FREAKS OF LEcIs!AyoS.s-bne Of the silliest
measures tna, nave been introduced In Con-
sress during the present session Is the Stevens
resolution increasing the tariff on imports fifty
per cent until July. II its object be revenue,
It will curtai instead Of increasing it; If it be
intended as sumptuary enactment to restrain
the importation Of foreign luxures, then Il is
Of too short duration to work any good. or
course no importing house will dream o. pay.
Ing fifty per cent increased duty on articles
which It can have at the existing tariff after the
expiration Of sixty days. Those who receive
fresh importations will simply bond them for
that period, while those who have just sent out
fresh orders will hasten to countermand them.
The effect will be to deprive the government Of
some twelve million dollars OF revenue, and
to give bonus Of fifty per cent to the owners
Of the stocks on hand. As 10 the measure
curtailng the importation OF foreign luxuries
or restraining the growing taste for extrava-
gance, the idea 10 simply absurd. Discrimi-
mating duties Of permanent character
might have that tendency; but IN arbitrary
and ill-considered measure Of this sort can
only have an opposite effect II there were no
other objection to IL, the fact that Il alters the
bases Of the contracts on which are founded
the mercantile transactions Of the present
season should be at once fatal to II. No gov
eminent has right thus to violate that cardi-
nal principle Of commercial law which insists
upon fair notice being given to the CONNER
cial community Of all such alterations. The
measure is one that could only originate with
man whose mind has become distorted by
fanaticism. That he should have succeeded 10
winning over majority Of his colleagues to
It's support is proof, not that the proposition
10 other than we describe II, but that they are

OLD ABE's LAST JoKs.-we do not know what
joke Old Abe made when he heard the news Of
The surrender Of Plymouth. In regard to the
Fort Pillow affair he made Bunsby speech, but
no joke. His last joke, Of which We have any
knowledge, occurred when Secretary Chase
was starting on his trip to New York. Old
Abe is like Cromwell, without his military &C.
MUS, and is very fond Of playing practical
jokes upon his associates. II Is said that after
Cromwell had signed the warrant for the exc
cution Of King Charles he turned round to one
Of his colleagues and smeared his face with the
ink. This he thought capital fun Old Abe's
jokes are Of about the same quality. when
Chase called upon him to say goodby, the Sec
Rotary OF the Treasury asked for some informa-
ton about the probable end Of the war, saying
that II would help him greatly in getting more
money in Wall street. "Do you want more
money!" asked Old Abe, and then quickly
added, "What has the printing machine gin
QUIT" This joke Is fully equal to Cromwsll's
