Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Farther Considerations on the Present State of Affairs, at Home and Abroad, as Affected by the Late Convention, in a Letter to the Minister: With an Appendix; Containing a True State of the South-Sea Company´s Affairs in 1718 For this Reason, every Encroachment of one Nation upon another, in that Trade, has been strictly guarded against in several Treaties, the principal Aim of which was to accommodate Differences in Europe. All these Treaties therefore may be look´d upon as so many Securities, which the contrasting Powers have given to Spain for the peaceable Possession of her American Commerce and Acquisitions. So that, while these are in Force, and while she takes Care to regulate her Conduct according to the Intention of these Treaties, and the general Rights of Nations, she is in no Danger of being stript of any Right or Possession she can justly claim in America. This will be plain to any one, who considers that the Treasures of the West Indies can be no where so well lodg´d, as in the Hands of a People, to whom neither Extent of Dominion gives Strength, nor Affluence of Treasure, Plenty. Whereas, should they fall into the Hands of a Nation more active and more industrious, that Nation may, by enhancing the Trade and engrossing the Treasures, soon create such a Dependency on herself, as may enable her in Time to give Laws to the rest of Europe.
