Conkling and Kern an, of New York, presented a resolution from the New York Stats Benate, remon strating against the passage of the bill to re-organize the army, or at least that portion of it prohibiting the manufac ture of arms at the United States arse nals.

Yu' a'gued. that the duty on sugar should .be collected on ad valorem principle, and that no discrimi nation should;be made against any class of citizens. Legislation should encour- . age labor and cap tal to afford people sugar at tbe lowest price. Tbe con sumer would be bost proteoad by the tariff which approximates 10 free trade, and leaves undistu bel the relative value of sugar as wheu purchased at places of production. He opposed one rate duty, as it would annihilate tbe refining interests and- allegations of fraul against the refiners, circulated by those in favor of one rate duty have been disproved. Wm. T. Booth, of New York, com menced his remarks by declaring his belief that the sugar refiner should be protected. He then, spoke of the pola rtscope, saying its value depends on the accuracy of the reports of samplers, and that sugars are not so'd, owing to the results of po'ariscope, but on the bais of the color.

The Auditor's Report will prove this fact. The period between 1844 and 1854 is selected because then as between 1868 1878 little or no interest was paid on the Public Debt.
