A new discourse of trade: wherein are recommended several weighty points relating to companies of merchants, the act of navigation, naturalization of strangers, and our woollen manufactures : The balance of trade, and the nature of plantations, with their consequences in relation to the kingdom, are seriously discussed: methods for the employment and maintenance of the poor are proposed: the reduction of interest of money to 4£. per cent. is recommended: and some proposals for erecting a Court of Merchants for determining controversies relating to maritime affairs, and for a law for transference of bills of debts, are humbly offered. By Sir Josiah Child.
