THE COURT of DIRECTORS of the UNITED COMPANY of MERCHAiVY'S of ENG4AND,Trad ing to the East Indies, do hereby give Notice, That a GENERAL COURT of the said Company wa Le held at their House in Leadenhall-street, on Tuesday next, the 9th in t. at Eleven o'cic.ek in the Forenoon, on spec:::: it.elMSelY, Sec. necessary to go to America to procure these ` cer tificates 5 ' they are to be purchased at Most of the . sea ports of'the United Kingdom. The crews of American vessels are not only entered on the cer tified list,' but are also furbished with these inks vidualprotections; frequently in duplicate, and even Triplicate ; they are offered for sair.s. to British sea men the age and description are altered and erased to suit those of the purchaser ; a ceremony however, which 'is, not always observed, as it is by no means uncommon for a man with blue eye: and sandy hair, to carry about with him a `-cola lector's certificate', describing a mulatto, ' If to the vast number of protections thus issued' from the American custom-houses, with so little caution and withotit any proof, be added the nna merous forgeries of this kind of documents il:n4 the protections that are granted by the American Consuls and Vice-torisuls, and Notaries Public,, it is not surprising that English seamen, in the dis guise of Americans, should be met with in almost every English vessel that navigates the ocean. We have partly the means of ascertaining the extent of the injury Sustained by Great Britain from the profuse supply of the doeunisnts we have been describing. We have seen a collector's certificate' of • Philadelphia bearing - inumber above 20,000, and one 'of New-York • exceeding 12,000; of Roston above 8,000. We should wt. (ferrate the other ports collectively at 40,000 - more; and-taking into the account the forged Certificates, the duplicates and triplicates, the , 'certificates of Consuls and Notaries, we are . certainly withi bounds in estimating the outstanding number of protected' American seamess 'at 109,000. What proportion of these may bel . ;yeal .Ameri-2an.nctire seamen ; or born of Araericiin settlers, it would b difficult to determine. The whole tonnage of Great Britain in the merchant and transport ser vice employs • about 120,000 Men. To allow to America one-third of this slumber would probably be allewing . her too much ; but to keep within bounds, we will admit it to be. one half there still remain 40,G00 British seamen navigating mer chant ships of our own and neutrals, under cover of American protections. It appears from a correspondence that took place between Monroe and the Secretary of State in 1804, that about one one-fourth part taf those seamen, 'whose: discharge from the British Navy had been applied for bx the Consul at va rious times, " had produCed satisfactory proofs of American . citizenship ; the remaining three-fourth were rea4 British seamen. Taking the ,number as nominal Americans serving in the navy at 4;000, which we understand is beyond the calculation, we cannot on these data reckon the number of Ameri cans serving in the British navy at morethan 1,000.. If this statenent be correct we are injured in a . forty-fold p! - q..tion to America, by the effact the `Act of C'ongress for the relief .and protection,. of American seamen'.' It would be little short of . madness then, we repeat, and an act of political suicide, to give up our right of search for Britiih seamen, and to admit the American flag to pro tect all those sailing under it. We - have heard indeed, that it has been more than once suggest ed, by the American Government, that some com promise or modification of . the exercise of this right might be devised,which should, equally with t he actual search itself, 'secure the object of re taining to Great Britain the services of all her' seamen. If the American Government has any such arrangenaeut to propose, there will, of course, be no indisposition on the part of this country to examine it. But we cannot forbear to express our extreme apprehension that the sbstitution of any other less simple mode of enforcing this Mi.- doubted right would be found to multiply the op.- portunities of evading it. 'We protest against any scheme of paper security, any accurnu.ation of certificates and of oaths, of which we have but too much already, And seeingnootherthetbas been, EAST-INDIA 7 7HOUSE, • i 21fay 27, : 1312.
