THK DECLINE IN AMERICAN OOEAN TONNAGE. The report says:—The increase of our tonnage in the foreign carrying trade from 1830 to 1840 wae about sixty per cent; from 1840 t 1850, weventy-five per cent; Irom 1860. to 1860, sixty per cent, ‘This jatter is the first decade in which we find any retia- bie statistics of the registered tonnage of Great Britain, to enavie us to institute ® comparison be- tween it and ourown. In this decade the tonnage of Great Britain employed exclusively in the foreign trade of that country increased about forty per cent. Our own tonnage engaged in the foreign carrying trade reached ite highest pomt in 1861, being that year 2,042,628 tons, while that of Great Britain was at the same time 3,179,683 tons, giving us the second place in rank among nations in the extent of our ocean tonnage, walle we were the acknowledged superior of all in the proficiency which we bad attained iu the science of naval archi- tecture and ip the efficiency of our mercantic marine. From 1861 to 1866 our tonnage engaged in the foreign trade decreased from 2,642,025 tone to 1,972,926 tons—a joss of 1,149,902 tons, or more than forty-three per cent, while Great Britain in the same Notwithstanding the check caused by the war time gain 986,715 tous, or more than thirty per cent. upon the production of the crops of the South, which furnished wo large & percentuge of our exports, the ayprewate, vonni of the United States and Great Britain e1 i the foreign carrying trade nas sncreased, sate fourteen per cent, ier from the position of nearly an equal in tonuage wi at nation our own wnuage had Qwindied to jess thdn one-third of that of Great Britain. ‘The change of the bisinoss furnished by our own country in exports and imports from Auienican to foreign vessels is still more strining. In 1860, seventy-tive per cent of our total exports and unports were shipped in American vessels. Ia 1566, seventy-five per cent in American, and tweoty- five per cent in Joreign vessels.

At present the whole tendency of the freighting business of the worid ls to seek direct routes, and, by steam communication, to combine mail and pas senger with merchandise transportation. Great Britain, availing herself of the use of steam, has ob- tained control of the chief of these direct lines of ocean communication, and in doing so has occupied the shortegt routes and those Which, without loss of time or distance, affords we most points to touch and tap the trade beiouging to them, Between America, Nurth and South, ste has nine direct lines. Three Ines sail direct irom Souchamp- von to the Gulf of Mexico—one to Tampico, Mexico; anutuer to Aspinwail; vbe third rung to Puerto Ca- vello, Venezuela. There are also three lines that sali direct for the Atianuic coast of South America. Panama is the starting point tor four lines of Briush steamers. There are two lines along the west coast of Airica, botn starting from Southampton. Besides @ number of short routes counecting aif- ferent points, the greatest line of all 1s that of the Peninaular jand Oriental Mail Steamship Company. Its point of departure is Southampton, From that port their vessels go to Gibraltar, through the Meal- lerranean, touching at different points, as Malta, &c., W Port Said, througa the canal, the Red bea, across the Arabian Sea, to Bombay and Ceylon. At the latter place a line runs W Australia, there cou- necting with 8 line already mentioned, running from. Panama, and thus making the circle cowpiete. This extension of lines of ers has been pro- cured mainly by means of jiveral subsidies paid by the Bnweh and French governments ior carrying HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. WASHINGTON, Feb. 1%, 1870.

The decline hus been wholly in the shipping of the United States. We that ot otner navions has been depressed from the causes alluded to, there bas not only been no absolute decline, but, as has been’ shown, ® constant increase in tongage and in we eMiciency of their vessels. 1t 18 obvious from the foregoing that the Causes operating to produce tne present condition of the pavigation inverest are epeciai—such as affect American tonnage only— and, as your committee beleve, may ve readily ascertained. ‘The steady increase of our shipping engaged in the foreign waae up to the commencement of the revel- lion apd the saddeu wud rapid decline from that dents of the war. data 919,466 tons of At from our lists during the rebellion, 110,163 tons were destroyed by Angio-Coniederave piraves, while 803,303 tons were either sold ‘to foreigners or passed nominally into thelr hands and obtsined ne protection of their flage.

The loss of this amount of tonnage would not of itself have produced such disastrous results as we have seen had not the vaiue of Wout remained been virtually destroyed by the peril in which it was placed from English piraucat vesseig Sailing under the Confederate flag. ‘The risk of sailing under the American flag was so great as to divert @ large anare of the carrying trade into foreign bottoms, principally those of Great Britain. That changes which have occurred in naval architecture and 1m the materials of which ebips are now bemg constructed operated anterior 0 the re- vellien, and tended to produce a revolution in the shipping of the worid ts undoubtedly true. Iron as a buiding material for ships was fast ed wood, aud screw steamers were, as we have said, crowding Out gail vessels on all Ocean routes where the carrying of passengers and malls could be com- bined with the general freighting businesa, But it by no mewas 1oliows that this revaluiton in the character of the mercantule marine of the worid would, if peace had continued, have prevented us i main- taining with Joreign nations our relative position ag &@ great maritime Power.
