Hay---The Farmers OF Maine.

The Committee Of Ways and Means, rs
the public are aware, reported to the House
during It's las, session, u resolution. propo-
sing reciprocal free trade in hay aud hops
with the British North American Provinces.
From the party composition Of the Com
mitteo. the measure Was regarded as an adj
ministration movement, aud 50 ii unqucs-
,ionably was.
Towards the Close Of the session, Mr.. j..
Clancy Jones. tho Chairman Of the COM
mitieO aud the special representatives OF the
President. moved u suspension Of the rules
for the purpose OF considering the resolution
and putting i, on its passage. The motion
was lost-yeAs Il /, not two thirds Of quo
rum, and the noes were not counted. The
matter was not pressed further a, that time
Mr.. Jones being probably satisfied that al.
though he had majority for the measure,
no could not. at that late period OF the
session, and with the pressure Of other bus
insss, command the necessary two.thiris TO
get it NJ.
It i, scarcely necessary to observe tina. the
idea Of reciprocal trade with tho British
North American Provinces, in hay and hops
!. as absurd as the $50 enllod) reciprocal
trade with the same provinces in lumber.
|, is reciprocal, because there is no recipro-
city abJu, i,-IoaN non hlc,hdo. To es-
tablish with tho British Provinces reeip-
rocal trade in hay aud hops, is simply to
admit into our country. duty free. the hay
aud hops Of Provincial growth. Tha, is all
tboro is Of 1t.
Now, this ia very well for those who like
it, and for those who may DO benefited by
IL.
We have nothing at present TO cay about
hops but We have something to say about
hay, that being the Leading agricultural
proiuc. Of the State (MainO) OF which we
are citizen.

tho invitation extended to him by the Bow
