another_o man_n expression_n in_o any_o reign_n wherein_o they_o be_v not_o in_o the_o ministry_n will_v have_v think_v sufficient_a to_o have_v enslave_v the_o nation_n now_o i_o think_v it_o lie_v upon_o they_o to_o show_v what_o great_a advantage_n the_o mariner_n will_v bring_v to_o the_o kingdom_n more_o than_o a_o equal_a number_n of_o seaman_n which_o may_v balance_v these_o

be_v to_o employ_v a_o equal_a number_n of_o sailor_n which_o i_o have_v show_v will_v be_v less_o chargeable_a to_o the_o kingdom_n by_o above_o a_o three_o than_o i_o presume_v it_o will_v be_v grant_v that_o seaman_n actual_o on_o board_n will_v be_v as_o ready_a as_o mariner_n whereof_o a_o great_a part_n will_v be_v always_o on_o shore_n reason_n ii_o that_o these_o mariner_n do_v not_o

be_v excuse_v from_o make_v any_o answer_n to_o this_o argument_n till_o the_o gentleman_n of_o this_o new_a way_n of_o reason_v be_v please_v to_o show_v that_o their_o mariner_n do_v not_o receive_v

seaman_n i_o must_v own_o it_o be_v my_o opinion_n they_o will_v not_o be_v content_v with_o the_o accommodation_n seaman_n be_v accustom_v to_o especial_o their_o beau-officer_n who_o will_v think_v themselves_o but_o ill_o use_v unless_o they_o have_v cabin_n make_v on_o purpose_n for_o they_o reason_n iii_o mariner_n be_v more_o proper_a to_o make_v insult_v upon_o the_o enemy_n coast_n than_o seaman_n who_o be_v not_o under_o so_o good_a a_o discipline_n for_o land-service_n answer_n our_o own_o experience_n be_v contrary_a to_o this_o for_o they_o have_v be_v employ_v together_o but_o once_o upon_o land-service_n during_o the_o late_a war_n which_o be_v at_o the_o siege_n of_o cork_n where_o a_o few_o seaman_n under_o the_o conduct_n of_o the_o duke_n of_o grafton_n do_v gallant_a

no_o war_n nor_o any_o occasino_n to_o make_v insult_v upon_o our_o enemy_n coast_n and_o must_v we_o be_v at_o a_o great_a charge_n and_o hazard_v to_o keep_v they_o up_o till_o the_o lord_n know_v

to_o believe_v that_o shall_v be_v do_v hereafter_o which_o be_v never_o attempt_v in_o eight_o year_n war_n but_o if_o this_o be_v practicable_a we_o may_v at_o any_o time_n qualify_v land-soldier_n for_o such_o service_n by_o keep_v they_o only_o on_o board_n till_o their_o sea-sickness_n be_v over_o reason_n iu._n marine_a regiment_n be_v proper_a than_o seaman_n to_o defend_v the_o deck_n of_o

shall_v be_v always_o at_o sea_n and_o one_o three_o work_v in_o the_o yard_n by_o turn_n now_o i_o have_v already_o show_v that_o the_o two_o three_o at_o sea_n be_v more_o chargeable_a and_o less_o

their_o establishment_n their_o pay_n at_o land_n be_v but_o eight_o penny_n a_o day_n but_o i_o presume_v if_o they_o hinder_v they_o from_o work_v any_o other_o way_n by_o employ_v their_o whole_a time_n in_o hard_a labour_n they_o will_v increase_v their_o allowance_n as_o they_o do_v when_o they_o send_v they_o to_o sea_n which_o by_o the_o way_n be_v always_o do_v when_o soldier_n be_v set_v at_o work_n in_o the_o garrison_n or_o elsewhere_o if_o they_o do_v this_o their_o own_o pay_n will_v be_v equivalent_a to_o the_o hire_n of_o common_a labourer_n or_o very_o near_o it_o but_o suppose_v they_o do_v not_o increase_v it_o i_o have_v show_v before_o that_o the_o pay_v of_o the_o officer_n be_v above_o a_o three_o of_o the_o whole_a pay_n of_o the_o regiment_n suppose_v every_o

false_a muster_n than_o the_o officer_n pay_v in_o probability_n will_v amount_v to_o half_a which_o be_v throw_v in_o will_v make_v their_o wage_n much_o above_o the_o rate_n of_o common_a

four_o thing_n the_o first_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v that_o seven_o thousand_o man_n be_v more_o than_o sufficient_a for_o guard_n and_o garrison_n and_o consequent_o these_o mariner_n be_v not_o

navigation_n be_v due_o observe_v man_n will_v natural_o fall_v into_o the_o most_o beneficial_a employment_n till_o it_o become_v overstockt_v and_o some_o of_o they_o for_o want_n of_o subsistence_n be_v force_v to_o seek_v out_o other_o livelihood_n which_o be_v true_a not_o only_o in_o this_o but_o all_o other_o trade_n the_o three_o be_v that_o if_o by_o a_o war_n or_o any_o other_o accident_n more_o seaman_n be_v breed_v in_o a_o country_n than_o their_o ship_n of_o war_n and_o the_o bulk_n of_o their_o trade_n will_v constant_o employ_v the_o supernumerary_n must_v go_v to_o other_o trade_n find_v out_o new_a country_n beg_v steal_v or_o starve_v which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o case_n at_o present_a of_o england_n for_o during_o the_o war_n we_o maintain_v between_o forty_o and_o fifty_o thousand_o man_n in_o the_o royal_a navy_n and_o now_o we_o do_v not_o employ_v above_o ten_o thousand_o so_o that_o near_o forty_o thousand_o man_n breed_v in_o the_o fleet_n be_v to_o

be_v a_o consequent_a from_o the_o two_o last_o that_o this_o marine_a establishment_n be_v no_o nursery_n for_o seaman_n but_o rather_o the_o contrary_n i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o in_o no_o

such_o regiment_n may_v be_v of_o use_n to_o bring_v land-man_n to_o sea_n for_o bad_a seaman_n be_v better_a than_o none_o at_o all_o but_o in_o a_o country_n thorough_o verse_v in_o sea_n affair_n

thirteen_o thousand_o seaman_n now_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o show_v the_o contrary_n first_o there_o be_v a_o natural_a antipathy_n between_o seaman_n and_o land_n soldier_n as_o have_v different_a custom_n manner_n oeconomy_n and_o officer_n nor_o as_o sir_n william_n petty_n observe_v 57_o political_a arithmetic_n fol._n 57_o do_v the_o seaman_n hearty_o rejoice_v at_o those_o success_n of_o which_o land-man_n have_v any_o share_n think_v it_o hard_a that_o they_o who_o be_v breed_v to_o miserable_a painful_a and_o laborious_a employment_n and_o yet_o profitable_a to_o
