To return however to the subject of opium duty. Though as we have said the increase of duty does not greatly interest the averago British merchant, it is naturally a matter of very material importance to the Indian Government, especially if no steps are taken on the Chinese side to inx native-growe opium. We have no information as to what it is. proposed to do in respect to the latter. At present it is not recognized as n tax- able commodity at all, not even sis an existing commodity, by the Imperial Go- vernment, though it is taxed freely DRUGGETS SUNDRIES, NURSERY Requenough under provincial rules.

eaforcing the prohibition against it al- together, which is extremely improb able, it is certain that the cabancement of die duty on imported opium will give a great impetus to the former at the expense of the latter. In spite of all that the Chinese Government may Buy, civ-growe opium is now a re- egnized competing for public favour as 786 against Indian, and indeed at the three Northern Ports has practically driven it from the field.
