CUSTOM HOUSE VAGARIES.
A traveller who recently return- od Home from British Centrul Africa gives an interesting ex- amplo of the ways of the Custom House. He brought back 2 lbs. of manufactured tobacco and 15 ¡lbe, unmanufactured. All of it was duly declared, and on the 2 ba, he paid 9s. id. na duty, but the officerat tho West India Docks could not say what the duty on the unmanufactured – stuff · would be until it had been tested, and it was nocordingly left at the Custom House for that pur- pose. The test was presumably, required to ascertain the quantity of moisture, which governs the amount of the duty. Some days. later the importer, beard from tho Port of London Authority that the Unsioms obarges were 42 | 178. Od., being £2 168, for duty and 280d, for fine, and that fliere would also be 2, 31, 10-1 pay for warehousing enddocks charges. It was added that if the Customis
