THE OLD WHIG: OR, THE CONSISTENT PROTESTANT, London, January 26, 1737-8  A page 2 report says:

Another report says that the colony of Carolina passed an act "...prohibiting and preventing the exportation of Corn and other Grain from that Province to any other Place than the Colony of Georgia."

A rare title published for just four years. Front page has a red-inked tax stamp in the lower right corner. Bit of rubbing on the front page.
