WAREHOUSING ACT.

•
Yesterday another Meeting took place of the
Merchants of ',Miami upon this subject.
Sir C. Putc,E took ,the Chair. He. stated that
it was with great sorrow that he had to inform
the -Meeting, that conferences which their Com-
mittee had held with the Lords of the Treasury;
had not been productive of the effect- that they
hoped and expected. The Lords of the TreaSnry
informed, them, that no sufficient grounds had
been laid before them to induce them to change
their opin;on. it he alone hat! waited on the
Lords of the Treasury, -he should suppose that
this disappointment prodeeded from hit want of
ablity but the Report which would be read to
them, would satisfy the Meeting that the Gentle-
men of the„Committee had urged all those argu-
ments that naturally presented. themselves on this
impot,tant question. They had been received with
rather a cold reserve ; and it seemed as if Mini-
sters did not consicler them as representing the
Merchants at large, but rather as deputed by a
small portion of Merchants interested in the ques-
tion. It would therefore be necessary, by the
number and respectability of .signatures, to thew
that,the Committee had really spoken the sense
of the great body of the Merchants ,of the City of
London.

The Report of the Committee was then read.—
It was of very considerable length, and stated not
only what had taken place at the conferences be-
tween the C9mMittee and the Lords of the Trea-
sury, but contained a great variety of arguments
to shew the necessity of preserving the warehous-
ing system as it had been established for many
years. It stated the necessary accumulation of
impurti for many years past, as a return for ma-
nufactures exported. If. all this accumulation were
now forced to a premmure sale or to an imme-
diate exportation, the consequences might be ab-
solutely ruinous to the merchants. The timethat the
Trt:!Asit y intended to allow for exportation was only
to the 14th Of next month ,and it was Iva known that
the inid‘iie Of winter was not the time that mer-
chants would naturally wish to f.2xport their goods,
particularly to northern ports. It was considered
by the COM tnittee 'tliat a sysem'which hail so long
been._ in force, and which had made this country
the emporium of the trade_of Europe, ought not
to be destroVed• on so short a notice as had been
given. It was not about the payment of the du-
ties the merchants of London had to_contend,
but the preservation of the Warehousing .Systens,

We have just received Brussels Papers to the
Gth, irom• which the following are the chief ar-
ticles of intelligence :
OcT. 23.—0 n the return of the Mo-
narchs from Ofen they will visit the fortress of
Conlon), traverse the Isle of Schutt, and arrive at
Presburgh on the 28th. 'We do not know how
Long they intend to remain at that City ; but there
will be a splendid Fete, and afterwards a grand
Hunt at Holets& on the frontiers of Hungary
and Moravia.
We are assured that the Prussian General de
GAunt has been named Governor of Dresden.
We are assured the 31inisters of the various
powers interested have at length agreed to act
upon the state quo with regard to Italy and Pop
land. It is with reference to this basis that they
will determine the cessions, indemnities, and
new acquisitions.

Extract of a Letter from Ghent, Nov. 3.

" About the end of September another ves-
sel might be expected to • sail from America
with Dispatches for the Ministers of that Country.
then-receive ulterior, instructions , and
details upon the spirit which ought to-prevail in
the Congress. The Federal Party, it is said, i 3 most-
favourable to peace; the Party which is designated
by the appellation of Democratic, wishes for war.
The two Partici differ upon the point whether
concessions ought to be made for the attainment
of peace, or whether the most vigorous measures
should be resorted to in order to repel ag-
gression Of which they are the .common vietims."
VIENNA, UcT. 22.--It is stated in a positive
manner, that the Low Countries united .will -form
a State bearing the name of the Kingdom of Bel-
gium (Royaume de la VelgiqUe):.

It is affirmed more.thlu ever that the re-establish-
ment of Poland as a •KingdOm., under the Grand
Duke CONSTANTINE, meets with insurmountable'
obstacles. Austria,which has always been hostile to -
this project, has succeeded in convincing France and
England that it menaced the equilibriuu -of Eu- .
rope.—Nothing might prevent the Grand Duke
uniting, at some future period, the Crowns of
Russia and Polaiid. This rti.ouarchi of 150,000,000

of souis, might trusn AteArta aut: t-t ;r:
its coliossal rwcr ; it might extend its—pteten-
sions and influenee over every people speaking
dialects of the Scla,Yonian tougue—ripper Si-
lesia,Bohemia, tipperliongAry, Servia, antfeven
Illyria might hereafter be joined, by the tie Of .a
similar origin, to this vast Empire. It is infinitEly
more probable, that the Duchy WarS/rw slio"uld
form it Wale kingdom, under the te,pectable
King of SAKONY, or under some other Ger-
man Prince. Austria and Prussia would thus
be covered te a certain extent from Russia,
and would, in turn, preserve the iudependence of
this New Poland, es great as it w4s before the
reign of BOLESLAS I. They bzgin to turn their
eyes upon the Archduke CHARLES, as a person
:most proper to wear this new Crown, mind in fa-
vour of tvhoniustria would, perhaps, make some
sacrifices.
Lord CASTLEREIGH and Prince TALLEYRAD
have sent Couriers to their Courts for instructions
on many.important points. These Couriers will
set out on their return before the end of the

Never was the Austrian force so great as at this
moment : it amounts to 520,000 men of all anus.
BEaLIN, Oc•r.2s.—Since the arrival of the last
Courier from Vienna, the taking possession of
the Countries ceded to us in.conse►luence of the
'Congress is no longer doubtful ;. already leave
considerable military and civil arrangements been
made, and w•e daily expect a declaration from our
Court upon this subject."

We have no time for further extracts from these
important Papers This day.

No further French Papers have come to hand
since our last publication. We notice not,
of course, some column or twain.oi Neapolitan
news which appears in a Morning Paper : after
the clear and undenied conviction of that Print
for the publication of forged letters, which ap-
peared in THE Sox of yesterday, it would be
worse than stolidity to employ a thought upon
any fabricated trash-it may insert, either as from
Naples, Rollie, or Jerusalem..
The decision of the Congress en the fate of
Mu RAT is evidently under discussion, and what it
may be it is as yet impossible- to ascertain. We.
most sincerely hope that it will he consistent with
decorum and justice, and, if so, we are certain
that no vapuuring displays of his forces, either in
reviews at Naples, or in Marching towards the Po,
will retard the descent from royalty of a person
whose seat updn a throne -is a disgrace to all
the Monarchs i►r i:uroi►e; extept the Emperor cif
Elba. In the Voyage to that Island, lately'pub-
lished, there are descriptions of some beautiful
little Wets _near it, such ,as Pi,itnosa, which is
twelve' miles in circumference ;- Mount Cri•to,
which is ten miles roundabout, and even Capraja,
which extends twenty-two miles,—surely a revo-
lutionary postillion might be amply provided for
in any of these, without injury to a rightful So-
vereign, who has never forfeited his claim to be-
ing protected in his property by every one of the
Allied Powers...

The Merchants interested in the Bonding Sys-
tem had yesterdny anotlrer Meeting, of which we
have given a report. It will.be seen that they
urged nothing new—that they stated neither fact
nor argument which it could be supposed would
have the effect of altering the just, politic:, and
popular measure resolAed on by Ministers,
,and
promulgated by the Treasury Minute of the
27th ult.

In consquence of the decision of Government,
most of the Articles, (of which the greatest
quantity is under bond for Duties), have already
experienced a very considerable reduction in price ;
a clear proof, if any were wanted, that Mr. BAR-
ING assumed an erroneous principle when he af-
firmed it to be evident, that ".where the greatest
quantity of goods are collected together the con-
sumers • would have them at the most reasonable
prices." In contradiction to this, we say, that
where large. quantities of goods are not only col-
lected together, j.)4t kept together, in consequence
of facilities afforded to the sellers, whose indivi-
dual interests are promoted in the exact propor-
tion of the increase of price they can obtain, the
consumers have them not at prices so reasonable
as they ought fairly to fetch, and which it is at
this moment proved they do fetch, when they must
be brought to market, and the opportunity of re-
grating and monopolizing is taken away.

There can be no doubt but that this measure
will greatly contribute to the reduction of the
price of many of the necessaries and comforts of
life, .and as. such we think Ministers highly en-
titled to the gratitude of the Country for persever-
ing in it, though so strongly pressed by the very
powerful and respectable body of Merchants,
whose interests are in this instance opposed to
the general interests of the community.
