Rid Yourselves of Ultramaria

'. 1. Creoles Willing

4. Supposable source the fourth. Emolument

from Ultramarian offices: Money, which, by Spaniards sent from Spain, might come to

be received, in the shape of official emolument, attached

to official situations in Spanish America.

From this source, no relief in respect of diminution of taxes, would

be experienced by the subject many in Spain: the benefit, though received by

Spaniards, would be engrossed by the ruling few, who could not receive it without

ceasing to be inhabitants of Spain. To p. 9

5. Supposable source the fifth. Men, for military service: men, sent from Ultramarian Spain

to serve in a military capacity in Spain. From this source, no relief in respect of

diminution of taxes, would be experienced by the subject

many in Peninsula Spain: at a less price than it would cost to import them from

Ultramaria men might be obtained, for this service, either in Spain, or in some other

country of Europe: for example in Switerland the hired troops of which country have

lately with such obvious propriety been dismissed. The foreigners would be well

affected, or they would not enlist. The Ultramarians, if enlisted by force to be

banished and thus kept in servitude could not be otherwise than disaffected: and

voluntarily they could not without premium too enormous to be given be engaged to

exchange freedom at home to such servitude in a strange and distant region.

In the above may be seen all the sources, and supposed sources, of supply, at the

charge of America, /Ultramarian Spain/ that ever have been, or ever (it is believed)

could be resorted to, under the notion of affording, to the subject many in Spain,

relief or benefit derived in any [...?] shape from a dominion exercised in that

country by those by whom the powers of governent are exercised in Peninsula

Spain.
