British commerce. But, will this take away the necessity for British goods on the continent, or in any other quarter where they are now, in ordinary consumption? Not at all. It can operate, only as a boon to our ship-owners. It must restore to them, some part of that carrying trade which had passed to neutrals, because neutrals could perform it cheaper. It must enhance the prices to the French, and other foreigners, by increas ing the expense of freight, insurance, and other contingencies.-This is all. -It will not even encourage the institution of manufactures abroad, to rival ours. The obstacles of the wars on the continent are too insurmountable. It cannot but prove teizing to the Anglo-Americans: and it must tend to enflame their previous irritations against France.

Our trade to the Levant, and to the Black Sea, was threatened with some interruption by differences breaking out between Russia and Turkey. Hitherto it has not been disturbed in the Turkish ports. In the Italian seas, and on the coast of Barbary, it is suffciently active. Nor is it less so in the Portuguese ports, for the supply of Portugal, Spain, and the Brazils.

The country trade of the British in India, both that of the company, and that of private merchants, is constantly enlarged. From the Red Sea to the most eastern coast of Asia is its range. British goods, those of Abyssinia, Arabia, and Persia, those of Hindoostan, China, &c. are the subjects of its traffic. It carries its enterprizes a great way inland. It is incessantly enlarging the Oriental markets for British manufactures.

The agricultural colony at Botany Bay is advancing gradually into a great mart for both British and East India produce. It is expected that the colonists of that settlement may be shortly able to furnish, from hides and wool, hemp and flax, their share in the Southern Whale Fishery, and from the part they may take in the fur-trade between India, and the north-west coast of America,-exports sufficient to repay for all the imports which the progress of the colony demands.

It is proposed, as an object highly important in a commercial view, to make a small establishment, on the now almost depopulated island of Otaheite; and to render it useful in the navigation to and from Botany Bay, as a place where ships may procure abundant supplies of pork and vegetables. The King of Owhyhee is making himself master of the other Sandwich Isles; is improving them to the greatest prosperity of agriculture and population; is ambitious to make them seats of manufactures and commerce; and even proposes to open a trade to Nootka Sound, and to Bengal.

The trade for furs to the north-west coast of America is entirely, or almost entirely, in the hands of the subjects of the United States. VOL. I. [Lit. Pan. Jan. 1807.1

It is lucrative. India and China are the places of sale for the furs. One should think, that it might have been shared by British subject:. But, our Canada fur trade is profitable; as is, likewise, that of the Hudson's Bay company.

The progress of the Anglo American conmerce deserves particular notice. The United States avail themselves, every day, more of their extent of sea-coast, their great rivers, their ship-timber and all their other advantages for navigation and commerce. They trade directly to our establishments in the East; and supply not only America, but even Europe with East-India commodities. They are, at the present time, carriers of the greater part of imports to the value of between nine and ten millions sterling, which America receives, annually, from Great Britain and Ireland. They have long carried on a vast trade to the French and Spanish West-Indies. They acquire continually more of the provision and lumber trade of our British sugar colonies.

The commercial intercourse between London and Ireland is, now, in full activity. The exchange with Dublin is but at 12 per cent, 34 above par, against Ireland. The imports from Ireland into the port of London, in the 14 days, ending December 5th, were 40 tons of beef; 595 tons butter; 40 tons bacon; 10 tons paper; 40 cwt. bees wax; 24,830 gallons of Irish brandy; 1,100,000 quills; 553,625 yards of Irish linen. Of these articles there are so many, not in raw produce, but in different states of manufacture, as to evince, that, if the political turbulence of their country were once entirely at rest, the Irish might quickly enrich themselves by manufacturing industry, to a degree that should leave them nothing to envy in the manufacturing wealth and activity of Great Britain.

The 3 per cents, now fluctuate between 58 and 59. The necessity that many stockholders are under, to sell out more or less, for the payment of their Christmas bills, is supposed to have been the chief cause of the late decline in the prices of Stock. The late disappointments at Hamburg have aided this effect. It is, besides, natural, however moderate the loan immediately wanted for the service of Government, that the expectation of such a loan, should operate, in some sort, to the depretiation of the present Stocks. Omnium, a few months since, at 13 per cent, prem. is now below 1 per cent premiun. The following facts are interesting in the review of the fluctuations of our stocks since 1792. 3 per cent Consol.
