A FAME TACRCs.-This is from Lon

friends, the public, heads of families,
and teachers in infant schools. that he
is prepared to exhibit on very reasona-
(qulte tame). The awe-einspiring and
terrific roars of this noble animal, COM
bined with its perfect harmlessness, are
now we'll known. Any person may,
with the greatest impunity, kick or spit
upon it, or pull it by the tail, so that
much fun may be derived from its fero-
clous demonstrations, at which nobody
need feel the least afraid. 1t Las been
exhibited before all the crowned heads
OF Europe, and has caused screams of
laughter. Address J. Bull, at the WIND

plantation, as the thirty who are at work
on the adjoining plantation of Mr.. Shat

praise of all who have seen them. We
would prefer to see white men locate

sufficient numbers to cultivate our fields,
then we will welcome Cinnamon, or any

dpce annually at home about 5000 900 worth of
Inmber and buy from the Colonies to the value of
S7OO0OOO Upon this the Canadian owner pays
duty of 20 per cent, amounting TO Sl400,000, re-
ducng the profits of the Colonial producer to that
extent. The imports from the Colonies are too lin
tied to affect prices; or, if they do. it is 10
reduce them slightly. In that case, the
result is the same; the Colonial producer
still pays the duty. From the fact that the
resort to those Of the United States and though
they now for this reason, send us nearly many
goods as they did during the operation of the Reel
proclty Treaty yet the profits upon their exports to
the United States reduced nearly to the extent
Of the duties paid, or over S4500,000 annually The
profits formerly received are now paid into the
United States Treasury. According to the wealth of

in lSl our neighbors are paying, per capita larger
than they would be required to pay in Internal
Revenue. if their Colonies were States in the Union
and shippers were enjoying free access to all the
American markets. The American Tariff consumes
the former profits of the Colonial exporter This
duces the price of labor in the Colonies and renders
it unpTOttable The result is emigration TO the
United States, where labor is more literally re-
warded under the operation of Protective Tariff.

Perhaps my deductions are wrong. Let me have
your views; and If the officers of the League are so
disposed, let the arguments on both sides be pub

The subject is important one, and should be freely
discussed and fully examined in all its bearings
