IVe congratulate this niOst important and 'ittloa7
,
Me ela*s of his Militty's subjects on the Act they
haVe recently obtained; to limit their responsibi-
lity to the value of t tar- slops and freight ; For
althoUgh the policy Of the. Measure was self-evi-.
dent, and Which ought long ago
.to have been
adopted by the Legi,;lature,. yet there‘exieted 890
prejediceS to it as to have tendered it long 4,moion!
whether it wool& pass into a law or not ; indeed
the first Bill, though it had passed the House
.
of . Co_mm,ons., was obliged to be withdrawn
front the lion-se of. Lords, and another sub-
itittited u its stead. The: acquiescence of the,
'Mercantile Interest, and the perseverance Of the
persons to whom the progress of the Dill was in-
trusted, overcame, at last, the serious difficulties-
with which it wszl attended, and the Hill received
