Sir,--l request you will cause 10 be made pub
lie, for the information Of the merchants con-
nected in trade with the ports of Colombia, that
an act has passed the Congress, making many
important changes in the laws Of Import and
Export. Two other acts have likewise met
with the appreciation of the Executive: one de-
claring the ports Of Puerto Cavello and Cariha
gena on this coast, and Guayaquil on the Paci-
hc, places of deposit;-the other act does away
with the three per cent. usually called Consump-
ton Duty.
BY the law fixing places of deposit, goods
imported may be warehouscd for any length OF
time, paying per cent. per annum; and such
merchandise may be removed, either in whole
or in part, for expectation or for sale in the
country. The time allowed for paying the du-
ties, when consumed in Colombia, is in two e.
quail payments Of three and six months,-to be
calculated from the time the goods are removed
from the public stores.
These different acts will be in force from the
LIST day of September next-copies of which |
herewith transmit.
have the honor to be, sir, your obed't serv't.
