Shanghai. Sir--The Secretary bries neknowledged on the 27th nitino your letter of the 24th, and since tium the Members of the Committee hare considered the proposal of Euperbi Maritime Customs, with regard to Drawbacks no re-exported goods, which you love submit- fel to them for consideration of the Chamber, I have now the honor to state Lo you the ananiona opinion of the Committee, which is aat ns, the term of the British and German Treaties very clearly provide for the issue of Drawbacks of duty on re-exported goods, and as very groc inconvenience and loss bark been sasta bed by Importers in consegɛenes of the Feful of the Gustongs to issue lay comis iry Bertificates after the lapas of treive mouibs. from the date of importation, the falfilment ia their integrity of the Treaty slipulations abon d Dow be claimed.
The ongenoot appended to Mr. Hart's pro- position for extension of the time to two yeurs, vix, that after that period unch case aball be considered. as it arises under a agateri which aball berjust to the forchant, and at the atinie shall not interfere with the working of accounts," bus not been overlooked, but the Commitico concise that this stipulation in plies an inversion of the proper tuis applicable to special cases which way theater, an inter Zerenco either with the safety of the Resoute or the working of the Chatons' acetunts,
It recte obvious that the burthen of proving the existence of an exceptional necessity to as peed privileges conferred by Treity should be thrown upon the Customs, and inconsistent with justice that the Importer abould in cacb application for Drorlicks, si proposed by Mr. Hart, be called open to show that the examine of his legal right will not be inconvenient to the urnagyngentefiho Unstam-house Accounts. The Coumisee, okvir, are quite unable to anduratau! why adequats protection to the Kerete. nd pioperis rangement of account should be dependent upon an arbitrary uita- tion of the period during which Drawbacka con ba freely claimed, and saggea that very ginple regulations regarding the forns of application, and the conservancy of marks nod.umbers on the original packages wid subce to do all which He furt proposes to effect by an abrogation of Tron-right
