The Englishman´s Letters Relative to the Trade Between Great Britain and the East-Indies

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Englishman´s Letters Relative to the Trade Between Great Britain and the East-Indies: In Which the Exclusive Rights of the East-India Company, and the Rights of the Private Merchants, Under the Act of 1793, Are Discussed It is not likely that you should be inattentive, either to the critical situation of your affairs at this important time, or to the conduct of your Court of Directors in their management of them. There is, however an inactivity in a body constituted as ours is (for I am also a Proprietor of India Stock) which requires to be stimulated occasionally; or else there is an overweening confidence in our Directors that it is equally necessary to guard against. I shall therefore dedicate a few observations to you, from time to time, in hopes that they may be found not altogether unworthy of your notice. It is a difficult, as well as a delicate point, to adjust precisely the balance of interference between the constituent and the constituted body if it preponderate with the former, it may lead to tumult and confusion; if with the latter, it is apt to degenerate into contempt of authority, and impatience of control. I think it may be safely asserted, and will be generally assented to, that of late the Proprietors have been the ascending scale; and that a sort of complaisant confidence has been placed in the Directors, which, in addition to their political and patronal consequence, has given them greater weight than is either requisite or proper.
