SHIP-OW NiftitS. PETITION of SHIP-OWNERS, of GREAT _ MOUT 11, against RECIPROCITY of, DUTIES Diu,. [PRESENTED TO THE' HOUSE OF COMMONS, JUNE 27.] A Petition of the Ship-owners of the town and port of Great Yarmouth, in the county of Norfolk, was presentell, and read ; setting forth, That : the Petitioners find that a Bill is in pro gress in the House, to authorize his Majesty, by Order iii Council, to declare im the importation or exportation of mer diandize in foreign vessels may take place upon - the, payment of the like dutiesoind with the like drawbacks, bounties, and allowances, as aro payable or granted upon similar merchandise when imported or exported in British vessels' from or to coun tries in which no other duties are charged, or dra*backs, bounties, and allowances, granted on the importation c: ex portation of merchandise in British vessels, than are charged or granted upon such merchandise when imported or . exported in vessels of such countries ; that the petitioners view this measure with most serious, and they believe, a-Well-founded alarm as involving in it a complete alteration in that part of our alarm; Code, which since the reign of King Charles the Second has protected the British Ship-owner in the carrying trade between this kingdom and foreign countries, a protection most important and necessary to their prosperity, if not to their very existence, to which their trade is justly entitled, on the principle that allows it to other trades, and• to the agricalturist, and which is now recognized by the House, in the imposition of an additional duty on Willa, ostensibly to preserve the growers of kelp in this country from a ruinous competition; that the Petitioners conceive, that should that Bill pass into a Law, a very large decrease in the British tonnage engaged in the Centinental trade will immediately take place, increasing the great injury now felt by the Ship-owner by the unemployment of his vessels, or, if forced into employment by their engage ments at freights not commensurate with the expenditure of capital, in their outfit, manning, anti navigation, consequences inevitably reducing in value British Ships, which, the Peti tioners. apPrehend, have since the peace suffered a deterioration of not less than 110 per cent. ; that the Petitioners consider that the selection hitherto made of British vessels will be seriously . reversed, when the present protection is withdrawn, inasmuch ' as it can be clearly established to the House, that their original cost of construction most materially exceeds that of Foreign Ships, chiefly arising from the heavy Duties paid in this coun try on foreign timber, hemp, canvas, and miser articles, neces sary in the•equipment of vessels, from which other nations are for the most part exempt, and that Foreign Ships are manned and navigated at an half less than British' Ships,. which ad vantages in the scale of the foreigner, will enable him to over come the predilection for English vessels, by taking freights at a rate which would insure a remuneration to the former, though the latter must at the same freight incur a loss; that the asser tion that the British Ship-owner can compete with, foreigners, though a reciprocity of duty takes place, appears - to the Peti tioners to be incorrect, from the abore circumstances, of the extra cost of vessels built in this country, and the high ratenf wages paid to our mariners, and the expellees of their living, when compared with the wages and expences of foreign itta= men, a consideration which shows that the British Shipping cannot experience the benefits suggested to attend the p ro p osed reciprocity, whilst the Owner is restrained from furniihing hiin self with ships in' other countries, froni navigating theM with foreign sailors, and victualling them in foreign ports ; and in making this statement, the Petitioners are fully aware Of the superior skill and enterprise of the British Shipping interests; but which will be rendered nugatory by the countervailing abi lity of Foreign Vessels to sail attt ower rate of freight; thit the Petitioners further submit, that the meature holding . out advantages to other countries, will give; ,an impulse to foreign adventure, and 'increase the number of their ships, and thns (even if it is admitted that the shipping of all nations are in a state of reciprocity) induce a much larger comyetition, to the manifest injury of this the greatest of 41 maritime States, anti the partite most Materially interested in the'consideratiOn ; adtl to evince that the protection hitherto enjoyed by British Ship ping-has been called' for by the extra expence of their cost and navigation, Ind has essentially abridged eompetitiOn, the Peti tioners beg to submit, first, a Statement oftheDutiei on articlit employed in the building and equipment of ships ; and, se- - cendly, a Statement of the excess of Duties on some of the 'many articles (on which "duties are attached) when imported hi foreign.bottoms, and the rates of freight now payable on such articles on importation by British Ships, in many instances lest than such excess of duty : • First.--.

Bahia, dated April di and (iS, assure us, that the fate of the Brazils, as an In- dependent State, was on the point of being de cided. The reinforcements sent out by the King of PgaTtram, had arrived there, and Lord COCHRANE was on the coast, with his squad ran; concerting the best means of making an instant and decisive attack. Commodore Sir 'hips. HARDY had collected the greater .part of his squadron at Bahia l for the protection of British property during this revolutionary conflict. " BAHIA, APRIL 213..1823. " Lord CoctinAxix is arrived n 600: fifty miles to the north ward of this place, no doubt holding communication with the General of the Braziliim army, •and ooncerting measures for. attacking Bahia. The army is encamped not more than five miles from the city. Mud banks are thrown up, and fortified, in the outskirts of the town, but the largest gun I saw was a six-pound brass field piece. Were it not for the strong natural protection, the place 'would be *tied in a few hours. They have entrenchments, also, at some'distance in the front of these temporary fortificatious. The feelings of the inhabitants of Bahia are decidedly favourable to the Brazilian cause; in deed, the subjugation of the place is greatly to be desired, for many reasons, but 'principally as it streets our Ciuumer eial interests ; for there Is at present a complete stagnation of trade. " The agitated state of public affairs has stagnated every description of .commerce. it is said, that the mercantile inte rest of Great Britain has already . suffered a loss amounting to 200,0001.'at Bahia alone. Most of the English merchants have left 'the place for Rio, and many Brazilians, in embarrassed circumstances, have Openly espoused the cause of the existing Lievertunent, leaving their creditors no effects. There is now considerable English preperty at Bahia, 'which cannot be dis posed of in any way, that has already paid a duty of 151. per tent. The owners have offered to take it to Rio ' and to pay there 7iper cent. more duty ; but , the Bra Allan government will not allow it to be landed unless the whole duty, is paid, which the prOperty will not afford. There is, at this Moment, ro at .
