to make one suppostion:
Should we import this year 500, 100000 of
goods from the loom, the anvil, and lathe of
England, France and Germany, which would
take the place of 500, 600, 900 of similar goods
of American manufacture in our home trade,
what would be the result Our manufac-
turers would lose the profit they ought to
make, which we will call 10 per cent; this
would be 10000, 900 of dollars then our la
Dor loses so per cent. of the entire cost, which
would be 10000 900. This with the manu-
facturers' loss amounts to SEQ, 900, 900, against
the advantage the consumer finds in his for
cign purchase, which we will say is 10 per

One more point and will leave this matter,
which is exactly in keeping with large ma

per cent. to induce the consumer here to buy
foreign goods, per cent will settle the choice.
SO for the sake of the slightest advantage,
little to the consumer and to the salesman,
our markets must be thrown open to the

Treatys

In 1880, the ex-Emperor Napoleon negotiated
with the late Mr.. Golden, the English aposv

tween England and France, under which the
former country lessened the custom dues on
French products, especially wines and silks,
and the French in return materially redueeQ
the duties upon English manufactured goods

Assembly to increase the tariff, naturally
alarms John Bull and his manufacturers,
hence, Lord Lyons is trying his persuasive
eloquence on Theirs to convince him that
things are better as they are, and the advan-
taoe all on the side of France. sTc prove
this, the English press are quoting figures as
the basis Of their argument. Tley say tnat

France exported to England 259, ,0o0 ,0O0francs
of merchandise, England sending in return

France of 2,0O0,o00 francs. Whereas. under
this reciprocity arrangement, France in 1863,

her products. England exporting to France
but $50 ,OO0, 900 giving France the advantage

may be true, but deeper still with England is
the fear OF losing any French customers for
her manufactured goods, as whatever France
may do, it lis unlikely that the middle aud
