A54635 Britannia languens: or, A discourse of trade shewing, that the present management of trade in England, is the true reason of the decay of our manufactures, and the late great fall of land-rents; and that the increase of trade, in the method it now stands in, must proportionably decay England. Wherein is particularly demonstrated, that the East-India Company, as now managed, has already near destroyed our trade in those parts, as well as that with Turky, and in short time must necessarily beggar the nation. Humbly offered to the consideration of this present Parliament. Petyt, William, 1636-1707. 1689 (1689) Wing P1947; ESTC R218978 144,323 343

the_o utmost_a neat_a gain_n of_o our_o former_a english_a trade_n amount_v to_o but_o 300000_o l._n per_n and_o one_o year_n with_o another_o then_o if_o the_o exportation_n and_o beneficial_a merchandise_n of_o england_n shall_v become_v worse_o by_o 400000_o l._n per_n and_o one_o year_n with_o another_o than_o before_o the_o nation_n of_o england_n must_v lose_v 100000_o l._n per_n and_o of_o its_o national_a treasure_n though_o our_o yearly_a importation_n be_v no_o more_o in_o value_n than_o before_o whence_o it_o appear_v that_o by_o this_o mean_v the_o same_o importation_n may_v become_v excessive_a so_o though_o our_o exportation_n and_o the_o beneficial_a part_n of_o our_o merchandise_n continue_v as_o valuable_a as_o before_o yet_o if_o our_o yearly_a consumptive_a importation_n grow_v to_o be_v more_o in_o value_n by_o 400000_o l._n per_n and_o than_o before_o the_o nation_n must_v also_o in_o this_o case_n lose_v 100000_o l._n per_n and_o by_o trade_n but_o what_o if_o both_o the_o beneficial_a part_n of_o the_o trade_n grow_v worse_o and_o also_o the_o importation_n increase_v certain_o this_o must_v cut_v deep_a on_o the_o national_a stock_n and_o must_v soon_o grind_v it_o out_o for_o than_o if_o the_o beneficial_a part_n grow_v worse_o by_o 400000_o l._n and_o the_o import_v part_n be_v increase_v 400000_o l._n per_n and_o value_n the_o nation_n must_v then_o lose_v 500000_o l._n per_fw-la annum_fw-la or_o suppose_v but_o to_o half_a those_o value_v in_o each_o the_o nation_n must_v lose_v 100000_o l._n per_fw-la annum_fw-la to_o accommodate_v these_o hypothesis_n to_o england_n first_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o the_o beneficial_a part_n of_o our_o trade_n have_v grow_v much_o less_o and_o worse_a yearly_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o unequal_a clog_n and_o difficulty_n on_o our_o home_n and_o foreign_a trade_n and_o that_o on_o the_o other_o side_n our_o importation_n must_v as_o necessary_o be_v increase_v both_o by_o the_o decay_n of_o our_o own_o former_a manufacture_n at_o home_n and_o by_o our_o modern_a gawd'ry_n and_o affectation_n of_o foreign_a good_n and_o as_o our_o trade_n from_o port_n to_o port_n have_v become_v more_o impracticable_a to_o any_o advantage_n the_o exporter_n of_o our_o remain_a manufacture_n and_o other_o home-commodity_n must_v either_o come_v back_o empty_a or_o else_o must_v fraught_v themselves_o homeward_o with_o such_o consumptive_a foreign_a commodity_n as_o for_o gawdry_n novelty_n cheapness_n or_o lyquorishness_n will_v dazzle_v tempt_v and_o bewitch_v our_o people_n to_o buy_v they_o in_o which_o course_n of_o trade_n our_o merchant_n may_v gain_v considerable_a proportion_n of_o our_o remain_a treasure_n as_o long_o as_o there_o be_v any_o in_o the_o nation_n nay_o rather_o than_o sit_v idle_a they_o will_v and_o do_v freight_v themselves_o outward_o with_o mere_a ballast_n and_o bill_n of_o exchange_n by_o which_o the_o importation_n of_o foreign_a bullion_n or_o money_n be_v prevent_v be_v or_o if_o bill_n of_o exchange_n can_v reasonable_o be_v have_v as_o they_o usual_o can_v to_o those_o country_n where_o we_o be_v overballance_v in_o trade_n than_o they_o export_v money_n and_o bullion_n and_o buy_v and_o import_v consumptive_a good_n which_o be_v spend_v at_o home_n which_o kind_n of_o trade_n deserve_v rather_o to_o be_v call_v foreign_a peddle_v than_o merchandise_n it_o may_v partly_o be_v remember_v here_o how_o much_o the_o beneficial_a part_n of_o our_o trade_n may_v be_v prejudice_v by_o the_o loss_n of_o 100000_o of_o our_o manufacture_n and_o what_o odds_o the_o same_o loss_n may_v produce_v in_o our_o importation_n since_o if_o they_o get_v but_o 6_o l._n per_fw-la ann._n a_o piece_n it_o must_v sink_v the_o former_a gain_n by_o trade_n no_o less_o than_o 600000_o l._n per_fw-la ann._n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n that_o if_o a_o million_o of_o family_n or_o person_n in_o a_o nation_n do_v one_o with_o the_o other_o consume_v to_o the_o value_n of_o 20_o s._n a_o piece_n more_o yearly_a in_o foreign_a manufacture_n drink_n etc._n etc._n than_o before_o this_o must_v increase_v our_o importation_n to_o the_o value_n of_o a_o million_o per_fw-la ann._n which_o i_o observe_v here_o to_o show_v how_o imperceptible_o a_o overbalance_n of_o importation_n may_v creep_v upon_o a_o nation_n and_o that_o the_o reader_n may_v with_o the_o less_o difficulty_n conjecture_v at_o the_o late_a and_o present_a balance_n of_o trade_n in_o england_n it_o must_v also_o much_o assist_v this_o import_v trade_n if_o the_o merchant_n shall_v export_v money_n or_o bullion_n especial_o in_o such_o a_o nation_n as_o england_n where_o a_o trade_n from_o port_n to_o port_n be_v not_o

of_o their_o importation_n on_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o people_n this_o consumptive_a import_v trade_n must_v be_v of_o very_o fatal_a consequence_n in_o its_o nature_n for_o first_o while_o the_o

and_o keep_v money_n dead_a for_o the_o custom_n this_o be_v also_o the_o great_a port_n for_o foreign_a importation_n and_o the_o country_n retailer_n who_o buy_v they_o there_o and_o vend_fw-mi

that_o the_o occasion_n vanity_n or_o the_o remain_a stock_n of_o the_o kingdom_n can_v ever_o support_v such_o a_o prodigious_a increase_n of_o retailer_n and_o shopkeeper_n as_o be_v in_o and_o

attend_v foreign_a effect_n for_o which_o we_o may_v also_o remember_v when_o our_o effect_n be_v seize_v in_o spain_n but_o second_o suppose_v none_o of_o those_o casualty_n yet_o as_o a_o national_a trade_n may_v be_v manage_v these_o store_n and_o effect_n shall_v produce_v no_o new_a treasure_n to_o the_o nation_n as_o when_o these_o foreign_a good_n and_o store_n be_v and_o must_v be_v spend_v at_o home_n and_o the_o foreign_a effect_n be_v continual_o by_o bill_n of_o exchange_n apply_v to_o pay_v for_o those_o foreign_a good_n so_o if_o the_o merchant_n be_v sometime_o force_v to_o
