Almighty God and confess with contrite
hearts alike our sins and our dependence.

humiliation and prayer.
Let tis on that day lay aside our secular

past trarsgressions, beseech the Lor d to
turn from us all those evils we most justly
have deserved, and to continue to us those
blessings of health and plenty, peace and
freedom, which have so long been our
portion.
Let us with faith ask Him to endow our
rulers with wisdom and the people with
content; to reward with great bounty all
honest labor; and to bless and preserve all

AMERICAN GOODS IN GERMANY.

oPPosITloN OF GERMAN MANUFACTURERS AND
MEKCHANTs-TuE TARIFF.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-The Department OF
State has received a report from Joseph f. fo'Vef'
limited states Consul Crefed Prussia In gard 10 the
imporation and sale Of American goods in Germany IN
which he saws: "There has in the past year, been
considerable In the sale of useful articles ana
household goods imported from the United States not
withstanding active opposition OF German nahuiactur
ers There seems TO exist In Prussan Germany an Or
ganizaion manufacturers and merchants Tor the p
nose of checking the introduction OF American goods
int, GERMANY II an article of American manufacture Is
,t npon the market here which oOmmeDds Itself 10 pop
ular favor it is Immediately Initiated provided 1t cannot
he kent away by q free Interpretation OF the taln
laws"
The report contains letter from E. Taschner ner'
chant of Crefcd dealing American goods in which II
is stated "for the possible benent OF exporters
ond manufacturers in the United states, that many
articles not before known here have through lmpOr-
taton from America come into extensive use anu rs
result naturally following, German manufacturers are
initiating such goods with more or less Skill In sh
hardware especially in goods, there are more im
tated goods in the market than there are OF original In
portatons The limitations usually manufactured Win
ot the slightest alteration Ia the model and are put up In
such manner that they cannot be easily distinguished
from the original The articles jus referred to are snch
as coffee pot and sadr2n stands Irvine boxes coat ana
hat hooks can-openers, brackets handles, bells. drills
ercbeators, appeparers, and many other articles Tine
duty which is levied upon American stoves is very heavy
aal the importer is always kept state Of uneasness
As "a the Interpretation which the ctOm-h0use 0hcers
are likely TO put upon the tariff laws Importers who
shin goods 70 this country ought TO make themselves
th1roahly acquainted with the German tariff and know
how 20 pack their goods ia such u save the pQf
chaser here much trouble ard useless expense; IOI III
stance the duty casJirOn stoves Is ak
MARKS per 100 Kilograms, and upon iron
goods in connection with nckclpatcd iron is p marks
grams il also put upon nckep plated iron not connected
with other goods. IT, therefore, the American shipper OF
stoves WOuld separate the nckelpated parts ana PACK
them and the heavy iron parts in another me
receiver would pay q marks per 100 Kilograms on thc
case aud only marks for similar weight on the
second. For lack OF due and knowledge the ex-
pOrteTs goods burdened with cost for duties three OF
four than Is necessary and at the same
time rendering their sale very difficult Ii Is the same
way with many other articles. Greater care should also
taken in packing goods, the handling on board yes
sells and railroad Is rough and considering the
distance the goods have travel land and II eau
be- tTuthu said that the necessary precautions in pack
ing and shipping are not taken"
