Thechief kicking among the republicans^comes from the Massachusetts nu n and^Now England generally, the sop thrown^^ ^nt to the farmers in the way of increase in^duties on corn, wheat, rye, cheese, butter^and other farm products is considered by^a i stern men as a huge joke: but tbe New^York members who represent districts bor^^dering on Canada think that they can^work that scheme to some purpose. It^seems that the Canadian farmers have been^Stnding their butter, cheese, bacon and^ham and truck of that kind to Huflalo and^otlu r eitiesto lie sold, andthat the Ami rican^farmers along the Niagara nvor have been^protesting in consequence. This is the^secret of the increase on farm products, but^the western farmer who raises considerable^more tlian he can dispose of in the local^market, aud who has to seek Canada for a^market, will perhups not be so pleased if^the Canadian parliament should ^aeo^^l ucle Sam and go him a few cents a pound^bettof on farm products.
