We do not claim an exclusive supply of the Mother Country.
—The bulky nature of our exports are highly favourable to
British Navigation, and we do not wish for any alteration in
the Navigation Laws, nor any outlet for our produce other than
that which every part of the great and extended empire to
which we belong ought to furnish, to the other.
The present state of the Trade of the Mother Country, the
complaints from all the Colonies, and the great change in the
Calonial Trade which will result from the independence of
Spanish America, will, we have no doubt, before long, render
it necessary for the British Government to accommodate the
Commercial Regulations of the Colonies to existing circum-
stances. It is easy to foresee that they will approximate more
than heretofore to the principle of free trade, which has been
daily gaining proselytes among public men in England. The
restrictive system cannot, however, we should suppose, be en-
tirely abandoned consistently with national safety. It is one
of the evils of this system, that it sets up the interests of dif-
ferent parts of the empire against those of other parts of it, and
those interests that are the best supported frequently obtain
regulations tending to their particular advantage, the injury
of others, and of the whole empire.
In this Colony, till the questions connected with its trade are
finally settled, there is no safe course, but to return to those ha-
bits-of economy and patient industry on which a thriving trade,
resulting from long wars in Europe, has made great inroads ;
still remaining thankful that our ot and prospects are better
than those of almost any other country.
The Jamaica Address before referred to.
ST, JAOO DE LA VEGA, DEC. 22, 1821.—The following
Address to his Majesty passed the Hon. House of Assembly on
the 12th instant, and has been forwarded by the packet :

JAMAICA S 5. '
To TILE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY.

Pe Humble Petition of the Assembly of Jamaica.
" MI, your Majesty's dutiful and loyal subjects, the As•
sernbly of Jamaica, humbly present to your Majesty's consL=
deration a statement of the distresses which afflict this Colony,
and which, we cannot but apprehend., will increase to its
destruction, unless through your Majesty's paternal inter-
ference a timely remedy is applied. We lament the ne-
cessity of detailing grievances so lately complained Of,
but,, the pressure of unmitigated and unredressed suffer-
ing compels us to implore the Royal attention to interests
which, though remote, materially concern the national wel-
fare. The principal, staple commodity of the West Indies
(Sugar) is now reduced to a price so low as to be, in most in-
stances, inadequate to pay the duties to your Majesty's revenue,
the charges incurred in Great Britain; and the expences of cul-
tivation. The Planter, debarred from the hope of profit, sees
his industry requited by accumulating debt, and the prospect
of utter ruin to himself and his creditors. The present state of
the British market will ,rive the price of fifty seven pounds for
one ton of sugar of moderate quality. Of this sum twenty-
seven pounds are paid for customs, fifteen pounds are deducted
to defray the freight and other British charges, and the small
portion of fifteen pounds (not amounting to three elevenths of
the gross produce) remains to the Colonist, as the share to which
he is considered entitled, to reward his labour and risks, pay the
annual expences of his establishments, and the profit upon the
large fixed capital he necessarily employs. No assistance is
now affbrded by the manufacture of RUM, to defray the
yearly contingencies of a Sugar estate ; the market price of
that article being unequal to pay the cost of manufacture and
other expenses. An over-supplied market is, we fear, nut a
temporary but anal vancing evil. The importation of Sugar from
the East Indies for home consumption has for the last seven
years been increasing, and still continues to increase. Th
additional duty imposed upon Sugar imported from the East,
has been proved by experience to have been estimated upon
fallacious grounds, and not to have attained the object of full
protection to the produce of the West Indian Colonies. The
inhabitants of this island humbly press upon your Majesty's
attention the injustice towards the old Colonies of any inva-
sion of their rights to an exclusive trade to the mother country,
in the productions of their soil. By the colonial system esta-
blished by England, for her own aggrandisement, British ship-
ping and British seamen are exclusively employed in our com-
merce. No article of European growth or manufacture can be
purchased unless imported from the mother country, which ob-
tains the benefit of the carrying trade for our supply and
double freights, the Colonies being burthened with the increase
of charge. The whole of our produce is by the same system
sent in British shipping to the markets of,the mother country,
and a net revenue of three millions and a balf of duties on
Sugar alone is paid to support the Government. The value of
this intercourse is felt not only in what is received from the
colony, but in what, the colony makes the parent state produce
in the encouragement of her manufactures, the increase of her
population and the 'employment of her seamen. Are we not
entitled to an advantage in return of this code of prohibition,
restraint, and taxation? The privilege of exclusively supply-
ing the mother country with our staple commodities is the equi-
valent which has had the sanction of long time and mutual re-
cognition, and a ratification which has been designated as more
solemn than any which an Act of Parliament could confer.--
We see with dread the infringement of this compact. The
introduction of sugar from the cast is an innovation of compara-
tively small advantage, and much less is it indispensable to that
part of the empire, but it will insure the destruction of this.
The British. Colonies felt the injury of the Foreign Slave
Trade being still pursued with unabated ardour. The mar.
kets of the Continent are nearly engrossed 'by the produce of
Foreign Colonies cultivated by labourers cheaply procured from
Africa. And at the same time the continuance of the war du-
ties, and the insufficient drawback allowed upon the exportation
from Great Britain of Sugar,of the British West Indies, have
the effects of a bounty upon the cultivation of Foreign settle-
ments, and a check upon those of England.
Our supplies from the United States of America, of lumber
and provisions, which are essentially serviceable to aid the natu-
ral defects, or the failures of our climate and soil, are straitened
by the total interruption of that trade. The regulated and
limited commerce which the Laws of trade and navigation
permitted in British ships, is denied to us, by the re-
taliatory system of the United States. Provisions, the
growth of the United States, travel to us when introduced
by a double voyage, and at an opence unnecessarily en-
hanced. By this policy, the subjecta of your Majesty
are stinted in their supplies, and are taxed, while the bene-
fit is conferred on the ships of Spain and America, and on
Spanish ports. A new system of intercourse, upon the tasis of
mutual benefit, permitting the importation in American Sims
of the products of the United States, and the exports or our
staple commodities in return,. would afford an important relief
to the distresses of your Majesty's 'Colonies, and have the atl.
vantage of opening to British' ships a trade from WhiCh they
are now excluded; and it may not be irrelevant here to ob-
serve, that the Americans have a free trade for Sugar; to the
East Indies, while they are precluded taking any from us.
'The discouragement of our industry, our crippled resources,
the difrficulty of raising the means, in addition
.our large col*
tribution to the revenue of the Empire, for supporting ,the
troops ,sent for our demo, and for defraying the ouiber ex epees
of pair insular estahlishment, are grieynnees ihich-th,reaVno*
