Excerpt from Shipping After the WarDutch 'got possession of that country in the late war, is so totally lost to the English that we have now no more commerce with that country than we should have if it were sunk in the sea, so severe and exact are the Hollanders in keeping the trades of their own plantations entirely to their own people.The trade of Menades, or New York, we should have gained instead of the former, since we got posses sion of that place in the late war, if the Dutch had not been connived at therein at first, which now I hope they are not, for if they should be, it would not only be to the entire loss of that trade to England, but greatly to the prejudice of the Dutch trade to Virginia, because the Dutch, under pretence of trading to and from New York, carry great quantities of Virginia tobacco directly for Holland.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
