1. Resolved, That, in common with the rest of our fellow sub-
jects, we conceive that we have a right to a Free Trade with all
parts of the British Empire, under such Regulatior.s, as justice
and sound policy may require.
11. Resolved, That, as Commercial Men, we forbear evering
into the discussion of the Territorial nights of the East-India
Company, or the internal government of its possessions, while at
the same time we trust, that, in contemplation of the expiry of
their Charter, the important interests of the Company will be
muted on liberal and fair principles, compatible wi:h ;he sanc-
tion of a free trade to India, under equitable regulatlous for the
general benefits of the subjects of the United Kingdom.
3. Resolved, That the natural effect of throning open the
Trade to all the Countries beyond the Cape of Coed Hope, wail,
In our apprehension, enable our Manufacturers to exert their
skill and industry with alarmed energy and advantage; tend to
relieve their present distresses;—and also, ream ',to
we have rea',
to contemplate, such new soirees of trade
will yield employment
to the many suffering operatives, wile, are, by the calamities of the
times, and the tyrimilical restrictions of the enemy, diprived of
thtir ordinary means of support.
I. Resolved, That, as a Ivlatitifacturin7, part of the Comn:u-
nity, we feel it to be our duty, in covjunction with the Briti•L
Merchant and Shipper, (on whom we so much depend for the
sale o' our produc,s4 to unite in a respectable application to Par-
liament, that our Trade to the Eastern Parts of the World may
neither be excluded, nor fettered by monopolies, ifs at present ;
nor mien d by preferences granted to neutral nations. nor cramp-
ed be tintiecess try reerctions; but that the Merchants of the
nited Kingdom nay have the clear and decided right of impor-
ting the raw ma-er'als and other articles of commerce from India,

patty or by foreign nations; and It may be pt., mimed that the
same industry will introduce a greater proportion of british Ma-
oulaetores into those regions than are now exported thither.
5. Resolved, That the following Members be appointed a
Committee, to prepare Petitions to both Hous,s of Parliament,
in conformity with the above Resalations, which were carried
unanimously; and also to take whzt o.h-r steps may be deemed
necessary, in cooj unction with other holies, for promoting the

neglected any occasion of procuring such an advantage.
That do propostd renewal of the Chatter of the East India
Company, rails fin our pankular attention, because the mono-
poly of the East India Comiany has been peculiarly unfavourable •
to the Introduction and constunlition of ar.icics of British Mann-
facture in the immense and populous regions over whi Isthey
have the confront ; and we confidently hope, that if the East he
rendered accessible to tritish Capital and British Industry, new
Markets of great extent wfil be opened to our Manufactures ind

That it is therefore expedient far Ili humbly to petition both
