A59253	A serious advice to the African and Indian Company		1700 (1700)	Wing S2603; ESTC R219996	6,220	12

a_o serious_a advice_n to_o the_o african_a and_o indian_a company_n it_o be_v propose_v that_o the_o director_n may_v be_v please_v to_o call_v not_o only_o the_o general_n council_n but_o as_o many_o of_o the_o partner_n of_o the_o company_n as_o can_v be_v have_v now_o in_o time_n of_o parliament_n in_o order_n to_o consult_v the_o common_a concern_v of_o the_o company_n where_o the_o true_a interest_n of_o the_o company_n may_v be_v calm_o and_o serious_o consider_v without_o passion_n or_o by-end_n and_o if_o by_o they_o it_o be_v find_v expedient_a the_o follow_a proposal_n may_v be_v debate_v agree_v unto_o or_o reject_v and_o that_o other_o may_v be_v add_v or_o put_v in_o their_o place_n 1_o mo_z that_o a_o dutiful_a and_o earnest_a address_n may_v be_v make_v to_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n represent_v the_o injury_n do_v we_o by_o england_n in_o order_n to_o such_o redress_n as_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n will_v bear_v and_o for_o prevent_v of_o future_a injury_n 2_o do_v that_o since_o hitherto_o we_o have_v receive_v much_o loss_n and_o little_a gain_n if_o any_o by_o our_o be_v unite_v under_o one_o sovereign_a with_o england_n and_o that_o the_o opposition_n which_o occur_v in_o the_o interest_n of_o two_o distinct_a kingdom_n under_o one_o sovereign_a be_v not_o only_a embarassing_n but_o oft_o time_n hurtful_a especial_o to_o the_o weak_a that_o therefore_o the_o union_n of_o the_o two_o kingdom_n either_o entire_o or_o at_o least_o as_o to_o mutual_a trade_n among_o themselves_o may_v be_v now_o serious_o intend_v and_o speedy_o prosecute_v as_o hitherto_o it_o have_v be_v only_o pretend_v and_o treat_v rather_o in_o jest_n than_o earnest_a by_o which_o great_a evil_n that_o threaten_v britain_n may_v be_v prevent_v or_o if_o this_o be_v impracticable_a or_o on_o any_o account_v reject_v the_o king_n and_o parliament_n will_v be_v humble_o supplicate_v to_o explicat_fw-la our_o mutual_a interest_n so_o that_o we_o may_v be_v not_o be_v use_v by_o our_o neighbour_n of_o england_n during_o our_o nominal_a union_n with_o they_o as_o slave_n in_o time_n of_o war_n nor_o as_o alien_n in_o time_n of_o peace_n of_o both_o which_o hitherto_o we_o have_v have_v many_o sensible_a experiment_n 3_o tio_fw-la since_o it_o be_v think_v that_o we_o may_v legal_o possess_v a_o part_n of_o the_o isthmus_n of_o ameria_n where_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n pretend_v right_o though_o he_o have_v garrison_n and_o possession_n near_o adjacent_a on_o this_o ground_n that_o he_o be_v not_o in_o actual_a possession_n of_o the_o very_a place_n that_o now_o we_o may_v address_v his_o majesty_n as_o king_n of_o england_n to_o allow_v we_o the_o like_a privilege_n and_o faculty_n in_o the_o isle_n and_o continent_n of_o america_n near_o adjacent_a to_o the_o english_a plantation_n where_o we_o may_v have_v better_a neighbourhood_n and_o may_v claim_v more_o favour_n than_o from_o the_o spaniard_n 4_o to_z that_o the_o privilege_n grant_v to_o our_o company_n have_v be_v render_v ineffectual_a hitherto_o by_o what_o occure_v that_o therefore_o now_o we_o may_v supplicat_fw-la the_o king_n and_o parliament_n for_o a_o further_a prorogation_n of_o the_o time_n of_o our_o privilege_n and_o likewise_o in_o consideration_n of_o our_o very_a great_a loss_n and_o that_o this_o project_n of_o we_o tend_v more_o to_o the_o national_a advantage_n than_o to_o any_o private_a gain_n viz_o the_o settle_n of_o a_o colony_n in_o america_n in_o order_n to_o vent_v our_o native_a product_n by_o a_o canal_n of_o our_o own_o and_o for_o bring_v to_o we_o needful_a thing_n from_o abroad_o in_o return_n of_o our_o own_o good_n and_o not_o by_o the_o waist_n of_o our_o stock_n and_o what_o be_v for_o a_o common_a good_a shall_v be_v sustain_v for_o a_o common_a stock_n that_o therefore_o the_o king_n and_o nation_n may_v contribute_v to_o the_o resturation_n of_o our_o company_n for_o which_o end_n it_o be_v humble_o propose_v it_o be_v propose_v that_o since_o wine_n import_v in_o so_o great_a quantity_n as_o be_v usual_a be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v of_o necessary_a use_n that_o it_o may_v rather_o be_v esteem_v seperfluous_a and_o yet_o a_o prohibition_n of_o its_o import_n absolute_o be_v not_o acceptable_a to_o the_o people_n that_o his_o majesty_n may_v dispense_v with_o a_o four_o part_n of_o the_o custom_n and_o excyse_n of_o wine_n import_v be_v the_o common_a stock_n of_o the_o african_a company_n this_o proposition_n will_v be_v the_o more_o acceptable_a to_o the_o nation_n if_o the_o wine_n so_o savour_v be_v restrict_v only_o to_o the_o wine_n import_v for_o the_o return_n of_o their_o exported_a fish_n allenarly_a and_o whereof_o sufficient_a prooff_o be_v make_v that_o they_o be_v return_v on_o the_o company_n be_v account_n and_o by_o the_o product_n of_o their_o exported_a fish_n or_o if_o additional_a custom_n of_o a_o four_o part_v more_o than_o be_v pay_v present_o for_o wine_n be_v add_v on_o all_o wine_n not_o import_v be_v the_o company_n on_o the_o return_v foresay_v it_o be_v own_v that_o this_o will_v give_v the_o company_n the_o whole_a benefit_n of_o the_o import_v of_o wine_n which_o be_v no_o hurtful_a concession_n since_o a_o prohibition_n of_o 3_o part_n of_o 4_o of_o the_o wine_n that_o be_v import_v will_v not_o only_o be_v legal_a but_o perhaps_o most_o fit_a yet_o since_o the_o generality_n of_o people_n be_v so_o defireous_a of_o its_o import_n and_o that_o its_o consumpt_n be_v not_o by_o the_o poor_a but_o by_o those_o who_o have_v money_n to_o spare_v the_o importation_n of_o it_o may_v be_v the_o less_o grievous_a that_o the_o profit_n thereof_o shall_v go_v to_o support_v this_o company_n who_o who_o design_n and_o trade_n will_v be_v so_o beneficial_a to_o the_o nation_n and_o by_o this_o other_o merchant_n will_v be_v thereby_o induce_v to_o employ_v their_o stock_n on_o the_o other_o thing_n which_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o nation_n whereby_o the_o nation_n may_v be_v better_o furnish_v in_o all_o these_o material_n such_o as_o timber_n iron_n salt_n for_o fish_v copper_n flax_n hemp_n soap_n ash_n material_n for_o sugar_n etc._n etc._n by_o which_o manufactory_n will_v certain_o be_v increase_v idle_a hand_n employ_v and_o the_o poor_a sustain_v whereas_o now_o merchant_n employ_v their_o stock_n upon_o wine_n and_o neglect_v the_o material_n of_o other_o manufactory_n so_o that_o the_o privilege_n of_o import_v of_o wine_n be_v only_o in_o the_o african_a company_n be_v hand_n will_v both_o be_v some_o advantage_n to_o the_o company_n and_o a_o general_n good_a to_o the_o nation_n and_o if_o the_o same_o privilege_n be_v grant_v to_o the_o company_n on_o tobacco_n will_v be_v on_o the_o same_o ground_n desirable_a and_o this_o will_v encourage_v the_o company_n to_o bestow_v a_o great_a part_n of_o their_o stock_n upon_o fishery_n and_o since_o the_o design_n and_o result_v of_o the_o african_a and_o indian_a trade_n will_v be_v without_o doubt_n to_o the_o nation_n in_o general_n and_o consequent_o to_o every_o individual_a person_n in_o it_o and_o that_o in_o justice_n a_o common_a good_a shall_v have_v a_o general_a concurrence_n and_o support_n and_o that_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o nation_n especial_o the_o great_a man_n and_o burrows_n have_v profess_v a_o great_a and_o extraordinar_a zeal_n for_o the_o concern_v of_o this_o company_n and_o that_o private_a person_n have_v now_o expendit_fw-la on_o their_o private_a stock_n above_o 200000_o lib._n sterling_n on_o this_o design_n albeit_o the_o profit_n be_v indeed_o the_o result_n of_o the_o nation_n and_o be_v not_o now_o to_o be_v reattempt_v without_o a_o considerable_a support_n from_o the_o nation_n therefore_o that_o three_o month_n cess_n yearly_a for_o 3_o or_o 4_o year_n may_v be_v impose_v in_o savour_n of_o this_o company_n with_o this_o provision_n that_o at_o least_o a_o three_o part_n thereof_o be_v employ_v on_o fishing_n on_o the_o scottish_a sea_n whereby_o the_o money_n so_o employ_v will_v indeed_o come_v to_o the_o common_a national_a profit_n and_o almost_o to_o every_o person_n in_o it_o in_o so_o much_o that_o if_o this_o quota_fw-la of_o money_n be_v put_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o good_a manager_n it_o be_v positive_o assert_v that_o it_o can_v not_o be_v so_o advantageous_o employ_v even_o for_o the_o particular_a person_n of_o the_o nation_n who_o contribute_v this_o cess_n as_o it_o may_v be_v for_o promove_v a_o fisherie_n and_o a_o indian_a trade_n in_o this_o company_n hand_n as_o the_o sequel_n of_o this_o paper_n will_v show_v and_o to_o the_o effect_n it_o may_v be_v manage_v aright_o it_o be_v propose_v that_o a_o general_n council_n of_o the_o company_n may_v be_v call_v present_o and_o three_o of_o every_o state_n and_o some_o of_o the_o king_n officer_n may_v join_v with_o the_o
