THE TARIFF CHANGES.
The treasury department, to-day, mailed
copies of the new tGriff bill to all collect
ors of customs together with instructions
that sections seven and nine of the act go
into effect at once, and apply to all goods
in bonded warehouses, as we'll as to goods
imported after date of the passage of the
act. Section seven repeats the duties on
charges heretofore added in ascertaining
the dutiable value of merchandise for the
purpose of assessment duties. This action
will cause considerable reduction in the
amount of duties collected, which reduc-
ton Is estimated by some at 5 per cent. of
the entire amount collected. Section nine
of the tariff act changes the manner of as
certaining the value of merchandise con-
signed by manufacturers in foreign coun-
tries to agents in the United States and for
which there is no foreign market value, for
reason that the goods are specially manu-
featured for sale in the United States only.
The law authorizes the ap-
praising officer to ascertain the
cost and value of material composing
merchandise at the time and place of
manufacture, together with the expense of
manufacturing, preparing and putting up
merchandise for shipment, and makes the
value so ascertajned thus, for assessment
duties. The sections of the revised stat
utes repealed by section seven of the new
tariff bill, are sections 1907, 2,90S, and
section fourteen, Of the act to amend the
customs of revenue laws and repeal the
moieties, approved June %, 1874. They
are as follows:
Section 1901. In determining the du-
table value of merchandise there shall be
added to the cost or actual wholesale
prices, or general market value at the time
of expectation, in the principal markets of
the country from whence the same has
been imported into the United States, the

If imported into the United States, the

facture. whether by land or water, to the

The Public Highways.

Major James +. Hart, State Senator
from York County, has addressed an
open letter to the Commissioner of Ag.
riculture concerning the public highways.
He suggests the advisability of the Gen
eral Assembly selecting Commission Of
practical men to revise the present sys.
TEN OF road maintenance. Az tempo.
rary makeshift he thinks that the Legis.
lature might adopt plan providing that
all roads be maintained and worked by
contract; that each able.bodied person
liable to road duty be required to pay
Communication tax in lieu of road duty
that such person be allowed to work
under direction Of the contractor at a
fixed per diem in discharge Of his com.
mutation tax; that a small annual tax,
if necessary, be levied to defray tho ex.
pense Of the plan, and that the contrac.
to, be required to give bond and be held
responsible for the condition Of the road
within his district Mt all seasons of the
year. Such plan, Senator Hart thinks,
might be worth trying until something
better can be had, but what the country
will eventually demand will he system
Of permanent roads which when onca
established may be maintained at trifling
expense.
In the Piedmont section of the State,
where the ronds ase wort, the remedy il
easiest, for the hills and rondbeds are
lined with stone, which is we'll adapted
to road making. Major IIarts opinion
Is tlint q county engineer would be able
to designate tho sections of each road
where permanent roadbed is most
needed. The worst sections Of such
highways might ut small expense be
macadamized to tho extent Of an eight
foot centre track for loaded vehicles,
leaving q track on each side of dirt road.
This centre track would constitute the
nucleus Of a permanent road that could
be expanded to greater width as the
country demanded it. Such system
would cost great deal of money, but
Major Hart estimates that "the sum of
5000 annually employed on one hun
dred miles Of thossworst sections of road
in York County would in a few years
transform them into thoroughfares. pas.

Major Hart says that "the system Of
hiring out the convict labor of the State
is inhuman in its workings, subyersiye of
prison discipline cad Of the true objects
Of punishment" He thinks that all
convicts should be employed within the
walls Of the Penitentiary during their
term of imprisonment; but rather than

The Freedman's Bank SwindIc.

Under the lash Of the Democratic
press and in Difference 10 the opinion of
honest men all over the country, the
Republicans have for several years past
been making ftful effort TO restore to
the negroes of the South q portion of
the money of which they were robbed
by the representative Republicans who
had charge of the Freedman's bank
swindlc. Sixty.twO per cent of the
money will be paid, leaving thirty.eight
per cent. "a the profits Of the Republican
party.
This money has been refunded under
the pressure of Democratic opinion, and
at the instance of Democratic Congress.
men. But restitution, in this instance,
comes too late to cure the villainy or to
prevent the suffering that resulted. The
Frecdman's bank was organized under
the auspices Of the Republican party,
and Republican "philanthropists" were
placed in charge. They went to work as
carefully and as Systematically as pro.
fessional burglars. They established
branches in all the principal cities Of
the South, and had agents in all the
towns aud villages. They employed
negro preachers to insert an advertise.

thousands of negroes were robbed of
their hard earnings thousands whose
names never went into pass book, who
gave their money to agents" and heard
no more Of it.
The deposits Of the negroes, identified
and unidentified, were spent by the
Republican leaders in riotous living.

distressing one in all its phases. Every

ty, disappeared in the capacious pockets
of the Republican party.
The statement that sixty.two per cert
of the money thus stolen has been paid
back to the depositors is calculated to
grossly deceive the public. 1t is to be
doubted whether ten per cent. of the
amount deposited has been paid back to
the negroes. When the collapse Of the
bank was announced the Republicans in
charge OF the institution waited until the
unfortunate negroes had been in q meas.
ure reconciled to their losses, and then
agents began to appear in the South for
the purpose of purchasing pass books.
! Thousands of claims upon the bank
thus changed hands, and tho bulk of
the sixty-two per cent. has been paid to
Republicans who hold the pass books.
From beginning to end, the freedman's
bank is a swindle.-AUanta Constitution.
