The receipts are beginning to show
the effects of the exhaustion of the
enormous stocks OF goods that were inn
ported in anticipation of higher duties
under the new tariff. But there are
two items, wool and sugar, articles of
large importation, which are even yet
but very lightly represented in the rev.
enue receipts. Their full representa-
ton will come later on, and then the
true test of the Dingley law as rev.
enue raiser will be made, and the ex-
pectation is that it will vindicate the
judgment of it's trainers. The January
revenue, leaving out of the account
$500, 900 paid into the treasury on ac-
count of Pacific railway sale, was less
than the expenditures for the month,
but these we're extraordinary, embrac-
ing $12,375 900 for pensions, and SIS,
1874 600 for interest. February outgoes
will drop back to the normal average,
and the revenue should show con-
tinued gain from the importations of
wool and sugar.
