SUGAR,

ME-. EDITOR As your readers may not all be fa-
milar with the present tariff Sugars and its effect
their cost to consumers few facts MAJ be OF IN
| tecest 10 some of them.
Under the act last passed by Congress such grades
are suitable for refining purposes pay duty of
Y to 21 cts. per d. while those adapted to con-
sumption or suitable TO without change, pay r
duty of 4 to cts. per ID. The result of this is that
the quantity of the better grades imported is very
smal-by comparison next to nOne-consequently,
the entire community obliged to take, with slight
exception, those clarified or refined here,
If this difference in cost THE amount of which you
readily conceive would be immense in dollars,}
went into the Treasury, should all feel relief
i'll the knowledge that it contributed to pay debt
which would have to be met in some other form,
and, consequently, not matter OF any especial
sequence. But such Is not the fact On the contrary
what duty is now paid over the rates for refining
grades, is for the protection &C fow manufacturers
in this country; or If that expression is jcctedto
for the profit and expense OF doing the work here it
being well known that Sugars are clarified where the
| raw material is produced, which, as suggested, wo
should get but Tor the excessive duty they now pay
Molasses, which almost 90 called Sugar, Us it RI
used its substitute pays but one rate of duty,
though it may be worth % or 50 cts. per gallon. An
Coees, without regard to quality place OF growth,
pay cts. per b.; and Teas though they be worth 80
cts per ID. 81 %, pay Is cts IL is intended to pc
ttion Congress- that the tariff shall DO changed
that all grades of Sugar shall pay rate Of duty.
1t being rocoected that refners do not now pay any
manufacturers tax. The necessities of our indsbt-
edness as government win for long time require
a duty to be placed on Sugars, which Win no doubt,
be liberal protection to oar planters in Louisiana
~.
change in this matter will, no doubt, accomplish the
most desirable result by comforting with the Repre-
sontatiyes in Congress from their district.

From the New York Tribune.

Much of the antipathy evinced on
the introduction of Chinese labor into
Captain Herveys steam laundry at
Belleville has been overcome, but a
number of IRISH laborers engaged on
the Midland Railway have manifested
a logged antagonism which has from
time to time, threatened an outbreak
The laundry is on the Bergen side of
the river and until recently the China
men have regularly gone to an eve
ming school on the opposite side; but
owing to the demonstrations of the
Irish laborers, Captain Hervev has
deemed 1t advisable TO restrict the at
tendance to one evening a week A
number OF them were returning from
school on Sunday evening, when as
they were crossing the bridge, volley
of missiles was hurled at them.
Several Of the boys in the party were
struck, and one was dangerously wound
ed in the eye. The assault was quick
~ resented, and those of the Chinese
who carried revolvers---a precaution
rendered necessary by the aggressions
of the Irish-dIscharged their weapons,
intending to brighten their assaIlants.
The ruse had the desired result, causing
stampede, and arousing the villagers,
who feared that the threats of the la
borers to destroy the laundry had been
carried into effect. Pursuit was given,
and one OF the rioters was locked up in
the Hackensack Jail. Threats were
made that within a hours Capt. Her
vey's house should be in ashes if harm
should beiall the imprisoned noter--
The wounded boy viii probably recov-
or. The residents of Bele@ille resent
the action ofthe laborers unqualifedly,
and are determined to lend Capt, Her
vey assistance.
