LIVERPOOL, OCT. 8.-(DECEIVED THIS MORNING.)
[FROM TILE COMMISSIONERS OF CUSTOMS.]

Custom-House, London, Sept. 25,
GENTLE MIEN ,—Doubts having been entertained upon the
arrival of a vessel at her port of destination on the 31st May,
with a cargo of Timber, whether such cargo would be subject
to the new Duties imposed by the Ist and 2d of George IV.,
chap. 37, and which attached on the 28th of that month, until
it was proved that the vessel had not been within the limits of
any one Port in the Kingdom previous to the 28th %lay, the
practice having been to consider Great Britain as one gener.l
Port, and that the arrival within the limits of any one Port
constituted the importation, and that at such period the Duties
then in existence became due, we directed the opinion of the
Attorney and Solicitor-General to be taken, whether the Duties
attach upon the arrival of a vessel within the limits of any Port
in this Kingdom, on her transit to her destined Port, or only
upon her arrival within the destined Port, and they have given
their opinion that the Duties do not attach upon the arrival of
a vessel within the limits of any Port in this Kingdom, on her
transit to her Port of destination, but only upon her arrival
within her destined Port.
