The following Petition from the Legislature of St. Christopher's was recently transmitted by a Committee of the Council and House of Assembly; to be laid before the House of Com mons : The humble Petition of His Majesty Council and House of Assembly of the Island of Saint Christopher, . . TO THE COMMONS OF THE UNITED' KINGDOM, IN PAR- LIA3IEN'T ASSEMBLED, Sheweth,—That the Voice of your Petitioners, the faithful echo of the sentiments of the inhabitants of this island, which upon former occasions has been raised in supplication to your Honourable House, now,itsstunes the language of despair. That the prayer ulyour petitioners has been suspended, under the hope that their representation and manifest disvess would have excited the attention and compelled the interference of your Honourable House in their behalf. That your Petitioners have with mournful fidelity heretofore represented the injustice and oppression which they, and the in terests they represent, have long endured ; and your Petitioners now declare to your Honourable House that the predicted crisis, the inevitable result arising from the neglect of their representa tion, is arrived. That evu.ry part of the empire, every other branch of indus try, has prospered under the wisdom of your protecting care, whilst this portion of the empire is advancing with rapid strides to that ruin which a mischievous system and abandonment to the visionary experiments of specious and interested projectors, cannot fail to consummate. That the evils which oppress your Petitioners must command immediate relief, or produce interminable ruin. That your Petitioners may not be silent under this ex pectation, lest they, - to whom important interests are con fided, should be considered as acquiescing in the measures which have laid them prostrate, and which have made them and their children familiar with the bitter evils of penury and want. That the struggle of your Petitioners is not now for restora tion to that prosperity which once smiled upon them, but for bread ; not for the acquisition of power, but in order that the knife may be averted from their throats. If they are to be sacrificed, let it not be expected that they are to be their own executioners ; if they are to fall, let them at least be prepared by converting their, plough-shares and prunning-hooks into weapons of defence. That this is no exaggerated pictUre of the existing distress and apprehension, is attested by the rapid re volution with which prOperty has 'seen transferred. Scarcely is an ancient name in possession of its patrimony ; and those who have been driven to the possession of it, find it an incum brance instead of payment. That the evils by which this desolation has been accom. plished - are the heavy duties to which the staple productions are subject, the peculiar pressure of the 4. per cent. impost, and the wild and intemperate machinations of those who con template that desolation with triumpharat and most unholy feelhigs. That your petitioners have only to refer to the journals of your Honourable House for the proof that the faith of Parliament is pledged to the abolition of the war duty upon sugar; that this duty has been drawn, not from the pocket of the consumer, but of the producer, during ten years of peace; And that. scale of duties, varying with the price, is the only fair mode of taxation. They have only to refer to their own palpable wretchedness as a claim upon the justice of your Honourable House, that this pledge be redeemed by the abolition of this duty alone, or by the modification suggested by the enlightened Report of a Committee , of your Ho nourable House. Can the consumption of sugar be in creased, so as to make any beneficial impression upon the MAO hogsheads for which, under great disadvantage to the revenue, a partial sale is now forced upon the Continent of Europe, and of which the residue is accumulating as a fund, which checks the industry and blasts the efforts of these Colonies ? your petitioners also bring under the notice of your Honour able House the peculiar hardship. to which they are exposed by the partial and oppressive impost of 4j per cent. on all their exported produce. By a principle, in contradiction to the prevailing liberality of his Majesty's Government, as well as to the wisdom of your Honourable House, this impost is con tinued to the most exhausted and impoverished Colonies; whilst Jamaica, with her internal resources, which make her independent of foreign supply ; and Trinidad, who hag lately been draining themselves, favoured islands of thousands of their labourers ; and the recent acquisitions of Demerara and Berbice, with their inexhaustible soil, are exempt from this fiscal duty : the wretched islands of this Government, and sonic others under the same sad influence, are exposed to its unequal operation. Your petitioners know not by what au.: thority this tax was imposed upon this island. They do not regard the departure from that which is alleged to be the ori ginal application of this fund. They complain of its burden as partial and oppressive ; as a check upon their anxious in dustry, and as preventing a fair competition in the market with more favoured colonies. If it be contended that it is the price of immunities granted by the. Crown, in what do, they consist ? ,What privileges'do these islands possess that are not enjoyed by their most prosperous neighbours ? It is at least incumbent upon those who permit the tax, to shew that the colonies which are subject to it have advantages which are denied to those who are not. But your petitioners humbly submit that they enjoy no privileges that are not the birthright of every Briton. That they ought at least to be allowed to go into the market as unlettered as their more prosperous neighbours, and that the injustice and impost are too manifest to require further elu cidation. And your petitioners moreover complain, that the Act 4 Geo. 111. ch. 15, whereby a duty •of 11. is laid upon every tun of wine of the growth of the 51adeiras, imported into these colonies, which is to be paid into the receipt of his Majesty's Exchequer, and together with other duties of the said Act imposed to be entered separate and apart front all other monies paid or payable to his Majesty, and to be there secured, to be from time to time disposed of by Par liament towards defraying the necessary expences of defend ing, protecting, and securing these colonies, is at variance with the Act of 13 Geo. 111. c. 12, whereby it was declared " that the King and Parliament of Great Britain will not impose any duty, tax, or assessment whatever, payable in any of his Majesty's colonies in the West Indies, except only such duties as it may he expedient to impose for the regulation of commerce, the net produce of such duties to be 'always ap. plied to the use of the colony in which the same shall be levied, in such manner as other duties collected by the autho rity of the General Assemblies of the colonies are ordinarily paid." It was scarcely to be expected that that which was so solemnly abandoned in principle should be upheld in practice. And that . the Parliament, renouncing injustice for the future, should tolerate, sanction, and Continue that which was already framed and organized. Anti your petitioners further repre sent, that this duty, which ought to have been reserved for the exclusive benefit of this colony, should be considered as ample indemnity already in the King's Exchequer (if indeed indemnity can be expected for such an injustice) for the 4i per cent. duty. • That your petitioners approach the remaining subject of their complaint with full confidence that the energy of your honourable,llouse will for ever put 'down within its walls, the attempt which is so covertly, but so. successfully Contributing .toy , that result which must exterminate one class of his' Majesty's subjects in these. colonies,. and familiarize the other with all the-barbarities of savage life. Upon this subject your peti tioners exercise the privilege of speaking openly—they at once acknowledge the paramount authority, as by law established, of the King's Government, administered by responsible . ser vants, 'and of a responsible Parliament. Ant, if these colonie4 • were the victims of a power which is recognized by the Consti tution, they could only deplore in silence that they. are deprived of those blessings, and of that equal justice which their. happy form of government promised to all. But your petitioners protest against their tbrtunes, their character, their safety, being.abatidoned to the controul of an ascendant party, which is composed of some noblemen of the highest rank, of several well-intentioned, and of many obscure and crafty individuals, a party which, as it seems to your petitioners, has been allowed upon all subjects of colonial policy to have a fatal influence on the decisions of his •Majesty's Government, and even upon the deliberate wisdom of your Honourable House, and which still urges on, in despite of the streams. of blood-which it has made to flow, its rash and relentless measures, so as to defeat the be nevolent purpose which your petitioners entertain, and hereby to retard or frustrate the moral and religious improve ment of the slave, which can alone qualify him for the entire possession of his civil rights—a party,- which in scornful allusion to the calumnies which it propagates, has designated the slave as its friend aad brother, and has placed itself in PkrcE SEVENPF;NCr. , • merciless and unchristian hostility to' the more unfortunate master, and which, in its . display of cheap benevolence towards, one Class .of men, has deviated from the •principles of common justice towards another. Your petitioners lay out of yotit consideration all those circumstances which the highest legal . opinion would authorise them to urge. They do not rely upon : those facts, which no man can deny," that the personal slavery arising out of forcible captivity, is co.etial with the earliest pe , riods of our history of manlcinw that it Is found existing, and, as far as it appears, without animadversion, in the earliest and authentic records of the human race. That it is recognised by the codes of the polished nations of antiquity. That under the light of Christianity itself, the possession of persons so acquired. has been in every civilized country invested with the character of property, and secured as such by all the protections of law. That solemn treaties have been . framed, and national monopti , lies eagerly sought, to facilitate and extend the commerce in this assorted property, and all this - With all the sanctions of laW,. public and mitnicipal, and without any opposition except the . protests of a few privateirimitrists; little heard and less attend ed to in every country till within these very few years in the mother country of,your petitioners. Suth consideratietrefroni such authority, undeniable as they are, form no part of the case of your petitioners. They will labour with the most zealous of their adversaries to obtain the object in view, not indeed with the rude rash hand that would immolate when it professed to save; But as their present legislatiVe labourers attest, by every cau tious, safe, and practicable measure which-shall qualify the slave for the enjoyment and full participation . of his civil rights. But your petitioners h av i ng b een deceived, 'are entitled, they humbly contend, to provide against further-deception. The party, nay the very individuals, within the walls of your Ho., nourable Douse, who advocated the cause of the abolition in the detestable traffic in human beings, paved the• way to their honourable success by a declaration that the ,emancipation of those already in• bondage formed no part of their project. That which was then stoutly denied, is now as openly avowed. Nor do your petitioners complain of that avowal ; but heavy as the claims are upon their forbearance, and great as are their sa , crifices, it will scarcely be expected that they shouldconfide in those who have thus abandoned their solemn prOfesSions:— The same individuals now call upon the nations •to effect the emancipation of the West Indian slave, • and their, ,proposal is qualified by the eq u it a bl e con di t i on o f full indemnity to every interest that may be injured thereby. Your petitioners cheer , ' fully accede to the prOposal; but they pray your Himonrable House that they may net be made the instrument of-accom plishing this desirable object, by the surrender of their prO, perty, which, wretched as it is, has been the tolerated, the • approved, the encouraged object of law, and sa n c ti one d b y a ll the security that can be given to interests of the highest and. most respected character. That your petitioners,' though shackled with the extreme wretchedness of connexion with' Wrest India property, will not submit to the imputation of any • degradation therefrom. That they are alive to the same ho nourable feelings, the same nior a l obli ga ti ons ,. th e satre'Sense of religious duties, which their adversaries assume as the un , notural foundation of their enmity. Your petitioners therefore pray your Honourable House, that the duty upon their exports may be regulated by the scald as suggested by the Co mm itt ee ' o f your Honourable House. That this exhausted' colony may be relieved from the partial impost of the 4f per cent. duty. That the sum which has been levied upon Madeira wine imported into this island, ever since the declaratory Act of the 13th Gen. NI. ch. 12. May be dis posed of by Parliament towards the defence, protection, and se• curity of this colony; being the objects 'for which the said duty was originally imposed; anti that the interests of this country may not be abandoned to any authority of influence which the constitution does not recognise. And that rd alienation of' property in this island may be sanctioned, brit On the principle of full and fair indeminity to every interest that may be - in , jured thereby. . And your petitioners shall ever pray, &e. (Signed) - JOHN W. D. WILSON, President of the Council.. VV.

Many young and old think it a high piece of wit to invent toasts which modesty blushes to repeat; but, Wisdom says, our own vices are too touch for us, without endeavouring to corrupt the minds a nd mora l s o f every one around us ; and, therefore, whatever these tine gentlemen May think of them, selves, they ever were, and ever will be, the pests of society, and contempt of wise men. Let them use the following toasts; if they do not serve to mend their morals, they will, at least ; mend their manners t— • • 1. May the Kitag live long that seeks his people's love. 2. May liberty never make us licentious, nor restraint ever make us sad. 3. May we never seek more libert, than constitutes our hap. piness_ , nor more feed= than tends to public good. 4. May We never desire plenty, but to relieve the .unhappy and succour the distressed. 5. May we be happy enough to find friends, but never so miserable as to put them to a severe_trial. 6. May we be more ready to correct our own faults than to publish the faults of others. -7. May we never be such slave's to custom as to take one step in vice, tbr the fear of being unfashionable. 8. May we never rashly believe the reports we hear, 'nor hastily censure the man we hear not. 9. May we never be so far misled as to think a rich man wise merely for his wealth. 10. May we never be so extravagant as to •beggar ourselves from being ashamed of poverty; nor so covetous as to live beg gars for fear of being poor. 11. May the better fortune of others never put us out of con. ceit with our own. 12. May we never speak what-we are ashamed to repeat, nor do that which we may blush to hear repeated. 13. May we always be assured that happiness is a jewel not to be purchased by all the Sovereigns in the world. 14. May envy like a* bubble, burst, and merit shine. 15. .May every one's conduct be so unit:oTM that he may not be ashamed to take a retrospective view of it. RICHARD TURNER, Blacking Manufacturer, 114, London Road, Southwark. ExcisE LicEmsEs.;---By an Act passtql in the last Session of Parliainent, relative to Excise.licenses„ it, i 3 enacted, " That every person in the United Kingdom required by any law of Excise to make entry of his or her.premises; to carry on any trade or business in which an 'ExcNe license is - re. , quired, shall place, in letterS visible and legible, at least' dhe inch - long, upon the entered premises, his or her, name at full. length, and, after, such trade or business for which the license has been granted ; and if any such person shall not preserve and keep the same so, painted as often as necessity shall re• quire, he or she shall forfeit for every such offence the sum of 201." NEWIIAVENT.—Thp following account of this singular village is extracted from an Edinburgh Paper, in which it appears, accompanied by some remarks on the -supply of the fish market of the Scotch metropolis :—" It is pretty well known that the inhabitants of this village are a peculiar people, and that their race is preserved pure and uncorrupted by. con. stant inter-marriages. There is only one instance of a New haven man marrying out of his own' sept ; but his - wife, durirg his life time, was treated as an interloper by the other villagers, and even yet, now that she is a widow, ho one of them will exchange a word with her, though; Yor her husband's sake, they have adopted his children into their community. They 'tena ciously adhere to the ancient mode of fishing, practised by their forefathers, rejecting 'all modern improvements, by which fishermen are enabled to catch fiSli of the first quality at a great depth; and hence, though our market is abundantly supplied at all times, we have few prime fish, with the except ma of-had docks. Turbot here is the greatest of rarities, and so little known, indeed, by the generality of people, that halibut is often imposed upon them for it: yet there is abundance of turbot in the Firth, more especially towards its mouth. Then, the New havenershave a practice of emigrating in a body to the herring fishery about this season of the year: and, as a consequerse, n o white fish is to be seen in the market for weeks together." .1. W. Ilirle was on Thursday' last brought by Habeas Cotpui, from Portsmouth, in custody of the :Marshal ofthe Admiralty, and committee to take his trial at the Ad- miralty Sessions, charged with felony, while acting as Purser of the Tartar frigate, which ship was employed on the coast of South America. It appears that the prisoner has been many months under arrest, and was sent home in a sloop of war.-- Tee precise precise nature of his offence is not -known, but it is said to relate to som e f a l s ifi cat i on of hit accounts. „ .
