In Venezuela

In Venezuela.— The Venezuelans are much dissatisfied over the large export duties which are now being levied on all goods sent from Venezuelan ports. They claim that the export duties are working greater injury to them than did the blockade of the allies. Some of the merchants declare that they can not pay the duties, and this of course puts an end for the time to their foreign business. Reports indicate that the revolutionists are as busy as ever, and are again threatening the capital. To many of the members of the Venezuelan Congress the protocols with the powers are exceedingly distasteful, and it is feared that they may not receive the approval of that body.
