sensibly stopped the further progress and improve- ment, and afterwards by degrees dwarfed and crashed the fisheries of this kingdom to such a degree, that, instead of exportations worth any mention, the na- tion hath not for a long time been in a condition to furnish itself one half of what fish might be reason- ably consumed therein, nor is what we have com- monly half so good and wholesome as by national care and industry it might otherwise be. " As on the one hand we cannot nor ought not, i...n reason or justice, to suppose, that their then re- spective Majesties and Estates of Parliament de- signed anything by these two last-mentioned Acts but the good of the kingdom in general, and of the fisheries thereof in particular, so it must needs seem strange to those who have anything deeply and ripely considered this matter, to think how and by ' what means possible the Parliaments could be moved to pass such Acts, as not only by their fatal conse- quences, but even by the plain and apparent sense and meaning thereof, are so pernicious and destmo- tive, not only to the increase and improvement bat to the very nature and being of the fisheries; to load them with exclusions and pre-emptions, which, all things considered, were not less but rather more heavy and burthensome than one hundred per eent.
