London,
17th May, 1811.
SIR,
The Lords Commissioners of His Majesty's Treasury having had under
consideration the expediency of placing in the Military Chest all sums of money
that may be collected abroad, on the public account, for the purpose of being
remitted to England by the Agents of Government, the Agents taking Bills drawn
by the Commissars on the station on their Lordships for the amount at par, I am
directed to acquaint you, that it is their Lordships' intention that all Sums
of Money whatever, which may be so collected, shall be lodged in the Military
Chest, to be applied to the service of the Extraordinaries of the Army; and you
will give your Bills upon the Treasury, at par, for the amount of such Sums as
may be from time to time paid over in the manner herein directed.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your most humble servant,
(signed) J. W. GORDON.
Commissary-General BULLOCK,
Barbados.
Since the publication of the last Number of the Royal Gazette, our
river has been entered by several British, Barbadian, and American, vessels;
but we have not been furnished with any intelligence of importance, if we
except the melancholy report of the hourly-expected death of our beloved
Sovereign.
We understand that a French store-ship has been captured, by a
British vessel, at the mouth of the Chesapeake!

N.B. - We do not hear of another Meeting as yet; but, when the hospitality of
the Trenches, towards their numerous visitors, is remembered,
(who were not content with surrounding them with every delicacy
which could gratify the senses, but would not let them depart without the most
conspicuous marks of favour twas in their power to bestow) Races must be -
the order of the day!!
To the Editor of the Royal Gazette.
SIR,
Having had my curiosity stimulated by different accounts of the
Panorama, I came to town last week on purpose to see it; and having, in the
early part of my life, devoted much time to the pursuit of the arts, I send you
a short critique on the subject: for I think, with Pope,
"Be niggard of advice on no pretence,
For the worst of avarice is that of sense,
With mean complacence ne'er betray your trust,
Nor be so civil as to prove unjust.
Fear not the anger of the wise to raise:
Those best can bear reproof who merit praise"
How the artist could have selected such a miserable subject for
his pencil, as that of Stabroek, I am at a loss to account for; there being
nothing in the view that is either sublime or beautiful, except, indeed, those
grand specimens of architecture, the Guard-house and the English church, but
which form a very small portion of the subject. However, the representation of
the whole view is extremely well depicted, and the general effect of the sky
admirable, there being great variety in the clouds (both with regard to colour
and design) and evidently painted with the execution of a master. The
perspective is likewise very correct, an excellent specimen of which may be
seen in looking up the American Street. Thus much for general remarks on the
subject; but when I came to look minutely at the picture, I then discovered
that it was a very unequal performance; some parts evidently painted with great
negligence, and others as spiritedly finished: as, for example, looking towards
Kingston, the trees and grass appear as if they were painted with a mop, and
the artist at the time overcharged with grog; but, on
looking up the river, and over Werk and Rust, there the eye is delighted with
something like painting, as the representation of that part of the view is
exquisitely true to nature, and the large tree at the corner of the Union
Coffee-house is painted with much force, but certainly not finished enough,
considering it is so much in the fore-ground, for some of the leaves appear like
dumplings stuck together. The river, on the whole, is well
represented, the reflections of the clouds on the water being very natural, and
the sun shining in some places on the water is beautifully expressed: but there
are not vessels enough, which otherwise would make the scene more interesting;
and the few that are, appear like Dutch toys; there are
several sail also coming in, and no signal at the Block-house, which is
certainly a great blunder - indeed, the picture seems to me as if it was done
by a painter subject to fits, there being such an olio of
beauties and defects. However, it makes food for criticism, and has been the
chief cause of my sending you already these few remarks, which if agreeable,
you shall have more very soon - but with more vinegar than
oil!
Dear Sir, your's truly, &c.
Q. R.
From the Barbados Papers.
At a meeting of the Planters and Merchants interested in the Sugar
Manufactory and Trade, at Mason-hall, on Tuesday, August 20th, the Hon. John
Barrow was called to the chair.
The Chairman addressed the gentlemen on the importance of the
present meeting, for the object of which he referred them to Dr. Holder.
Dr. Holder then rose, and entered into a detail of facts tending
to prove the distresses of the West India planter and merchant, and represented
the expediency and the necessity of a petition to Parliament, without loss of
time, for relief. He then moved, that certain Resolutions be taken into
consideration.
Mr. Carrington, Mr. Mayers, and Dr. Renn Hamden, Jun. successively
supported the motion, and the same passed nem con.
It was then, after some discussion, unanimously resolved,
1st. That the acknowledged importance of the West India trade to
the commercial interests, and the navigation system, of Great Britain, the
immense amount of British capital embarked in the West Indies, and the revenue
derived from the sugar colonies, demand protection and aid from the
mother-country.
2d. That the distresses of the West India planters have increased
to an extent hitherto unexampled, and the effects which the disuse of sugar in
the distilleries has already produced are such as to excite in our minds the
justest and most alarming apprehensions, that nothing short of the speediest
relief can enable the planter to preserve his capital from the most rapid
deterioration.
3d. That admitting the abolition of the Slave Trade to be a
measure founded on the general principles of humanity, and therefore not to be
shaken by considerations of lesser importance, this fact, however, is certain,
- the present population of our negroes can only be kept up by an unremitting
care and liberal attention to their comforts. While we feel and acknowledge the
truth of this proposition, we see, with extreme perplexity and concern, that
the depreciated value of our produce, and the heavy and disproportioned imposts
on it, must not only stifle every present hope of redeeming our affairs, but
will operate as a severe check to the slave population; as they must deprive us
of the means of affording our negroes many essential necessities, and subject
them to great privations.
4th, That the use of sugar in the distilleries produced
considerable relief to the planter, by giving a vent to 770,000 cwts. of sugar
of an inferior and middling quality, which now is only vendible at the most
ruinous prices; and that the distillation of sugar, (estimated at a quantity
equal to half the home-consumption), while it aided the commercial and
navigation-system, benefited in a proportionate degree the general interests of
the empire. The converse of this proposition must ensue in consequence of the
exclusion of sugar from the distilleries, and thus the continental-policy of
our enemies will be most effectually promoted.
5th, That it is reasonable to demand the admission of the use of
sugar in the distilleries, when barley and other grain bear that scarcity-price
at which their importation into Great Britain is admitted, especially as it has
been proved, before Parliament, that more the £ 30,000,000 sterling has been
paid by Great Britain for foreign grain during the thirteen years preceding
1804; and that, in 1810, the value of grain imported amounted to more than £
7,000,000 sterling, the greater part of which is purchased from our enemies.
6th, That, in the event of sugar being consumed by British
distillation, were the restriction taken off which now impedes the export of
corn from Great Britain to the colonies, corn could be imported into the West
Indies for the use of their inhabitants, and of the British soldiers and
sailors stationed in them, to the great advantage of the British landholders
and merchants.
7th, That a partial export of sugar from the West Indies was
formerly allowed in American bottoms, the prohibition of which has proved
extremely injurious to the planters, who receive those stores so essential to
the existence of their plantations from the United States, to pay for which
money is now drained from the colonies; and which, if retained, would operate
to the manifest advantage of government, by raising the premium of exchange on
bills. Hence it was recommended, in the year 1808, by a Committee of the House
of Commons, that the planters should be allowed to barter sugars with the
Americans, to the value of the stores which they received from them; and it has
been proved, before a Committee of the House of Commons, in 1807, that British
America is ill suited to supply the wants of the planters, who are furnished
with only one-tenth of their stores from thence; the value of these stores from
the United States has been computed at 25,000 hhds. of sugar, the vent for
which would afford a great relief to the planter, and prevent a reduction of
his crops, which, under existing circumstances, must ultimately ensue to his
ruin, and to the consequent injury of the ship-owner and merchant; on the other
hand, the admission of this barter would contribute to redeem him from a rapid
approach to a state of insolvency, and enable him to pay those debts which
would otherwise be lost to his British correspondent.
8th, That another mode of relief, at once obvious and just, is
the reduction of the duties under a regulation, proportioning them to the
average price of sugar; - since it was proved, before the Committee of the
House of Commons, that the expences we pay on every cwt. of sugar which we
produce is 20s. 6d. sterling for our stores from Europe, island taxes,
(exclusive of the 4 1/2 per cent. duty), and salaries, and 16s. per cwt. for
freight, insurance, and mercantile charges, with the addition of 27s. per cwt.
duty, making the total of our charges, without any nett profit to us, amount to
62s. 6d. sterling per cwt. of sugar; it is therefore clear, that, when the
average price of sugar, exclusive of duty, is 36s. 6d. per cwt. we actually
derive no rent for our lands and perishable capital, nor any compensation for
our personal labours. Hence it is self-evident, that, as the planter can only
afford to pay the present duties when sugars are at the average price of 50s.
per cwt. exclusive of the duty, he has a just claim to a proportionate
reduction of it as the price falls below that average; and it is reasonable to
assume, that the reduction of the duties would cause an increased
home-consumption, and a consequent saving of the bounties paid by Government on
exportation, to the maintenance and preservation of the present revenue.
9th, That, in claiming relief, we rest on this important truth,
that the interest of the mother-country is identified with that of the
colonies, and that the loss of the planter is a loss of that of British industry
and capital, which now produces a revenue of £ 3,000,000 sterling on sugar, and
a consumption of British produce and manufactures to the amount of £ 6,000,000
sterling in the West Indies; which must be greatly reduced, if not annihilated,
unless the present distresses of the proprietors of sugar plantations are
promptly relieved.
10th, That a committee of twelve gentlemen be appointed to
prepare a petition to Parliament and to the Throne, and to carry into effect
the general objects of the meeting; of which number, any five, with the
chairman of this meeting, shall be deemed competent to transact business.
11th, That the above Resolutions be published in the principal
English and colonial newspapers, and that the committee be instructed to
communicate them to all other West India bodies, whose co-operation, at the
same time, shall be earnestly requested.
12th, Resolved, That the committee be instructed to apply, by
petition, to the Legislature, requesting that a fund be provided to meet the
necessary expences incurred in carrying the objects of this meeting into
effect.
In pursuance of the 10th Resolution, the following gentlemen were
chosen as a committee:

Hon. John. F. Alleyne
Samuel Hinds
John H. Skeete
John A. Beckles
John Beckles
Henry E. Holder, Esq.

From this nett balance of £ 27 6s.3d. is
to be deducted the cost of the ten casks in the West Indies, which, at 30s
sterling each, is £ 15, so that the planter netted on his shipment £ 12 6s. 3d.
sterling, from which is also to be deducted the insurance, an item not charged
in the account of sales.
MISCELLANEOUS.
The sloop Thrifty, arrived at Barbados on Thursday the 5th inst.
from Antigua, gives information of further depredations committed on British
commerce by the Duc de Dantzic French privateer. On her passage, the Thrifty
fell in with the ship Rachael, of London, bound to Jamaica, which had been
captured by the above vessel, and after plundering her, the enemy gave up the
ship to the crew, as those on board the Rachael stated, but the informant
suspects their being Frenchmen. The prize is reported to be a fine, large ship;
and, as her rigging was much injured, and the sails appeared perforated with
shot, it is supposed she made a brave but ineffectual defence against the
enemy's superiority. The commander of the Duc de Dantzic continues to boast of
his good fortune, ironically observing, that notwithstanding the looked-for
vigilance of our cruisers, he had, within the last ten or fourteen days (this,
perhaps, is an erroneous account, as to the number of days - he may have meant,
since he left France), taken fifteen vessels of different descriptions; and
during the whole cruise, he had not fallen in with a British man of war!!!
President Madison has issued a proclamation for a meeting of the
American Congress on the 4th November next; but it is more than probable there
will be a necessity for an earlier Convention, in the event of Sir Joseph
Yorke's squadron making its appearance off that coast. - It is said that Mr.
Foster has been received with every mark of attention; but it is added, that he
had deemed it prudent to suspend the purposes of his mission, until he shall be
further informed by his Government - as the affair of the President frigate
leads him to anticipate an entire change of feeling towards the United States,
to what his instructions from Ministers, on leaving England, authorised his
acting upon.
DEATHS, &c.
Independent of the death of J. Cooper, Esq. Clerk of the Check in
the Ordnance Department, and of W. Harris, Esq. we have to announce the decease
of Mrs. Edward Austin, and the unfortunate circumstance which attended her
brother, Mr. M. Austin, who, on riding out, to give some directions respecting
the funeral, was thrown from his gig, and a broken leg is the consequence.
LOST.
A Red-Morocco POCKET-BOOK, with several letters directed to A. C.
BOODE, Esq. besides seven or eight Joes in gold, and a Colonial note of f 220.
