Sugar refners complain that partially
refined sugars from the West Indies are
imported as raw sugar, thus coming into
competition with American sugars, to the
detriment of our manufactures. There
seems to be an inclination in the committee
to reduce the duties on all sugars. 1.-The
refners oppose this

The North and the South

commissioner WELLS, whose statistics we
have criticised ard found to be in some
particulars much exaggerated, appears tc
delight in presenting dark pictures to the
northern people. He makes out that there
is great decline of wealth in the principal
States amongst them. We suppose hit
tables are not oil wrong, and that there il
at least some good ground for his representa-
tions relative to the increase of mortgages
upon property; and though this is not q
fair test of the Indebtedness of q country
vet we may well teseas that Indebtedness
is much greater at the North than at any
previous time. That mortgages are not,
however, to be taken as a fair sign of decay
of wealth appears in this, that in growing
and thrifty communities in this country,
yet in its infancy, the multiplying of bust
ness and enterprises multiplies mortgages
to secure loans for their prosecution.
But, with this qualification, we may
YET conclude that Secretary WELLS is right
to O considerable extent in considering the
sign OF the multiplied mortgages OF the
North at this time one of increased embar-
basement amongst the people. It is we'll
known thataf the war there were signs Of
"flush ,times'' that ,misled even US in this
impoverished land into the widest no.
tions-real estate running up in a month
or two to high prices, and landlords charg-
ing four and FIVE times reasonable rents.
If that we're so here, what must it have
been in the North, where the people had
accumulated money during the war, and
were just in that gay financial condition
that opened the vista of the golden age"
once more to their elated anticipations.
Things must have been overdone, and debt
must have been accumulated.
The North we are sure is under deep
enow of mortgages, and will have indus
triougly and leisurely to work out. For
tnnately for both North and South the Go
ycrnment has held the financial reins
pretty tight, and the early tendency to
mad speculation Was, with tolerable prompt
ness, put under healthy check. A few
years will restore the proper equilibrium,
and reduce Indebtedness to the reasonable
aggregate amongst enterprising commune
ties.
The South, on the other hand, was st one
blow Frustrated to the lowest point of pecu-
mary misfortune, and has since been rising.
slowly enough but surely. A few years
will secure for the southern States an
amount of wealth that will surpass that Of
any previous period of their history, and
prove that it was not slavery alone that &C
cumulated for southern people that bright
prosperity which continually supplied the
wants and hberality Of genial society,
whosehappiness was never so great as when
dispensing refined and proiuse hospitality.
II is after all due to climate, and soil, and
the rich staples that flourish in them, and.
not toslayery. Already observant northern
men see what wealth is to flow to the South,
and have predicted that it would excel The
North in opulencs. Whether that predie-
ton is realized or not ne are sure that the
