DE WITH CHINA - The Ho hopes that were entertained
The year 1895, the the at Cuplo der the flag of the Netherlan be more considerable than in the preording year, have not been realized. Only five Netherlands afins Wild cargoer of 1sa have sailed direct from Chma to the ports of the Netherlands, and woolliers have returned by way in Java For want of ather- Jende vertels was necessary to have recourse to an American ship to and to the Netherlands a cargo of 10 000 sheets of too. In July 1846, the freight for the Netherlands was 130 florins, with 15 per cont, for vessels going to Java. In December, 165 florins, with 15 per cent, were paid for freigh to Rotterdam; and, at the time of the Chinese new year, 480 florins, with 15 per cent, were offered, and this and the any freight was undoubtedly paid; for the cargo sent by that American vessel of 200 ton burden, sent from Macao to Batavia, from 6,000 to 7,000 florins were paid. These high freights are generally offered in the season from October to April. Statements we hope will induce the merchants to send a greater number of ships, since freights may be had for Ma- nila and Bali, as well as the Netherlands. "Ibex portation of ted in Dutch ships was less in 1845 than is the preceding year. Bills of the Netherlands could not be negotiated at Canton: None were 18- ken but such as were payable in London.

The me effective means at bringing about n direct communication between the Zollverein and les ont of Europe, would be, to prohibit the importation of their productions from European warehouses not belonging to Germany, the stine as is the case in England, according to Navigation cal, in which even British chips are not allowed to in- pert from European warehouses, wol belonging to England, any tosailantic, productions. But it does not appear adrieable," continues Von Roenne, "o have recourse to a remedy which would neceE- sarily create a violent revolution in the existing state of commerce; it might likewise not be well to prohibit the importation from European ware. houses, but to lay only heavier dalies on thein, Po in our aim, it would be necessary to ex- clude ships of a third action from the advantages granted to direct importitions; but, for more rea sors that one, it seems advisable for the interest of German shipping, that the law should favour only the national ships and the ships of such coun- tries as aro, by treaty or otherwise entitled to ach favour. It would then remain with us to give precedence to the colours of those countries that treat our colours on the same footing as their own, and we would keep in our funds the most powerful means for negotiating with such countries as have laws prejudicial to German commerce, and ship ping. Such a law would only injure the commerce and shipping of those countries that treated Ger- man commerce and shipping on unequal terms; and they could not reasonably complain of this, because they would possess the means of gaining all or a part of the advantages, by making ade. quate concessions on their part." If the Zollverem were to act upon this system, Holland, Hanover, and the Bente towns would find themselves in danger of losing their commerce with the Zellive- rein and their shipping interests would lose the advantages they gained from it Holland princi pally would feel very acutely the effects of such a law upon his monopolising colonial system.

But In nothing does it practice such evident deceit as in its articles upon political economy. As this paper is read more than any other German paper abroad, it is natural thei such false accounts get spread about there concern- ing the Zollverein. The fact is, that all those pa. pers, mentioned in our second article, which ad- here to the free trade system, have opposed all those abeard plans which came from Bavaria, Wurttem borg, and Baden, in short from the interior of a large continect, where nothing but agriculture is carried on, and where they can have no idea of ma ritime commerce.

Whilst dechning to lay upon the table of the House of Commons certain papers moved for, in reference to Poland as the three pawers — Austria Russia, and Prussia-held opinions cfferent from those entertained by England, Lord Palmerston di. stinctly stated, than the treaty of Vienna had been violated in the late transactions of Cracow, and that
must be orpheld, adding, that it would not be per titted to any Government to pick out with Doe hand the articles which it would observe of a treaty, and with the other the articles it would violate, and be hoped the Governments of Austria, Russia, and Prussia would recollect, that if the treaty of Vienna was not good on the Vistual, t would be equally Invalid on the Rhine and on the Po.

Of all the proposals which have been started by the followers of the protecline system, and which have already been mentioned, only the drawbacks have been taken into comande- ration by the governments during the last congress; but, all the mediatory proposals inade by Prakein and Saxony, to bring about a proper understanding. and to prevent the continual decade for higher protective duties on cotton yarns, foundered against the exorbitant duties which the three South German governments demanded. It is very likely, mag. al. most certain, that Prussia and Saxons will not again take the drawbacks into consideration.
