the ccntncr, measure of weight equivalent to
ll3 pounds; and the reduction of the imposition
on Tobacco in leaf of about a cent and on the
stems of tobacco of cent and third per pound.
On liberal estimate of the addition which nigh;
be expected in the consumption of tobacco from
this rate of reduction of duty, in the States OF the
Zo Veren, it cannot be counted as extending
beyond few thousand-say from five TO SIX
thousand hogsheads a year. This estimate is
formed on the rate of progression ior some years
past of the export of Tobacco from the United
States to Germany. The price of Tobacco, lnde-
pendenty OF the reduction which might follow
diminished rate OF duty, is already so moderate
in the Zoll Yerein States that increased con-
sumption to any considerable extent can hardly
be inferred as the effect of the diminutlon.


Such, then, is the paucity of advantages pro-
missed from the acceptance of the treaty. 10
these are to be opposed the reductions Of duty
conceded in compensation, extending TO whole
classes and large varieties OF articles comprehend
ed in our present tariff, and descending to rates
of twenty, fifteen, and ten per cent.
