The Cost Of a Pound Of Tea.

1t is instructive and sometimes profit
able, as well as curious, to examine
the way in which the cost of a COM
modify is piled up between producer
and consumer by freights, handling
duties, exchange, and the commissions
and prof of middlemen. Tea, for ex-
ample, is sold by the grower in China
aud Japan at various prices, from fif-
teen to thirty cents a pound. With
freights added, il is said to cost when
laid down in any of our principal sea-
ports an average Of fifty cents i'll gold a
pound for superior brands of "chops."
Taking this as a starting point the adj
ditional charges before it reaches the
table of the consumer are said to accum-
mulatc as follows: Original cost of tea,
imported, so cents; discount Oh curren-
cy to pay for it, 90 cents; duty on gold
% cents; discount on currency to make
up the gold, Is cents profit ofimporter,
II cents; profit of jobber, l3 cents pro-
fit of retailer, say % cents. Total Sl.74.
OF this fifty-four cents are comprised in
three profits, thirty-five cents in ex.
change for gold, twenty-five cents in
duties, and teu'cents in contingencies; in
all one dollar and twenty-four cents, in
addition to the cost on board ship at
our wharves. Before the war the cost
would have been about as follows: Or
iginal cost, imported, 80 cents ten per
cent for contingencies, 5 cents profit OF
importer, 5 cents; profit Of jobber, g
cents profit to the retailer, Ii cents.
Total, 50 cents.

When q man in Office possesses the pow

formality. with fonr-fifths of the
whites disfranchised, and with the reg.
istration altogether in the hands OF
Brownlow and his men, what signifies

The words of the Times apply to our
own political affairs almost as forcibly
as they apply to those Of Tennessee.
BoREMAN's triumphs, like BRowNLow's,
only prove "the success with which he
has manipulated the registration of

can be considered only a sign of un-
scrupulous work." Says the New York

IDEAS" and boasts of the sympathy and
adht sion of n great part of the New

Deams over the election of such ribald
and blasphemous old reprobate as Par
son Brownlow. Judging the tree by
its fruits, reconstruction policy which
produces such governor as Brownlow
must DO truly glorious. 1t will be hard
to match Brownlow i'll the other ten
States; but the system may be relied on
to elevate to the highest office in each
