RECIPROCITY WITH THE BRITISH N. A. PROVINCES.

The people of this country generally have but little idea of the extent. iinportancs, or advantages, of the trade and reciprocal interests w ich for the few years pst have been springing up be- tween the United States and the bordering dependencies of the United Kingdom of Great Britain. When, taking the Province of Nova Scotia alone, and then only a portion of it, it is stated, that through in single at ait which separates one part of the province from the other, often thousand vessels which annually pass through the Gut of Canon, more than one half consists of American tonnage, some adequate estimate may be formed of the magnitude of the interests involved in the existence of amicable commercial relations between the tiovuinnients of the Provinces and the States.

The extensive fisheries of Nova Scotia, prosecuted with so little enterprise by its isiliabitants, others a tempting, and in many cases a richly reiiiunerating reward to the more energetic efiiirts of our adventurous fishermen.

Nova Scntin forms the western boundary of the mouth of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. The waters of the Atlantic wash its south- ern nnd western shores. and in a northerl direction, the Bay of Fundy shoots up to within twelve miles olythe Gulf of St. Law- rence. and by means of ii contemplated canal, will soon min- gle its waters therewith. This Province, pliiced by nature in such a coinninnding position, and whose commercial and maritime tid- vnntages are already be inning to he felt and acknowledged, can boast not only ofits fuci ities of water coinmuiiicatioti and enviable site, butdrnws its richest treasure from the broad deep, by which it is almost surruumlezl.

Its niaclierel lialtery is not only unsurpassed, but not equalled liy any in the world. While fisheries ofsalnion, cod, herring and tile- wives, form staple and reinuncraiiiig articles of export.

On the coast of Nova Scotia, and that too within the limits by which they are forbidden by the Treaty of I818 to enter, are taken the greater quantity of mackerel, by which our Fisheruiien draw that bounty the Government so benelicenlly nfibrds them as an in- ducement to their hardy and enterprising efi'orts. The Govern- ment of Nova Scotin has hitherto done but little towards the pro- tection of its valuable fisheries, and our fishermen have actively and lndurlrlousl profited by that circumstance. Were it likely that this atiite o tliingn would continue for any length oftinie, we might fold our unit! rind reap the fruits of our resent advantageous posi- tion; but if the time is near at hand, wlien the privileges we now enjoy, are to be qliestioried, it behaves our people and government to ascertain the extent of our fishing and iiiaritiinc privileges, and iii:iint.iin them.

The subject of reciprocity of trade in certain articles of agricultu- nil produce both munufuctured articles and raw materials, between this country and the British North American Provinces. has occu- pied the attention of their several governments for two or three years. Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick, have not been thornuglily considered, or the advantages to this country properly brought out. It is not my intention at present to enter into the consideration of the general eiibject, but I may observe, that the non-acceptance by Congress of the proposition from the Provinces, has been received in the Provinces in a spirit that will likely pro- duee lflflillufua, hostile in some respects, to the interests of this country.

The shutting up of the St. Lawrence by Canada against our citizens has been threatened; and durin the next sitting of Parlia- ment (in ii few weeks) that question will form a subject of serious consuleration. What the result may be, I will not now venture to predict; but invite attentionto what has been done in Nova Scotia. Our Government would not likely accede to the propositions of the British Provinces, unless upon fair terms of reciprocal advan- tage; and it isnecessary that the subject should be well under- stood on both sides. The British Provinces would send us fish and a riculiursl produce and raw materials, and take back our Immu uclured goods. We might probably, at first view, expect our manufactures to be admitted duty free, were we to admit the fish, agricultural produce, die... of the Provinces free of duty. The Provinces, must, however, levy a duty for revenue upon all maiiufiictured articles, whether coming from England, this, or any other country. We are now allowed to enter some of the Provinces with our manufactures, by paying this revenue duty, (in the large majority of classes not over six to seven per cent.), whilst we levy ri protective duly offrom twenty to thirty per cenl., and that upon agricultural produce, raw materials, &c., which we absolutel require, and which this country cannot supply in sufiicient quanti- ties at fiiir rate. To protect our msinufiiciures. has always been our policy; but I cannot understand, why we should liiy a protect- ing duty upon raw miiterials, and when the imposition of that duty is calculated to restrict the exportation of our manufactured goods. Our proximity to the Provinces, gives us largely the advantage of any exporting country in Europe, and if suitable encouragement be given by us, in adniitling the productions of the Provinces, either free or at it revenue duty, a large and profitable trade will imme- diately spring up. The addition of three millions to the number of the present consumers of our manufactures would be very soon felt and appreciated, and assist us in our competition with transat- lantic tnanuliictures. '1 his is a question embraced in our general coniinercinland protective policy, and requires to be approached with great care and deliberation, and were it not for other consi- dcrflllonl. would not now be touched upon. With it, however, is connected another of paramount importance as res to our fishing interests, and tlils communication has been cause b an article in one of the lots Boston papers, touching the report o u conimittoo of the House of Assembly of Nova Scotin, of the right of that Province to controul the passage of the Gut of Canon. Having carefully read and considered that report, it appears to be conclu- sive as to the right vested in the Legislature of that country. The report breathes a temperate, but decisive spirit; is based upon the opinions of the highest legal authorities in En land and this coun- try, urid is in conformity with the principle a ways asserted by our Government. We cannot. therefore, with any decency, claim by the law of nations, a right in foreign waters; when we would not yield t| similiir one to foreigners in ours. We should, therefore, look at the question in its proper light, and whilst maintaining our own to the letter, respect the rights of others.

If Nova Scuiia can legally deny as the right of passage through the Gut of Canon. serious loss and disiippoinment will result to our fishermen in the Gulfofz-’t. Lawrence. and they will, to a great extent, have to abandon that fruitful fishery; as in the autumn months, to sail round Cu e Breton would be attended with so much delay. danger and loss, tint the tishery in the Gulf would soon be- come totally’ unprofitable, and consequently would have to be abandoned. The reasons given in the report are certainly plausible -I think, sutlicient to warrant that Province in refusing us the benefit of that provision. If our fishermen are continually trespas- sing on their grounds, it is a good argument in favour of their adopt- ing any legitimate means of prevention. If their fishermen were using ll strai° in our territory, and abused the privilege of passage, by destroying or damaging our fishery, we would bejustified in preventing such being done, by the most effectual and cheap pro- cess.

Nova Scotia has otfered, and I believe. is still willing to place our fishermen on a footing of equality with her own; provided her fish- ermen are permitted to enter our with their fish upon the same terms as ours. The advantage 0 this arrangement to our fisher- men would be incaleulabls. They are now obliged to dodge about from place to place for shelter, and the destruction of life and pro- perty is far greater than is at all believed. A great many of our vessels are seized and condemned, and the fear of seizure keeping thsni continually shilling about, obliges them to spend double the the time in making their fare of fish. Were the allowed to land and cure and malts their fish, more than treble t s quantit might be produced h the same number of .essels. and the dry would be ofs much not quality. In addition to which, they might have their regular fisliiug eutsbliahmoets, and always be on the ground to corn with their provincial rivals.
