not until the war commenced, until
the necessities OF tho var made the pro-

force in this country. By this act oil 1851
we had for tho frst time a real protective
tariff. That policy was not in force
very long. In consequence Of
the necessities Of the war
Il became necessary, not only
10 impose tariff duties on imported
goods, but also to impose duties on iu-
