Our private advices from Washington
reach to January IA. At that date, Gen
eral McCook had not arrived, though he
was expected in the course of the ensuing
week.
The Eastern Refneries were pressing
the same measure which they put forward
last year. On the 9Th of January, the
Refneries of New York and Philadelphia
presented the following petition:
The petition of the undersigned sugar ref
ners respectfully represents
That the important interest in which they
are engaged, is now, and has been for the past
three years, suffering from the unjust discrin-
nation now given foreign and refined sugars
over those made in this country.
By tho workings Of the present tariff on gu
gars, the foreign refner can send his clarified
and refined products to this country at the
duty per pound that we are required to pay
for the raw material of our manufactures !;
thus, in effect, paying one-hslf % cent gold
per pound less upon his products, than we
pay on the raw sugar used in producing like
quantity and quality which unjust diserimi-
nation has enabled refners in Cuba, Porto
Rico, Demarara, and other sugar producing
countries, to flood us with their refined goods,
thus Gripping our industry, and tending rap
idly to drive the whole business into the hands
Of foreigners (See appended memorial to
substantiate this statement.)
The undersigned do not ask protection at
your hands, but such just equalization Of dn-
ties, that the foreigner may not Be enabled to
send his refined sugars into our markets It 3
iess duty than our own refined is required to
pay
To this end, we ask for new classification
of sugars for tariff purposes, made to conform
to existing commercial classifcations, in which,
the sugars complained of under the names Of
Clarified, Demararas. and Centrifugals, are
regularly quoted in every price list, with val
