Expedition of Mr. Banks, Preparations for Leaving, and Account of Tupia (continued) The best articles for traffick here are axes, hatchets, spikes, large nails, looking-glasses, knives, and beads, for some of which, every thing that the natives have may be procured. They are indeed fond of fine linen cloth, both white and printed; but an ax worth half a crown, will fetch more than a piece of cloth worth twenty shillings. Voyaging Accounts © Derived from Vols.
