where they are walh d, the more lively will the printed and painted colours an-
pear. It is'eafy todiftingmlh between the printed and the painted Calicuts-
and between the neatnefs of the work : but for the finenefs and other oua’
lines, they are not fo eafily difcern’d j and therefore the Broaker mult be more
careful.
Cheats in Cotton.
T H E cheat in A t ,e ^.ght is twofold. The firft, by laying them in a moiit
, pla %i a r d thr 1 uIbng in the middle of every SkainTomething toadd to the
weight. The fecond, in not giving good weight when the Broaker receives it
from the Workman, oi Merchant that delivers it.
There is but one cheat in the quality, that is by putting three or four Skains
ofa coarfer Commodity than that which is uppermoft, into one Mem
Which in a great quantity mounts high; for there are fome Cottons that
areworth. an hunderd Crowns the Me*. Thefe two cheats being often
usd by the y*/W-Company, there is no way but to weigh vour Com
modity in the prefence of the -D/wb-Commander, and his Councel and to
examine every Mew, Skain by Skain. When this is done they who are
erderd to be at this examination, are oblig’d to fix to every Bale a ticket
of the weight and quality : for if there be a faileur, they who fix the ticket
are engag’d to make good what is wanting.

Deceits in Indigo.

Have told you, that when the Work-men have made up the Indigo-Palle into
lumps, with their lingers dipt in Oil,they lay them in the Sun a drying. Now
t i°,e that have a delign to cheat the Merchants, dry them in thefand,to the end
, t tlle ftpd flacking to the Indigo, Ihould encreafe the weight. Sometimes they
lay up their Pafte in moilt places, which makes it give ,andconfequently renders
it more heavy. But if the Governour of the place difcovers the cheatie makes
hem feverely pay for it • and the bell way of difcovery is to burn fom pieces of
Indigo, for the fand will remain.
Indian Broakers.

all uoods at their difpofal. The Work-men choofe the moft aged and molt
