CONVENTION OF COMMERCE, BETWEEN HIS BRITANNIC MAJESTY AND THE KING OF DENMARK. [Presented to both Houses of Parliament, on February 7th, by the Earl of Liverpool and Mr Canning.] His Majesty the King of the united kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and his Majesty of Denmark, being equally desirous of extending and increasing the commercial intercourse between their respective states, and of affording every facility and encouragement to their subjects engaged in such intercourse; and being of opinion, that nothing will more contribute to the attainment of their mutual wishes in this respect than a reciprocal abrogation of all discriminating and countervailing duties which are now demanded and levied upon the ships or productions of either nation in the ports of the other, have appointed their plenipotentiaries to conclude a convention for that purpose; that is to say, His Majesty the King of the united kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, the Right Hon. George Canning, a member of his said Majesty's most honourable Privy Council, a member of Parliament, and his said Majesty's principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs; and the Right Hon. William Huskisson, a member of his said Majesty's most honourable Privy Council, a member of Parliament, president of the Committee of Privy Council for Affairs of Trade and Foreign Plantations, and Treasurer of his said Majesty's Navy; And his Majesty the King of Denmark, Charles Emilius, Count de Moltke, Grand Cross of the Order of Daborg, his said Majesty's Privy Councillor of Conferences, and his Envoy Extraordinary at the Court of his Britannic Majesty; who, after having communicated to each other their respective full powers, found to be in due and proper form, have agreed upon and concluded the following articles : Art. 1. From and after the 1st day of July next, Danish vessels entering or departing from the ports of the united kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and British vessels entering or departing from the ports of his Danish Majesty's dominions, shall not be subject to any other higher duties or charges whatever, than are or shall be levied on national vessels entering or departing from such ports respectively. Art. 2. All articles of the growth, produce, or manufacture of any of the dominions of either of the high contracting parties, which are or shall be permitted to be imported into, or exported from the ports of the united kingdom and of Denmark respectively, in vessels of the one country, shall in like manner be permitted to be imported into and exported from those ports in vessels of the other. Art. 3. All articles not of the growth, produce, or manufacture of the dominions of his Britannic Majesty, which can legally be imported, from the united kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, into the ports and dominions of the King of Denmark, in British ships, shall be subject only to the same duties as are payable upon the like articles if imported in Danish ships; and the same reciprocity shall be observed with regard to Danish vessels in the ports of the said united kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, in respect to all articles not the growth, produce, or manufacture of the dominions of his Danish Majesty, which can legally be imported into the ports of the united kingdom in Danish ships. Art. 4.-All goods, wares, and mer chandise, which can legally be imported into the ports of either country, shall be admitted at the same rate or duty, whether imported in vessels of the other country, or in national vessels; and all goods, wares, or merchandize, which can be legally exported from the ports of either country, shall be entitled to the same bounties, drawbacks, and allowances, whether exported in vessels of the other country, or in national vessels. Art. 5.-No priority or preference shall be given, directly or indirectly, by the government of either country, or by any company, corporation, or agent, acting on its behalf or under its authority, in the purchase of any article the growth, the produce, or manufacture of either country, imported into the other, on account of, or in reference to the character of the vessel in which such article was imported; it being the true intent and meaning of the high contracting parties, that no distinction or difference whatever shall be made in this respect. Art. 6.-The high contracting parties have mutually determined not to include, in the present convention, their respective colonies, in which are comprehended, on the part of Denmark, Greenland, Iceland, and the islands of Ferroe; it is expressly agreed that the intercourse which may at present legally be carried on by the subjects or ships of either of the said high contracting parties with the colonies of the other, shall remain upon the same footing as if this convention had never been concluded. Art. 7.-The present convention shall be in force for the term of ten years from the date hereof; and further, until the end of twelve months after either of the high contracting parties shall have given notice to the other of its intention to terminate the same; each of the high contracting parties reserving to itself the right of giving such notice to the other, at the end of the said term of ten years; and it is hereby agreed between them, that, at the expiration of twelve months after such notice shall have been received by either party from the other, this convention, and all the provisions thereof, shall altogether cease and determine. Art. 8. The present convention shall be ratified, and the ratifications shall be exchanged at London, within one month from the date hereof, or sooner if possible. In witness whereof, the respective plenipotentiaries have signed the same, and have affixed thereto the seals of their arms. Done at London, the sixteenth day (Signed) GEORGE Canning.
