 these, the English yeoman will be soon able to defy all 

 foreign competition ; for, by greatly increasing the fer- 

 tility of his land with manures exclusively Ids own^ in 

 any quantity, always at command, and at the cheapest 

 rate, he will reap the just reward of his labours; and 

 then, when the quantity and consequent cheapness of 

 his crops is by such efforts amply increased, he need 

 not fear Foreign interference, as England, from the 

 increased prolifickness of her soil, may become a 

 Corn exporting Country. The Commercial and 

 Shipping interests will also be greatly improved, by the 

 same means of cheapening the article of Salt, while by 

 rapidly extending and increasing' the prosperity of our 

 FisIierieSf it will afford at all times the best means of 

 strengthening and upholding the Naval Potaer of the 



Nation.
