The interest of Great Britain considered with regard to her colonies and the acquisitions of Canada and Guadaloupe. To which are added, Observations concerning the increase of mankind, peopling of countries, &c. As the very ingenious, useful, and worthy author of this pamphlet (B------n F-------n, LL. D.) is well known and much esteemed by the principal gentlemen in England and America; and seeing that his other works have been received with universal applause; the present production needs no further recommendation to a generous, a free, an intelligent and publick-spirited people.
