    ble, that Mr. Jay rrinv -hive intended { for never was a
public in'trument-(^rawn■ with- less preeifion titan the
one before is ) that - this provision (hould Only- extend
to poods brought in for the purposes of the Indian
trade, y?t how the words can be made to bear this
conftruclion I am at a loft to conceive. But (hould
tveri this be admitted to be the true meaning, it will
attain prove the extreme folicitnde of • the framers of
the treaty to fecurc to the Britilh the whole benefit of
the Indian trade ; without this article, goods might be
pure trifeu of our merchants, for the purpose of this
commerce which would, on account of the ten per
<\ ,n. di!Tepence, have been imparted in American vef-
f t i 5. but this flight advantage it fceras was deemed
t.io iiiucii for tlie faerince of the whole profits of the
Indian trade. It is therefore ftiplihted,. that the Bri
tifK shall na ifjate our rivers to the highest porr of eta
fry for foreign vefll-ls, and that upon this <-oaftrn<Slion
they Chill pay foreign duty for the they Im
port, so that all that the British merchants will have to
do.-wilt lie to eftabl'dh faitovies at*the ports of entry,
and under pretence of the Indian trade (if it ihould be
thought that the words;fiiould be confined to that)
imnoi t ill .British bottoms upon rlie fame terms as we
do'in our own <hips : and as by the 15th article our
velfels are to pay a duty, whicn is to Cflulu rva.l the
duty V *'A hcrV by the fcritifti, th.it is, ten per cent.
JBVerv a- tide imported this way, as Ind-an goods, w.ll
vivid to per cent, more pro it to the Britilh merchant,
*:ifchig the Outward and homeward voyage into eonii
deration, than it will to the Amerir.-.h. and the revenue
law be eluded. ByY'fuppofirig it pofflble„to prevent
tiiefe goods lb imported into New-York, for inifance,
'and there put 011 board river velle's, and fV«m thence
carried by land and by inland navigation for a corrfi
d. rable dilfeuc*, from being Cold before they get into
the weilerti territory; yet even then tin provision
nuill operate as a bounty on Britilh ve.fjls, i.i prefc -
ence Jo all other foreigners, and as an encouragement
ps ten per cent, in favour of the British merchant who
carries on the Indian trade, to the. prejudice of our
owit commerce and our own revenue. 1 b us, to niine
mrfelf more -fully understood, a B-ttifh m-rrhant fen«s
in his own ffiip articles intended for the Indian'trade,
or indeed any other under that pretence, he has a right
to enter them without paying any other duty than the
American does, his return cargo pays no duties in
England. The American merchant Ihips in his own
reffel the fame articles, on the fame terms, but by the
general operation of'the ijth article, Britain has i
ri»,ht to lav on the return cargo a duty of ten per cent.
lilt words of the article are, " but the Britiih go
* ycrnuient reftrves to hcrfelf, the right of impoDng on
-Am trie in veilels entering into the British ports in
Europe, a tonnage dnty equal ta that which Hull he
payabh-'by Britiih velfels in the ports of America, arid
affo such duty SS may be adequate to countervail the
difference"of dutt imo payable on the importation of
. T.uropean and Asiatic goods when imported into the
United States in Britiih or American vcIT Is." If,
then, against all obfUcles, the American merchant
(hould carry c« the Indian trade, will ire not by tliis
circumstance be compelled to import and evport in
Brlti'lh -veffeis"? By the 12th article, Britilb vc (llle may
import into tiie United States from their iflancis, with
out paying greater duties than the Am- :icani ; this
U'TStn is direct oppoiition to a law of the United &ta.es
above rtcitc.l.
By the sam arli' !e. our boati of -o t<-ns, that b:s
jitiijti'lj co '//t'.'.'/r (tor it fee ins ait'cic i-> a 11
bouuty his man ftv, aril not iite the rc((, rr--.tter '.f
agreement) are a!fo to pay an equal tonnage duty, in 1
the' islands with that the British pay here. Now J
would aft, if it is poifiMe to dcvjfe a more effectual ,
ivay to .put the whole Weft-India trade into hands ot
the British.
ift. They pay only American duties, id. As the
American must p.iv in the Islands, what tonnage the
Brit-ill pay here, the tonnage would be exa&ly even, j
hut as the American viffel aifo pays a tonnage duty in
our own ports ot 6 cents which the British do not pay j
in their own islands, it must follow that the -British j
carrying on tha Weft-India trade, will pay 6 cents tcil ;
t nnage upon the whole out a-id return voyage, than
the American, and as four voyages may be made in a
year, the-American will the couife of the year,
24 cents per ton more than the ijritifli flnp, l
the {hip is unlimited as to size which we know to be
an important circumstance in the cheapness of naviga
-1? tion ; that our minifttr fliouid not be content to put
the British upon a par with the American in the face
of exifline laws, and laws too that cannot he altered,
fcecaufe they are pledged for the difcharf.e of the fund
el debt, seems so monfhous a misdemeanor, that it
will hardly be bell ved even by those who have read
the treaty over with attention.
I therefore tranferibe the very words " and the
fa<d American veffcls flnll befttbjea there to no
higher tonnage, duties or charges, thanjhall be payable
by Briti/h v'Jels in the ports of the United Statei"
Now Britith'vefn.ls pay a tonnage in our poi ts of 50
cents, which according to the cxprefs' words of the
treaty wfc must pay m their port--, in addition to
which by our own laws, our velfcls are fubje&.to
a tonnage of fiic cents; so that -.v:;en :lie Bt it i!h
pnys fifty the American will pay fifty lix cents per
toil upon Sis ontvrard and homeward voyage, that
IS fifty under the British law, and fix under our
own. If in addition to this, it is ronfidered that
the Brrt'ifh are empowered to let'le as factors or
merchants in all o«r ports, and rrtft even to be rno
lefled in cafe of a war, and on tht other hand it is
exprefsiy prohibited by the British navigation aft,
foi American<o fettle or establish a trading bouse
—It is also conlidered, that any British ship hav
ing carried out her cargo, may he governed by
circumflanccF, and g,o where (be eliobft s for a bet
ter maiket, while the American mult ncceffariiy
return to our ports, it will follow, .hat the whole
trade of the Britiih Weft Indies mutt be carried on
iii Britiih Bottoms, and our merchants either be
precluded from this trade, or consent to a£t the
hamble part of factors to British merchants ; the
vrflels formerly employer! in this trade, must necef
fsri'iy rot at our wharves, and our seamen be turned
over to Great Britain, to support her commerce,
and, whenever she thinks proper, to plunder and
dilirefsont own., ft may be said, that we have at
present no Welt India trade but by permifuon
but it should be recollected, that that permission
grow, out of the necessities of the Ilia 11 ds ; that it
always exilted in some shape ; that during the war
their ports limit be open to 11s, and probably for two
vears after, til! the wants, occasioned by the war,
lire supplied, so tlwt this article extends only to
the vet? period m which we may presume with cer
tainty uo-wthis commerce on fair and equal terms.
Were it even otherwise, as it is n«w notorious
that the iflartds cannot fulfill without us, by prohi
biting their ftiii.'S from carrying arttd.es that they
cannot do without; it would neceffar. ly fcllow,
that they would be compelled to open their ports
tl-> m upon our own terms. But at all events we
be very cor.fiderabie Jafa* by this treaty, for
fepm-fing that trade, would, independent of the
treaty, have been earned on in Bn'tifh bottoms, w"
then gained, at leaffc the 10 pei cent, the foreign
duty on their imports, which duty-would opciiite
as a bounty upon our trade with other foreign Weft
India Minds, ,as well as limilar ariides imported
from the East Indies, and thus contribute to ex-
tend our Navigation and commerce in one quarter,
while it restrained it in another ; we (houid indeed.
by this means, have less of the produce ef the Bri
tilh Iflaiids, but more of the produce of other coun-
tries ; our exports to the British islands woulfl con
tinue as they were, because they could not do witli
out them : our imports from thetn would dimmish
and the foreign markets fri.ra which we lupplied
the deficient yof British fuga'S, Sic* would afford
an additional market for exports. But, alas ! the
evils of this article do not even flop at the point I
have mentioned. By this treaty we are not only
to lose the benefits of the trade with the Briiirti,
hilt also with the French Ifonds, who now kirtdly'
open their ports to ic3; by the second article of our
treaty with France, we mutually agree, that nei
ther will " grant any particular favor toother na
tions, in refpett of commerce and navigation, which
{ball not immediately become common to the other
party, who (hall enjoy the fame favor freely, if- the
concefiion was freely made, or on allowing the fame
compensation if the concessions were conditional. "
The French then, the moment this teaty is ratified
have aright in cafe they admit us to vilit their if
land3 with reflels of seventy tons, to come to our
pi.rtSj free of foreign duty upon the articles they
import, and mav also impose a tonnage duty of 5c
cents on our veiltU, and of courft'to navigate to.
and from our our po.ts, (iii cents cheaper tha i our
own velTels, and can we doubt after the causes o*
disgust which this treaty will give them, that they
will delay a moment to exchange our free trade,
with their islands, into that fame commerce which
we meanly accept as a bounty from Britain ?
Grenvil'e, however, conceiving that the t.ansfer of
our whole Wcjl-lndia trade and navigation, was not
fu'ffiotentlv ruinous To our commerce, asks and ob
tains from our polite envoy in return for his majef
ty's condefceniion in accepting so great a part of
our trade, that we would also prohibit the expor
tation of molasses, sugar, coffee, cocoa or cotton, j
in American vciTels, either from his M tjefty's if
landi, or from the Unit, d Sidles to any part of the
world, reasonable sea (tores excepted. Ihe few a
po'ojrifls that the treaty has yet found affect to be
lieve that the reitriftion is to be confined to such of
j the above articles as are imported only from the Bri
j tifh ifiands, but the words are express, "that the
I United States will prohibit and re It rain the carrying
1 a fff ( not any such) molafies, &c." and the reason
f they, will urge in defence of the only true and obvi -
J ous conftruftion would fee, that as ona cask of coffee
j cannot be diltujguilhed from another, if any was
I exported, that which came from their islands would
1 not be exported, and thus we would in this circuit-
I ous route acquit* a certain proportion .of the carrying
trade. That this is a part o f a genera! lyftem for the
ruin of our navigation (Britain always having dread
ed us as a Hval) will appear from the iiiitruftions
of aimed ship* of the Bth of Jan. I 795, which re
main unrevoked, and as saras we have yet learned,
uncenfured by Mr. Jay. By that their armed vcf
fels are inftrudted "to bring in for lawful adjudica
tion all (hips with their cargoes that are laden witli
the produce of the French Welt-India islands,
foi iny port of Etirope." How then (lands our trade
as to the exportation of those important articles,
ill. We arc not to ship them from the French If-!
lands. 2. We are not to (hip them from the British
islands. .3. We are not to (hip them from ihe Uni
ted States. From the Ealt Indies we cannot (hip
them, becaufc the East India cargoes being afTorted
for our markets, must ftrlt .land hereafter which,by
the tenor of the treaty, we are not to refhip them,
nor can we ever ship the Cotton which is the pro
duct of our country ; the prohibition being express
that we (hall not export any. Now let us fee the a
mountof the exports, and determine how, far it is
wife to lay ourfeives under these humiliating rellric-.
tions.
Ftom the firft iftofO&ober, 179 r, to the 30th
• of September, 1792.
Cotton exported 138,328 lbs.
Coffee 2,136,742
Cocoa 6,000
Brown Sugar 1,122,1^6
Loaf do. 21,760
Mobiles _ 12,340 gals.
Humiliating as this article is, when I come to
consider ths 14th and 15th articles it will appear,
that neither this nor the loss of Indian trade are
the fevered blows aimed by this treaty, at the com
merce and navigation of the United States.

COMMITTEE OF HEALTH.
Solicitous to qui.et any ur.fouiided apprehension
■which may red on the minds of the citizens, with
refpeft to the spread of any malignant disease ; but
at the fame time convinced of the necessity of a
faithful detail of facts as far as tliey have come to
our knowledge. When the public is addressed up.r
on this filbjeA the commiu«e of health think pro
per to declare, that in their 1 opinion, no circum
Itance hasexifted in this city, which ought to have
the alarm, which in said to have gone
forth. It 4s true that a fever, precisely like one
which has twice in the cotlrfe of four or five years
been oblerved in tile autumnal fcafons in this pi tee,
has ?.gain made its appearance—f-veral fea-iaring
min have'fallen viitims to it. It is fufpefied to
have originated on bo ird of a Certain vessel, wliich
lay at Fitche's wharf; but of tl is there can be ob
tained no decided evidence. Njjt withftaHdin* which
the vessel lias been ordered off the stream. It is
fulpe&ed also, but without decided evidence, that
our late worthy health officer fell a vithm to some
unguarded rxpofure fi> an infefivd corpse on board
a vessel. Bolides him, notwithstanding thj m-41
diligent enquiry, we liave obtained information of
not more than eight deaths happening among our
citizens fiace the 20:h of lift month, fr m fevers
supposed ia any decree malignant. The number
of pirfuns killed by the imprudent life of cold wa
ter has been rem likable, and labourers and other#
actively employed ought to be frequently caution
ed -011 this head. The committee have taken the
mod prompt and effectual meaiures to guard Jhe
health of ihcir fellow-citi/.eni>: a house is prepared
at B--Ilvue, for the rcceplioa of lick persons who
may be fufpe£ted of infection, with every agreea
ble accommodation, lubfiitcnce a,id rredical aid.
All vessels coming from foreign countries, from
which there is any reafion to apprehend the intro
duction of irrfe&ious fevers, are now.obliged to re
main below Governor's island, until! vilited by the
health officer, and a regular pe-m'it for their entry
be granted. The citizens ought t» confifkr it tiieii
duty individually to report to the committee any
person who may attempt to evade this precaution,
that the penally of the law may be enforced. The
pra&itioners of physic in th< city, have been parti
cularly requeftrd to be early and faithful in tepre- j
fenting any dangerous or suspicious cafe. A henrlf
it provided and may be readily obtained by an ap
plication to the chaiiman ef the committee, or any
one of the Aldermen, for the early burial of the
dead, whenever it shall he thought necessary, a
practice earnestly recommended during the hotted
lesion, it being a well eftabli/hed fatt, that the
body of a patient who during life could give no in
fection/yet when a corpse, be suddenly rendered
capable of so doing in a great degree. The com
miitce are of opinion from taking into their confi
■ deration the present ffate of the health of the
city, the uncommon degree of heat in the
weather, and the lengthy period that is yet
to elapse, before that fcafon arrives, which is
nftialiy observed to chcck the progress of autumnal
"diseases, that great care and circumfpeftion are ne
cessary. Moderation, regularity and cleanliness,
ire efpccially recommended. The cleanliness of the
streets, yard*, cellars, and markets, and the rcmo
val of all putrefcent matter, are objects of very
great importance, and ought to be particularly at
tended to, especially in tlrofe parts of the city which
are contiguous to our eallern waters.
