THE MEamAin.—The so long disputed exist- Ence of this wonderful animal is at length proved beyond the shadoW of .a doubt. It is now in a vessel in the East ludia Docks, and it is ru moured that the Revenue Officers have already had a peep. We understand it to be sent over as a present to an eminent medical Gentleman, and we have no doubt he will ,ratify the Public with a sight of it. The attraction of such an exhibition can only be equalled by that of the Nine Prizes of `21,000/. in the New Lottery, Three of which will be decided in the first Five Minutes, 2',d instant. The Corporation of Ipswich have in their-pbs-- session on original letter, in the hand-writing of General MONK, the restorer of CHARLES the 2d and afterwards created Duke of Auet MAIIrE. It IS dated on board the Resolution, August 5, 1653, directing the Bailiffs to: provide for the sick and wounded seamen in. the Fleet of the Commonwealth under' his comet. rid, on their arrival at that port. " The grand points :now remain to be considered ; the ef— fect which the encouragement given to the importation front • the British Colonies has had on our manufactures and ship ping, as compared With thitse of Norway and Sweden, for it appears the trade o MI Russia and Prussia has increased, the former very much. -It appears from the beginning to have bee' a favourite object of the Committee to ;retitle duties re-. moved at all events, and fur that purpose, they state.' I bat the demand for Wood from the countries in the north of .Europe, has been progressively diminishing, so as to occasion great interruption - to the 'trade with these countries, particularly with Norway, whose inhabitants, notwithstanding the predilection they have uniformly shewn for British manu factures' arc taut only left without there rw coliming them, but of paying . far those, the-pflayF • itkeive and in another place they say Th ree can- e little doubt . that any material dimi►iution the duties an foreign ' timber would almost immediately lead to an increased dr . ma►►d of that article for most t►u►poses of building, ami . enable the countries which rodure ;t, but more especially Sweden and Norway, very greatly to,increase their consiunp ' lion of British pro duce. As this circumstance, however, could not - take place without diminishing the demand for colonial timber, it must in some degreeaffeet the profits of the capital now vested in saw-mills, & c . in C ana d a t o th e ' - amount of 100,0001. or 130,0001. It could nut be consider ' ed as directly affecting the interests of the Canadian land " hOlder, &c.' So that, from this reasoning, we are to under stand the Committee to be of opinion, that, to encourage the consumption qf our manufactures by Norway and Sweden, the duties are to be taken off, though 'gradually, and thus nearly iv exclude the timber of the colonies, only occasioning a loss of 150,0001, to those engaged in .saw-mills, and little affecting the landholder in Canada, and probably throwing 8 or •10,000 . British seamen, and a proportionate quantity of shipping, out of emplopuent. "Before I proceed to point out thelnipolicy:andabsurdityof such reasoning, I shall just beg the reader to refer to 1f and the other speeches (inserted yesterday), when he intro ducelitthe subject of the duties, and to relict for a moment on the different feelings of the.parties ; the first in a state of war, anda he Select Committee in profound peace. I submit, that the observations of the Select Committee are not-borne out by the accounts annexed to their own Retort ; and that the importation of timber and deals from the North of Europe has nut declined more than was contemplated by 19r. Rose when be introduced the system of the duties: and that the decrease of importation from - Norway and Sweden has been mainly owing (according to Mr. 13orthwick, one of the most intelligent witnesses examined by the Committee) to the duty on dealt being charged. by the hundred of deals instead of the cubic contents ; and those of Norwly being of sum!l size, the merchants have resorted, more than formerly, 'to those . markets where the large sized deals are to be .had, viz. the Baltic Ports of Russia and Prussia. ",!'he following extracts from accounts annexed to the Se lect Committee's Report will clearly prove that a fair propor tion of the timber imported into this Count ry, both for the 171st year and for an average of the last six years, has come from the North of Europe, and that it has not. beerCdeticient in quantity, though it may have been unproductive in price to the shippers:— from the Year 1814 'to 1819.

But w hikt we notice the quantity of limber from the Colonies fu ex ceed that imported from the North of Europe. nn an average of the last six years, we must particularly observe that the quantity of deals and • bait ens imported from. the North of Europe fur the same period of six years, is nearly ten times as great as the (if:amity received' during the •same period front the Colonies ! and even last year, the greatest of importation that was ever known from the- Colonies, the quantity of deals and battens front the North of Europe was still - nearly four times' as great ; so t hat, combining the quantities of timber :Ma deals, it is clear the Colonies have not had snore than the shale which it was originally intended .they should have in this trade ; and whilst on an average of six years, the quantity of deals Imported from the North of Europe is nearly ten times as great as that imported from the Colonies, it must. strike every one, who has British interests at heart, with as tonishment, to bear a Committee of Parliament gravely re coMmend measures for the destrnetion of- the property vested its the saw-mills, which produce that tenth. In order to front a fair, just, anal cot reet opinion of the value of any trade to Norway and Sweden, it. is -necessary to look not only at what the actual state of the imports ant exports are to the .cossontriet :sr: Aire North of Europe and to the British Americao, colonies, but also to what they have • been in times p:lsA,.arid to what extent thry may be reasonably expected to reach in future, and to consider also their respective stability and -proMsble permanency. Ac cording. to Anderson's History of Commerce, the imports from and exports to Denmark, Norway, and Sweden were as follows : Denmark and Norway. Imports. Exports. L. s. d.

Since the peace, the exportations to Norway for the last six years, as given in the Appendix to the Report of the Select Committee, average 119,3951. :I I 10, of which nearly One half is foreign - and colonial produce ; and .the. exports to SWeden, for the same six years, average 314,8601. :. 11 ; arid of Which more than one half is colonial and foreign pro duce... The average export of British manufactures to -Nor way arid Sweden both, for the last six years, does not notch exceed 200.001. per annum; and, by reference ludic extracts just given front Ander sdn's History of Commerce, the whole exports of 179.0, just a hundred years ago, including Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, were 840,0001. The barrenness of the soil, in Nor Way and Sweden, must ever keep elown the population ; and as they have nothing to offer iu ex change hot wood and iron, any material extension of trade with them is physically impossible. During the last six years, it appears, front the tables of the report of the Select Com mitfee, that the imports from Norway.and Seteden have been made in the_ proportion of three foreign tuns of shipping to one of British, viz. • • .• Denmark 1 • 17,8'34 50,872 1914 Norway 1 • Sweden iDenmark 2 28,329 150,044 1815 Norway .

Whoever reads Mr. Rose's speech, when the duties were laid, must be struck with'as tonishment, that none of those who introduced the subject of - their repeal into the Ilotise of Commons, as well as into the House of Loads,—neither Mr. Baring, nor Mr. Robinson in the former, nor the Nlartitiis of Lansdown or Lord Liver pool in ttic latter,—ever uttered one word as to the.inierest Of the colonies in the question. It has indeed betel at tempted to be shown that the Catmdianlandholder has no iii terest in the matter; mod notwithstanding Mr. Ellice has stated That the landholder in Canada gets little for the pine timber, he admits 'the oak timber and' stares are of greater imputtance and value, and that certainly some farmers en)-: ploy part of their time in . cutting wood during the winter.--- No persem has been examined, (Mr. Bainbridge being only an export merchant) on behalf ut the farmers, who in fact are the chief and almost the sole landholders of New Brom wich and Nova Scotia, althoogh 3-4tlis of the pfrielinehrr for some Yeats has come froth these provinces. But it is admit ted, that the landholder is interested in the valths of the oak, besides his labour, during the winter; and the calculation giveir is by the Committee.of be. state of the timber trade in January, 18.10Thf, Bin Appendiit, has-11. us.

Alter sue h aitatement, can it be said that the Colonists • are notinterested in this trade? The annual loss to them, in cost and labour, would be clearly:, front the accounts an, nixed to the Report 'of the Select Committee, 840,0001. ; to say nothing of Or capital in saw-mills, which is the least part of it. But who will calculate the loss which this country may sustain in good feeling arid attachment by such unkind treatment ? It is well hnown that in many. perhaps in most, instances, in clearing the land they burn the timber on ac coma of the difficulty of carriage, and hecause.it. is hut of late years that this country hos encouragekthem to ship it. Mr. Rose clear!o held this out to theirs as a permanent re source; and have they no ti;ht to ;look to you fur every fa cility in 'paying for their importS of your martufac,tures,' amounting on an average of the last six years'to per annum, besides rum, sugar, - ..ece. from the West India Co-' lonies,•to the amount of 300,9001. more, mating"altugether 2,709,4041. Sterling ? " 1 will not suppose, that this country worth). hold such language to them as Mr. Rose's, when the enemy was at our gates, and after they had exposed their prt . )perty fat us to be, burnt, and themselves to the tword ; - thae - then, when peace was made, and nu external danger threatened, that we w mid turn round upon them, amid deny then). ail -the reasonlble advantages they have a right to expect front this trade at our' hands, turd confer it on those who are ever ready to join our enemies, confiscate onr manufactures, and stop our supplies, when it suits their purpose. We have. a monopoly os their trade, no other flag is unfurled for them, nor dot they desire any other; only treat them with something like parental at fection alai a jtist reciprocity, and they wilt ever stand by us. So touch for the interest which the Colonists have in the question; I shall point out presently the interest which we have in promoting their presperity. "Our shipping and seamen' form theticxt most important interest, that would he affected by the measure cf adopting such a scale of ditties, as would deprive the ciihinists of a fair share of the supply of timber. It appears that the ship- - pitte, employed in the I rade' with the British North American Colonies, on an average of the last six years, amounts to 2.02,'47 torts, which, at the depredated rate of. shipping, is worth, 2,027,470. Now, the Select - Committee should consi der, that a British built ship is a British manufacture; that all the ships built in the river Thames are of English timber,. with the single egeeptiort of the decks, which are of Paittzic or Memel- det&; that of the fist cost of the hull the wood forms about one-half of time Value, and of that half the Is t-ign.deals at the most I•lCth ; the remaindeliii Comptised of timber, perba.ps'from the eitates of the elect Committee, with British labour-and Carriage added to the first cost ; the iron and copper, with copper - sheathing, • mahe tme4uterth tuttre, atid the lehont the other.
