Pagina 116 - If we consider our own country in its natural prospect, without any of the benefits and advantages of commerce, what a barren, uncomfortable spot of earth falls to our share...
Pagina 38 - Amsterdam has been fain, for many years, to lay down the taxes for them ; which is, in effect, to pay the taxes of Guelderland too. Struggle and contrive as you will, lay your taxes as you please, the traders will shift it off from their own gain ; the merchants will bear the least part of it, and grow poor last. In Holland...
Pagina 117 - Nor has traffic more enriched our vegetable world than it has improved the whole face of nature among us. Our ships are laden with the harvest of every climate: our tables are stored with spices, and...
