'• By an Act of the 3d of March, 1816, so much of t►e se-
veral Arms/ imposed higher duties on the tuusiage of foreign
vessels, end we the esaustfactures and prisdnei ions of foreign
nations, when imported into the United Slates in foreign
weasels, than when imported in vessel's of the-United Slum
were repealed, an far aa respected the manufactures and pro-
ductions of the nation to which such vessel belonged, on the
condition that the repeal should take effect only in f of
any foreign nation, when the Esecative sliould be satisfied
that such diserimittatieg deities, to the disadvantage of the
United States, had likewise hero repealed by such natio..
By this Act, a proposition was made to all nativism to place
our commerce with each on a basis which, it was presumed,
would be acceptable to all. Every motion was allowed to bring
its manufactures and productions into our ports. and take
the manufactures aud.productiuns of the United States hack
to their ports, in their owa vessels, en the same condition that
they alight he transported in Treed* of the Veiled States ;
and, in return, it was required that a like semowsmodstiou
should be granted to the vessels of the United Slates is the
ports of other Pursers. The articles to be admitted or pro.
Whited us eithir side formed no part of t►e proposed ar.
