CITY LICIiINESS.- Yesterday the LonDMA-voa
held a Court of Common Council, which was
very numerously attended. A. Petition. was pre-
sented from the Grand Jury for London, rela-
tive to their having been refused visiting the
Gaol of Newgate as a right, by the Keeper of
that Gaol, and in respect of the legal proceed-
ings adopted by them against him, which was
read and referred to a Committee of City Lands.
—The Committee of City Lands made a Report,
recommending an application to Parliament
against the Bill for repealing part of the Act of
Charles. 11. restricting Buildings on the Banks of
the Tharnes, between London Bridge and the
Temple, upon which some discussion ensued
the Report was agreed to by a very considerable
majority, and. a Petition to the House of Com-
mons adopted, and ordered to be presented, as
usual, by the Sheriffs and Remembrancer, and
the Cty and other Members requested to sup-
port the same.—The Committee to watch over
the Proceedings of the Court of Aldermen, in
their Prosecution against certain Liverymen, re-
ported the Amount of Expe►►ces incurred in de-
fendi►ng the said Prosecutions, and were em-
powered to draw on the Chamber to discharge
the same. The Committee appointed to receive
the Queen, on her going to St. Paul's, .were au-
thorised to draw for payment of their expences
on that occasion.

The Contractors for the Lottery, having sold'
every Ticket and every Share before the '23d of
February, had not any for sale but those return-
ed, consequently the Public had all the Capitals ;
but many having been returned were sold again,
and many persons wish to know the places they
were returned from, but the Contractors have re-
quested the various office-keepers not to publish
any such account, as they are in hopes the per-
sons who returned them took no account of the
Numbers, and they are very unwilling to tanta-
lize them by reminding them of the loss they
have sustained by such return : but they do wish
to remind every one that next Saturday, St. Pa-
trick's Day, the Lottery entirely finishes, and
the Three remaining R 41,900 Prizes, and every
other Capital, and every other Prize, must be
drawn that day.

That the Ship Owners are actuated lty a sense of their own
interest, i 3 most trite; they du.ioo?,f►ietend that they are tak-
lug all the pains in.their power to prevent this-measure front
being carried into effect but principally to save.thensselves
from ruin; yet, while they may fairly and honestly avow this
to be their primary motive, they also deprecate the measure
as one most injurious to the best ioterestscf the Country, anti
perhaps exercise quite as touch patriotism when they would
avert laws hurtful to the welfare of British Shipping front
passing, as other people do when they are anxious to have
prohibitory laws for the protection of British Agriculture ;
undoubtedly the Country Gentlearan's• fit st motive is the
improvement of his runt roll, with which he thinks the pros-
perity of the Country to be couuected, its I believe it is, nor do
I think any one will be. hardy enough to deity that great national
benefits emanate flout the encouragement of our mercantile
Nat y ; and it is with reference to objects of national policy that
the Ship Owners desire you and other Legislators to consider
the subject, to weigh.and balance well the advantages the State
will forfeit by destroying the Wood Trade with our Colonies
against the advantages to be gained by such a measure; and that
you may be informed on the subject, and have before you the
vithlic reasons out which we-desire you to act, I will take the
liberty of entreating you to read a small pamphlet lately pub-
lished, entitled 4' Observations un the Report of the Select
Committee of the House of Lords, relative to the Timber
Trade,"—by tist, you will find, that 1500 slt;as are cuiploved
in effecting the transit of Timber from our Colonies to the
Mother Country, and the Ship Owners request you to rely on
their knowledge of the subject, when they tell you, that but
:Iv:eq. small propmtion of this [somber can he employed to
bring similar produce front the Baltic; by far the greater part
of these Ships therefore must tot in the hat bouts, and the
men, who would otheewise be employed to navigate them,
must starve ill the streets, or incumber the Poor-houses,

and rtei that quantity
tnanufactutjnt;, which so numerous it body was enabled by
this Trade to consular, muit.remain,onealled fur, while the.
State must lose the tonnage, and other duties paid by the
Ships.
Of the value of the services of British Seamen in time of
war, it would 1w superfluous to speak, they ate well. kuown,
but I lunch dmiht, (if the Legislature will pass Laws calcu-
lated to deprive them of employment) not tlrrlq appreciated.
This Nation has lately been engaged in war for almost a
quarter of a century, with a most daring and enterprising
enemy, but not once during that long series of years was her
soil trodden by hostile feet ; the victorious legions which had
overcome every other country of Europe, burning with desire
of venersince, and hopes of plunder, would have advanced to
attack her with a determination, which, whatever might have
beets the result, mast hare cost her dear, could they have
passed the Gulf which separated them from her shores ; and
what prevented them ? what was the obstacle ? The Nave,

manned with these unfortunate men who, having fought the
battles of their country, and being dismissed from its service
to gain their bread as they might, found the nieansultiriogin
the employment afforded by the American Tin►berTrade,With
the los; of which they are now threatened.—We are very apt
not to value'onr blessings till we are deprived of them ; if
our estates had been overrun, our hots,rs rGlthed, our pro-
perty laic, waste, and our Wives, and daughters exposed to the
violation of a rude soldiery, perhaps we should have valued a
little more than it i.ppears we now' do, the Only omens of
preventing such dreadful evils. I would not be thought to'
undervalue the courage and shill of our Army, so cunwpicu•
ously di9.layed in our late arduous contest; I doubt not but
an invading enemy would ultimately he di iven front the
country, but not till it had endured all the evils imiident.l9
a seat of wa., and froze► which a Navy :►lone c.►n protect ne ;

but if, by impolitic meaSutcs, we find ourselves in ten or a
dozen years without seamen, our ships of war will he but of
little avail, deprived 'of the gallant spirits .th.it aniforoed
them. In addition to the value of the services of our sailors

of
in time of war, the Ship Owners consider the pos:ession
their ships themselves as a very considerable na'ional benefit.
The class of vessels employed in the American Timber Tia,e
are peculiarly adapted to the transport of troops, and it ismo
small, advantage to an insular nation to have the means f
wafting an at my to any point continually ut its power.
Of the policy of encouraging our own Colonies try'tousuin-
ing their produce, in preference to that of foreign countries,
the Ship Owners•presinne there can he little dontit, particu-
larly at a moment when the redundant p quiliition of the
country seems to need a vent, and which ciiimiles do actually,
to the utmost extent of their Means, consume British Mann--
factures, and British N•Linufaetores exclusively. These are
some of the reasons of a public nature which have been urged
in favour olarr Timber duties remaining as they ale, but I
don't find that any body has indulged us with -a iew of any
parthalar national ailvantai!es expected to ar4se front the
change, though we have heard that it will benefit a few mer-
chants, to whom large sums of money are due from Norway,
or who have considerable establishments in sUme of t,e
Prussian ports ; do we expect to export inure manufactures
to the North of V.nrope ? if we do, will the increase competisate
for the decreased demand of the Colunies„and for ithe cessation

of consumption at Linde by the numerous intliviihials sop-
ported by British freights ? What arc the public reasons urged
in favour of the chalige are they strong enough to counter-
balance the loss of employment to at leatt one thousand
vessels, with all the nonconiumptiou of peodUce that most
tabu place from the decay of trade among the classes with
whom their freights would be laid out, to Outw‘eixtt the lost
of IMO° seamen who mutt ttarwe or. eraigrat,e, mato supply

days; the paroxysm of the _late war called out all our eneigie,;
oiir nerves ;tint muscles have been strained to the utmost pos-
sibility of trns:o 3, and now the fit is over, we are prop•+t•tion-
ably feeble ; the demand occas;tmed by the war has left us
with an excess of proili,ction ; tempted i►y the high prices of
that day, we have ploughed not our Grass Lands, enclosed
Connuons, and cultivated Wastes, till We leave produced mote
Corn than cart be sold fire a remunerating ;!rice (as a prottf of
this, meat remains at double the price it sold for before the

classes are suffering, and vainly expecting relief from Go-
vernment or from the Lvgisla'ure.

Time alone can retrieve tilts state of things ; in time the
glut will be Out rid of, and a natural a Ai healthy demand
ari‘e and the aisest thing that Lugislatnrs can do, is to

how they rneJillc with the navigation and other laws passed.

tors believed our n 04.1131 f,reatitess and sure defence to be
founded, and which Adam Smith himself exempts from his

general censure uo restiictive tostatut es.
Our arch enemy linotiaparte's great' wish was for Ships,
Colonies, and Commerce, and his must eaergetic endeavours
were to destroy our trade; but however little it may be the
intentiOn of those Who advocate this change in the Timber
Duties to produce such a tesult, they may depend 'upon it
they will do more to seduce England's maritime greatness
that; any enemy stir ever had has been able to ttiect ; 1411t1
there Cats b.: nu doubt, but if this measure is carried, and•
succeeded by a repeal of the Navigation Laws, which the
game party lire emir:wont to-effect, we shall commit such
a political telo de IC, as nu nation befoic us was ever
guilty of.
