AYERS PILLS.

A large proportion of the diseases which
cause human suffering result from derange-
ment of the stomach, bowels, and liver.
AYERS CATuARTIc PILLS act directly upon
these organs, and are especially designed to
cure the diseases caused by their derange-
ment, including Constipation, Iudiges-
tion, Dyspepsia, Headache, Dysentery,
and a host Of other ailments, for all of
which they are safe, sure, prompt, and
pleasant remedy. The extensive use of these
PILLS by eminent physicians in regular prac-
uce, shows Enthusiastically the estimation in
which they are held by the medical profess
sion.
These PILLS are compounded of vegetable
substances only, and are absolutely free from
calOmel or any other injurious ingredient.

The Tariff on Sugar.

The figures relating to the tariff or
sugar are interesting. The value Of
the sugar imported daring the last
fiscal year was SO 5 millions Of dol.
lars. The duties collected were 4e
millions, equal to "a per cent. of the
value of the sugar. This tax is levied
upon an article which everybody uses
it amounts to Clio for every luau,
woman and child in the country; and
it is assessed practically per copita.-
The sugar crop Of Louisiana, which is
protected by this enormous tax, is
worth this year about 20 Millions
The cost of protection is more than
double the whole value of the product
protected. But this is not all. The
sugar planters were prosperous under
the low tariff before the civil war;
The crop in 1861 was 459,44O hogs
heads. Under the war tariff the crop
has dwindled, and now, inza period Of
great general prosperity, is only about
half as large as it was i'll 1861, The
industry has not been stimulated by the
tariff. Nevertheless, the sugar plant
ers cling to the delusion that they can
not live without heavy duty on I'M
ported sugars. The president of the
Sugar-Planters association was men,
Der of the trait' commission, and the
commission, while reducing the duties
on cotton, wooden and iron goods from
20 to 2j per cent. has recommended a
reduction of only 10 per cent. on inn
ported sugar. This will leave tax of
2 IL cents pound on imported sug-
ars. This tax is premium on adul-
teration. 1t will be supported by the
manufacturers IF glucose and by the
Louisiana planters. 1t will be OPP
posed by the importers aud refiners of
foreign sugars. Portland importers
and refners have already signed a
protest against, and every consumer
who prefers to pay 6 cents a pound in
stead of 0, should join in their petition.
The granulated sugar which costs 9
cents here is sold for 6 cents in Eng
land. The difference is made solely by
acts of Congress. Portland Aver'er.
