recent debate in the British House of Com.
mons on the paper tax elected some curi'us facts.
This duty at present is Id. per pound with an ad-
dition Of FIVE per cent ad valorem. II produced in
the yesr 1867 the amount of fl,2i4, 900, or
about sc 0O0,oo0 The duty was originally in
posed in the reign of Queen Anne, just after the
newspapers began TO be party organs. 1t was in
act avowedy intended, along with the newspaper
stamp tax and the advertisement tax, imposed at
the same time, to operate as Encouragement to
he publication of newspapers. And such 10 still
its operation, and that TO q very serious extent
Like so many other British taxes, il falls with pecu
lar weight upon the class least able to bear il.
The amount Of the duty is large just in proportion

and extensively circulated. Thus q novel in three
volumes or history in the usual octave style, pays
only one per cent on the price, while upon newsps-
pers, school books and cheap publications generally
the duty amounts 10 thirty per cert In the course

Of the debate letter WAS produced from tee

the paper tax paid b. that tournA W"
calculated at f29 per dsy. II the daV

be printed on be,ter psPer, but large sddi-
tiorsl sun might be expended IN improving It's lite
rary contents. A Mr. Salisbury stated that DUNG
eight yesrs that he had been editor Of The Art
Journal that publication had paid El,2OO year
paper duty bat not a penny Of dividend. The
profit had all been swallowed up BY the tax. The
duty pressed with extreme ,e7erity upon school
books ard It's peal was urged essential means
of promoting popular education. Tie duty is re-
mitted on paper u,ed in the printing Of Rsls' sod
PRAYER books, but this is small amount, onlJ

laid BY The London Journal or Chambers Journal.

manufacturers Of paper were subjected By the reg
ulaions for its collection. If there were no excise

The returns Of the paper tai show the rapid IN

present amount, produced 1891, 600 In 1887 it
amounted to f555,OO The duty was then re-
duced to its present amount. The consumption
rapidly increased. The price, however, WAS re-
duced in a still greater proportion, being IN fact
now not III ore than half what it WAS in 1887.
Iu 1852, the production Of paper in Crest Britain
amounted to IL 900, 900 ib. AT that time the
price Of the raw material WAS fifteen shilings the
