ships, will in future (if required) be shipped through the Export Warehouse ; 

 and such persons are accordingly required to send their baggage, or any part of 

 the same, to the Export Warehouse, at least 14 days previous to the time appoint- 

 ed for the dispatch of the ship on which they may proceed ; as after the dispatch 

 of the last sloop with Company's cargo, no baggage will be received for transmis- 

 sion to that ship through the Export Warehouse. 



The baggage of persons above mentioned shall be accompanied by a letter, 

 addressed to the Sub-Export Warehouse Keeper, specifying the number and na- 

 ture of the packages ; the dimensions thereof, and the rank of the owner, and a 

 list, to be accompanied by a certificate from the Custom Master, that the du- 

 ties thereon have been settled, shall be furnished. 



It shall be the duty of the Sub-Export Warehouse Keeper, or other Officer 

 of the Export Warehouse, upon the receipt of the baggage into the Export 

 Warehouse, to cause the square contents of each package to be ascertained, 

 and to register the same, and also to grant a receipt of their number to the 

 proprietors of them. 



The Sub-Export Warehouse Keeper will also adopt immediate measures 

 for forwarding them to the ships, on which they are to be laden, at the risk 

 however of the proprietor. 



In the event of persons desiring to ship their own baggage, they will, on 

 application to the Sub-Export Warehouse Keeper, or the Commander of the 

 ship they may be about to proceed on, be furnished with printed forma of 

 application, which they are required to fill up as directed therein, and for- 

 ward to the Sub- Export Warehouse Keeper, who will cause the solid contents 

 of the baggage therein described to be ascertained, and grant an order to the 

 Commander of the ship on which they may have engaged their passage, for the 

 reception of the same on board. 



The Public are hereby informed, that the Commanders of the Honourable 

 Company's ships are not only positively prohibited from receiving on board of 

 their ships any baggage except under an order from the Sub- Export Warehouse 

 Keeper, or any Officer of the Warehouse, but held also responsible for the conse- 

 quence of taking any baggage in excess of the authorized quantity, and made to 

 pay freight for excess so taken, at such rate as the Honourable Court of Directors 

 may deem proper. 



No baggage in excess of the allowance above stated, can be permitted to be 

 shipped, without previous reference to the Board of Trade, who will transmit 

 such applications for the consideration of the Governor General in Council. 



Each person, whose baggage may be shipped through the Export Warehouse, 

 will be permitted, on his final departure, to take with him a small trunk and an 

 escrutoir under his own custody. 



To meet the contingent expences of the Baggage Department of the Export 

 Warehouse, the following fee shall be levied from the parties, on obtaining from 

 the proper Officer a receipt for their baggage.
