is that no person do set up any Shop-keeping Trade unless they be made Free of the same And if any should plead that it might be lawful for one man to use anothers Land as his own for a Livelihood he would presently be accounted a Leveller and a ridiculous Fellow And certainly no less can he be accounted that should argue it might be lawful for one man to use anothers Trade For this Trade is bought with the Parents Money and the Sons Servitude and intended for a future livelihood for the Son in the same manner as Land is bought by the Father and setled upon the Child for his future Livelihood and comfortable subsistence CHAP. XV. Of petty Shop-keepers living in Countrey Villages THis is another thing that as well as Pedlars doth greatly increase and add to to the number of Shop-keepers and doth likewise contribute towards the ruining of the Cities and Market-Towns in England and which was never wont to be formerly for now in every Countrey-Village where is it may be not above ten Houses there is a Shop-keeper and one that never served any Apprentiship to any Shop-keeping Trade whatsoever and many of those are not such that do deal only in Pins or such small Wares but such that deal in as many substantial Commodities as any do that live in Cities and Market-Towns who have no less than 1000 l. worth of Goods in their Shops for which they pay not one farthing of any Tax at all either Parochial or National Certainly all men must needs apprehend that if this and Pedlars be suffered that Cities and Market-Towns must needs be impoverished because then there will be little occasion I say to bring the Countrey people to them the which hath happened in a very great measure already for in some places there is not a fifth part of the money taken by the Shop-keepers as was formerly and in many places not half and in some particular Trades there is as may be made appear 25000 l. stock made use of less than there was heretofore And there are these several reasons following why it is necessary that Market-Towns and Cities should be encouraged and upheld in their Trades 1. Because the People that do live in Cities and Markets-Towns do depend wholly upon a Trade for the maintenance both of themselves and their Families and if their Trade be taken from them by such ways as these are they will be at a very great loss to know what to do because they were never bred to any thing else yet so it is not with those that deal in Villages who have been bred in some other way and they have or may have some other way of living besides the Shop-keeping-Trade 2. Because if Cities and Market-Towns be impoverished then the general part of the People of this Kingdom will lose that necessary conveniency before-mentioned for the preferment of their Children And this one reason that when many Parents have been at great charge in placing forth their Children to Trades in Cities and Market-Towns and the Children have faithfully served out their full time that after all they are but little the better for it because Pedlars and Shop-keepers in Villages such that never served any Apprenticeship to any Shop-keeping-Trade do intercept a very great part of the Trade from coming to them 3. This will be a great means to depopulate not only the Cities and Market-Towns but also the whole Kingdom for when men can find little or no incouragement in their Trades then they will endeavour to transplant themselves into other Countries where they may have better encouragement by which means we shall lose our People whereas in the Opinion of many wise Men we do already want more People in England than now we have there being very great numbers that have gone not only into our own Plantations but into Holland and setled there 4. If Cities and Market-Towns be impoverished and depopulated then there will not be raised out of them that proportion of all manner of Taxes as now there is so that the burthen hereof will be the heavier upon Lands and Revenues in the Countrey And it will be a very great diminution of all those standing Taxes that the Cities and Market-Towns do bear the only or at least the greatest proportion as they do in the Excise of Beer and Ale for little is gathered any where else and the Farmers of the Excise are always sensible of the ebbing and flowing of Trade whose Excise doth ebb and flow accordingly And then if Cities and Market-Towns grow poor the Chimney-money will never increase thereby The gatherers of this Tax are able to give an account what multitudes of Paupers are exempted by Certificates in Cities and Market-Towns in England and yet notwithstanding there be many do pay who had need also to be exempted 5. If Cities and Market-Towns be impoverished and depopulated of their wealth and rich Inhabitants for want of Trade the great and numerous poor that are in most of them will want to be relieved which is a burthen that doth lie very heavy upon them already for in some Market-Towns there are many that are not worth much above a hundred pound stock which do not pay less than ten shillings a year towards the relief of the poor which is such a burthen that if it lay upon the Countrey Farmer it would much weaken him in the paying of his Rent Now if the poor should not be relieved what can be expected but that swarms of them would go into the Countrey for relief as already they do in many places and when the ruder sort cannot get enough by begging they will be pilfering and stealing So that the consideration of these poor and the many younger Brothers that will be out of any way of living with the like contingencies will administer just occasion to any wise and intelligent Person easily to presage the misfortunes and miseries that will hereupon necessarily ensue throughout this Kingdom 6. If Cities and Market-Towns be impoverished and depopulated for want of a Trade then what will the Countrey-man do to have money for all his Commodities as his Butter his Cheese his Cattel his Wool his Corn and his Fruit the Shop-keepers in the Country-Villages will yield but little help in this case and the Pedlers much less It is manifest that the People living in Cities and Market-Towns consume all these Commodities of the Farmers and do help them to ready money for the same by which means they have wherewith to pay their Rent and serve their other occasions and it is impossible for them to subsist but by this way So that in all reason this kindness ought to be reciprocal and when it is so it is the better for both for it cannot be supposed that Tradesmen in Cities and Market-Towns should ever hold out to buy the Farmers Commodities and help them constantly to money for them if they should always go home and lay out little or no

only forfeit the Goods concealed and be permitted to compound for them as you can agree wherein the Circumstances in some places will be considered and the manner how the error grew or whether it were done with a set purpose There are also in divers places allowances made as in England upon Wines in regard of Leakage of ten or fifteen upon the hundred or else all the Butts and Pipes are to be filled up and so to pay accordingly wherein the time of the Voyage foul weather and other accidents are to be considered to make your composition thereafter Upon Clothes to be Shipped out there is allowance made of the tenth Cloth for a Wrapper which payeth no Custom and so of all other Woollen Commodities which payeth after the rate as three Northern Kersies for a Cloth four Devonshire Kersies two single Dozens one double Dozen six Cardinals Pin-whites Statutes Stockbridges Straits and Tavistocks four Cornish Dozens Pennystones unfriezed Island Dozens and Northern Plains for one Cloth two Bridgwaters Cornish and Devonshire double Dozens Florentines Northern Dozens single and Pennystones for a Cloth to be understood for a short Cloth coloured or white of twenty and four yards long weighing 60 l. unto 64 l. whereof English Custom was a Noble and the Merchant-strangenr thirteen shillings and four pence whereunto is added the ancient Custom heretofore paid by the Merchants of the Steel-yard o● Haunce-Towns being 14 pence so together 14 s. 6 d. a Cloth besides the over length of 3 d. ¼ the yard which is of late comprised in the new Imposition of the pretermitted Custom for weighing of Cloths at two pence the pound so that a short Cloth paid in times past a Noble and now ten shillings besides the overlength according to the weight after the said rate at two pence for the pound All which the Merchant-stranger payeth double Also whereas of late years since the Customs were letten to farm all Commodities as Sugars Spices Raisins of the Sun and others are weighed and thereupon the Tare for the Cask or Chest is to be allowed and so the Custom is paid There ought good allowance to be made for the said Tare because many Commodities being unladed and having taken the moisture of the Seas increaseth the weight of their Cask so that Merchants pay many times Custom for that which they have not by the strict dealing of Officers contrary to Equity and Justice if they do not warily look to their affairs wherein the Officers may also be excused Now to conclude touching Customs we must consider what they may amount unto upon the Hundred according to which Merchants are to cast up their Accounts for benefit and loss as aforesaid The Custom in England called Parva Custuma was three pence upon every pound that the Commodities are rated in the Custom Book which is paid by Merchants Strangers now altered paying six pence The Subsidy or Poundage is paid by all Merchants of what Nation soever which is 12 d. upon all Commodities brought in And for Cloth exported 6 s. 8 d. for English Merchants and Merchants Strangers double The new Imposition established in the year 1608 is also 12 d. upon all Commodities imported and upon some Commodities exported is limited so that Custom and Subsidy in England is 12 ½ upon the 100 for Merchants Strangers Besides Butleridg or Scavage almost one per Cent. more for Goods inward and for English Merchants is ten upon the hundred The Impost upon Wines is limited upon the Butt Pipe Hogshead as by the Book of Rates with the Composition-money and other Duties In Spain and Portugal they take after divers rates for Commodities some 1 10 or 1 15 and twenty five upon the hundred esteemed to be one with another unquinto or ⅕ part or 20 per Cent. with the Alcavalla taken from Brokeridge to sell them In Barbary seven per Cent. aboard The Turk taketh ⅕ part as the Aegyptians The Venetians take 3 5 7 and 10 upon the hundred with great advisement and upon the Manufactures of other Nations 14 15 and more And the like is is done in France to advance the Handy-craftsman The great Imposts demanded in the year 1604 by Philip the Third King of Spain of 30 upon the 100 of French English and Flanders Commodities was soon abolished when the French King Henry the Fourth did the like for one extream enforcing another is of small continuance CHAP.
