the_o case_n of_o the_o contractor_n with_o the_o c'zar_n of_o moscovy_n for_o the_o sole_a importation_n of_o tobacco_n into_o his_o dominion_n they_o be_v encourage_v to_o enter_v into_o a_o treaty_n with_o the_o czar_n for_o a_o free_a importation_n of_o tobacco_n into_o his_o dominion_n by_o a_o bill_n that_o be_v depend_v in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o for_o enlarge_a the_o trade_n to_o russia_n by_o a_o easy_a admission_n into_o the_o freedom_n of_o that_o company_n and_o they_o defer_v the_o conclude_v any_o absolute_a agreement_n till_o the_o bill_n have_v pass_v that_o house_n and_o have_v defer_v it_o till_o it_o have_v pass_v the_o house_n of_o lord_n and_o the_o royal_a assent_n but_o that_o the_o c'zar_n and_o his_o minister_n be_v then_o upon_o their_o departure_n they_o think_v a_o thing_n of_o that_o nature_n so_o great_o and_o unquestionable_o advantageous_a to_o this_o kingdom_n and_o by_o which_o no_o man_n property_n be_v invade_v because_o the_o bill_n make_v no_o alteration_n in_o their_o charter_n but_o only_o fix_v the_o fine_a for_o admission_n which_o neither_o their_o charter_n nor_o the_o act_n of_o parliament_n that_o confirm_v it_o take_v any_o notice_n of_o will_v not_o have_v meet_v with_o any_o opposition_n they_o pay_v the_o c'zar_n 12000_o l._n immediate_o upon_o sign_v the_o contract_n and_o it_o cost_v they_o above_o 1000_o l._n more_o in_o other_o charge_n to_o obtain_v it_o and_o this_o they_o do_v before_o one_o half_a of_o the_o sum_n be_v subscribe_v that_o be_v intend_v for_o a_o stock_n sufficient_a to_o carry_v on_o the_o trade_n but_o when_o the_o bill_n be_v oppose_v all_o further_a subscription_n cease_v every_o body_n be_v sensible_a that_o without_o a_o freedom_n of_o the_o russia_n company_n the_o trade_n can_v not_o be_v carry_v on_o to_o any_o advantage_n and_o unless_o the_o term_n of_o admission_n be_v very_o easy_a those_o person_n that_o be_v but_o little_o concern_v in_o the_o tobacco_n contract_n will_v not_o take_v their_o freedom_n and_o except_o every_o man_n concern_v be_v free_a the_o trade_n can_v not_o be_v drive_v thus_o the_o whole_a burden_n of_o that_o undertake_n fall_v upon_o the_o shoulder_n of_o seventy_o or_o eighty_o person_n who_o be_v the_o first_o subscriber_n and_o some_o of_o those_o upon_o the_o forementioned_a discouragement_n do_v refuse_v to_o pay_v their_o proportion_n of_o the_o 13000_o l._n or_o be_v any_o way_n concern_v in_o the_o trade_n nevertheless_o the_o rest_n think_v it_o needful_a to_o send_v some_o tobacco_n and_o thereby_o show_v their_o willingness_n to_o comply_v with_o their_o part_n of_o the_o contract_n lest_o the_o c'zar_n shall_v take_v a_o advantage_n by_o their_o neglect_n and_o so_o they_o may_v lose_v the_o 12000_o l._n pay_v he_o and_o all_o their_o other_o charge_n and_o the_o nation_n the_o advantage_n of_o that_o liberty_n which_o have_v be_v so_o long_o desire_v but_o the_o bill_n not_o pass_v and_o the_o russia_n company_n have_v power_n to_o seize_v any_o englishman_n ship_n and_o good_n that_o trade_n to_o russia_n without_o their_o licence_n they_o can_v not_o send_v any_o tobacco_n from_o hence_o direct_o for_o archangel_n the_o only_a port_n of_o russia_n therefore_o they_o order_v about_o 110000_o pound_n of_o virginia_n leaf_n that_o be_v first_o send_v from_o london_n to_o holland_n to_o be_v send_v from_o holland_n thither_o what_o more_o they_o can_v get_v ready_a for_o that_o season_n which_o be_v about_o 180000_o pound_n of_o role_n and_o cut_a tobacco_n with_o tobacco_n pipe_n box_n etc._n etc._n they_o be_v force_v to_o send_v from_o hence_o by_o way_n of_o narva_n a_o sweed_n port_n which_o have_v prove_v very_o prejudicial_a to_o they_o because_o the_o sweed_n demand_v upon_o the_o role_n 17_o and_o upon_o the_o cut_n 34_o per_fw-la cent._n custom_n according_a to_o the_o true_a value_n all_o which_o may_v have_v be_v save_v if_o they_o have_v have_v liberty_n to_o have_v send_v it_o direct_o to_o archangel_n their_o factor_n in_o russia_n have_v sell_v part_n of_o the_o tobacco_n that_o be_v send_v they_o and_o write_v that_o in_o a_o few_o year_n a_o very_a considerable_a quantity_n may_v be_v vend_v there_o but_o be_v a_o new_a thing_n it_o will_v require_v time_n and_o a_o great_a charge_n to_o put_v it_o into_o a_o right_a method_n and_o make_v it_o diffusive_a throughout_o that_o vast_a empire_n they_o hope_v their_o undertaking_a be_v of_o such_o national_a advantage_n and_o by_o which_o they_o have_v at_o present_a so_o little_a prospect_n of_o profit_n to_o themselves_o will_v meet_v with_o all_o due_a encouragement_n from_o the_o public_a if_o they_o can_v obtain_v their_o freedom_n of_o the_o russia_n company_n this_o session_n upon_o moderate_a term_n they_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o comply_v with_o their_o contract_n with_o the_o c'zar_n but_o must_v be_v force_v to_o throw_v up_o their_o patent_n or_o dispose_v of_o it_o to_o the_o dutch_a on_o the_o best_a term_n they_o can_v for_o the_o russia_n company_n will_v neither_o make_v use_n of_o it_o themselves_o though_o the_o
