It will hardly be contended, ilea in the erection if Light Howes on the British coast, there was any other view than the bewefit of British nattier, lino, or that the cosiveMeece and safety of the foesigner, except when emeriti( our ports fur the purposes of trade, was an object iss contrinolatiou;-11, therefore, in pasaM4 along the sea, foreign sit/lotion may ioridentally demise an sdvautnge from them, which it is out of our puree to , withhold, it dues not seem to •ffurd a eery saiisfaetogy plea for taking the opportunity of sed.jecting it, whenever brought within our power, to a severe taxation, at once heavy in mount, enforced by &Initial, and aggravated by Oil exac tion of a prospective and retrospective payment, which has the effect of determining foreign ships from entering our ports for sheht r, except in caws of extreme necessity, amid been the cause of their being frequently exposed, not only to damage .n.I peril, but occasionally to the destrurtihn of the vessel, lied the sacrifice of the lives of awe who we: e unfortunate enough to be or board.
