiciary which if adopted will require the

Mr. HUNTER. Suppose we go on with this bill

with 1t now.
The motion 10 postpone accordingly withdrawn.
Mr. HUNTER, / will make no objection to The amend
ment proposed by the senator from Massachusetts. Mr.
DAvIs,] giving notice. however that will bring up this
question at the next session, ii am here.
The question being then taken upon Mr. DAvIs's
amendment, TO add provso to the fourth section as
above stated. il was agreed to.
Mr.. MILLER. | will now move the amendment which
indicated vest rday, 10 insert after the word "mer
chandise" in the fourth section, where 1t reads
'hat all goods, wares, and merchandise, etc. the words
"except iron in bars, blooms, bolts, loops pigs, rolls
rods slabs, and castings"
Mr. HUNTER. | hope the honorable senator from
New Jersey [Mr MlLLER] will offer that amend
the honorable senator from Massachusetts, Mr. DAVIS
Mr. MILLER, | will state in few words my rea-
son Tor Offering this amendment, do not want placed
in the depot OF New York imported iron for expectation
The assigned by Mr. Walker, in the report from
which the honorable senator from Virginia has Just read
extract Tor these bonded warehouses, is that may
"also be enabled to obtain without delay in ports
assorted cagoes OF our own products and abrcs well
as hose OF all other countries OF every quality character
and price," Now the product oiron II anything is,
OF the great products Of this country II is here. and
wish 10 encourage lis manua here not only for the
consumption Of this country, but for the supply Of foreign
markets; and we able 10 furnish that supply. Ii il
not necessary, therefore, in order TO give the oil
obtaining assorted cagoes 10 import at any time iron from
abroad and place II 10 our warehouses IN CONNER
cia metropolis For this reason think the articles have
named IN my amendment ought TO be included in this
ball. do not wish TO Interfere with at all, but
! think we ought 10 give some encouragement TO our
home manufactures.
Mr.. HAMLlN II TO that the discussion Of
this amendmen, will open the whole tariff question AT
ter having adopted The amendment of the senator from
Massachusetts, think we ought TO stop there was
Tor the bill as II stood originally, but | willing to
take tue amendment OF the senator from Massachusetts
compromise In regard 10 this article OF iron, why
sir, the bill stands amended, only be put
IN these warehouses for twelve months. II you to
except this article OF iron you will find that there
other articles this country the productions of this
try that enter into consumption, which may just
sonaby be excepted. The pork community is vastly
interested 10 their production than they in the srti
Gle of iron and If this article is excluded from the opera
lions OF the tariff in this respect you must exclude other
articles Tor the IL seems to me that this
amendment will open the whole tariff question, and
hope it will not be adopted.
Mr.. MILLER. The honorable senator from Maine, |
[Mr HAmLNl mistaken If he supposes That the effect
of my amendment is TO exclude iron from the operations
of the tariff
Mr. HAMLIN. do not suppose it will be entirely
excluded
Mr. MILLER The only operation of nv amendment
