entirely upon regulations made without the
sanction Of the officer Here the sum Of
Of one cent per pound on cotton, charged
for Custom House fees, is not authorised By
law.

Of the New York custom house, in addition
to legal Internal Revenue export OF cents
per pound, paid on all cotton arriving from
the South. The parties SO charged, win be
entitled TO recover the same back, en- appli-
cation duly authenticated. a good deal Of
trouble, il appears, is also oceasioned be-
tween the New York merchants and eollec-
tor Draper, by the arbitrary regulation,
which compels every article Of msrehan
die from the sonth to be weighed, inspected
and carsed by custom house officials the
carriage is regarded as unnecessarily oppres-
sive being without the authority Of law
presenting the practical result Of imposing
New York tariff on goods from other
states. These regulations are loudly com
planned Of, from ali quarters, aud very ssri-
Gus suggestions are current as to the dispo-
sition made Of the vast sums realized from
these exaetions.
