Proposed Duty te B Levied en Animals and Animal Product. Washington Dipatrh te Philadelphia Ledger, United States Minister Ryan has Inform ed the denarttuent of state by telegraph that the Mexican government Is about te Issue a decree removing certain clashes of II ve animals from the free list of the Mexi can tar I IT, and imposing duties thereon upon the Importation into Mexico, and itu lwsJiig a duty en dressed animals and all animal products. The proposed rates of duty are as follews: Kach mare and stal lion of any age, (20 each ram, wether and ewe, 3a cents; each kid, tlve rents ; each hog en feet, 12.60; cattle, 93; mules and asses, 82 each; dressed animals, or any part thereof, 10 centa per kilogram, net. This decree will take effect en the 1st of next Nevember. It was stated te Minister Ryan that this decree was te be Issued In retaliation for the action of the treasury department In relation te difTcrentlaldutlesurien Mexlcan vessels and increasing the duty upon silver lead ere. In former communications te the department of state, dated August 22, Min ister Ryan said upon this subject : " lit view of the vast amount of American capi tal Invested In railroads and mines In Mex ico and reduction works In the United State directly Involved In the question of the importation of Mexican lead and silver ores te the United States, It may net be Improper for me te add that grave appre hension prevails in the country, net only among theso directly interested, but also en i no part ei tne government, ana gen erally among all classes who are solicitous for the promotion of trade relations between the United States and Mexico, that the action of our government may be such as te seriously erlpple this commerce." The recent action of our treasury depart ment upon this subject was net regarded by the Mexican government with serious dis satisfaction, since it was se much belter than the worst that was tcared, as Mr. Muriscal oxprcssed it in a purely non-efll-cial interview with me a few days age. "In this connection I will add that the Mexlcan peoplearuoxtrcmoryscnsltlvo touching any action of our government the tendeney of w hlch may be te embarrass their trade in tercourse with the United States. With out reference te this important subject I trust I shall be pardoned for expressing the cotnlctlen, formed from such clese and careful observation and study as I have been able te make clnce entering upon my duties here, that the people of the United States have very largely te guiu and little or nothing te leso by the most liberal trade rotations with Mexico. If our government ugrees with me in thls"rospe:t, thou I beg te make a suggestion that the longer reciprocity negotiations are deferred the mere difficult will be their consumma tion because of the constant development of Industries in this country (Mexico) that naturally create opposing interests." Copies of Minister Ryan's dispatches have been furnished te the treasury depart ment, and it is expected that the considera tion of the facts stated by Mr. Ryan will delay the promulgation of the new ruling about te be Issued by the treasury depart ment governing the importation of Mexi can ores, and may lead te a modification of sonic of the previsions.

THK HACK QUESTION. Shall the Negro Population oftlie Houth Be Removed f Frem the Birmingham, (Ala ) Iren-Age. An election In Mississippi Is simply a contest for race supremacy. It is the same lu nearly all the Southern states, and has been se ever since tlie war. Yet soma of our Southern conteiu)oraries contend that there is no race problem. This Is a most unwholesome and undo. sirabln state of affairs. Tlie whlte people of Mississippi would gladly welcome a change, but there is no change possible un less they are willing te return lean ciaef negre rule such as they Miflered for several yearH after the war This would me.ni wholesale rulu and can't be submitted te as long us lliore Is any iwsslblu way te avoid It. With this constant pellllcul hostility be tween the race wilh the constantly re curring nice riots and instances like that in Atlanta and in Solum who can doubt that the greatest blessing tlie Seuth could have would be removal el the negrees, or such large numbers of them as te leave easy whlte majorities lu ull the states. It would bennllt thoSeutli lu particular, unci tlie whele country would coine lu ler a share of the blessing. All sectional ani mosities would disappear in six mouths If the rnee question wcre removed. There would be nothing for such animosities te feed en. The rctnevul of tlie lingua's from the Seuth is, therefore, the great problem tu which the statesmen unci patriots of this country should doveto themselves. The New Brldite at Jluriisljiirtf.
