EAST-INDIA HOUSE, the 96th JANUARY, 1813. AT a GENERAL COURT of the UNITED COMPANY of MERCHANTS of ENGLAND Trad ing to the EAST-INDIES, held thb day : Resolved, That this Court perceives with deep regret, that after a long correspondence and discussion, conducted with ex emplary firmness, temper, and ability on the part of the Court of Directors, and with much difference of opinion among the several Ministers who have represented his Majesty% Govern ment in the discussion, and closed on the part of his Majesty's present Ministers with a reference to the petitions lately pre ' sented to Parliament, as a ground of their new determination, the parties have at length arrived at a point, when decision is ab solutely required, between the ruin of the Company and the disappointment of the petitioners against their Charter. Resolved, That on former discussions rehtive to the renewal of the Company's Charter, and particularly in 1793, his Majesty's Government Were prepared, at the outset, to state the precise extent of concession which could safely be allowed to the peti tioners against the Company's Charter': and their mature con viction appeared then to be, that the regulated monopoly of the Company was essential to the interests of the country, and that this consideration alone was a sufficient answer to ail pretences far interference with that monopoly. 1 hat the territorial possessions of the Company in India are their certain right, and that the system provided for the Indian Government by the wisdom of Parliament, together with the disinterested spirit in which it has been administered by the Company, have extended and consolidated the British Empire in the East, and added to the strength and glory of the British Em pire at Home. • That the trade of the Company has long ceased to bear the character of a strict monopoly; and that, by some further mo difications, if thought indispensible, in addition to the arrange ments of 1793 and of 1802, it may be rendered as much an open trade, as will be consistent with the security of revenue and the prosperity and safety of the In(lian Empire. That it 13 the opinion of the able , t Indian statesmen, as well as of the generality of persons acquainted with India, that no large or sudden addition tau be made to the amount of British exports to that country or China. That this *pinion is confirmed by the practice of the Americans, who export chiefly bullion, and by the overloaded state of the Indian markets. That the habits and religion of the natives are hostile to any such ex tension; and that the Company actually suffer a loss in this department of their concerns, with the view of employing the capital, and encouraging the industry of their countrymen at home. That so far u relates to the ordinary.produce of India, the import trade is now carried to the full extent of the dermuid, as appears by the value of two millions and a half sterling of private p o l .erty at this moment remaining in the Company's Ware houses; and that to open the outports to that trade, would be no other than a ruinous transfer of it into new channels, to the destruction of Immense and costly establishments, and the beg gary of many thousands of industrious individuals. That an extension of the trade in other products, the supposed effect of opening the outports, could be realized only by a large transfer of capital to India, and its consequent colonization.— That, if realized, it might fatally interfere with the manufactures of England, or with her commerce to countries where similar products are already raised by British capital, imported in British shipping, and paid for by British Manufacturers, and that, thus, such extension would deeply injure those very persons who are most impatiently petitioning for it. That any unrestrained interctiurse of Europeans with our In dian Empire is highly to be deprecated. That the unlimited competition of commercial news would, from the peculiar cir cumstances of the country, produce " a boundless scene'of con fusion and fraud, and ultimately the ruin of the manufacturers themseivo• t" and that tempting opportunities would be held out to the agents to Maintain illicit intercourse with the Native Powers, and to conduct a dangerous system of communication with China from the Eastern Islands. That this Court' do most highly approve the conduct of the Directors upon the vital question of admitting the out-ports to the import trade from India; anti that the confusion and hazard from irregular sales at the outports, the loss to the revenue front smuggling, and the consequent ruin of the Company's China trade, are decisive obstacles to the policy of such a measure. They are therefor.' firmly of opinion, That the Court of Directors should, can no consideration whatever, cede this point in the dis cussion: 'That i: also appears, from numerous petitions pre sented to the last Parliament, that on the faith of approved and long established practice, an immense capital has been invested in establishments, peculiarly adapted to the export trade between India and China; and that many has, ener.cments bare been entered into by persons in the City of Loudon, and on both banks of the 1 hames, from London-bridge to Gravesend, the very subsistence of many of whom depends upon the continuance to the port of Loudon of the export trade to India and China; and that ileaely 10,000 industrious markers, together with their fainihes, would be in danger of beggary, in proportion as they would be thrown out of employment, by the removal of the ex port trade front its accustomed channel. 'this Court therefore conceives, that it is of vital importarre to the City and Port of ' Londe), , that the rap .1, trade to India and China should continue to he carried on as heretofore. _ _ That since the high du ies on artirlre imported Would still re main, th.. abatement iu the price of freight, expected by Peti tioners to ensue trout the subversion of the pres.-nt system, would be productive of trifling relief to the coti.umer ; and that this relief would be purchased at the extreme hazard of the revenue of Cultoins and Excise, now collected easily by the Company, as well as imminent danger to all the sources of their wealth. is India. That there is no foundation, in fact, for the statement which ascribes to the Company's Charter the advantages enjoyed by neutral foreignets over British Merchants, in the admission of the former to atritde from which the latter are excluded; for that the profit .with which that trade has been carried on by those foreigners, has been entirely owing to the facilities neces sarily belongit.g to their neutral character, and which, of course, cannot belong to the merchants of a belligerent state. I'hat the discharge of the pt litical functions of the Company depends on the cont!nuance of its commercial privileges. !'hat the propositions of his Majesty's Government, by giving a fatal blow to the commercial interests of the Company, will, if in sisted on, eventually terminate in its political dissolution; and that political advantages, of the highest importance, will thus be lost to the coun,ry, among which the following deserve to be distinctly noticed, as much too valuable to be sacrificed for a trifling redaction in the freight of Indian goods to Europe. I. A marine of 100 large ships, containing a tonnage of 103,333 ton!, employing 1400 officers and 10,C00 seamen, of ac knowledged skill and bravery, and which has been found ready and able, at all times, to minister to the national convenience and to augment the national glory. 2. An extensive establishment of yards, which has often ren dered large and seasonable assistance to the Royal Navy, and might, in cases of necessity, be made available to the national defence. 9. The remittance of the fortunes accumulated by above 3000 officers of the Company's militaty service, and some hundreds ot civil servants, which are traustetred to the capital, and stimulate the industry of Britain. That, in addition to these considerations, the liberal disburse ments of the Co Tarty for national enterprizes, and the merito rious contribution of their service to the National Fund of strength and glory, are entitled to a just and honourable retnemberance, in the preparation of any measure which may vitally affect their interests. _ _ _ _ _ That connected with this department of the subject, is the extreme danger to which, in case of the Company's dissolution, the balance of the Constitution would be exposed, by the transfer of the Indian Patronage to the Crown, and the enormous burden which would be entailed on the public, in satisfying the claims of compensation on behalf of the Company, and of all the compli cated interests which would be involved in its fate. , _ _ That, by the destruction of the Company, a vast number of those Proprietors, amongst whom its capital of twelve millions sterling is divided, would be reduced to extreme distress ; and nearly 40000 persons, direely employe4 by the Company, watt TO THE AFFLICTED WITH NERVOUS DisORDF.R& THE CORDIAL BALM OF QUI CO, a must convenient, safe, and infallible remedy for Nervous, Bilious, Gouty, and Rheumatic disorders, and every kind of dos hility or relaxation in persons of either s a, young or old, who• ther hereditary, natural, er occasioned by a residence in hot or unhealthy climates, the immoderate use of tea, spirituous Upton, or other noxious fluids, too sedentary a Ile, or too close an appli cation to study, excesdve grief, injudicious admiaistrat fun of men cury, dissipation, excess, improper practices, fainting fits, violent headaches, complaint. of the lungs, inward wasting., trem bling off' shaking of the hands or limbs, shortness of breath, consumptive habits, &c.

A REAL BLESSING TO MU l MRS, DR. BUCHAN most pathetically describes the sufferings of children while cutting their Teeth, a most dangerous penod, at which time the utmost attention ought tel be paid dam; particularly at this critical season, when the chin cough and measles are so prevalent. Ii the irritation of the gums comes with any other disorder, very few infants tecover. Mo• then ought never to be without the AMERICAN SOOTHING SYRUP in the nursery, for if a child wakes in the night with pains in its gums, this valuable medicine applied, will imme diately open the sores, heal the gums, and tb.leby prevent fevers ur convulsions. Parents who may be dubious of the %dimes of the Soothing Syrup, may refer to the different noes that have appeared in this and other papers. Since Mrs. Jon Nee st has ap• prupriated one hour twice a week, vie. front nine to ten o'clock, on Tuesday and Saturday mornings, to the poor, who may hare children afflicted In cutting their teeth, by bringing a letter from a housekeeper that the nio. her is a real object of charity, has • made it so universally knowti, that ca..es world be superfluous, as its virtues are known in almost ,very fatuity where there are young ch Wren.
