IV. c. 112.) and it is expedient to amend the said act; be it therefore enacted, that within one month after any Cocoa shall have been warehoused it shall be lawful for the importer or proprietor to abandon any part thereof for the duty, and the quantity of such Cocoa not so abandoned, being thereupon ascertained, shall be deemed to be the quantity imported :Provided always, that no abatement of duty shall be made on account of any damage received by any Cocoa during the voyage. § 41.

Restriction as to package of wine bottled in warehouse repealed.— Whereas by the said act, § 30. (see page 607.) Wine is permitted to be drawn off in the warehouse into reputed quart bottles or reputed pint bottles, and it is expedient to repeal the restriction as to the package thereof; be it therefore enacted, that so much of the said recited act as so restricts the exportation of wine from the warehouse in cases containing three dozen reputed quart bottles or six dozen reputed pint bottles is hereby repealed. § 42.

Foreign spirits in the warehouse may be bottled.-It shall be lawful, in the warehouse, to draw off any Foreign Spirits into reputed quart bottles, for the purpose of removing the same from such warehouse for exportation, under such regulations and restrictions as the commissioners of customs shall from time to time require and direct. § 43.

Allowance for natural waste of Spirits.*-Whereas Spirits are subject to a diminution, both as to their strength and their quantity, from natural causes, during their continuance in the warehouse, and it is expedient that some allowance of duty should be made in respect of such diminution; be it therefore enacted, that-an allowance of duty in respect of such diminution shall be made for Spirits that have been warehoused under the provisions of the said last-mentioned act in warehouses of special security, upon such spirits being taken out for home consumption, and that such allowance shall be the actual diminution in strength and also in quantity that may have taken place during the time that such spirits have continued in the warehouse; but that no allowance of duty by virtue of this act shall be made in respect of any diminution which shall exceed ten per cent. under proof. § 44.For all Spirits that have been warehoused in warehouses, not being of special security, that have been approved for the deposit of Spirits, (and declared in the order of approval to be fit, secure, and substantially built, near to the usual places of landing and shipping, and approved for and capable of affording general accommodation,) the following allowances shall be made upon their being entered for home consumption; namely,-(The quantities allowed are the same as those at page 608.)-Provided that no allowance shall be made by virtue of this act in respect of any deficiency in quantity in any such warehoused

Doubts having arisen whether these clauses do not supersede the indulgence in regard to the duties on deficiencies of Rum, granted by Treasury Order, dated 3 April, 1824, and continued by Order of 26 April last, viz. "Rums to be charged with duty according to the strength and measure at the time of delivery, provided the same had been warehoused more than two years," the same is directed to be considered in force till further orders. Cus. Letter, 21 Aug. 1832.

Allowance for waste.-Upon the entry of any Sugar to be cleared from the warehouse for home use the duty payable shall, (except as hereinafter provided,) be charged upon the weight of the Sugar actually delivered, and not according to the account of the quantity taken at the time of the landing of the same: -Provided always, that if such Sugar be lodged in warehouses not of special security, no greater allowance for waste or decrement of the quantity ascertained at the time of landing shall be made than shall be after the rate of five per cent. of such quantity for the first three months,-and-two per cent. more for every subsequent month during which such Sugar shall have remained in such warehouse. § 47.

Goods permitted to be shipped Free as Ship's Stores.*—Whereas it is expedient to permit warehoused goods to be delivered into the charge of the searchers, to be shipped as stores for certain ships upon certain voyages; be it enacted, that such goods shall and may be delivered into the charge of the searchers to be shipped as stores, without entry or payment of any duty for any ship of the burthen of seventy tons at least, bound upon a voyage to foreign parts, the probable duration of which out and home will not be less than forty days:-Provided always, that such goods shall be shipped in such quantities and subject to such directions and regulations as the commissioners of customs shall direct and appoint. § 48.
