SECRETARY RICHARDSON, in letter to
Representative Dawes, reiterates his pre-

TO obtain the necessary money by taxa

the tariff on these less than on any
others, and as to articles of taxation per-

on its face as to. scarcely deserve q

70 my friends to say that the state
.Enents of the article. and the pre-

false in substance, false In every

without a fact in existepce, official
or otherwise, to lend 1.-THE shadow
of foundation.
