The duty, he con tended, would not affect the farmer; as what was imported would be immedi ately exported again.

Mr. M. concluded with some general remarks on the sys tem of the bill. Mr. Wood, of New York, opposed the amendment, as the proposed tax would benefit a branch of industry in comparable more valuable than the man ufacture of aoap and candles; it was the right arm of the nation in respect to her marine interest; while it incouraged ship building it furnished the best and only permanent nursery for seamen, &c. Mr, Tod contended that the present motion was virtually the same as that deckled yesterday. Mr. Mercer opposed this view, and explained. -. MM.- - l i. i.

Mr. C. objected to the duty proposed, as being a mere tax, not calculated to benefit the domestic product, and to in jure the manufactures of that imported. He traced the course of.legislation on this subject for 30 years, and insisted that -the use of native hemp had retro gated rather than advanced. The Brit ish duty was only $21 that now pro posed, more than doubled the duty. On motion of Mr. Reed, the commit tee 1 then rose. A . . " Monday, March 22.

The question was then taken on the amendment of Mr. Marvin, and it was negatived. , Mr. Forsyth moved to amend the amendment in the 1st and 2d lines, so as to read," a drawback of 75 per cent," instead of " the drawback allowed by Uw " He stated his object to be to make the drawback on this article to correspond with that laid by the bill on other articles of this description. Mr. Webster explained the operation of the amendment, and the provisions of the 6th section of the bill, which op erated only on tallow. .' , Mr. Forsyth replied. As a new system of duties was about to be adopt ed, he said, a new system of drawbacks should also be adopted. He thought 25 per cent, not too much, as a remu neration to the United States Govern ment for the troublesome mode of pre venting frauds in relation to this draw back.
