And the House adjourned.
Tuesday, May 6.
Additional Revenue.
The House resolved itself into a Committee of the Whole on the further report of the Committee of Ways and Means, on the subject of the revenue; when the first resolution, laying an additional duty of twenty per centum on wines, after being amended, on motion of Mr. Griswold, to read as follows, was adopted:
"Resolved, That it is expedient to lay an additional duty of twenty per centum on the amount of the present duty upon wines imported into the United States, and to vary the scale of duties in such manner as to comport with the plan of the Secretary of the Treasury."
The second resolution was agreed to without debate as follows:
"Resolved, That it is expedient to lay an additional duty of two and a half per centum ad valorem on such goods, wares, and merchandise, imported into the United States, as are now subject to a duty of ten per centum ad valorem."
The third resolution was opposed by Messrs. Harper and S. Smith, and supported by Mr. Griswold; after which the committee rose, and obtained leave to sit again.
