Resolved, on the motion of JOON JOONSTONt. F.aq. seconders by Jour+ Homier PALNIIIR, IE4. That it appears by the I.rinted , journals and votes of the last Parliament, that numerous applier dons were then made from the out-parts and provincial towns 4 the united kingdom, with a view to the East India arid CMGs trades being carried on to and from such out-ports, should them , trades be still further laid open at the expiratien et sheFastliella Company's present charter : and from a letter of the Right Hoes 1 the 1-resident of the Commissioners foe the Affairs of India , dated the 4th of January, 1818, to the Honourable the East India Company, it now further appears, that the Ministers cif big litoyalHighness the Prince Regent's Government, bare abant countenance to the object of such applications as fares ther ri e w g. late to the Exit India trade ; and that this Meeting feels • deeply interested In any measure of this extended eaters; es die gime must materially affect the numerous classes and descriptions of persons now engaged in these trade:, which, whether mined , es they now are, or %miser any extension thereof, must orttientaa rily form the means of support to those who have ambesied therein, and to whom any removal or dispersion of the traikvoil be highly injurious and detrimental.

Resolved, :I the motion of RICNA RV Twirciara, jun. Esq. se• corded by Jousts TAT Lea, Esq. That by the present method of conduct rg the import trade, and its being conftm4 to the poet of London, smuggling is in a greet degree prevented, and the ad valorem duties are collected, not only with the utmost etatuges and facility, but on the full value of the commodity, and at the least possible expencc to the nation : whereas should the import trade be dispersed, smuggling could not be prevented; and not oily would the revenue be exposed to this 10-s, now so e ffects... ally guarded against by well-proved regulations in the collection, but the duties paid ad-valorem would be matertilty diminislisd by the want of those regular markets, and that concentrated competition by which they are 311 W secured and augmented. Resolved, on the motion of THOMAS Baowsr, Esq. seconded by Was. Davis, Esq. 'I hat as the most considerable part of the articles imported tram India are for foreign constimp.ion it has been the practice to make the sales in London at fi xtsi periodseil the year best suited to attract the purchasers from abroad, and to have the gt eatset ty of each species of goods put up to sole at one tame, that their demands may be more extensively supplied, and their motives for visiting this country strengthened; but if the present salutary system should be changed, it woo* be impossible so to regulate th e sales at the different out-Orfil point of time, or assortment of goody, as to induce the • . • merchant to corn: ta this country, and this. circumstance • t 4 not only occasion a vet y matetal diminution of the large menet arcing trom Indian importations, but would bet %lily detrain*. tat to the manufacturing interers of the country; as it is an in disputable fset, that the foreign merchant, induced to come t London, as betng the sole emporium for Ir.lnui produce, p chases to a still more consideraltleratent the manufactures of . !Juiced Kingdom.

Esq seconded by It obert Humphrey Martin, Esq.• That ho silvan tapes, tares, cornmen , urate with these sacrifi ces, and whh the . which would be sus•alited by the numerous clams of peeve now carrying on the trade In London, will be t ilialce,l by , public at large from its dispersion in the out-ports, and that m a radical alteration in the system now rtabliehed bf law cool only In justice, he made upon an indemni fi cation to th ose wk. would be injured by the change.
