Thus it was shown that the new tonnage of last year nearly
doubled that of the year 1814, and he could only say that it
greatly exceeded that of any former year. The only other crite-
rion to which he could refer was that of the number of ships
cleared out awl entered inwards since the period of the relaxation
of the navigation laws. He held in his hand au account since
1811. The statement which had been made by those whits pro-
fessed to feel some alarm fur the prosperity of our shipping inte-
rest, w.es that British Shipping .had decreased by comparison with
foreign shipping. Ile would make a comparison of ships en-
tered inwards, and the accounts of ships cleared out would be fal-
lacioue, from the circumstance of those sailing in ballast not being
recorded.

Gentlemen would see that in the year of great commerce and spe-
culation the increase of tonnage entered into our various ports was
422,000 tons of British shipping, and that of all the rest of the
world only 197,000 tons. So that the only ground of alarm and
sole foundation of grievance was, that whilst foreign shipping in-
creased, British shipping increased in a still greater proportion.
He thought he had said enough to show that there was no cause
of despondency or alarm. He would, however, carry this part of
his inycatigation one step further. He was aware that the prin-
cipal alarm was directed to the State% of the North of Europe, awl
particularly Prussia. The increase of British ships from the
year 1824 to 1826, was as 470 to 942, whilst that of the Prus-
sian ships was only as 682 to 689. So that the number of Bri-
tish ships had doubled,whilst those of Prussia only increased by one-
fourth. He rested upon this, because he knew this Power to be
more the object of jealousy to the shipping interest of England
than any other, and to this he would advert fiirther
He had also an account of the number of ships which had paid the
Sound duties in going up the Baltic belonging to every different
nation in the ten years preceding the late war, and also in the ten
years from the year 1816 to 1825, both inclusive. He would
confine himself, however, to the last five years, beginning with the
year 1821 British. Foreign.

So that instead of our remaining at the former proportion of
about one-third of the whole, we had lust year considerably
exceeded it, and that in the year when the whole number had
been the greatest it was ever known. lie would not now enter
into any great detail, because he had moved fur these returns to
be laid before the House, and they would soon be in the hands
of lion. Members. For some time after the peace a great stag-
nation of commerce took place,. and a Committee of that House
was appointed to investigate the commercial-state of the cotuary.
His Right Hon. Friend the Master of the Mint took an part
in the labour of that Committee, and by his zeal and assiduity,
and intelligence, bad conferred the greatest advantages upon the
conntry. By the recommendation of that Committee, several
important changes took place in the law of navigation. One of
these changer applied to the enumerated articles as !they were call-
ed—whereas formerly tkey could only be brought to this country
in British ships, or in the ships of the country which produced
them ; they may now he brought, not in any ships, but in the ships
of the country where they are found. This alteration was necessary
to promote the warehousing system which it had been determined
to adept, and which would Otherwise have been counteracted by the
hostility and the retaliating measures of other powers. The restric--
tions were so far from being an encouragement to navigation, that
they proved a very great impediment to it; and the alterations in
the Navigation Laws took place at a time when goods were likely
to be imported chiefly from the places of their respective growth. It
was thought that they would be sought for and brought fiom the
countries of their production, and the result justified the anticipa-
tion. So far as the warehousing system was concerned, the
facilities afforded were necessary to its very existence. There was
another alteration, end one which he was ashamed to say had
not been sooner introduced, for it certainly ought to have
been adopted much earlier. By the change to which he alluded,
it was provided that the trade of Ireland should be put on the
same footing with the coasting trade of this country. It was
surely but fair that after the Act of Union between the two coun-
tries, their commercial intercourse should not be conducted on the
principles of foreign trade. With regard to the New World, an-
other step had been taken, and it was determined that the Bra-
zils should be treated like any other independent State. He was
surprised at the complaints which were tittered with regard to
those changes by an Honourable Member. It was quite clear
that an anxiety to create a commercial marine by the imposi-
tion of duties in favour of our own shipping, must excite jealous
feelings in foreign nations, which might operate to prevent
them from forming any commercial relation with this coun-
try at all, and those feelings could in no way
he so certainly al-
layed as by the determination to found the intercourse on a fair
footing of equality and reciprocity. He now came 'to the gra-
vsimen of the whole charge, the introduction of a law which did
away with the discriminating duties as to all those countries,
which put our ships on a similar footing in their ports. In a
general point of view it might be laid down as u rule, that
all prohibitions were most unfavourable .to that country which
possessed the largest Commercial Marine. The truth of the
principle was fully illustrated by the superiority which it en-
abled us to obtain over Holland. Adopting that advantageous
system we put down the naval power of the . latter country, and
it was in fact the system for any nation to pursue which would
raise its marine to the greatest eminence. The English were

the
other
hand they imported from Foreign Countries, as from America
and the Baltic, articles of great bulk with a large portion of ton-
nage, and of course requiring large vessels. Our imports being
more bulky, and of a less valuable nature than our exports, it fol-
lowed I:iat we were proportionally more liable to the disadvan-
tages arising from the prohibitory system. He knew indeed
that this country at one time, as a measure of convenience,
was in the habit of enfercing the Alien Ditties even on ships
which brought the productions of their respective countries.--
This was the practice'from a period antecedent to the American
'Revolution, an event which laid the foundation of many and
great changes since made, as well as of many others which were
yet to come; inasmuch as a degree of interest and attention had
been excited in the rest of the world, such as `existed at no for-
mer period, by the growth and progress of the United States.--
was wise indeed make such an arrangement as we did ;
and yet it was one which he might say we were driven to make,
or else we should be obliged to engage in a commercial struggle in
which we would have been sure to be defeated. Let the system
ference to other countries, anti the situation in which England wail
be good or had, its produce was clear, when considered with re-
placed. Ile held in his hand the Report of the British Consuls
at Danteic in the year 1822. That Report contained at translation
of the Prussian Order of Cabinet, respecting an increase of the
Governmeut port charges in the Prosaism ports, on vessels belong-
ing to countries between which and Prussia no reciprocity had
been fixed by Treaty, ,or which did not otherwise treat Prussian
ships and their cargoes as

" CONSTANTINOPLE, APRIL 11.

" The Ministers of France, England, and Austria, dispatched
on the 7th and Bth, to their respective Courts, couriers, announcing
the arrival of the Russian ultimatum ; and it is mid that, without
being asked by 111. Menziacky (who has several times. declared
that he was not instructed to ask their co-operation), they at the
same time took some steps to induce the Porte to accept the ulti-
matum of Russia. The answer of the Divan is now looked for
with great impatience. Many persons think it will be like that
given in 1821. Mr. Stratford Canning continues with activity
his negociatious with the Reis Effendi.

" The embarrassment into which the Porte is said to have
been thrown by the intervention of Mr. Stratford Canning in
favour ofi has been increased by the ultimatum which
the liassa

Court, and to which be demands a positive answer. Though it
seems credible on the one hand that the Porte may comply with
the demands of Russia, on the other, it is impossible that it
should listen to the proposals of England in favour of the Greeks.
On the other side, there is an accumulation of doubts, so inti-
mately connected with the ulterior existence of the Porte and of
Islamism, that it will be difficult to find an issue out of this laby-
rinth. It is said, besides, that Missolonglii continua) to defend

establishing a reciprocity in this respect, and the new regulation
lutd evidently for its object to induce the other countries, particu-
larly Britainaeo enter into a similar agreement. In another part
of the Report it was stated, that even vessels arriving in ballast,
and taking a cargo back, would in future be burthened with
about 37i pence per ton measurement more Government port
charges than Prussian ships. The Prussian Government
made this new port charge regulations professedly from the
interest created by the situation of their ship owners, who
were indeed all going to ruin. The consequence of this
was, that in 1823, the year following, he (Mr. Huskisson) had
memorials poured in on him from the English Ship-owners, stat-
ing that it became impossible for them to carry on their trade.
They (his Majesty's Ministers) accordingly communicated with
the Prussian Government. But could they say, who themselves
hemmed the discriminating duties ? The Prussian Ministers in
the course of that communication said, that it was designed in
the year following to extend the charge to goods also in the
shipping. The result would naturally be a' prohibition of
all intercourse between the two nations. After the Peace was
concluded 'with America in 1786, it wen difficult to call on
the West Indian Colonies to draw all their wants from this
country. Yet, as there was no wish to break throUgh the exist-
ing law, Orders in Council were issuell, allowing them to trade
with the United States. However, after repeated dispensations,
the States determined to prohibit the exportation of their pro-
duets. The English Government then established a kind of
neutral ground, and suffered the trade to be curried on through
the medium of Turk's Island. But this arrangement was again
prohibited by an Act of the United States. In the year 1821,
England allowed the United States to trade immediately to the
West Indies, provided their vessels returned directly to their own
country, while the European countries were permitted to send
their commodities in British ships. Yet it was not common
sense to suffer the United States to do what was refused to Den-
mark, Sweden, and other European States. He did not
entertain any particular feeling on the subject, but ,in a na-
tional sense it must be felt that there was a rivalry between us
and America. The other states, from their geographical po
sition, were now calculated to assist us in a time of need. Last
year he had proposed to open the trade in certain articles,
allowing other countries to participate in the trade to the
colonies. Now, last year, the shipping of the country was
over-employed. Freights were very highly raised ; and when
British shipping was exhausted, foreign vessels were re-
sorted to for the purpose of carrying ou mad speculations.—
The House would he surprised to perceive what had been the
increase in trading of last year over the preceding ones. In the
article of timber, 110,000 loads was the amount for 1822, and
300,000 for 1826. The dealings with Canada were also very ex-
tensive. In 1822, 1,094,000 bushels of linseed were imported,
and in 1826, nearly 3,000,000. So of various other articles. Be
