3. That from the superiority of our manufactures, and-the
ingenuity of our, worknieu,in oil braiches of the leittlier trade,
it may be presumed, that our exportation would' Of the price
had not been enhanced .by the original duty,- and.these c -
strictive laws which have lately been
_repealed, have been -89
3.nuch increased as to have been a source of far greater wealth
to the country.
• .

4. That the enormous -amount of .the present. duty on lea-
ther tanned in this country is equal forty per cent. on
English raw hides, and one hundred per cent. on South Anite-
rican hides, taliing the average of the last three Years.

5. .That a tax on, leather is, from the nature of 'the mann-

facture uutticularly *bjectionable; its raw materials (hides
and bark) are, when compared with the raw materials abroad,
dearer in this country than the raw materials of most other
manufactures, as raw hides are, comparatively, of little value
abroad, and' bark may be had, almost for taking off the trees.
6. That in the Itkanutactitre of leather very little advantage
is gained by machinery, in the saving of 'labour, which is sir
high in this-country compared with the price of labour iii nvot
other countries. . .

- 7. That machinery. is not necessary in the different branches
of tbe leather trade; and the art of making leather, shoes,
ticc. being' extremely simple., is better understood, and prac-
tised abroad, than most other manufactures.
• 6. .That this tax is very Amegtial. and oppressive, as one.
pound weight of ordinary leather, -worth nine-pence, will,pay
the same as one podnd'worth three shillings and nine-pence ;
-and the ikoes.worn by the labouring poor, though made of
inferiOr materials, and of coarser worlaffanship,- being double:
the weight of thoie worn by the higher classes, will pay
donble.the dt. '0; and, Consequently, as leather is deemed a
necessary of lite, this'tax .(at the came time Oat it is oppres-
sive to the poor) must tend to advance the price-of labour.
That Ireland produCes the raw materials (hides and
bark) as cheap as Scotland and many parts of England, and.,
front thersame markets; that she now actually supplies Great
Britain with considerable quanties of curried leather and
shoes; and, by thiS additional tax on leather, in Great Bri-
tain, will continue to do so in a greater degree, and at the
expence of the leather trade of this country. Tills will appear
evident when it is considered, that Ireland will pay her own
internal excise duty, (about one penny per pound in its
rough state), •and- on exportation of it zwarufactured, te-
ceive her own drawback, paying on its importation into ':rent
'Britain a .thri,;• of three-pence. per pound only; while tile-
British pay three-pence per pound excise duty . on the
unwrought article, and on exportation will receive a
drawback of four-pence. Thus, while tha drawltack on Bri-
tish manufactured articles is not equal to one-sixth of the
advance in price arising front the duty, the drawback on
Irish mannfactured' articles exported front this country will
be more than the amount of the duty paid by them; 7o that
this Act, (as the drawback is increased by it), while it taxes
the British manufacturer, operates as a bounty to the Irish
in our own market. - -

10. That experience has shewn, that the high price of all
articles manufactured of leather has greatly depressed the
export trade, and as this additional tax will ultimately ad-
vance the price of all goods manufactured of leather, to four
times the amount of tileollawback, it will operate to the gr,eat
diminution, if not the extinction, •of exportation.
11. That this tax will in a very great degree, if not wholly,
prevt!nt the manufacturing of • kioath American hides in this
country, which at this time pay about one•-third of the whole
duty upba leather, andatfords employment to about one-third
of the workwen in the leather trade of Great Britain ; and as'
hides form one of the chief remittances from South America,
the tax must greatly diminish our trade to that country, and
materially injure the general manufacturing interests of this.
12: That,. when it is considered this tax is imposed on
rough unwrought leather, and what great quantities of most
sorts of manufactured lei.ther are consumed. by Government,
that the addition of the different tradesnien's profits will oc-
casion them to pay double the amount o; the tax, and the ef-
feet- it will have to diminish the leather trade, iis tax must
not onlybe unproductive,but even depreciate the value of hide.*
anelbark, prove destructive to this great staple manufacture,
deprive tens of thousands of employment in different parts of
Great Britain; and otherwise greatly injuie the best interests
of the country..
13. That, for the foregoing reasons, this Meeting
every cotistitutionaluteans, endeavour to procure the repeal
of this tax; .and the various branches in the leather trade in
every,district of England and•Scotlarid are requested irome-
diately to meet, for the purpose of taking the same into their
most serious considdition, to transmit the result to the Se-
cretary, arid to name some person with whom the Committee
may correspond, wheneveX occasion requirei.
• 14. That these Resolutions be •signed by the Chairman,
published in the Morning and Evening Papers, and circulated
.among the trade.

JOHi UNDERSIIELL, Chaim;tau.

- The Chairman having quitted the Chair, •
It was resolved unanimously, !That' the Thanks of this
. Meeting begiven to the Chairman, and to the Committee, for
•their attention to the interests ofthe trade; and that they be
requested to adopt such measures, in furtherance of the Re-
solutions of this Meeting, as way appear to them to be ne-
Cessarv.

THE value of -Dr. FREEMAN's GLITTA
SA LUTA lt IS has been so long" pro vcd, that no-
thing of the present day esu bear a emtiperition w,.th it,
in all the different stages of a certain Disease, which
it etreauAlly cures, and eradicates NMI the habit, with-
out exciting. the painful feelings and exposure that
attend .Salivation—without debilitating the Constitution
in any degree, oi even requiring confinement from busi-
ness; or restriction of diet. The radical virtues, of these
inestimable Drops have proved their claim to public appro.
bation, for mere than thirty years: In all the debility of htth
Sexes they prove 'a never-failing Restorative,'whether the
debility is produced by too free use of Mercury, by illicit
-pleasures, or the effeCts of a warm climate. 'To Travellers;
and those,. going abroad, they cats "t be recommetuleo - too.
strongly, as they will receive a-safe, speedy, and complete
Cure, in all old stubborn Gleets, and every Weakness that
atfetts the Bladder and .Organs 'of Urine. By its efficacy
many Women have become Mothers, who for Manyyears had
been deprived of that happiness.
