AS long as we have a national
debt to pay, and as long as we
have to raise revenues fp the
support of. the government,
taxes upon imports seem to be
the simplest and most practi-
cal method of raising those
revenues.-[Northern paper.
1t is right and proper that
imports. should be taxed. The
government should receive a
reasonable revenue from this
source. But with the present
high tariff, which is to a great
extent a prohibition against
imports, how much Of the na-
tiOnal debt will be paid by
reason of such a tariff. 1t is
not the object Of the present
tariff to raise a revenue to
either pay the debt or to sup
port the government; but its
object is to keep foreign goods
out of the country that the
home manufacturer may be
protected. And the home man,
ufactuer, protected by this
tariff, puts the amounts on the
price of his goods, and the
consumer has to pay it, and il
goes into the pocket of the
manufacturer, and not in the
treasury Of the government

Why We Lose Immigrants.

. Some twenty months ago
an honest, hardy 1rishman
landed in this city from an
emigrant steamer to seek a
home and fortune in our midst.
He had been induced here by a
description of Louisiana sent
out in immigration interests.
He accepted the first offer OF
work, and in the course OF time
assembled the scale from steve
dore to a driver ola street dray,
and besides the ownership Of a
mule and dray had accumulat-
ed the snug sum of $500. He
then determined, and wisely
too, that he would retire to
some country parish and live
and die under his own vine
and fig tree.
He had read of favored Alta
kapas, the garden spot OfLou-
isiana, and he drew a cOmpari-
son between a rickety city
tenement with its unhealthy
surroundings and its exorbi-
tant rent, and a neat rural cot>
tage without those incumbran~
ces. He was ready to hold the
pillow, perform all manner of
physical labor and would un-
doubtedly prove 4 valuable
acquisitions to any community
in which be should cast his lot,
He prospected up and down
the beautiful Teche, and was
delighted with the country, but
upon inquiry he ascertained to
his sorrow that good lands, al
though threatened by mort,
gage, and the owners 10y pow
erty, were not offered in guam
titles small enough TO be within
reach of ordinary purchasers
and save in undesirable local.

And the following for city bank shares :

The Canada Southern Railway, which has been
doing some local or way business for several weeks
past. will be open for traffic between Buffalo and
Toledo on the LIST of September. The opening OF
this important line has been heretofore delayed by
the failure of the International Bridge Company to
complete their structure the Niagara River at
Buffalo. and the refusal of the Suspension Bridge
authorities TO permit the passage of rival cars over
that highway The question as to the right OF the
Canada Southern Company to run their cars over
the Suspension Bridge has been for some time IN
litigation, but pending this legal contest the G. s.
will have the use of this bridge by agreement. How
evel the international Bridge will be finished early
in October after which the right to pass over the
Suspension will not be matter Of so much import
