FRANCE.

THE COMMERCIAL Relations BETWEEN FRANCE
AND THE UNITED STATES.
PARIS, July 23.-In the Corps Lagisatif yesterday.
while revenue bill was under consideration, prop
Ositon was made by way of amendment to the bill TO
restore the duties which were formerly imposed on
all American resnous products imported into France.
The proposition gave rise to a lively debate. 1t was
supported the ground that the restoration Of the
duties on imports from America was justified by tho
excessively high tariff now imposed by the United
States on articles of French production. The meas
ure however was strongly opposed by the free
trade members of the Chamber. NJ. Ozenne, member
of the Council of State and Director of Foreign
Commerce, explained the views of the Government.
He said they had closely watched the changes which
had been made from time to time in the tariff laws
of the United States and they greatly lamented that
such heavy burdens had been imposed upon French
productions. But they were not disposed TO adopt
a system of retaliation which could only result in in
jury to the commercial interests of both countries.
After further debate the amendment was rejected.
