GERMAN LEGISLATION. LINN ediately af-
ter Easter, the German Zollverein Parlia-
ment is to be convened. 1t will be recollect-
ed that last year they We're required 10 vote
an import duty at half dollar per centner
on petroleum, whic they refused to do,
and the bill was thrown out. 1t has traus-
pired that this year it is not the intention
Of the Zollverein Council to repeat the
proposition; and it is also added that there
is no reason 10 introduce protective duty,
as the mineral olls produced and refined in
the Zo!lverein are pow thoroughly capable
Of competing successfully with auy Ameri-
can petroleum imported from abroad. 1t is
proposed to reduce the duty on many arti-
cles OF general consumption, but that on
imported c.fee it is considered expedient 10
increase.
