The Tax en Sumatra According te the decision of Secre tary FolRer, agreeably te the wishes of the tobnece dealers and home rnlserp, though contrary te their expecta tions, nil Sumatra tobacco lit for wrappers la te be taxed ns such at thenewduty, 75 centa per pound, and it will net render n package llable only te the 35 cent duty te make It up of St per cint. wrappers and 10 per cent, fillers, as had been devlsed In order te evade tlie spirit of the law. It aeerns that previous constructions of the tariff laws have been te the effect that when two articles nre wrapped together the whele package must either pay the tax en the higher artlcloereach bear Its own rate, nud Secretary Felger, overruling French, declares that a pack, ajte made up partly of Sumatra wrap, pers and partly of fillers, by hands, can b3 se separated for taxable purpose us te lmpose the higher duty en the wrapper tobacco. The secretary with his usual caution does net wish te ba understood us making his fln.il decision in this matter te this effect, but only makes it the ruling of the custom heuse authorities se us te put the burden of the appeal upon the Importers. As nobody except a few importers and thodlplemntic representative of the Netherlands is said te be much Interest ed In importing Sumatra tobacco the Lancaster county farmers and packers will new have all the advantages which they claimed they would have been de prlved of had the attempt of the im. porters te evade the law prevailed. We suspect, however, that the30 ad vantages will net be se great us has been excitedly claimed ; nor is it true that the present dullness In the tobacco trade Is due entirely te the agitation of the Sumatra question and the uncer tainty of its issue. It sseni3 te be agreed that in the very large tobacco factories which depend tne-tUy en the appearance of their product te sell thorn, the Su matra leaf Is desirable. Frem three te four pounds of It will wrap n thousand cigars, because it is light in weight, tbln and smooth, the leaf, short and wide, cuts te advantage, there is little waste and it is free from heavy coarse veins At from $1 .10 te $l.t0 per pound which It commanded under the old duty it would be used mere freely than nt from $1.60 te $2, which will be asked for it at the new and higher duty. Hut I if first class Pennsylvania wrappers, wrapping 1,000 cigars te six or seven pounds, can 1j had at from 40 te 50 cents per pound, which affords u geed profit te the grower nud dealer, nil manu facturers who leek te the quality of their goods will prefer It. The flavor Is vastly preferable te that of the Sumatra, or rather te the hitter's luck of it. The lessen te the Lancaster county grower simply is te raifce better tobacco, by the cultivation of Havana seed or ether means. It will always command geed prices and need fear no foreign rival. They Hill Ket he l'crsuailcd. The stock market since the opening of thejear has demonstrated in its course the indent desire of capitalists who are heavily leaded with stocks te secure the usaeut of the general public te take a slinru of the burthen. Prices have been advanced by their efforts, but the public has net exhibited a very marked disposition te take a share of the liberally premised profits of the deal. They have se often geno in te their undeIiiK that they are new equally without the needed enthusiasm nud c.isn te go in again, air. ueuld, us chief of the Missouri Pacific railroad, has kindly sent te u miscellaneous as sertment of business meu u circular letter, describing the very profitable business of that read in the past year. The statement, he says, is sent out in advance of tlie annual report of the read, which will be sometime In pieparu tien. Uut he cannot resist the desire te tell his friends that It made U per cent. The data ure net quite all in, but this is the closely approximate result of the year's business. Mr. Gould evl deutly thinks that u fourteen per cent, stock is one te be bought, lie has a great deal of It himself. Apparently na much us he wants or possibly .he would net tell hew geed it was. Perhaps he has even mere than he wants and will sella little te get some of his eggs in another basket. We fear Mr Could will net find many buyeis among these te whom he has addressed his circular. Mr. Gould Is tee well known us one who takes religious ciue of number one, te be able te persuade any sane citizen that it will be well te buy his Missouri Pacific from him. There- Will he Harmony. Tun Uepubllcau newspapers me very busyjuBt new In seeking te cieatothe belief that there is serious dissension iu the Democratic ranks iu tlie matter of the tariff, and they even go he Tar as te charge that Speaker Carlisle nud his friends ure Beeking te read Mr. Kaudull and the Pennsylvania Democrats out of the parly. Of course, they de net be neve turn, for they can hardly be be stupid. Itl remarkable, though, that they should be willing te print se trans parently stupid u Btery. it Is manifest enough that Mr. HundaU and ids fellow congressmen from Pennsylvania will net ueBire 10 iuke u position en the tariff question which the national De. mocraey will net udept ; and it is just ns cleur tlml Mr. Carlisle, nnd tbose representing districts net particularly interested in manufacturing will net desire te assuine any position en the tariff which the Democratic ropre. BonUUlvesef manufacturing districts will revolt from. Whatever may he the dlf. ferences in the doctrines of the different Democratic representatives it is certnin that none of them wish te read any of Uieir brethern out of thelr party, but that ull have a strepg disposition te promote party unity; and te that end will be ready tosurrendersemo. thing te the opinions of each ether. Demoeratlo leaders tire net feels, ns the Republican journals would argue. Mr. Mutchler, a Pennsylvania congressman! expresses the general feeling of the Democratic representatives of the state when he says that he will net resist fair nnd moderate tariff reduction ; and few Democratic representatives will desire te urge any ether. Mr. Carlisle Is well known te be conservative In his views upon tariff reduction and te favor no great change at present. There will be cntire Democratic harmony In what is done.
