THE NEW TARIEE.

"A Washington correspondent of the New
York Times has furnished running abstract
of the new Tariff Bill just passed by Con-
gress. 1t is the result of a compromise Of
conflicting views on the subject, and nassed
by vote of 80 to in the Senate, and I24 to
II IN the House of Representatives II oocs
INTO full effect on the lst July next, and the
new rates Of duties to apply to all goods i'm
ported, but warehoused, in the meantime. as
though the same had been imported after the
3Oth June. The immediate practical results
aside from the main purpose to reduce the
present redundant customs revenue about
Sl4,OOO,OO0 per annum on the current scale
OF importations, will be to throw large Dor
ton OF the highly dutiable goods now ON the
way from foreign States into public store, to
await the operation Of the new bill and 10
postpone considerable share of the usual
lmpertations ordered for May and June until
alter the lst July. The importations will no
doubt be heavy for several winters. and the
very serious apprehension is that the reduc-
ton IN some of the schedules of the act &C
1876 may, while curtailing the revenue. afford
undue encouragement to an excessive scale Of
Importation. The general arrangement Of
the modification of the schedules is thus:

eussien, the report Of the Committee was adopted,
with some slight amendments. 1t Is proposed TO o.
'ablsb a library which shall be open to clerks, ap-
preDtces students and jourbeypen mechanics on the
payment Of 81 initiation fee and so csnts quartsry
dues. Merchants are to be admitted on payment OF

on payment Of 600. These rates were deemed BY
some such ss To make !. too exclusive and IL was con-
tended that IL should be open aud free to all and for
that reason the rates sbould be fixed at uinimum
price, 60 that all might avail themselves of It. The
