German Trade.
M\r.-Franeis Muller, .forly, &7 amberofthe.BavP4 riu Assembly,, has published in acmo-nt of the trade S Gersaezy in 1824; iich, if bis Meport be comTect, is m s very distressed stuation. Acpiding to fis statement, the Russian empire, with which the greater part of Poleand is incorporated, hass for some years plast becti cut eff'frorr commercial intercourse with Germany by cnstom hwus regulations and toll; and at tne present.moment a zecond line of tolls is forming on the Polis fottier& Hungary is in like manner closed against Germrny. IThe present situation of Etitopean 'Turkey affords no secitiry, a.nd its trade is ifea inthei.i-ns of thie } nglih and the Wenct&; The Lembardo.Venetlsn tingdom hbs, since i817,- bee- shut against every tbiihg lWihl .iJs n4t Austrinn. The cae tom-hoase laws of the Papal States dae eitriemely severe Tuscany, Parma, and Modena have r& aiiseig equs h1ostile to trade. Since the beginning of the pres6ht 1eas; -Waples and Piedmunt have canried their nrohibitary meag 'ores to such an extent, that even dermau linen is nS longer admnitted Spain and Portugal are no longer favourable markets, for recent events have destroyea private as well as public credit. France has, since l7o, when she removed all inlatnd duties, followed the same- system, and will not depart from it antil her agiculture.e manufactures, and commerce be able to maintain an advan_ tageous competition with all other nations. Switzerland suffers like Germany, and two cripples cannot weU help each other along. In the kingdom of the Netherhlndxs strict prohibitions against the admission of German produce exist. Great Britain rejects every thing, or at least ad- mits only articles which she can manufacture better than the Germans. The commerce of Denmnark and Sweden is unimportant to Gennany, as much of what we could give them they already possess. It bence follows, that German commerce in Europe has everywhere custom-house prc- bibitions to contend with. AU natural relations are dis. turbied by artificial regulations, which can only be evaded by smuggling. Htaving come to this conclusion, the attthor nevertheless deprecates the pursuit of contraband ttade, attended as it constantly is by immoral habits and endlesa cIlimes. GERMAN TRAVE.
