The Papal goverament, being desirous to restore the credit of prelatical rule, entrusted the province of Fermo and that of Ferrara’ to two laymen, whom it se jected from amongst the worst citizens, and who, conse- quently, governed more iniquitously and atrociously tuan any other of the public fuectionariee. Under such cir- curpatances the people cou!d not help wishing t> have back the priests, so much more intolerable were the abomipatious perpetrated by the laymen. ‘The following particulars relative to part of Italy, which # now the seat of war, may be found interesting at the present momevt:—The population of the Marches, ac cording to an oficial retara of the Pontifical government, was, ip 1863, 922 702 souls, of whom 176,549 were in the province of Ancona, 110,881 in that of Fermo, 243,104 in Macerate, 257,751 in Pesaro and Uroino, and the reat in Ascoli and Camerino The citadel of Ancona is situated on the summit of Mount Artagno, upwards of 300 feet above the level of the sea. The town stands on the part of the mountain which slopes to the ses, and iis port is formed by little hills which consti- tute a sort of amphitheatre. The highest of these hills, which protects the citadel iteclf, is the Montagnoio, upwards of 700 feet above the level of the sea, There is also Mouct Guasco dei Cappuccini, whic is on a level with the barracks of the artiterymen in the citadel.

The Comme tures ana Si Tobacco Considered—Statistics, [From the London Saipping Gazette of Sept 17 ] The bill lately introduced into the House of Re- presentatives at Washington, seeking to impose igh duties open various articles imported from this country, as well as from the continent of Eu- rope, appears to have received support from vari- ous persons, on the plea that adequate protection is not given to native manufactares by the present tarif! laws, and that, consequently, capital, which might be profitably and usefully employed in the production of fabrics at home, is diverted into chan- nels otherwise than favorable to domestic industry. As regards the article of silk, it has been urged that it is impossible for American manufacturers to compete either with England or France that the fierce competition on the part of these two countries for the trade of the world has completely shut out other than foreign silks in the whole of the markets inthe States. Let us see how far the arguments here used in favor of higher duties are borne out by facts. Admitting that the manufacture of silk goods in America is but in its infancy, it is necessary that we should notice its gradual developement and progress during the last few years, in order that no misapprehensions may exisi on a subject which, unquestionably, has most significant bearings. Jn contirmation of the pro- gress of silk manufactores, we may observe, that in 1845 the value of raw silk consumed in the States amounted to only $204,092. In 1354 it was $1,091,- 423. Since then, with the exception of 1855, 1856 and 1857, che increase is an important one, until, in 1559, it rose to $1,310,912. The annexed figures show the exact state of the trade, both import and export, from 1855 to 1859 inclusiv DWVORTS OF RAW SILK INTO THE UNITED STATES, me Imports S751 617 = 71122 630,195 991 234 4255 986 979 953,734 4,183 949,571 $1,800,065 94,002 1,285 973 1320800 = 19.9781 10.912 The above figures prove conclusively that the opponents of a steady inflax of foreign made silks into the United States have made out no case in their favor. On the contrary, we have here shown that the manufacture of silk has steadily increased; and, no doubt, it hasbecome a source of wealth to those sagaged in it. One of the supporters of the — new scale of duties admits that the teade has grown up queitly, but with great rapidity, during the last few years, and we are informed by a compe- tent authority ‘‘that “he goods now produced are quite equal in all respects to the imported makes, and are sold at from ten to fifteen per cent lower prices.” If, then, such is the position of the silk trade in the States, why attempt, by an absurd system of legis- lation to deprive the foreign producers of the bene- fit which ought to result from a steady and contina- ous demand for so useful an article as silk’ If it can be manufactured and sold from ten to fifteen = cent under the imported value of other prodac- ions, why seek to impose unnecessary restrictions upon importations? It is a great mistake, however, to suppose that America will ever be in a position to manufacture the whole of the silk used in that country, Even in England it is found impossible to compete with the foreigner as regards make and color, to which certain important secrets are attached, and which it would be found difficalt to imitate successfully. In the production of the dnest descriptions of silk an immense outlay of capital is necessary. This outlay we can hardly expect to witaess in a com- pai ively young country like America within a n period; though, on the other hand, we are prepared to say that, eventually, such capital not be found, and that both the quality and color of the silks may, in some instances, come u to the European standard. Len hare for Ameri- ca, the enterprise in silk manufactures has for some time past been fostered by méans of low im gort da- ties on the raw material. By the tariff of 1857 the duty of 15 per cent was wholly abolished, and single, train and thrown qualities were ad- mitted at 12 instead of 16 per cent— the rate established by*the act of 1846. No one can possibly cavil at such a moderate scale, and all who desire an extension of the trade must al- low that the legislative enactment admitting raw aalities free of duty was a judicious measure. hat it has been highly favorable to the steady de- slopement of manufacturing industry must be evident from the fivares we have given above, as well as from the admitted fact that American ma nulact w selling at from_ten to fifteen imported from Eorope, after, ume, leaving a handsome profit on re told that t! age cost of manufacture is about one-half the value of raw matarial. Itfollows, therefore, that ont of the the thirty silk mills now in operation in different parts of the United States—in which are employéd from 8,000 to 10,000 hands—a revenue of about $1,000,000 is now realized. Many of the mannfacturers this country would, we to be enabled to make so favor- port of their proceedings year by year; but they have even a greater amount of competi tion to contemd against than the A wericans. This competition is, we admit, chiefly confined to the \ ithe continent is so famous, and to certain colors, which we find great difficul- ty in imitating. Nevertheless, our trade shows no such progressive increase as the American, which to become one of considerable impor- some future period. Before, therefore, tive determines to exclude English silks from America by the imposition of high daties, the relative position of trade should be fally consider. ed. A higher duty apen silk manufactures must lead to a falling off in our general intercourse, and to an utter failure of the principle that is now en- deavored to be applied to revenue, viz., an in- creased annual income from restrictive inflaences, There is another question of considerable mo- ment to which we may direet attention, bearing, as it does, directly upoa our commercial inter- d course with America, viz, the duty | pon to- bacco in this country. The growers in the Sta’ complain that we levy an import daty far too high to admit of an extension of the growth of the ar- ticle, and that its amount tends to check consump tion. Let us examine the truth of this statement. In 1847 the value of the tobacco exported from the United States was $7,242,086. In 1852 it had in- creased to $10,031,283, aud ia 1859 to $21,071,038, The annexed figures show the value of the ship- ments since 1852:— 1884... $10,051 283 1856 + $12 271 845 1858. »~ 1AawAw 1867 ‘20 602 772 1854... 10 016,006 1858. 17 009 767 1886... 14,712,468 1860 ao 21074 088 In eight years, then, the value of the exported tobacco has doubled, and the present state of trade seems to indicate even additional shipments. We admit that a high duty is levied in this country; bat | be it observed, it is upon an article of luxury in | which most classes indulge, and to whom market value seems of minor imp Silk, however, is a very different commodity. This is an article of necessity, both in ita raw and maaufactured state, and, as such, entitled to special privileges in regard toduties. Whatever may be urged against our eystem of importa, the growers of tobacco in the States should bear in mind that last yoar they shipped produce of the value of $11,700,000, and that three-fourths of that quantity was teken b England, France, Holland and Bremen, to which the annexed values were forwarded.

We cannot, however, charge the Americans with any actual desire to check commercial enterprise, since it is now fully apparent that they are merely endeavoring to revive @ worn out sys- tem in support of home manufactures. Enterprise, industry, and general activity, aided by compara- tively small duties upon importations, have made America what she now is, a great emporium of produce—so great, indeed, that in some previous joms she has furnished England with supplies of food by which a famine in these islands has hap- pily been prevented. She has, too, ‘‘held her way” for years in farnishing the world with cotton to an almost unlimited extent; but, before she can become a great manufacturing country, and suc- cessfully compete with Europe, she must import more skill, and sink enormous amounts of capital in manufactures. No reasonable person would pppaae her progress in these particulars; but if at any future period ie =méanufactur- ing trade of Europe should be, so to speak, jeopardised by high duties upon importations and the want of remunerative prices in the States, in- tercourse must fall off, and raw produce here be- come @ mere drug, in a comparative sense. Be- fore the Americans tamper with their import da- ties, therefore, they should fairly consider their present ppomilicn as regards England and her colo- hies. They should bear in mind that out of the £62,928,000 of foreign trade in 1859, England and her dependencies took £42,810,000, or about sixty- five per cent of the whole exports. Out of the £56,522,000 of goods imported into the States in that year, £26,751 ,914 represented those furnished by means of English and colonial industry. These figures may be thus divided: — Countries. i 163 281,044 i 3,228,903 e 1,585,811 f 419,119 . 60,814 Capada . . » 11,581 678 17,029,254 North American Possessions, 4,244 948 6,622 473 British West Indies.. + 1,907,738 5,557,608 Britieh Honduras. eriitl 412 916 452,596 Britiet Guiana, 329 687 ‘$84,601 Britieh Afr! 1,061,647 445,527 Australia. 65 264 3,206 .680 British East 12,140,783 1,278 7 Topian Staves 42,218 3,060 Total.... $153 659 572 214,053 275 ¢ 781,914) — (442,810,665) If, then, the trade between England and the United States isto continue to prosper, let America at once throw aside all impressions in favor of re- strictions. For years the gaat republic has flourished under a system of duties which has taught Europe a most important lesson. That lesson has, fortunately, placed England ina high position amongst the nations of the world; and shall America, with her vast resources, seek to stem the current of trade which, hitherto, has been so profitable to her?’ We trust not; but if ever so unwise a policy should be determined upon, the re- sult, in more than one point of view, may be disastrous, Miscellaneous Foreign Items.
