The African trade, the great pillar and support of the British plantation trade in America: Shewing, that our loss, by being beat out of all foreign markets for sugar and indigo by the French, has been owing to the neglect of our African trade; which only, can supply our colonies with Negroes, for the making the sugars, and all other plantation produce: that the support and security of the Negroe-trade depends wholly on the due and effectual support of the Royal African Company of England, which has hitherto preserved this invaluable trade to these kingdoms: that the difficulties and discouragements which the said company labours under, threaten the absolute loss of the Negroe trade to this nation; and consequently the total ruin of all the British plantations in America: and also, what the Royal African Company have a natural right to hope for this session of Parliament from their country, in order to enable them to support and maintain the British interest, rights and privileges in Africa against the French, and all other rivals in the same most valuable trade. In a letter to the Right Honourable ************ Every one knows, that our African Company is now in a manner dissolved to the great joy both of the Dutch and French; and it behoves us, if we are not infatuated, to put it speedily on a better foot than formerly, and not to let such an important branch of our commerce be lop'd off, to the enriching our neighbours, and our own scandal- -The Negroe-trade alone is of a most pradigious consequence, and capable to render our African Company the most flourishing of any in the kingdom; and it must be confessed, that it is the most beneficial to this island, of all the companies that ever were formed by our merchants, &c. -A proposal humbling Spain, &c. 1742.
