Tae proposition Of the Secretary Of the Treasury
70 levy an impOst Of FIVE cents per pound upon cof
fee will probably be adopted BY Congress, and, as
war measure, will doubtless be cheerfuly sus-
Alned by the American people. All patriotic eid-
zens feel that 1t is sacred duty to support the Gov
ernment IN this trying hour, and to submit TO any
saerlhces that may be necessary to maintain the IN
tegrlty OF the Union. Among the most available
sources OF revenue, which are resOrted to only in
cases al emergency IN cur country, duties on tea
and coffee hold prominent rank on account Of the
large sum they will yield, and the effect they may
exercise upon the consumption Of the nation and the
culinary arrangements of many families
The people of the United Stltes habitualIy con-
sumo more coffee than the inaoitants of any osheP
country. Indeed they than onefOurth of the
whole production Of the world. After u.s. as coffee
drinkers, rank the Germans, who import almost as
much as we do The people Of Holland and Bel
gum also drink immense Quantities Of it. The
consumption Of Great Britain, a few years ago was
but about One~fth as much as that Of this country
From 1850 to 1860, our imoOrtations in 70 one
year fell short Of l52 000OOO pounds and in one
year (lS55) they exceeded 23S O0O, 900 pounds The
imports during 1860 we're lS5, ,-T9 6Sg pounds, and
the consumption during the same Jeriod was ITT-
$50 623 pounds. The demand has of late wears
steadily increased more rapidly than the supply,
and there has, consequently been decided increase
in its price. which had recently the effect of check

It Is probable that on account Of the blockade Of
Southern ports, by which the supplies Of the re-
bellious districts will be almost entirely cut off and
the imposition Of new duty, well IS the gener-
al arrangement Of business, the imports into the
United States during the coming year win fall short
Of those Of preceding years and it would be graft
flying If this diminished consumption should result
in reduction Of its price, that virtually the cof>
