These considerations, forced by) the exieting Stale of Ubiuys upon the earnest attention of this de> | department, are submited to. the wiedom of Gen- } gress, in the belief thet they present revgons of the most imperative cheracter for @ modification.of the present jevenue Jaws. The large prospective im- portutious should he checked by @ higher sate of duties, so es to bring their aggregate amouat with- Vi limit of our capability to pay. If the exports - ¢ the last year define that limit, then. our imports for the ensuing year should wot greatly exceed $152 (00,CO0 It is believed, however, that we may ealculiie safely upon un export of gold, the several rer to come, of at leost from ten to fifteen mil- ions annuelly, exclusive ef what goes abroad, direct from Califoruia, without any detrimental of feet upon the currency or busiaesa of our people. The supply of thie metal from our own mines may at present be estimated at 000,000 annually, in- cluding that sent direcuy from California to other couatnes, and this supply, it is believed, will not be likely to dimivish ia amount for the next. two or three years. : Tf, then, we can afiord to spare the above amount of the precious metela, in payment of foreign mer- chandise, it moy be furly assumed that our exports, including all articles, wilh be equal to about one hundred end sixty-five millions, supposing always the trade of the world to remeia unaflected by any disturbing causes. In the opinion of this depart- ment it would be unsefe to assume an amount of imports as a besis upon which to levy duties for re- venue beyond this latter sum. If the prevent rates cf duties be applied to that amount, we should receive from custems only 87,950 000, and the amount of revenue required for the present and succeeding years would fall short of ihe estimates for the current year, by a fraction over even millions, It cannot be doubted that.a rate of duty higher On meny articles than that paid by the present law migh( be established without affecting injuriously the revenue. The extraordinary influx of foreign merchandise for the last year and the firet quarter of the present one, must be regarded as conclusive proof that an increase of duties #0 as to advance the amount of revenue seven millions on the suine cunt of imports is eatirely practicable. ‘hat evch increase will be found neceasary to the demands of the Treasury, is believed to be be- yond doubt, unless ‘ese shall discontinue many of the objects of ex ture which ongina- ted jn our recent territori ie and this, in the opinion of the departme: be equally impolitic and unjust. From the foregcing conesdorations, the depart- ment would submit the following modifications of our preeent revenue laws i ad varlorem system, which should impose specific duties upoi arti- cles to which euch duties may be safely applied, with home valuations upon ail euch as are necessa- wily subject to ad rem rates. 1 It the ome specihe duties shall not be adopted, that the io Valuation, instead of the foreign, should then be applied to all imports sub- ject to ad valorem duties. TIL. If neither of the foregoing chanzes shail be bt proper, then it is deemed highly neces- sary that the presen: rates of duties eheuld be in- creased cn a a variety of articles which it will be found could bear such increase with the most salutary eflects upon both trade and revenue. tof the two first. modifications suggested above, would, undoubiedly, correct many of the inequalities of the present system, place all im- porters, whether purchasers or manufacturers, on equal grounds in respeet to valuation for duty, guard the revenue against the flagrant fraude which se se pace perpetrated under exietiog laws, and insure stability and permanent increase of the reve- nue. They are, therefore, earnestly commended to the favorable consideration of Congress. In eny aystem it is believed that experience has erttled the true policy to be pursued in several par+ tieulars which enter into our system of revenue | laws. Among these are that all raw material should be admitted at a moderate rate of duty, | when aseeserd ut al!, thet al) non-enumerated arti- cles rhould be asseseed at higher rates of duty then the averege of manufactured articles, and that all articles compored of the material should in general the seme jaty. in order to insure uniformity the business of the evstom bovee, avd equali y in the valuations under any system, | earnestly recommend the creation of a corps of appraisers at large, whose duty it shal: be to visit the principal porte. of entry in the United States from time to time, with power to correct unproper valaations and prescribe rales for ine local appraisers.

Not only this, but courtesy and kindness were extended to their captains and officers on every side, Those gentlemen were feted and feasted, and hospitably entertained wherever they went, our country. ‘This, we are sure, they will admit. In fact, there was as much attention shown to them in Boston and New York, as if they were our own citizens, and their steamships were our own steam- ships. We do hope that our citizens will coatinue to treat the Cunard line, amd all connected with it, in the game Manner; but we must say that we cannot belp condemning the petty spirit which has been manifested, by the British press and the British people, towards the Collins liné of steam- ships, from the day when the A tlantic—the pioneer of the line—reached, Liverpool, to the present hour. We thought it a very emall piece of busi- ness when the Cunard line lowered theit rates of freight fifty, or more, per cent, in order to pre- vent the American steamship United States from getting a cargo on her return to New York. That, however, was “‘a fair business transaction,” compared to the meanness which has been re- sorted to im England, to depreciate the steamships of the Collins line, and induce travellers to pa- tronize the Cunard line in preference. Stories, ae preposterous as they were unfounded, have been indwatriously circulated, concerning their sea- wi and the strength of their machinery, with the view of prejudicing the travelling public agains: them. In fact, there ie no dirty trick tha, has not been resorted 6 fot the purpose of depress, ing thoee magnificent vessels, and elevating those of theCunard line. There is no doubt that the interests of the Collins company have been seri- ously injured by these Cafumnies, but we had hoped thatthe better nature of the English people would.get the betier of their jealousy and envy, and that, aftera while, they would freely accord to the Collins steamships, the merit to which they are £0 well entitled, as the fastest, most commodi- ous, be t found, and most magnificent ateamsbipe afloat. We are sorry to say, however, that we have been disappointed, with one or two. news- paper exceptions, and that, at this very day, our traneatlanti¢ neighbors are as busy as they ever were in promulgating unfounded reports reapecting the beautiful steamships Of the Collins line.
