It is unjust in principle that for an article of such necessary consumption as woollens 40 per cent should be exacted, while for articles of luxury, such as wines and silks, imposts should be adjusted on equitable principles. The system of such duties for woollens would afford ample protection if the duty were . reduced to 25 per cent. These cash duties have effected a great alteration in the extent of protection. No one who has watched the operation of the scheme of allowing long credits for the duties, but Jnust have observed its decterious operation, as well on the commerce as the general business of the country.? It has beea the basis of much of that rash adventure by which the trading transactions of the country have been characterized since it haspreva led. if Most Melancholy.?A few weeks since, says the Richmond Star, two inti / _; 1_ .1. _ fy I l I mate menus, ui nit* uuncuru .itnut-my, in this State, puchased of a fellow student a beautiful pair of pistols, each taking one.

Having done that, it was difficult to raise additional subscriptions, after it was sup posed the requisite sum had once been provided, and but for the ladies it ncvci could have been done.
