PROYECTODE CONTESTAC[ON
AL DISCURSO DE LA CORONA.
PRESENTADO EN- Ell CONGRESO.

Ell proyecto de cCntestacion al discurso
de la corona, leido en- la tarde del dia II
en- el Congreso por el Sr. Balaguer, dice
asf:
"Senor: La aperture de las tareas legis-
lativas, que fue para V. M. OCCASION de
j1bilo, no ha sido en- verdad menos grata
para los diputados del pals que con salts
faccion profunda han visto al monarca,
cumplidor escrupuloso de las leyes, apre-
surarse & reunir Ell Parlamento para como
Ger las aspiraciones, los intereses y las
necesidades del pueblo espanol.
Ell Congreso Sc felicita de que el Go
bierno de Vuestra Magestad mantenga su
cordial y NO interrumpida inteligencia con
todas las potencias amigas y de que las
cumplicas explicaciones, espontaneamen>
te dadas por la repdblica de Venezuela,
hayan quitado todo car&cter de importan-
cia al incidente allf ocurrido con nuestro
represeutante. Conforme con V. M, confa,
pues, y desea que no negue turbarse
nunca la poltics de paz y fraternidad que
debe unirnos con los estados americanos,
& los cuales, acaso mas que ninguno, nos
enlasan estrechamente intereses y vfncu-
los comunes sostenidos por la identidad
de raza y por Ia gloria de imperecederos
recuerdos.
Los representatives de esta nacion, que
siempre blason6 de cat6lica, en- cuyo seno
cuenta la Iglesia tantos y tan feryientes
hiios, comparten con V. M. la esperanza
de que pronto Sc restablezcan entire el Su-
mo Pontffice el Gobierno espanol, las
buenas y antiguas relaciones, que por fun
darse ahora en- mejor entendida concordia,
no sera fxcil que 4 turbarse vuelvan en- 10
successive.
Para coadyuvar al mismo objeto que
v. M. solfcitamente Sc propone, 81 Com
greso- fjara la atencion en- las arduas y
complicadas cuestiones de Hacienda, al
dellberar acerca de las medidas que some.
ia el Gobierno 4 su examen, procurara
que las reformas, estimadas como mas
conducentes, sean aquellas que con menos
gravAmen de los contribuyentes puedan
: que las economics, aprecia-
das como mas hacederas, sean las que me-
nos puedan afectar Il natural desarrollo

remarks, very forcibly sustaining the pro-

The Tobacco Tax.

The amended tobacco tax gives the great
cst satisfaction to tobacconists in Richmond
and all tobacco manufacturing communities
in the State. A uniform tax of twenty GEMS
isa very great Improvement upon the oio
tax. The abolition of the bonded ware
house, indeed, is drawback upon th'
benefits of the amendment; yet it goes h'''
Il short distance in the way OF ollScltlhS
them.
The representatives Of Richmond anu
Lynclblrg were particularly active III pro-
curing the modification Of the tax. C"lohcl
BuKwELr, of this city, was not only very Gill
cicnt, but untiring in his efforts. lie deserves
the gratitude (as he no doubt receives ~
of the whole manufacturing community.
The tobacco manufacturing interest l'ls
been greatly retarded by the delays attend
ing the action of Congress on this tax. Inc
operatives have been driven to suffering ana
want bv the sloth of the Federal lawmakers.
They will now get q plenty to do. Inc TO.
bucco manufactures will be once more full
of activity, and The whole community VIII
experience the benefits of, we hope, most
PROSPEROUS business amongst the nanllictu-
