15_o year_n past_a have_v put_v a_o stop_n to_o the_o regular_a proceed_n of_o the_o fleet_n they_o use_v to_o send_v annual_o to_o the_o vera-cruz_n cartagena_n porto_n bello_fw-la hunduras_n rio_n de_fw-fr la_fw-fr plata_fw-la havana_n marracaya_n and_o other_o place_n in_o their_o west-indies_n whither_o they_o carry_v great_a quantity_n of_o our_o english_a manufactory_n as_o well_o as_o of_o most_o other_o country_n and_o those_o ship_n in_o former_a time_n use_v to_o make_v a_o voyage_n in_o 12_o 14_o and_o 16_o month_n and_o bring_v to_o spain_n among_o they_o above_o thirty_o million_o of_o piece_n of_o eight_o in_o coin_n or_o in_o bullion_n which_o be_v above_o six_o million_o of_o pound_n sterling_a and_o since_o their_o war_n with_o france_n and_o the_o daily_a apprehension_n they_o have_v thereof_o it_o have_v be_v sometime_o three_o or_o four_o year_n interval_n between_o their_o come_n home_o and_o go_v out_o which_o have_v obstruct_v a_o great_a part_n of_o that_o consumption_n we_o use_v to_o have_v of_o our_o manufactory_n and_o the_o return_n that_o use_v to_o be_v make_v for_o they_o in_o plate_n and_o bullion_n and_o the_o french_a dutch_a genovese_n italian_n and_o portuguese_n have_v be_v proportionable_a sufferer_n by_o it_o also_o it_o have_v likewise_o have_v a_o influence_n on_o our_o turkey_n east-india_n barbary_n and_o guinea_n trade_n the_o say_a fleet_n take_v off_o great_a quantity_n of_o wax_n blacks_n mohair_n carpet_n calico_n silk-stocking_n make_v of_o turky-silk_n another_o reason_n why_o we_o have_v not_o that_o import_n of_o bullion_n and_o coin_n proceed_v from_o the_o charge_n of_o our_o fleet_n abroad_o the_o proceed_v of_o those_o good_n that_o use_v to_o be_v send_v home_o in_o plate_n and_o bullion_n be_v now_o divert_v to_o supply_v they_o another_o reason_n proceed_v from_o a_o great_a than_o usual_a import_n of_o spanish_a and_o portugal_n oil_n and_o wine_n since_o the_o war_n that_o we_o use_v to_o have_v from_o france_n and_o italy_n before_o in_o return_n for_o our_o manufactory_n which_o have_v also_o obstruct_v the_o import_n of_o the_o plate_n and_o bullion_n now_o this_o extraordinary_a import_n of_o spanish_a and_o portugal_n oil_n and_o wine_n proceed_v the_o latter_a from_o the_o expense_n of_o they_o in_o room_n of_o those_o we_o use_v to_o have_v from_o france_n before_o from_o the_o extraordinary_a hazard_n and_o charge_v it_o will_v be_v to_o the_o importer_n of_o oil_n to_o bring_v from_o mayork_n and_o gallipoly_n more_o than_o it_o be_v to_o bring_v they_o from_o portugal_n sevilla_n or_o malaga_n the_o further_a they_o fetch_v it_o the_o great_a be_v the_o freight_n as_o be_v the_o hazard_n and_o of_o consequence_n the_o insurance_n so_o that_o the_o merchant_n importer_n can_v and_o do_v from_o these_o consideration_n give_v a_o better_a price_n for_o oil_n in_o portugal_n and_o in_o any_o part_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o spain_n as_o high_a as_o malaga_n and_o thereby_o we_o lose_v the_o sale_n of_o many_o of_o our_o own_o manufactory_n that_o use_v to_o be_v truck_v for_o oil_n or_o that_o proceed_v employ_v therein_o and_o now_o be_v bring_v in_o great_a quantity_n from_o portugal_n and_o spain_n which_o the_o importer_n pay_v for_o in_o money_n obstruct_v the_o importation_n of_o so_o much_o as_o they_o import_n or_o of_o bullion_n or_o at_o least_o increase_v our_o debt_n on_o the_o balance_n of_o those_o trade_n another_o reason_n that_o have_v prevent_v that_o import_n of_o plate_n and_o bullion_n proceed_v from_o the_o little_a encouragement_n that_o have_v be_v give_v to_o trade_n in_o general_n and_o the_o little_a care_n have_v to_o our_o manufactory_n in_o particular_a the_o return_n of_o which_o will_v have_v supply_v we_o with_o bullion_n enough_o from_o those_o country_n that_o take_v off_o the_o product_n of_o we_o to_o carry_v on_o a_o trade_n with_o those_o that_o do_v not_o but_o we_o have_v lose_v the_o expense_n of_o many_o of_o they_o by_o not_o keep_v they_o up_o to_o a_o standard_n as_o the_o colchester_n bay_n be_v or_o aught_o by_o law_n to_o be_v every_o one_o make_v our_o serge_n

other_o country_n have_v be_v introduce_v in_o the_o room_n of_o they_o and_o the_o make_n of_o our_o silk-stocking_n of_o east-india_n silk_n that_o use_v to_o be_v of_o turkey_n we_o have_v thereby_o lose_v the_o expense_n of_o they_o in_o spain_n and_o in_o the_o spanish_a west-indies_n for_o which_o market_n i_o have_v know_v
