EAST-INDIA TRADE.

To the Honourable the COMMONS of the United King-
dom of GREAT BRITAIN and IRELAND, In Parlia-
ment Assembled.
The humble Petition of the Trustees of the Liver.
pool Docks,
Sheweth,
THAT the Port of Liverpool has, in the coarse
of little more than a Century, from its peculiar local
Advantages, and by the enterprising Spirit of its Inhabitants,
raised itself from the situation of a humble Fishing Town,
to the distinguished rank and Importance of the second Port

in the KingdOm.
That your Petitioners, whose province it is t' provide and
maintain the requisite Accommodation- for the Snipping re-
sorting to this Pert, have, at various times, under the autho-
rity or the Legislature, and as the increase of the Trade de-
manded, erected extensive Docks, and other Conveniences,
for the Shipping Interests of the Town.
That, urged by the Merchants at large two Years ago,when
their Trade was in great Prosperity, your Petitioners sought
for and obtained, during the last Session of Parliament,powers
for the further Improvement of the Port.
' That, in consideration not only of the existing want of ac-
commodation in the Decks for general purposes, but antici-
pating also the period when the Rignts of the Merchants and
Traders of Liverpool, in common with "all others his Ma-
jesty's SubjeCts, to a free Trade with the East Indies would
be recognised; your Petitioners have commenced various
Works upon anextensive Scale, calculated to meet the vast
accession of Trade, which, as they humbly conceived, would
be the result at such a System.
Your Petitioners, therefore, anxious for the Prosperity of
the important Trusts committed t,-; them, and contiding lu
the justice of
,this Honourable House, most humbly intreat
that they will.adopt_such Measures, as to their ‘Visdom
shall
seem best, fur obtaining to the l'urt of kiverpool, as well as
the rest of the United Kingdom, a participation of the- :franc
with our Easfern possession's, hitherto solely enjoyed by the
East India Company, and your Petitit/ners will, ;.ts 'in ditty
bound, ever pray.

To the Honourable the COMMONS of the United King-
dom of GREAT BRITAIN and IRE LAND, in Varier -
meat Assair b red.
The Petition of the Mayor, Bailiffs, anti Burle::,:..cs
of the Town of Liverpool, in Common Corti-al
assembled,
M9st humbly stieweth,
That your Petitioners conceive, that the Subjeas of these
Realms possess an inherent right to a free intercourse of
trade with ail other Nations and CountrieS in ai:sity with
th
risp:orersseercvlitirrienagyviicin ertshterußt
subdi
pd only to such Regulations as may be necessary
it'''egnuwes derivable from such,
hit those Countries,
and
Intereuurse.
That the MonopolY of the East India Company, how-
ever ex peitient or necessary at the per.-Y1 of their
First Char-
ter, is', as your Petitioners humbly conceive,. in the.p/e-
-sen m
t State of Comerce, and of tlle Vitoria, longer so ,
goodo ur po
and it is notneover inconsistent with those Principles which
are universally admitted to be essential to the prosperity of
Commerce.
Tilat every oilier Nation in Europe being, by the signal
Success of his Majtsty's Arms, deprived of all Territory and
Influence in the East Indies, as well as of •all means of
nuyance to the Navigation of . those Seas, an ample Field is
now opal for the exertion of Britisit Skill and Enterprise, and
for the Investment of that Capital which is rendered, in a
great measure, useless, in thoSe channels tat Trade where it
has heretofore been employed,
That your Petitioners, as the Guardians of the Interests of
the Town of Liverpool, while they lament the distressing
susrension of its Commerce at this tuneture, cannot but in-
dnlge a sanguine hope tnat the era is. arrived-which presents
to the Merchants and Traders of Liv.erpool, in comuion
whit
those of every part of the British Ein pire,. new and brighter
prosTeds in the participation of a Traffic twin which they
have been hitherto excheted.
rishareciur Petitioners disclaim any wish to interfere with
the Rights tit the Last hem. company, wiser, they appre-
' head may be maintained inViolate, without the continuation
°fa System that infringes the Privileges of others. • •
Your Petitioners, therefore, reposing entire Confidence in
the Wisdom and lustice of this ilonouroble r-louse, humbly
entreat that they will be pleased to adopt such measures as
may secure to the Merchants of the Port of Liverpool
the advantages or a fie,: 'I rade beyond the Cape of Good

Arne your Petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray.
Given unLier the Common Seal of the said Town.

To the honourable the COMMISSIONERS of the United
Kingdom of GIRL•'AT BRITAIN and IRELAND, in
Parliament assembled.
The humble Petition of those Merchants, Ship.
Owners, Tradesmen, and other Inhabitants of the
Town of Liverpool, whose names are hereto sub-
scribed.
•

Your Petitioners humbly beg leave to represent to your
honourable House,, that by various Charters, granted from
time to time to. the Las. India. Conipany, your Petitioners
have for a long series of years been restrialed in carrying
.at
Trade, as well with the extensive possessions of the Com-
pany in the East !Mies, as with the whole of the Islands-
and Territories in Africa and Asia, from the Cape of Good
hope to the Straits of Magellan, and :have thus, as your Pe-
titioners humbly conceive, not only been prevented from ex-
ening their mercantile skill and industry, and employing
their capital in a manner the most advantageous to their
country and to themselves, hut have been deprived of thciie
privileges which they humbly p,esume are the commonr
birth-right of all his Majesty's subjeds—the right carrying.
on a free Trade to all parts of the British Empire, and other
counties in ainity with this United Kingdom, -subject only
to such general regulations of trade as the policy-of this:
country may require, or as may be necrsary tor.rnaintaming
the relations of these realms with foreign states, and scenr-.
ing to Government those revenues which May be revisite
for its support.
Your Petitioners further beg leave humbly to state to your
honourable House that they cannot but tegard all monopb-
lies, which prohibit the general body of the people train car-
rying on Trade with any other country at large, and as great-
ly discouraging that commercial spirit which, from the na-
ture and local situation of these Islands, is indispensable to.
their prosperity, and which their security at th s moment es-
ly depends.
Your Peritsoners having therefore assembled together in a
General Meet Jig, hzrie resolved to appeal for a redress of this
their grievance to your Honourable House ; in the humble
but confident hope that you will consider the protection of
the equal rights of this Majesty's subjects to a Free Trade,
and the extension of an honourable, just, and le,itimate
commerce, as amongst the first and most important obje6ts
of legislative regukit ion.
Your Petitioners, therefore, humbly intreat that your Ho.
nourable House will be pleased to take this subjeCt into
your most serious consideration; and that you will at the
earliest opportunity adopt such measures for abolishing
the cominercial monovly of the East India Company as
to the wisdom and justice of Parliament may seem west
expedient.

turers, and all other the subjects' of the United Kingdom,
have directed me to apprize you of their intention of ap-
pointing a Deputation twin this place, in the first week in

free trade to all the world.
The Committee•are convinced, that the most effeAual
