HC Deb 29 March 1804 vol 1 cc1105-74

At the end of each year, there are certain sums remaining in the hands of the Collectors and of the Receivers General, which have arisen from the revenues of the year: there are, also, bills, arising from the revenues of die preceding year, which have been transmitted to the Receivers General, but which, as they did not become due in that year, were brought to the account of the subsequent year. These two items constitute what are called the balances, and, together with the gross receipt of thy revenues of the year, form the whole amount of revenue to be expended or otherwise accounted for, within the year. The balances which remained on the 5th Jan. 1803, and which form part of that amount for the year ending on the 5th Jan. 1804, were £271,946. 16. 2¼ in the hands of Collectors; £669,165. 18. 0. in the bands of the Receivers General; and £450,839. 3. 2¼. in bills arising from the revenues of the year 1802, but not due until after the 5th of Jan. 1803

The gross receipt is the whole amount of the sums which have been collected, under each branch of the revenue, during the year. That received during the year ending on the 5th of Jan. 1804, amounts to £54,710,895. 8. 0. (see second column) and was collected at the average rate of £4, 11. 9. per centum.

From the joint produce of the balances remaining on the 5th Jan. 1803, and the gross receipts from that time to the 5th Jan. 1804 £3,322,028. 0. 0¼ were paid for re-payments, discounts, drawbacks and bounties of the nature of drawbacks, for the difference of exchange between Edinburgh and London, for allowances to the Universities for Almanacks, and for paper and parchment to stamp; £17,077. 3. 7. for the packet establishment, with the allowance to Ireland in lieu of packet postage, and for Irish postage received in Great Britain; and £1,955,368. 2. 11. for the charges of management.

These sums, deducted from the amount of the balances and gross receipt, leave a net produce of £50,808,373. 18. 10¼. (see third column) to be applied to national objects and to payments in the Exchequer. The average rate at which this sum was collected was £5. 4. 10. per centum.

From this net produce, £204,671. 10. 10¾ were paid on account of militia and deserters' warrants, provisional cavalry, and the defence of the realm, and other objects connected there with; £305,379. 19. 2¼ for bounties for promoting fisheries, linen manufactures, ? £36,909. 18. 1¼. for pensions out of the hereditary revenue, and perpetual pensions and stipends charged on the land revenue; 16,670. 4. 10½. towards improving his Majesty's woods and forests; £137,165. 9. 3. by virtue of warrants from the Barons of the Exchequer in Scotland, towards the support of the civil government of that part of the kingdom; and £64,712. 15. 11. for monies impressed in the hands of different persons, and advanced on account of the redemption of the land-tax. £48,707,131. 3. 11½. were, also, paid into the Exchequer. (See fourth column.)

All that remains after these expenditures should be paid into the Exchequer, but it generally happens that some portion of the revenues remains in the hands of Collectors, and Receivers, and some in bills which become due at a future period. The balances remaining on the 5th Jan. 1804, were £305,149. 17. 11½. in the hands of Collectors; £618,300. 7. 1. in the hands of Receivers General; and £412,282. 11. 7½. in bills not due; the whole of which will be carried into the account of the revenues for the year ending on the 5th of Jan. 1805.

This general abstract is compiled from accounts presented to the Treasury from the Inspector General of Imports and Imports, Accomptant General of the Excise-Office, Excise-Office of Edinburgh, the Comptroller of Stamps, Office for Taxes, Accountant General of the Post Office, Receivers of the duties on pensions for England and Scotland, Receivers General of the land-tax, Receiver General of his Majesty's household, Hackney Coach Office, Office for licensing hawkers and pedlars, Receiver General of the Alienation Office, Green Wax Office, Auditors of the land revenue for England and Wales, Surveyor General of the Land Office, Exchequer, and the Treasury Chambers.

N. B.—The reader will keep in view, that all these Annual Accounts of the Treasury are made up to the 5th of Jan.—For the Account of the Income of last year (that is to say, the year 1802, or the year ended 5th Jan. 1803.) see the POLITICAL REGISTER, Vol. IV. p. 1471 and 1473.

Inspector General's Office, Custom House, London, 23d March 1804.

WILLIAM IRVING, Inspector General of the Imports and Exports of Great Britain.

NOTE.—The real Value of British Produce and Manufactures exported to all Parts of the World, as ascertained under the Acts of the 42d and 43d of his Majesty, Cap. 43 ct 70, and from other correct Sources of Information, amounted in the Year ending the 5th January 1803 to 48,500,683l. and in the Year ending 5th January 1804 to 40,100,870l.

In the Account of foreign Merchandize, the official Estimates are in general under the real Value, but in the Instance of Coffee exported, they greatly exceed; and therefore, in order to shew the true comparative State of this Branch of our Trade, the Price of Coffee is reduced to its real Value, as follows, viz.

1801. 1802. 1803.
Reduced Value of Coffee 3,186,948 3,323,994 1,562,742
Official Value of all other Articles 8,900,099 11,094,843 7,760,515
Total Value of foreign Goods exported £.12,087,047 14,418,837 9,323,257

The Account of the Value of the Imports from India and China, for the Year ending 5th January, 1804, cannot yet be prepared.

The Difference between the Sums stated in the present Account, and those returned in the Account of last Year, arises from sundry over Entries and Allowances, and other Circumstances, which could not at that Time be ascertained.

An Account of the official or rated Value of all IMPORTS into GREAT-BRITIAN (exclusive of Importations from the East-Indies and China) during the last seven Years; distinguishing each Year; and the principle Articles imported.

Papers presented to the House of Commons respecting LORD HOOD'S Claim to PRIZE MONEY at Toulon. Presented to the House of Commons, March 23, 1804.

Abstract of Proceedings respecting Lord Hood's Claim to Prize Money taken at Toulon.

His Majesty was pleased, by his order in council (Nov. 17, 1802) to refer to a committee a memorial of Lord Vis. Hood, Admiral of the White Squadron of his Majesty's fleet, praying a reward to the officers, seamen, and marines of the fleet under his command, for 10 sail of French Sine of battle ships and 3 frigates completely burnt or destroyed; and for 6 other sail of the line materially injured at Toulon in the year 1793; and also for certain other French ships which had been taken possession of and brought away by the memorialist, and had been armed and employed in his Majesty's service immediately or soon after the memorialist got possession of Toulon; and stating, that had these ships been condemned in the High Court of Admiralty, the valuation of their hulls and stores would have been paid by the Commissioners of his Majesty's navy, and the value of the ordnance and ordnance stores by the Board of Ordnance, and the amount distributed to his Majesty's officers, seamen, and marines, serving under the command of the memorialist at the time the said ships were taken possession of; and therefore praying that his Majesty would be graciously pleased to direct the value of the said trench ships to be reported by the commissioners of his Majesty's navy, and the value of the ordnance and ordnance store to be reported by the Board of Ordnance; and that the sum which may be found to be the value of the said ships, with their ordnance and ordnance stores, should be paid to the memorialist in trust, together with the estimated value of such of the French ships as were lost whilst employed in his Majesty's service, and their ordnance and ordnance stores, as well as such remuneration as his Majesty may think the memorialist entitled to for burning or destroying 10 sail of French line of battle ships and 3 frigates, to be distributed to the officers, seamen, and marines, serving under the command of the memorialist at the time the said French ships were taken possession of, in such shares and proportions as directed by his Majesty's proclamation, and in conformity to the usage of the navy.—The Lords of the Committee (Feb. 12, 1803) referred the said memorial to the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, to the end that directions should be given to the Commissioners of his Majesty's Navy, to prepare an estimate of the value of the said French ships at the time they were brought away from Toulon, not including therein the ordnance and ordnance stores.—And similar reference was made at the same time to the Master General of the Ordnance, for causing to be prepared and laid before the Committee, an estimate of the value of the ordnance and ordnance stores on board the said French ships at the time they were brought away from Toulon.—In return to this order the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty transmitted to the Lords of the Committee a letter received from the Commissioners of his Majesty's Navy, dated 1st April, 1803, with an inclosure, entitled, "Valuation of the ships found at Toulon, and armed for his Majesty's service by Lord flood, 291I1 August, 1793," the total amounting to £236,742; copies of which letter and inclosure are hereunto annexed.—And the Secretary, of the Board of Ordinance also by letter dated the 9th April, 1803, transmitted to the Lords of the Committee, by command of the Master General and Board of Ordnance, two accounts, No. 1, entitled, "An Account shewing the value of the ordnance and stores taken on board the undermentioned French ships at Toulon, and delivered into his Majesty's stores at Portsmouth and Priddy's Hard as per returns from the respective officers; made out in pursuance of the honourable Board's order of 29th March, 1803," amounting to 18,173l. 10s. 10½d.; and No.2, entitled, "Estimate of the value of the ordnance and ordnance stores on board the following ships which were armed by Admiral Lord Hood at Toulon, 29th April, 1793; calculated upon the supposition that the same were equal in quantity and condition, according to the rate of the ships, to what was delivered at Portsmouth from the Commerce de Marseilles, Le Pompée, Le Pursuant, Le Arethuse, Le Topaze, La Perle, La Moselle, and La Sincere; prepared pursuant to the Board's order of the 12th April, 1803," amounting to the sum of £.10,421. 4s. making together the sum of £.28,594 14s. 10½d.; copies of which accounts are also hereunto annexed.

Navy Office, 1st April, 1803. SIR,—In obedience to the directions of the Rt. Hon. the Lds. Commissioners of the Admiralty, signified by your letter of the 23d February last, we transmit you, herewith, an estimate of the value of the French ships taken at Toulon, as mentioned in the memorial from Lord Hood which accompanied your letter aforesaid, and of such others as were lost while employed in ins Majesty's service; prepared according to the general value of ships of similar descriptions, from the records in the office of such of them as have been valued upon their arrival in this country, and from the best information which could be obtained of their state and condition; and desire you will please to lay the the same before their lordships—We are, &c.

ORDER of HIS MAJESTY in Council, approving Committee Report submitting to his Majesty's favourable Consideration the Claim of Viscount Hood, in Behalf of himself, and of the Officers, Seamen, and Marines serving under his Command at Toulon, in the Year 1793.—Dated 31st August, 1803.

At the Court at St. James's, the 31st of August, 1803. Present, the King's Most Excellent Majesty in Council.—Whereas there was this day read at the board, a report from the right honourable the lords of the committee of council; dated the 24th of this instant, in the words following; viz.—"Your Majesty having been pleased, by your order in council, bearing date the 17th November last, to refer unto this committee a memorial from the Right Honourable Lord Viscount Hood, admiral of the white squadron of your Majesty's fleet, praying reward to the officers, seamen, and marines of the fleet under his command, for ten sail of French line of battleships, and three frigates, completely burnt or destroyed; and for six other sail of the line materially injured at Toulon in the year 1793; and also for certain other French ships which had been taken possession of and brought away by the memorialist, and had been armed and employed in your Majesty's service immediately or soon after the memorialist got possession of Toulon; and stating, that had these ships been condemned in the High Court of Admiralty, the valuation of their hulls and stores would have been paid by the commissioners of your Majesty's navy, and the value of the ordnance and ordnance stores by the Hoard of Ordnance, and the amount distributed to your Majesty's officers, seamen, and marines, serving under the command of the memorialist at the time the said ships were taken possession of; and presuming to hope that the form of condemnation not having been gone through, will not be considered as an insurmountable objection to the granting to the officers, seamen, and marines, of your Majesty's fleet, that reward for their services, which they would have received, had the said ships been condemned. And that the said ships having so long been considered as British men of war, will the more certainly insure to the memorialist, and to the officers and seamen serving under him, the value of the said French ships, with their ordnance and ordnance stores, according to estimate made of some of them, at the time of their arrival in England; and that such of them as were lost, whilst employed in the service of your Majesty, without being valued, may be estimated according to the general value of ships, ordnance a 2nd ordnance stores of similar force and description. And praying that your Majesty would be graciously pleased to direct the value of the said French ships to be reported by the commissioners of your Majesty's navy, and the value of the ordnance and ordnance stores to be reported by the Board of Ordnance; and that the sum which may be found to be the value of the said ships, with their ordnance and ordnance stores should he paid to the memorialist in trust, together with the estimated value of such of the French ships as were lost whilst employed in your Majesty's service, and their ordnance and ordnance stores, as well as such remuneration as your Majesty may think the memorialist entitled to for burning or destroying ten sail of French line of battleships, and three frigates, to be distributed to the officers, seamen, and marines, serving under the command of the memorialist, at the time the said French ships were taken possession of, in such shares and proportions as directed by your Majesty's proclamation, and in conformity to the usage of the navy:—The lords of the committee, in obedience to your Majesty's said order of reference, proceeded to take the said memorial into consideration, and were clearly of opinion, that the form of condemnation not having been gone through, cannot be considered as an insurmountable objection to the granting to the officers, seamen, and marines; serving under the memorialist, a due reward for their services; and that the memorialist has fully established their claim thereto: but the committee, confident that your Majesty's well known wisdom and equity have long since weighed and appreciated the merit and services of the memorialist, and the officers, seamen, and marines employed in the said expedition, do not deem themselves called upon to offer any opinion to your Majesty upon that point; bur have felt it their duty nevertheless, in compliance with that part of the prayer of the memorial, to cause accounts to be made out of the estimated value of the French ships found at Toulon, and armed for your Majesty's service by the memorialist, and of the ordnance and ordnance stores on board the same at the time they were brought away from Toulon; and also of such of the said ships, with their ordnance and ordnance stores, as were lost whilst employed in your Majesty's service; and having received returns thereof from the lords commissioners of the admiralty, and from your Majesty's Board of Ordnance, the committee take leave to annex to their report copies of the said returns, and do agree humbly to submit the claim of the memorialist, in behalf of himself, and of the officers, seamen, and marines, serving under his command upon the said expedition, to your Majesty's favourable consideration.—His Majesty having taken the same into his royal consideration, is pleased by and with the advice of his privy council to approve thereof.

LORD HOOD'S MEMORIAL, praying his Majesty's Direction to the Advocate General, to prepare a Giant for the Amount of the estimated Value of the Ships, &c taken Possession of at Toulon; dated Royal Hospital, Greenwich, September 6, 1803.

To the Kings Most Excellent Majesty in Council.—The Memorial of Samuel, Lord Viscount Hood, Admiral of the White Squadron of yew Majesty's Fleet—Humbly sheweth, that your Majesty having on the 31st day of Aug. last been graciously pleased to approve of the report of the committee of the lords of your Majesty's most hon. Privy Council, on the former memorial presented by your Majesty's memorialist in behalf of himself, officers, seamen, and marines of your Majesty's fleet under his command, at the time he took possession of Toulon, and of the ships and vessels in the harbour on the 31st day of August, 1793.—Your Majesty's memorialist now humbly prays your Majesty would be graciously pleased to direct the advocate general to prepare a grant for the amount of the estimated value of the ships and vessels taken possession of and armed for your Majesty's service at Toulon, together with the amount of ordnance and ordnance stores according to the three several returns from your Majesty's Navy and Ordnance Boards, annexed to the report of the committee of the lords of your Majesty's most honourable Privy Council, in trust, to the end that the same may be distributed to the officers, seamen, and marines of the fleet, under the command of your Majesty's memorialist which were then present, and aiding and assisting in the capture of the French ships and vessels.—HOOD.

REPORT of the COMMITTEE of the HOUSE of COMMONS, to whom the Petition of the Owners of Lands in the Islands of SHETLAND, for themselves and on Behalf of the other Heritors and Inhabitants of the said Islands, was referred. Dated March, 1604.

Pursuant to the order of the House, your committee have examined the matter of the said petition: to prove, the allegations whereof, Mr. John Scott, being examined, said, that he is a resident in the Island of Valey, about 20 miles from Lerwick—he was there during the last season—that the last harvest was very unfavourable owing to bad weather; that seed was imported from Berwick, and some from the North Country also, but neither answered; that the population of the Shetland Islands is from 20 to 22,000; that the expense of the meal and bear imported last season, amounted to more than £. 30,000; that the harvest of 1802 was a very indifferent one; that the fishery affords a great supply for the island, and the fishery of 1802, as well as that of 1803, was unfavourable; that the inhabitants live on oatmeal, milk, and fish; that great quantities of cattle were sold last year to purchase grain, whereby a great quantity of land was laid waste on account of the cattle being so disposed of; that he only knows of one life being lost on account of scarcity, but as the season advances the scarcity will be more alarming; that seed will be wanted, and if not sent soon will be too late to be sown for the harvest; that the seed is put into the ground in April and May; that they have no barley, and they sow bigg in May; that if no relief is given many lives will be lost; that the relief afforded by government, which arrived in the middle of Jan. last, saved the lives of many persons; that he contributed, last year, 4 years' income to the necessities of the island, and that the contributions of the island in general were not less; that the supply in 1784 was sent in money, and was of great service; that the distresses now are much greater than in 1784; the people were then in a better condition, having had several good years; but by the great exertions made last year, on account of the failure of the crop and fishery, the funds for their relief are exhausted. And the witness added, that the seed potatoes are very scarce, and that if some were sent it would be of great service.

RESOLUTIONS of the COMMITTEE of the HOUSE OF COMMONS appointed to adjust such Differences as may arise between Masters and Workmen engaged in the COTTON MANUFACTURES.—Presented to the House, March 28, 1804.

The committee appointed to consider of the most speedy and effectual mode of adjusting such differences as may arise between masters and workmen engaged in the Cotton Manufacture, and to report the same as it should appear to them to the House; and to whom the minutes of the evidence taken before the Committee, on the petitions presented to the House, in the last Session of Parliament, and also the several proceedings of the House, or of any committee thereof, in the same session, relating to the Cotton Manufacture, were severally referred; and who were instructed to consider of proper measures to be taken for preventing such differences, and to report the several matters referred, to them, together with their observations and opinion thereupon to the House;—Having perused and considered the minutes of the evidence taken before the committee, to whom the several petitions presented to the House in the last session of Parliament, relating to the Act of the 39th and 40th year of his present Majesty, intituled, "An Act for settling Disputes "that may arise between Masters and Workmen "engaged in the Cotton Manufacture, in that "Part of G. Britain called England," were referred; and having taken into their consideration the Bill for amending the said Act, which was presented to the House in the last session of Parliament, for the more effectually settling such disputes;—Have come to the following resolutions:—1. Resolved, that it appears to this committee, that the Act of the 39th and 40th year of his present Majesty, for settling disputes between masters and workmen engaged in the cotton manufacture in England, has not produced the good effects that were expected from it.—2. Resolved, that it appears to this committee, that the principle and object of the said Act was the establishment of a short, summary, impartial, and competent tribunal, for the determination of all disputes arising between masters and workmen engaged in the same manufacture, respecting the same.—3. Resolved, that it is the opinion of this committee, that the power given by the said Act to masters and workmen respectively to nominate persons to bear and determine disputes arising between there respecting the said manufacture, has been productive of great inconveniencies and delay.—4. Resolved, that it is the opinion of this committee, that it is expedient that so much of the said Act of the 39th and 40th year of his present Majesty, as empowers the masters and workmen, in case of such disputes, respectively to nominate persons to hear and determine such disputes, should be repealed; and that, in lieu thereof, it should he provided, that, in cases of disputes between masters and workmen engaged in the said manufacture, respecting such manufacture, any justice of the peace for the county, town, division, or place, wherein such dispute may arise, shall be empowered and required to hear, and finally determine such dispute, if the parties to such dispute shall by writing under their hands so require; and if they shall not so require, then that such justice shall forthwith nominate four impartial persons, residing in or near to the place where such dispute shall have arisen, two of whom shall be masters, or agents or foremen of masters, and the other two workmen, from and out of which persons so nominated the master and workman shall and may severally choose one; which person so chosen shall have power to hear and finally determine such dispute.—5. Resolved, that it is the opinion of this committee (although they are aware of the caution which is requisite in the application of legislative regulations to internal arrangements in the concerns of trade or manufacture) that it is expedient in the present circumstances, with a view to prevent, as far as may be possible, any disputes arising between masters and workmen engaged in the above manufacture, to provide, that with every piece of work hereafter to be delivered out, by or on behalf of any master, to any workman engaged therein, there shall be given, by the person delivering out the same to such workman, if required by such workman, a ticket, signed by the person delivering out the same, stating the quantity of the materials delivered out, the nature of the work to be done, and the price of terms agreed upon for the executing such work in a workmanlike manner.—6. Resolved, that it is the opinion of this committee, that the expenses which may be incurred in the determination of such disputes, should be limited by some specific regulations.

RETURN to an Order, of the House of Commons, dated the 19th March, 1804, for "An Account of the Number of Districts from which Assessments, made by virtue of the Act imposing a DUTY on PROPERTY, have been returned to the Office for Taxes stating the Total Sum assessed:"—Also, for "An Account of the Number of Districts from which no such Assessments have been returned to the said Office."—Dated from the Office for Taxes, March 26, 1804.—Signed, W. Lowndes, B. Barne, H. Hayes, E. Medows, H. Hodgson.

We beg leave to state, that the act, imposing a duty on property, not requiring that assessments, made by virtue thereof, should be returned to this office, we are not enabled to lay before this hon. House, the accounts required, in the form stated in their order.—But, being anxious to give this hon. House all the information of which we are in possession, we beg leave to make the following observations:—It is the usage of this office to require the surveyors, as soon as all appeals are determined, to transmit to this office, a copy of each assessment, with the amount of the sums assessed, distinguishing the particular duty; from which copies, checked by the duplicates transmitted to the receiver general and the King's remembrancer, the accounts of this office are kept.—Under the Assessed Tax Acts, which commence on the 5th of April yearly, the surveyors' accounts of the nett assessments are usually transmitted in or before the month of Oct. next after the end of the year; 18 months being usually necessary, for that purpose For our earlier information of the probable produce of those taxes, we require copies of the gross assessments to be sent up as early in the year of collection as possible; and which are usually transmitted by the 10th of Oct. in that year.—The Act for imposing a Duty on Property, &c. having passed so late as the 11th of Aug. and commissioners being to be specially appointed for that purpose, before the necessary papers could be transmitted to them, that Act was not generally begun to be carried into execution until the beginning of Nov.; so that, pursuing the practice under the Assessed Tax Acts, we could not expect the transmission of the gross assessments until the end of April next.—But, in order to afford us the best evidence that can be obtained, at present, of the probable produce of that tax, as well as to enable us to judge of the progress made from time to time in the execution, we have required the surveyors to transmit the amount of the gross estimates of the profits, as returned by the assessors and the parties, and the deductions then allowed, and the probable period when the collectors of the duty would be appointed. From the returns of 115 surveyors, the probable produce of the duty, in their respective districts (subject to variations from surcharges and claims of exemptions, and abatements, and other causes of appeal) will amount unto £.1,626,000.—The amount of assessments under the Income Act, in the same districts, in the year 1801 (exclusive of assessments under commercial commissioners) was £.1,597,300.—The sums accounted for by Bank Certificates delivered at the commissioners office, on the duty on dividends without assessment, for one half year, amounted, on the 21st instant, to £.93,200.—And the amount assessed in 35 departments of office, as returned to us, amounts unto £.146,900.—The number of surveyors who have not returned accounts of the probable produce of gross assessments, is 169.—The number of departments of office, which have not returned the amount of assessments under their respective commissioners, is about 30.—We have received, from 23 surveyors, accounts of the commencement of the collection of the duty in their respective districts; and from 92 other surveyors, assurances that the duties will be ready for collection before the end of April next.—From 169 surveyors, we have received no positive information as to the period of the commencement of the collection; but we have reason to believe, that the assessments are in a progressive state, and that the commissioners are sedulously proceeding to complete the assessments in every district except one, wherein commissioners have not yet been found to accept the office.
