<br />The petition of the Warden, Reeves and Deputy Reeves of the Ceenty of
<br />Essex, in the Province of Ontario, respectfully sheweth.
<br />That the farmers of the said county of F.ssex are materially injured by the
<br />competition caused by the importation of agricultural products into this Province
<br />from the United States, while they are debarred from the United States mar-
<br />kets by the heavy duties existing in that country upon such products ; there-
<br />fore your petitioners resperAfully pray that Your excellency would be pleased to
<br />cause such a revision of the Canadian tariff as may enable the agricultural pro-
<br />ducers of this Province, and of the Dominion, to compete successfully with
<br />the neighboring nation ; and that such other revision of the tariff be effected as
<br />shall, without being prohibitory in its character, encourage the languishing in.
<br />dustries of the country.
<br />And your petitioners will ever pray.
