(3 NU FACT') RE RS, and others concerned in the I
IRISH LINEN TRADE,. summoned, by .Public Notice
and held at the Linen-Hall, Dublin; on Thursday, stir
April, 1804, for the purpose of considering the expediency of
presenting a Petition to the Imperial Parliament, praying a
Repeal of the Duty lately imposed on the Export of Irish I
Linens to'7Foreign Markets, .
ALierman CRO MEM in the Chair;

Resolved, That it appears.to this Meeting that it Duty ex-
tending from t 1,3 d to 4 per Cent. ad valorem, has been lately
laid by the Imperial Parlkament, upon. the Export of Irish
Linens to Foreign Markets. _
Resolved, That the Bounties formerly granted by the Le-
gislature of Great Britain.and Ireland; on the Export of Irish
Linens, tetided in-a very eminent degree. to the extension and
Improvement of the inen Manufaaure of this Kingdom, by
enabling it to• meet. the Fabricks of. the Continent at Foreign
Markets, on equal terms ; and it appears to this Meeting
that these Bounties have been alike the result OfwisdOm and
necessity.
Resolved, That it -appears to this Meeting, that if the
Bounty on the Export of Linens has had the effea of pro.-
inotimt and extending the Linen Trade' of this Country; the
bperation of this Dutynnust be attended. with a (Bred con-
trary effed. • A
That it appears to .thi.l Meeting that the states
of Linens -have within the space of a few years advanced on
/he Irish Manufacturer in- the proportion of at least io per
Cent. •
Resolved, That it appears to this Meeting that the Export
of Linen Cloth from this Kingdom has from the year 1790,
'with little variation,.: continued.to decline.
Resolved, That it appears to this Meeting, that under these
' circUritstances we cannot but feel an extreme anxiety from
,the operation of a Duty which must so materially affeel our
Staple Manuladure at Foreign Markets, and the obvious •
:tendency of which is to depriVe tis of the only means we had
of there contending with-the Fabricks of Germany, France,
and Russia.
Resolved,. That it appears to this Meeting, that a Petition
should be forthwith presented to, the imperial Parliament,
praying for a discontinuance of the Duty on the Export of
Irish Linens, and that a'Commatee he appointed to prepare
said Petition, and submit it to this Meeting on Saturday next,

AROMATIC SPIRIT OF VINEGAR. -
THE original Inventor of this Preparation (Mr.
Henry, of Manchester, who first ofEtre,d the Aromatic
Spirit of Vinegar for general Sale about fifteen years ago) finds •
it necessary to caution the Public against the variety of spu-
rious Imitations, which are sold, under that Name, by Drug-
gists and Perfumers, throughout 'the Metropolis, and in
Country Towns. The more effectually to guardagainst I in-
position, the Purchasers of the Aromatic Vinegar are re-
quested to observe, that on the Stamp of each BOttle a,re en-
graved (by permission) the words " Thomas and William
.Henry, •Mahehester," to counterfeit which is a capital fe-
lony ; and that Messrs. Bayley and Blew, Cocksp,ur-street,
Charing-cross, are the only appointed Venders in London,
where the Aromatic Vinegar may be had, Wholesale and Re-
tail, in Bottles at as. 9d. each ; also Henry's Calcined• Mag.
nesia, in Bottles, at as. 6d. and larger, with Ground Stop-
pers, 45. each, Stamp Duties included.
