I take the earliest opportunity to inform you Sir, that notwithstanding the Treaty which the Farmers General have made with Mr. Robert Morris, for the delivery of a certain quantity of Tobacco, they have just Concluded to take in the way of Trade as much as 15,000 Hogsheads Per Annum. To let you understand better the Extent of the decision in question, I send it to you in the Extract enclosed. I beg that you will make it known both in America, as
also to the Americans, Owners of Vessels who may be found in our ports so as that they may direct their Commercial Speculations accordingly.
