cle, they fairly express that intention thus :
"Cloyed sugar (10 per cent. ad valorem)

bles, and wood. used in dyetsg, are under
the oar per cent. ad valorem head."
Toe protective nature of the tariff is es -
'tatted at every step. Thus iron, pig, bar,
rod, and scrap is under the one per cent.

•cethes are to be charged twelve sod a -las

THE PROPOSED CANADIAN TARIFF.
From the North British UaJy Wail, Feb. 5, 1318.
The gentlemen of Manchester shnnl! hare
been served with a copy each of " the table
of Customs dotter, under the Act 10 are :1
Victoria, chap. 31 and 33, for repealing and-
ti
consolidating the present duces of Custom.
in the Province of Canada, and for other
purposes therein tnenueffect
oned, to take et
on the 5th January, 1848." The docu-
ment, of which w. copy eseolominous ti-
tle, would have been evidence that, •ender
our exsg
ieg system, free trade is makin
crab -eke prngress. The Cabalism Legisla-
tors are i:.geswuu in the construction of
tarifftithe--
The, and also 10 the adoption of tie.-
The description quoted by us of this docu-
ment is, however, deficient in important
respect,. The Act repeals duties, for the
purpose of re -imposing them with Interco',
simple and compound. It enn.obdaer du-
ties and thereby increases their weight.-
This characteristic js not cataltorred fo the
descriptive title ; and if that had been read
at the Manchester benq•iee, the reporters
would have whispered to eacb other that
thaw are genie, better io Canada. The
replesentumvrs of the Parttime* do not
merely Wrath," bot also prophesy. They
intimate the comm se free ef this Act on
Vie 5th of January apt. We rather think
that the erect del ace then tome in force,
never and probably will be in operatiem
without revisal and reco,,s deration. The t le per cent.. we find cotton, linen, woollen,
