The increase in the annual average ad vaorem rate
of duty on dutiable merchandise, from Al. 7O2 per
cent. in 1884 to 46.O74 per cent in 1885, has been
caused mainly by the decline in the prices of goods
subject to specific duties, upon which are imposed
high rates of duty. Among others, the following are
conspicuous examples of marked decline in price
without corresponding falling off in the quantity inn
ported:
Sugar, not above No. 13, Dutch standard, which de-
clined in price foo 3 46 cents per pound in 1884
20 cents per pound in 1880 molasses which declined
from 164 cents per gallon to 338 cents; clothing
woods from ~ cents per pound to 49, cents carpet
woods, from 12.43 cents per pound to O.55 cents;
glycerine from IL 10 cents per pound to cents etc.

ROquefOrt Cheese.

The ewes milk of a peculiar kind with
which it is made is carefully preserved
for the special manufacturing of Rogue
fort cheese; 100000 ewes furnish this
milk, which is poured into large earthen
basin and slightly heated; it is then
placed in moulds under slice of decayed
bread, which gives to the cheese the
greenish tints supposed to be the trade
mark of Roquefort; after which the
cheeses sre sailed and piled up in cellars,
where they are left for several months be-
fore they are edible. This is only a sum-
mary of the process by which the ex-
quisite Roquefort is obtained, AMI it is

quite heavy weighing about FIVE tons-so
that it cannot be easily stolen. Nor can it
be broken into within the ordinary working
hours of burglars, for it is built up of alter
nate plates Of iron and steel welded to-
gether- The steel plates prevent drilling,
and the iron any breaking with sledges.
To effectuaIly prevent any one from
opening the lock by obtaining the combina-
ton by roasting the cashier or otherwise
coaxing him TO reveal it, there is ''time
loo" arrangement that prevents any one
from working the. combination until the
proper time comes. This 'time-lock' is
double, that is to say, there are two time
pieces, which can hardly run down at the
same time, and this precaSde does away
with the chance Of not having the combina
ton ''tiIne locked" at the time.
To guard against the safe being rendered
inaccessible by the stoppage of the time
pieces, five minutes before eitheB runs
down it releases the bar that would other
wise stop the combination from being
worked.
In case the official in charge of the safe
wishes to go away for certain time, say
for an hour or two, in the evening, he can
set the time lock, so that if he is not back
in time the safe is fast until the next morn
ing.
Take it altogether, the safe is as secure as
it can well be made, and is a credit to
Messrs. McNeal and Urban, the makers.
The time lock is the Sergeant and Greenleaf
patent. Mr.. Berger, the Agent, expects the
safe to be in position to-day.
