respectable body of merchants, among whom was Sir John Barnard', that the respoesibility of the , owners was too great, and a Bill was brought in by. Sir John 'Barnard, Sir Robert Walpole, and others, to afford relief to °setters of .ships its cases of embezle?nent. • 'Flint Was the first time the analogy between carriers by land and Carriers by water was hl'oken, the case stood till, 1786, When, in consequence of, the robbery of a ship, another Bill .was brought. in, by which the protection of the law extended to ship-owners in cases of 'robbery and fire. ••If he ,had now, for the first time, introduced a . Bill that al tered the law Witri respect to carriers he should bave considered himself a bold man, hitt the principle Of the law • had been broliain •in upon by the Acts he had alfeady tuentiOned in the cases of enthezildtene r obbery,- and.fire; The Learned Setiv:nit bad:said: that this was a Biii for the de -5(1 nation, not for the relief of the ship-owners... — It was singular that the Learned Sericant should understand their interestS V better titan trey' thelaselves ;' the BM had been a long,„ii'me `tie pending, and it Was stiange that not one of the . chip-ownm had come forward to. oppose that which was to effect their destruction. in the het of the 52d of the King, (nitleisperh4ips be. (ight not to refer - to, having , bought it in Mill. selt) the prineitsVe for which, he WAS uOvtr contending was adopted, and the owner was de clared not to be Babb: for more than tite value of • ,his ship, even As cases where loss bad occurred from wilful neglect in not taking a pilot on board. The alteration now proposed to ha made, v. , as not peculiar to England Oliere was .not in fact ,country in I.lerope where the , ship-owuert were exposed to so much responsibility vs they :were in this; in Franck tinder the old sestent, its flu! lam!, ant!-in I -lambing!), the principle:; for which he was now contending were acted upon. The best writers, Grotius in particular, entertained the saint opinionrespectiog the liability of sbip-owners. The . of carriers by laud and carriers hy sea was .. .sterytlifTerent in the former case, by, dtte tare and diligence ; accidents might be prevented .but atsea, in tunny cases, it was impossible, -Vessels inieltt meet in as dark night, in a fog, in attairow channel, among sand-banks, in a gale of wind— how then was it possible to guard against acei dents. What a situation then was the owner of a Ship placed:in, embarking property to the amount of a few hundred pounds, and he was notliable for :my more, he was in one hour ex posed, without tiny fault of • his own, to loss perhaps of thirty or forty thousand pounds. --4 t had been said that if this protection was extended to the ship-owners, it would pro duce carelessness; hut surely to make the owners . answerable-to the value of the ship was enough to make them careful( in choosing skilful masters - and mariners, in addition to which, it wait to he recollected, ti-tar the lives of those who attempted to do wanton mischief at sea \veto exposed 1 4 0 the greatest danger. lie was convinced, tharif this bill was not adopied -many of the:most respect:is . ship-owners wotild withdraw from so dan gerous it fmsiness; dangerous, because by noeare or eautiem' could • they in many cases save them- , selves front ruin. They could not secure . them s...;‘,cs by insuring, for though he might insure himself against what he might suffer, be could not • insure hinisadf iyainst what be might do. Mr. ](loss then proceeded to quote stone ca cs, partb.. ettlarly tfiat of the Russel man of war and :the London East Indianian, to shew how impossible it was to prevent-accidents, even' with the greateSt caetion, and concluded with expressing his . hope that. Parliament would adopt this measure, and extend that protectiOn to ship , owners„ which Was extended to them by every other maritime country in the svorhi. , The kuroeNeYsGENCII ,, ,L insisted, that when ail injury had been committed, :Is iii the case of a.. vessel running foul of • another, through wanton ness or negligence' redress . should -be had by the iejtvired pat,iy, and that redress could he sought for front ship-owners 9nly. ) who derived the pro fit of the, trade, and must. be consequently liable to its lasses.- When •those losses were owing •• merely to .aceident, no action would lie, and there was no Judge in Westminster, who, iii such a case, would not direct the J dry to hod for the defendan t „and reverse the verdict, if found contra ry to such directions ,gromided mettle evidence. -• when negligence, gross negligence, was •peirved, tcfesponsibility became . absolutely neces-'. Istoy, and it - could rest no whete but on the ships owners. If, for instance, they bad appointed a drunken master ; if the crew was not efficient ; and if through either of these or any similar c mses, any other vessel should suffer damage, surely the injured parties were entitled to indent , nity, to•the full amount of their loss, anti this aunt(( be 'done only by the responsibility of ship corners.. If - it was really the 'wishes of the ship ing interest to have such a Bill, then let theirs . bare it . ; but he Was, sure ,they would shortlyye pont their want of foresight, and pray for its ...He thought, However, that . some delay he useful, if not necessmy, in order. ..theni •sett opportunity of manifectinK their sentitnentS.; and if then the objections •r c i the Measure • came 'from .I.:lw4y.Crii only, itC ;,1,41, , ,1 no longer oppo:ic it. l'ho Right Hon: awl ...trned Gentleman. then ativerted to the ukillie rOaS evil eoto,:tittellCCS tvll4-.lt had alre,i.dy i-csulted Profit thevsuccessfal attempts tn evade, the law. of responsibility in land eat'r.ag' ; and by which • till £Urttilintt felnale servants, anti' other poor iodivi duals) had been deprived of 'their, all, because they had neglected to eeter their paraels . at the, coach-ollice, as being of Upwards 4'5/. in, value, In that case it encouraged the ,so rvants maters , of -mail-coaches to lmi paer passen: . .;ers, as they knew their intisters, 011 they, depeeded for. . support., would not be auswe.rable ;. and thcretreet of the present Bill wonicl be to e"ticOtiragev it dmtAcilanaster of a 1.65e1. to rho 1113 ship against kill tie<3 v05e1.3,1,e..510-.).11t1 meet in his , conrsa. lie Merely to 6061 chity iillUttl*t theHoene , and as one of the 1 ' 4441 ' .4444.0 f tlic if the .

He was convinced that unless some :inch measure as the preStnit svas mloptcd, nu of the most respectable ship-owners would >rithdissy themselves from that'. c , flintierce. The strongest argument, howev-r, ill his mind for thls measure was, thati,he whole of the shipping intei . est were fur it. . , ir. tirtiArtroN also supp. - krted the Bill. Arr. BARtNG did not think it of much import:lnce whether it should poss or not. Sir Ai. lit RLKY waS in fa,vour °lithe TYII. Mr. "I Was sure that no ship-owner could or would Object to the Bill.

It was most essential to.relieve'ship-owners who. bad ouly a share in a vessel, from' complete ruin, which., as the law now stout!, WaS perpetually banging over them. Mr, SHAW (of Dublin), and Mr. limt,arttur (of Kerry) were also in favour of the Bill. 11 The then went into a .
