'^^; f i ButI have (till fotneching further to obferve upon (his Head ; for it is my humble Opinion, thatifwecoi^d obtain cither by Tre^tj ot by Con^iie^ tl[yids Qolden Mines we dream of, they wouMnot be half foad^ta- fiious to us,as the bare Liberty of Trading thei«,and of exchanging our Goods for Bullion. This is the pro- per Bufinels of our Country: Thus our People are cmpldy'd, our Manufactures are improv'd, and our Gonftitution is prefe'rv'd : But this I have ihewd the JFrencb will never grant: And the Gold or Silver Mines/ if we cou'dhave them, wou'd only deftroy our Induftry, and make us fuch a lazy Generation as th& Spaniar/is. ThofeTreafuces niay be proper to o- ver-turn a Free Government, or to fupport aTyrannyi jand therefofb France rrny woW be fond of them, where ^reat Arn^ies are to be maintained, great Bribes are to be provided, anduniverfal Servitude is defignM for the reft of Europe, But Trade and Libeny are all we •want orwifli for: And thofe that araufeus with a iSoutb-SeaVrojcd:^ and Settlements in ^ww^tf, if they have any other Meaning than a diftant Banter, are only forming fuch Defigns, as in other Countries have debased the Spirits of the People, or have made the Crown independent. This is the moft we fliould get by our new Settle* mentsy out Porto-hello y and fuch like PiUc«, if ever they ihouM be convey'd to us upon the firm Security of the French King's Faith and Honour :They areFlaces which we could not keep if we would j and Which would certainly hurt us if we could : As the Garrifons at Crf- diz, and elfewhere would be a dangerous Force in Times of Peace, a juft Ocfcafion of Jealoufie in the People, and wholly inconfiftent with the Nature of our Government 5 fo that the more Forts we ihoit'd obtain, the worfe it would be for us ; becaMie they %vould require a ftantog Army. "Yiec chefe are thej in- giving a Country and for would I of the C Majeftles pleased t to make dine her gottatiori itid Addf proposed, proceed! ineftimable Benefits that the French propofe td us In order to obtain a Congrefs ; which they have fo long impatiently dcGr'd. For they knoir very well the Ad^ vantage they have at fuch Conferences j and every body elfe knows the Danger of 4/4«y treating with Om^ and the Diiagreementsand Qiiarrels that have generally at- tended ftch Meetings.

Nor would I be thought by this to difpute the Prerojltive^ of the Crown, in making War or Peace; both are her Majefties undoubted Right : But as (he was gracioufly pleased to cottimunicate to her Parliament her Lntehcion to make War, the fame Wifdom and Goodnefswill in- cline her M — -y to confult them in the difficult Ne- gotiations of Peace ,• not to mention again the Fotet itiA Addreffas that ftand in Oppoficion to the Treaty now proposed, and mnfl: be nver%^d before our Minifterscan proceed in Safety •, even upon the Foot of the old Vnli-^ E a mmn(s 'I (a8) mkitries, and tJic Expkhation of the 37lh Aruid^ And fincc we arc already to treat with fb^F^tmb agaia, why ihould It not ftill be upon thofc PrcHmliiaries ?
