Bishop, deceased, for the benefit ol tbe heirs and creditors. DUDLEY" BISHOP, Adea’r. 4 November IS Id 4m snew causi. by the iicxtt.rin of this court, why Hie above dudions of this Country as liecos.sHry to hor colon es, they must he received upon princi ples of just rec.procity ; ami further, that il is making an invidious and Unfriendly distinc tion, to open her colonial ports to the vessels of other nation^, and clobe them against those of the United Si ales Antecedently to 1794, a port ion of our pro ductions was admitted into the colonial islands of Grea< -BritainJby particular concession, limi ted to the term of one year, but renewed Irom vear lo year. In the transportation of these productions, however, our vessels tverenot al lowed to er gage ; this being n privilege rc served to British shipping, hy which alnue our. produce could betaken to the islands, and theirs brought to jus in return. From New foundland, and her continental possessions, gll our productions, as well as our vessels, were concluded, with occasional relaxations, by which, in sessions of distress, the former were admitted in British bottoms. - By the treaty of,1794, she offered to con cede to us, for a limited time, the right of ear- rying'jlo her West India possessions, in our vessels not exceeding seventy tons burden, ,.nd upon the.same terms as British vessels, any productions of the United States which Bnti-l» vessels might import therefrem.v. But ;h' s privilege was eonplei with conditions which are supposed to have led to its rejec tion by the Senate-;- that is, that American vessels should l^wl their return cargoes in {he Uhited States only : and, moreover, that they houtd, during the continuance. ef the-pnvi <-gf, be precluded from carrying molasses, -ugar, cocoa, or cotton either irom those is- lans or from the United States*, to any other j«irl ol the world Great Britain readily con sented to expunge this article from the trea ty* and subsequent attempts to arrange the terms of the trade, either by treaty stipula lions or concerted legislation, hav ng failed, ji has been successively suspended and uH*> w cd. according to the varying legislation of the par ties. The following are the prominent points which have, in laier years, separated the two Government. Besides a restriction, whereby alt importati< ns into her colonies in American vessels are confined to our own psoducis car ried hence, a restriction to which it does no' appear (hat we have ever objected, a leading object on the part of Great Britain has been to {in vent us from becoming the carriers of B'i- tish Vyes.t 1ml a commodities to any other < •'uiitiy Unity iaui u«n. On (he part u| tiie United States, it has been contended, 1st Th-it the subject should be regulated by trea tv stipulations in preference to separate legis- iati >n ; 2d. That our production*, when im ported into tiio colonies in question, should not he subject to higher duties than the pro ductions of the mother country, or of her other colonial possessions; And 3d. That our vessels should - be allowed to participate in the circuitous trade between the United des and d fforeut parts of the British domin ions. The first point, after having been, for a long time, strenuously insisted upon by Great Bri tain. was t»iven up by the act of Parliament of- July, 1325 ; all vessels suff red to trade wttb tbe colonies being permitted Jo clear from thence with any articles which British vessels might export ; and proceed to any part of the world, Great Britain and b«T dependencies alone excepted. On our pan, each of the above points had, iu succession, been exph eitly abandoned hi negotiations proceeding ■hat of whicli the result is now announced. The arrangement secures .to tbe United States every advantage asked by them, and which the state of ibe negotiation allowed u* lo insist upon. The trade' will be placed upon a footing decidedly nv>re favorable to tin* country than any one which it ever stood; and our commerce mid navigation will e joy, id tin colonial ports of Great Britain, every privi lege aliowfd to other nations. Thafthe prosperity of the country, so far as it depends on thi* trade, will be greatly promo ted by the new arrangement, there can be no doubt. Independently of the more obviou* advantages of an open and*direct intercnur i- 0 3 osi aT--TKRBM6iVlIi f“ 11 *»lb oths 1 consequences of a higher value *» hat whicli has been carried on since tbe mutual interdict under all the expense and inconvenience uua voidably incident to it, would have been in supportably onerous, had it not been, in a great degree, lightened bv concerted evasions in the mode ol making the transhipments at what are called the neutral ports. These in directions are inconsistent with the dignity 01 nations that have so many motives, not only to cherish feelings of mut ual friendship, but to maintain such relations as will stimulate tlnir respective cit z--ns «&d subjects to efforts oi direct, open, and "honorable competition only, and ; reserve them from the influence of seduc tive and vitiating.circumstances. When'your preliminary interposition w*;s asked a! the c.lose.of the last session, a copy of ti er ins; ruct ions under which Mr MeLiinu hay acted, -: ©get her witlrthe communications which .ha.f af (fiat time passed between him and the B iaM) G .v.ernmenl, was laid before y*.-u. Al •in.ugh there has*-not been any thing in the fets-of the two governments which requires -ecreev, it wap thought most proper,' in the thon state of the * negotiation, to make that communication a confidential one. So soon however, as the evidence of execution on the i»art of Great Britain is received; the vvhoie matter shall be laid before you. when it will bt: '*een that the apprehension which appears tc have suggested one of the provisions of the act parsed at your last session, that the resto ration of the trade tn question might be con nected with other subjects, and was sought t< be obtained at the sacrifice of the public inte rest in other particulars, was nholiv unfound ed; and that the change which has taken place in the views of the British Government has been induced by considerations as honorable to both parties us, I trust, the result will prove beneficial. This desirable result was, it will be seen, greatly promoted by the liberal and confiding provisions of the act of Congress of the last session, by which our ports were, upon the re ception and annunciation by the President ol the required assurance on the part oi Great Britain, forthwith openeiFto her vessels, he fore the arrangement could be carried into ef fect on her port; pursuing, in this act of pro spective legislation, a similar course to that adopted by Great Britain, in abolishing, by her act of Parliament, in 1825, a rcstriction then existing, and permitting pur vessels to clear from the colonies, on their return voyages, for any foreign country whatever, before British vessels had been relieved from five restriction imposed by our law, of r. turning directly from the United States to the colonies—a reirtno tion wliich she required and expected that we should abolish. Upon each occasion, a limited and temporary advantage-ha& been given to the opposite party, but an advantage of no im portance io comparison with the restoration ot mutual confidence and good fe* lings, and the ultimate establishment of the trace upon fair principles. It gives me unleigue.d pleasure to assure voothat this negotiation has been, throughout, characterized by the most frank and friendly -pirit on the part of Great Britain, and conclu Jed in a manner strongly indicative of a sin cere desire to cultivate the best relations with the United Stales. To reciprocate thin dispo? sirionto the fullest extent of my abjhvj, duty which I shall deem it a privilege to dts* charge. Although the result is, itself,,the best com mentary on the services rendered (o his coun try by our Minister at the Court of St James, it would be doing violence to my feelings were I to dismiss the *ul>jecJ without expressing the very high s«-nse 1 entertain of the talent and exertions which have been displayed by turn on h<* occasion. The injury to the commerce of the United Slates resulting from the exclu-i^n of our vessels from the Black Sea, and the previ* us footing o! mere sufferance upon which even Ihe limited trade enjoyed hy us with Turkey has hitherto been placed, have, fora long time, beeo a source of much solicit u<L to this Gov ernment, and several endeavors have been made to obtain a better state ol things. Sen sible of the importance of the object, ( felt it my duty to leave no proper means unemployed to acquire for our flag the same privileges that are enjoyed by the principal powers of Europe. Commissioners were, consequently, appointed, to open n negotiation with tiie Suhhme Pori** Not long alter the member of the coaitntssion who went directly from the Uni ed State s had sailed the account of the treaty ut Adrianuplc* by wh.ch one of the objects in view was sup posed to be secured, reached f his country.—* The Black Sea wa3 understood to be opened to us. Under the supposition that this was. the case, the additional facilities to be derived from the establishment of commercial regula tions with tiie Porte were deemed ol sufficient importance lo require a prosecution of the ne gotiation us originally contemplated. It was therefore persevered m, and resulted in a trea ty. which will forthwith be laid beiore the Sen ate - . ^ By its provisions, a free passage is secured, without limitation of time, to the vessels of ihe United States, to and Irom the Black Sea, including the navigation thereof; and our trade with Tuikey is place d on J he footing of the most tavorj-d nations. T6v' latter is an ar rangement wholly independent of the treaty of Adrianople; and the dormer derives much val ue, m>i only from lire increased security which, under any circumstances, it would give to the right in question, but from the fact, ascertain ed in the cour-e 01 the negoiiation, th;d, by he construction put upon that treaty by Tur- kny, t e article relating to tho passage of tha B<»>ph'»rus si confined to nations having trea- : es with the Porte.

Respect tor that empire, and confidence in its friend»h r p towards the United States, have been so long entertained on our part, and so carefully cber<siied by (he present Emperor and hi* illustrious predecs- **or, as to h..ve become incorporated with the public sentiment of the United S ates. No means will be left unemployed on tny part to promote these salutary feelings, and those improvements of which the commercial inter' course between the two countries is suscepti ble, and which have den veil increased impor tance from our treaty with the sublime Purte. I sincerely regret to inform you that our Minister lately commissioned to that court, on whose distinguished tabnts and great ex* perience in public affairs I place great reliance, ias been compelled hy extr. me ihdrspovilioa to exercise a privilege, which, id considera tion of the extent to which his constitution had been impaired in the public service, was committed to his discretion, of leaving leropo- rufily his post for the advantage of a more g3- trial clunate. If,'as it is to be hoped, the improvement of bis health will be such as to justify him in do ing so, he will repair to St. Peiervbargl:, ana resume the discharge of his official duties I have received the most satisfactory assurance Mint in the na an tune, the pubhc mtere;ts in that quarter will be preserved tr»>u» prejudice, by the intercourse ivhich he wril continue, through the Secretary of Legation, wi;h the Riis-ian cabinet.
