A Coppie of a Letter from the Lord cheife Iustices in Ireland , with a Proclamation of the Rebells therein inclosed , together with the massacring of all those , that obeyed not the same . The Letter was dated the 5. of November . 1641. From the Castle in Dublin .

THe Calamity on the English and Protestants in Ireland is great , and the mischiefes , that the Rebells have done , are many , and so much the more ought to bee severely executed by reason of a Proclamation , which the Rebells have put out . Commanding all those , that are either English , or Protestants , to bee gone away immediately after the publishing thereof ; or otherwise to take what punishment the Rebells shall inflict upon them ; and that they doe execute with all cruelty , by cutting off the heads of all those that remaine , and by burning their Villages , and putting both Man , woman and Child , to the sword .

To the House of PARLIAMENT .
Propositions of the Merchants for a West-Jndia Company . With the obiections made against it , and Answers to the obiections .

WHeteher the House would grantt them a free trade or no ?

Whethe the House would grant it in a publique way or no , to all in generall , that would come in .

Whether the House would not grant it to any particular person , that would desire it or no.

Obiections against the East-India Companie .

THat the stocke , which should mannage the same , would be too great to venture in the Subiects hands , and bee a meanes to make them too peremptorie against their Prince , if any difference should arise between them .

The King of Spaines power was so great and so vast , that it would bee very difficult to effect it .

Answers by the Merchants of the West-India Company to the Obiections .

IT cannot bee too great a stocke because shipping can never bee too great , and now more especially , because the defence of the Kingdome lies upon the same .

The power of Spayne was never so much weakened as now it is , for every Prince pluckes a feather from it ; As Portugall , France , and the Low-Countries : therefore England would be very improvident , if it did not share amonst them .
