IN Ahefrade between the United States,
and the British West Indies, the vessels OF
the former were under AN absolute prohibit
ton whilst British vessels in that trade en-
loved all the privileges granted to other,
even the most favored nations in their
trade with u.s. The inequality in this case
was the more striking, as it was evident,
that the West Indies were dependent OH
the United States, for the supplies esscnti-
al to them, and that the circumstances
which secured to the United States, this
advantage, enabled their vessels to trans
port the supplies on far better terms than
could be done by British vessels.
To illustrate the policy requisite in our
commercial intercourse with other nations,
he presented a comparative view of the A.
merican s. foreign tonnage employed in the
respective branches OF it, from which it
appeared, that the foreign stood TO the A
merican az follows.

Great Britain, }s,o1
Such disproportion, taking even the re-
duced one, in the navigation of Great Bri-
tain, was the more mortifylng, when the
nature and amount OF our exports are COM
sidered. Our exports are not only tor the
most part, either Immediately necesSaries
OF life, or ultimately as nece ssaries to ma
nufactures, necessaries If employment and
life TO manufactures, and must thence COM
mand sure market wherever they are
received at all: But the peculiar bulkinesS
Ct them furnishes an advantage over the
exports of every other country and parti-
cuiarly over those of G.. 3. If such an ad-
vantage belonged to that nation, the policy
that governs her navigation laws, would
probably have given the exclusive carIi-
age to- her own bottoms. 1t is equally in
cur power, if so selfish principle should
be forced upon US, 20 secure To our bottoms
.the same monappy9 leaving TO other natl
Dns with which we trade, che ex- iusive
carriage OF their exports. The regulation
would to be sure, be mutually incOnveni-
ent; and, by forcing the vessels Of each
party To return empty from foreign mar
kets, be SO far tax on the intercourse
This effect. however. did not disproVe the
power in general which the character OF
them, nor lessen the argument drawn from
it. Examine it in relation to G.. b. The
bulk of her exports to US, compared with
that If ours to her, is as nothing. An incon'
siderable quantity of shipping would sufhce
for hers, whilst ours can load about 222 ,OO(
tons Including the ar.ic es she exports
from the w Indies to this country, they
bear no proportion. to ours. Yet in the en-
tire trade between the u. s. md the Brl'
fish domnions, her tonnage is to that o
the u. S as $4,000 employing $3.50 sea-
men, TO sc 600 employing 5000 seamen
Were a rig d Cxertion OF our right to take
place, ii you'd extend our tonnage to 1922
600, and leave a. G. B. employment fol
much less than the actual share now enjoy
ed by the u. S. 1t could not be " SIZED t
push matters to this extremity. 1t Showed
however, the very unequal and unfavora
BILE footing on which the carrying trade
the great resource Of our safety ard res
.peCtdDuity, was placed by foreign rcgula
ito S, aud tie REASON biCness OF peaceabl
attempts to meliorateit. We might at least
in awaiting ourselves OF tive merit Of our tx
ports, contend for such regulations as wou
reverse the proportion, AID give the U. ;
the $4,000 tonnage, and $3.50 seamcn, in
stead of the So, 900 tonnage aud $500 sea
men. -

quantity of tonnage What was importe
in American vessels, which would otbei

of our tonnage. The way to effect thi
was to secure expectations to America
