(d) by net amount seems to be here meant,

what was considered as the net amount of the sums received in Spain, after deduction

made of those expended in Ultramaria. But, to find the result in respect of profit

and loss from the dominion over Ultramaria to Spain, against this so stiled net amount, must be set that part of the aggregate expence

of Spain, which, but for the dominion, would not have had existence: and which it is

supposed would not be found so little as twice the amount of this stiled net profit.

The alcavalas on American production (says Townsend) are omitted, as

are also "some other taxes, of which the Count was not able to procure any

information"

(a) Per Count de Grepi, according to Townsend II. 181. 2d.

Edition, Count de Grepi was Imperial Consul at Cadiz 16 II. 412. "The revenue in America are Townsend's words. Probably on this and every

other occasion, American was employed in a sense coxtensive with that of Ultramarian:

in comparison with than of American the receipt and expedition of all the other parts

of the Ultramarian dominion of Spain being of too small account to be regarded as

worth a distinct notice.
