unspeakable_a advantage_n the_o west-india_n plantation_n be_v to_o england_n be_v so_o well_o know_v that_o it_o need_v no_o demonstration_n to_o prove_v it_o the_o only_a thing_n necessary_a be_v to_o endeavour_v to_o improve_v and_o increase_v this_o mighty_a advantageous_a trade_n by_o secure_v they_o from_o the_o insult_v of_o their_o enemy_n and_o enable_v they_o to_o make_v large_a quantity_n of_o the_o commodity_n of_o those_o colony_n now_o the_o mean_n most_o conducive_a thereunto_o will_v be_v to_o make_v the_o trade_n to_o africa_n open_a and_o free_a for_o all_o the_o native_a subject_n of_o england_n which_o trade_n for_o slave_n be_v chief_o from_o acra_n to_o angola_n and_o contain_v about_o 1200_o mile_n sea-cost_n in_o which_o extent_n the_o present_a

those_o part_n it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o the_o riches_n of_o the_o plantation_n consist_v in_o slave_n chief_o by_o who_o strength_n and_o labour_n all_o their_o commodity_n as_o tobacco_n sugar_n cotton_n indigo_n ginger_n etc._n etc._n be_v produce_v and_o the_o more_o slave_n those_o plantation_n be_v supply_v with_o the_o more_o commodity_n be_v make_v and_o the_o strong_a they_o be_v to_o defend_v themselves_o against_o any_o insult_v neither_o can_v there_o be_v any_o more_o danger_n of_o be_v overstockt_a with_o negro_n than_o there_o be_v that_o too_o much_o tobacco_n sugar_n etc._n etc._n shall_v be_v send_v to_o england_n for_o it_o be_v a_o plain_a consequence_n the_o more_o negro_n the_o more_o good_n will_v be_v produce_v the_o more_o good_n the_o more_o custom_n pay_v and_o all_o those_o commodity_n render_v here_o at_o home_o so_o cheap_a as_o will_v enable_v this_o nation_n to_o send_v they_o abroad_o cheap_a also_o to_o the_o great_a discourage_v of_o the_o plantation-trade_n of_o all_o other_o nation_n wherefore_o it_o be_v very_o plain_a that_o a_o large_a supply_n of_o negro_n will_v not_o only_o bring_v great_a riches_n to_o this_o kingdom_n but_o will_v also_o great_o increase_v our_o navigation_n whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a shall_v the_o african_a trade_n be_v enclose_v and_o confine_v to_o the_o will_n and_o power_n of_o a_o company_n the_o consequence_n will_v prove_v as_o fatal_a to_o the_o plantation_n as_o a_o power_n give_v to_o one_o person_n in_o england_n to_o supply_v the_o gardener_n with_o servant_n and_o the_o farmer_n and_o carrier_n with_o horse_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v that_o the_o one_o will_v be_v constrain_v to_o pay_v yearly_a for_o his_o servant_n as_o much_o as_o his_o year_n product_v will_v amount_v to_o and_o the_o other_o for_o his_o team_n as_o much_o as_o the_o rent_n of_o his_o farm_n which_o will_v prove_v great_a discouragement_n to_o their_o labour_n and_o industry_n this_o may_v we_o reasonable_o suppose_v will_v be_v the_o case_n of_o the_o planter_n in_o the_o west-indies_n be_v there_o but_o one_o person_n that_o must_v supply_v they_o with_o slave_n they_o be_v so_o extreme_o necessary_a that_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o live_v without_o they_o every_o man_n be_v rich_a or_o poor_a according_a to_o his_o stock_n in_o slave_n a_o man_n that_o may_v be_v proprietor_n of_o 10000_o acre_n of_o land_n will_v still_o be_v poor_a have_v he_o no_o stock_n of_o negro_n to_o employ_v upon_o it_o it_o may_v be_v fair_o object_v that_o the_o present_a african_a company_n have_v carry_v on_o their_o trade_n but_o very_o imperfect_o as_o to_o their_o own_o advantage_n notwithstanding_o that_o be_v all_o the_o design_n they_o aim_v at_o
