THE TAX ON MATcHEs.-The New York Eve. ming Post, discussing the tax law. says tla, some of the amendments adopted at the las; session of Congress, exhibit the folly of nasty legislation. It instances as one example, the section regulating the tax on friction matches, the peculiar character of which it exhibits thus {:
 "Thoss {matches) made in this country are taxed, by stamps. over two hundred per cent. on the cost of manufacture. But at the same session tariff act had been passed imposing a duty, quite nominal in comparison, on foreign matches. Now, Mir. Stev, ns' act expressly provides, that (section l69) when any imported articles requiring stamps shall be sold ln the original and uobroken package iu which they were packed by the manufacturer, no penalty whatever shall be incurred by selling them without stamps! Of course, manufacturers in Canada ant Europe have only to pack their goods in ons or few boxes, for family use aud they nave the tax. Match factories were at once removed into Canlta. and fortunes have been made il the five lnonths' recess o.
