Tariff on Tea and Coffee.

Ir. Dawes, of Massachusetts, has un.
dertaken to restore the duty upon tea and
coffee, which was RENTED not long ago.
For the effort he should have the com.
mendation Of every American citizen.
Our government levics q tariff upon
importations for the purpose of raising a
revenue. Tea and coffee being exclusive
~ foreign productions, do not come into
the list ot comparative articles. In 1872,
the the tariff on these commodities yield.
ed a e cf $12, 100000. A. soon as
the tariff was repealed, eacl, Of the coun-
tries producing tea and coffee, levied an
export tax upon eack. This made the
cost to consumers just what it was under
the tariff and took s12, O0O, 600 from the
government Treasury. Let it be restored
again as speedily as may be-.
The people entertain very
views concerning the legitimate sources
OF revenue. From the present tariff on
cotton goods go per cent? the govern
ment does not realize more than one.
fourth rs much revenue as it does from,
any article produced exclusively abroad,
for the reason that in the latter case all
the. tax collected goes into the Treasury,
while in the case of the cotton, it is Just
90 much added to tie price Of home man.
ufactures and raises the cost of the for.
eign article in the ratio of the per cent.
Of tariff. The effect is this: American
manufacturers sell their goods at foreign
prices. plus the tariff and the cost Of ex.
portation, trusting to the favoritism of
home markets, and the quality If their
goods, for . successful competition with.
foreign expectations. What is true If
cotton goods, is relatively true of all 9th
ers which are produced both ut home and
abroad. The duty le wed upon them does
not increase tue revenue materially, but
it goes into the pockets Of those from
whom we purchase our supplies, and con
stitutes what is known in political phra-
geology as "incidental protection" Take
away the tariff and these goods can be
purchased at prices regulated by a
healthy competition. The present effect
Of the tariff on the articles enumerated is
to increase their cost to consumers and
to put three-fourths Of such increased
cost into the pockets of manufacturers,
under the p~retence of supplying the reye
nues of the governments sham which
the people Of this country will ere long
discover, and for which they will hold
their representatives responsible.

Bank of Delaware, who has been Ill
for several weeks with typhoid pneu-
monia, died at his residence, No. III
Washington street.
Mr.. Floyd is hest known by his con.
nection, with the National Bank OF
Delaware, which he began astellel on
August 14th, 1882 In September, 1874,
he was elected to the cashicrship, a
position he held with great credit to
himself and advantage to the bank fol-
over 90 years, until December 1st, 1873,
at which time he resigned. Mr.. Floyd

MEETING TO DEVISE MEANS FOR THE
RELIEF OF THE POOR DURING THIS
WINTER.
A number of gentlemen propose to
meet on Wednesday evening, Dec. III,
at n o o'clock, at the Historical Society's
Room, in the Masonic Temple, to ma.
turc plan for the judicious relief OF
the poor of this city during the present
winter.
All who desire to cooperate in such
a work are earnestly requested to be
present. AS the result of an informal
consultation of those who have united
in calling this meeting, it has been
considered that probably the best mode
of effecting the object in view would
be to use the existing organizations OF
which there are more than one In this
city for the distribution of such means
as citizens may feel disposed to contri.
butte duriug tho winter rather than at
this late day to undertake the forma'
ton of new organization. 1t is there
fore suggested that such relief socie
ties as are at present organized whether
operating through the whole city or II
particular districts, should be repre-
sented at this meeting in order tina
there may be an opportunity to ascer
| tain clearly how far existing organiza
tions may be sufficient to carry on
| this necessary work during this win
ter.

OFFICIAL INSPECTION OF THE VARIOUS EN-
CINE HOUSES.
last evening, Chief Engineer Mccall,
Assistant Dutton, Mayor Simms, and the
City Council Committee on Fire Compa-
MES, paid the annual visit OF inspection
to the fire engine houses, in order to as
certain the condition Of the Fire Depart
N emit.
The inspection showed that all the
Companies were provided with every
thing necessary, except good hose. The
Water Witch Company owns some gum
hose which is the only really serviceable
hose in the Department, the new leather
hose purchased last year being utterly
unfit for hard service.
In some OF the houses the members
showed the visitors how quickly they
could prepare for service. At the Wash
ington House, the horses were taken
/ from the stable and attached to the
| steamer by two men, three successiv o
| times, in 10. 10 and 8 seconds. Consid-
ering the distance the horses have to be
brought in this house, about fifty feet,
the time is really remarkable. At the
last trial, the engine was taken to the
curbstone IN 13 seconds from the striking
OF the gong.
At the Friendship House, four trials
were made. four men taking charge OF
the horses. Time. Ii. II, 10, 81 seconds
At the Reliance House, three trials
were made, with three men in charge.
