By Order, DANIEL MASON, Secretary. L IVERPOOL DOCKS , ----Provisions of New Act _ of Parliament. The Dock Trustees think it right to intimate to the Commer cial Public that the New Dock Act has come into operation, and contains the following additional provisions with reference to general management. Imported goods left on the Dock Quays longer than 48 hours after landing, and goods for Export or other purposes remaining on the Quays so as to cause obstruction, may now (as was before the case with respect to Timber) be removed and warehoused by the Trustees, and can be restored to their owners only on the pay ment of expenses, and in case of default there is a power of sale for recovering such expenses. This additional remedy is, more over. not to affect the former law as respects penalties. All vessels are now required to keep such a quantity of cargo or ballast on board as to enable them to be forthwith removed in safety, in case of accident, or when required for despatch of business. Penalty £SC. The Harbour and Dock Masters have now also the power of and in case of neglect may themselves remove the same, charging directing the removal of vessels in a Dock, or from one Dock to another, and their position, loading and discharging therein, the owners with the expenses. Vessels e s dues paid, or damages satisfied. Under former Acts the Shipowner had a lien f or f re i ght on .ons damagingwhich a Dockny to tonnage o works, r may other now dues be may detained be until and goods discharged into the Dock Warehouses, in the same manner as if they had remained in the ship, but doubts have been enter tained whether this privilege extended to any other his lawful claims of lien, such as for salvage, jettison, and in cases of dis puted rights of property, &c. This doubt is now removed, to the considerable benefit of Shipowners. The Harbour and Dock Masters are now protected in the exe cution of their duty, by the imposition of a penalty of ,elO on all persons obstructing or impeding them, or disobeying their lawful orders, or using abusive or offensive language. Additional powers have been given for facilitating the collection of Dock Dues, and preventing evasion. The 60th and 125th Sec tions of the Customs Act of 1853, providing for the delivery to the Collector within fourteen days next after the discharge inwards, and the clearance outwards, of all vessels at Liverpool, correct lists or manifests (in the former case), and transcripts of mani fests (in the latter case), comprising full particulars of all free goods imported or exported, are now repealed as respects the Customs, and re-enacted in the Dock Act, with the addition of being extended to all goods, whether dutiahle or free. It will be necessary, therefore, to take notice, that from and after this day all such lists, &c., are to be deposited, not at the Custom-house, as heretofore, but at the Dock Office, and it is requested that th e y may be so deposited at the " Che c k Office," on the ground floor of that building, where they are now examined by clerks expressly appointed to such duty. The penalty (.e2O) for not duly deliver ing such lists, &c., is also made to attach, not, as before, to the wilful evasion only of such du es , b ut to any neglect or omission to pay them, and may be enforced as well against principals in houses of business as their clerks or servants, and the magistrate on the hearing of any complaint is empowered to call for the production of cargo books, bills of lading, or other documents relating to the cargo of any ship mentioned in•such complaint.—By order of the Dock Committee, DANIEL MASON, Secretary.
