It has been asked of the sail-makers who have been ^ called, whether the Indian sails are as good as those made here : they answered no: I cannot doubt them when they say so; but they shew the effect the system in question has upon the interest of their trade. Although the sails may not be so good as ours, says one witness, the difference in the price, and the facility of getting them will make such amends, that, as the ships I have seen have been equipped with Indian sails, so they will contin...ue to be equipped.
What then remains, Sir, in the equipping of ships ? I have spoken of the masts, the blocks, the hemp, the cordage and the sails ; why ^ the metallic matters, iron and copper are still to be found from this country. Speaking upon existing circumstances, and I do not wish to go into more speculation than can be avoided ; I do not wish to view the state of things that may arise when the manufacture of metals shall be brought more extensively into use there; when the steam engine shall travel there; and when the means possessed in South America shall be carried tin-re.
