A30311	Two proposals, humbly offer'd to the Honourable House of Commons, now assembled in Parliament I. That a duty be laid on malt, in the stead of the present duty on beer and ale, and likewise, that the several engagements that revenue lies under, be transferr'd on that of malt, II. That a duty be laid on malt, and the present duty on beer and ale be continued : to which is annex'd an accompt, what in all probability the frauds of brewers do amount to, and wherin such frauds are prejudicial to the King, to the subject, and to the trade itself : likewise by what means such grievances are most properly redress'd / by A.

instead_o thereof_o a_o much_o great_a and_o a_o quick_a return_n there_o be_v very_o little_a danger_n of_o their_o receive_v any_o prejudice_n thereby_o but_o it_o be_v plain_a they_o will_v

it_o be_v humble_o presume_v the_o 2_o s._n thus_o levy_v will_v be_v as_o universal_a as_o any_o tax_n that_o have_v yet_o be_v levy_v now_o if_o the_o universality_n of_o a_o tax_n prove_v its_o

such_o a_o method_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v moral_o impossible_a that_o the_o maker_n of_o malt_n can_v defraud_v the_o tax_n or_o any_o part_n thereof_o how_o much_o this_o will_v advance_v beyond_o what_o now_o it_o do_v i_o will_v not_o pretend_v to_o say_v because_o i_o think_v no_o just_a or_o certain_a estimation_n can_v be_v make_v thereof_o but_o when_o once_o we_o reflect_v on_o the_o great_a quantity_n of_o stout_a or_o double-ales_n and_o stout_a or_o double-beer_n that_o the_o several_a and_o almost_o all_o the_o county_n in_o england_n nay_o that_o pass_v by_o the_o name_n of_o each_o county_n or_o town_n that_o be_v consume_v in_o this_o town_n not_o to_o mention_v what_o every_o town_n or_o county_n consume_v itself_o of_o those_o sort_n of_o liquor_n even_o london_n and_o middlesex_n not_o exempt_v which_o pay_v as_o it_o be_v lay_v on_o the_o drink_n no_o more_o duty_n than_o the_o common_a ale_n and_o strong_a beer_n the_o common_a brewer_n brew_v which_o consume_v five_o time_n the_o malt_n in_o proportion_n to_o every_o barrel_n of_o those_o sort_n of_o liquor_n that_o the_o common_a ale_n and_o beer_n do_v and_o perhaps_o it_o be_v not_o very_o difficult_a to_o prove_v be_v it_o necessary_a that_o it_o be_v the_o chief_a cause_n the_o humour_n of_o this_o town_n as_o well_o as_o the_o country_n run_v more_o of_o late_a upon_o these_o very_a strong_a liquor_n than_o heretofore_o that_o the_o excise_n on_o ale_n and_o beer_n when_o doubled_n do_v not_o amount_v to_o twice_o the_o value_n of_o the_o excise_n when_o single_a together_o with_o the_o difficulty_n of_o detect_v the_o fraud_n of_o brewer_n which_o they_o be_v encourage_v to_o so_o much_o the_o more_o by_o so_o much_o the_o great_a the_o duty_n be_v nay_o the_o commissioner_n of_o excise_n can_v if_o they_o please_v tell_v you_o it_o do_v not_o amount_v to_o much_o more_o than_o one_o three_o part_n more_o than_o when_o single_a but_o when_o likewise_o we_o come_v to_o reflect_v what_o great_a quantity_n necessary_o must_v be_v use_v by_o all_o the_o private_a family_n that_o brew_n their_o own_o drink_n together_o with_o the_o yearly_o large_a quantity_n that_o be_v export_v beyond_o the_o sea_n i_o say_v when_o we_o once_o come_v to_o reflect_v on_o the_o several_a way_n that_o necessary_o must_v be_v of_o the_o consumption_n of_o that_o sort_n of_o grain_n together_o with_o these_o visible_a advantage_n that_o this_o will_v be_v manage_v with_o less_o than_o one_o three_o part_n of_o the_o charge_n that_o the_o other_o be_v the_o prevention_n of_o the_o brewer_n fraud_n and_o the_o money_n all_o bring_v into_o the_o exchequer_n in_o seven_o month_n when_o i_o come_v and_o tell_v you_o likewise_o that_o the_o fraud_n of_o brewer_n together_o with_o the_o many_o bad_a debt_n the_o victualler_n and_o kettle_n brewer_n do_v make_v and_o unavoidable_a too_o will_n in_o all_o probability_n amount_v with_o the_o two_o three_o save_v in_o the_o difference_n of_o management_n to_o at_o least_o 220000_o l._n per_fw-la annum_fw-la which_o bad_a debt_n can_v be_v suppose_v to_o be_v contract_v with_o the_o maltster_n who_o as_o be_v hint_v before_o be_v all_o rich_a man_n which_o i_o hope_v i_o have_v sufficient_o prove_v in_o my_o proposal_n now_o before_o the_o right_n honourable_a the_o lord_n commissioner_n of_o his_o majesty_n treasury_n entitle_v proposal_n for_o the_o better_a management_n of_o the_o brewery_a there_o need_v nothing_o more_o in_o my_o humble_a opinion_n to_o induce_v a_o compliance_n with_o such_o a_o proposal_n however_o to_o give_v it_o yet_o a_o great_a credit_n let_v we_o but_o look_v what_o effect_n the_o coffee-berry_n have_v have_v which_o will_v appear_v visible_a to_o any_o capacity_n compare_v the_o one_o with_o the_o other_o to_o be_v a_o very_a parallel_n case_n nay_o even_o in_o this_o that_o the_o coffeehouse_n contract_v a_o great_a many_o bad_a debt_n that_o be_v not_o yet_o and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v never_o will_v be_v pay_v now_o upon_o the_o berry_n quite_o the_o contrary_a i_o think_v no_o person_n a_o stranger_n to_o the_o effect_n of_o that_o act_n especial_o not_o any_o of_o the_o honourable_a house_n of_o commons_o to_o who_o this_o be_v chief_o intend_v because_o there_o scarce_o ever_o yet_o be_v any_o thing_n of_o this_o kind_n that_o have_v not_o its_o enemy_n though_o it_o be_v but_o for_o argument_n sake_n over_o a_o dish_n of_o coffee_n in_o a_o coffeehouse_n therefore_o i_o can_v hope_v this_o shall_v escape_v be_v it_o much_o better_a than_o what_o it_o be_v i_o take_v the_o liberty_n of_o lay_v down_o what_o i_o humble_o conceive_v be_v the_o most_o material_a or_o probable_a objection_n that_o can_v be_v make_v to_o it_o the_o enemy_n of_o this_o proposal_n will_v be_v apt_a to_o make_v these_o three_o follow_a objection_n which_o according_a to_o my_o apprehension_n be_v all_o the_o thing_n can_v be_v suppose_v to_o bear_v objection_n i._n it_o be_v not_o so_o equal_a as_o the_o proposer_n will_v have_v the_o world_n believe_v by_o reason_n the_o tax_n will_v fall_v entire_o upon_o one_o sort_n of_o grain_n and_o consequent_o upon_o one_o sort_n of_o land_n that_o bear_v such_o grain_n to_o which_o i_o make_v answer_n the_o difference_n of_o affect_v the_o land_n or_o grain_n more_o by_o this_o duty_n than_o it_o be_v affect_v by_o that_o of_o the_o excise_n on_o beer_n and_o ale_n be_v only_o it_o pay_v the_o duty_n in_o one_o when_o malt_n in_o the_o other_o when_o that_o very_a malt_n be_v make_v into_o drink_n and_o malt_n be_v of_o little_a or_o no_o other_o use_n or_o at_o least_o it_o be_v not_o put_v to_o any_o other_o than_o the_o make_n of_o drink_n in_o this_o nation_n beside_o there_o be_v this_o general_a argument_n to_o back_o it_o that_o the_o seller_n always_o command_v the_o buyer_n consequently_n the_o farmer_n and_o maltster_n will_v get_v more_o than_o now_o they_o do_v and_o this_o encouragement_n give_v to_o other_o people_n as_o well_o as_o the_o brewer_n of_o have_v their_o drink_n cheaper_o than_o now_o they_o have_v as_o i_o hope_v i_o have_v already_o before_o make_v it_o plain_o appear_v and_o the_o brewer_n to_o have_v the_o visible_a encouragement_n of_o 5_o s._n per_fw-la quarter_n i_o say_v both_o these_o must_v necessary_o cause_v the_o great_a consumption_n of_o that_o sort_n of_o grain_n it_o be_v to_o be_v hope_v from_o these_o consideration_n that_o malt_n will_v be_v one_o of_o the_o chief_a and_o most_o advantageous_a grain_n the_o farmer_n will_v employ_v themselves_o in_o consequently_n that_o sort_n of_o land_n will_v bear_v to_o the_o landlord_n a_o great_a price_n objection_n ii_o that_o private_a family_n and_o those_o stranger_n that_o carry_v this_o sort_n of_o grain_n beyond_o the_o sea_n will_v be_v subject_a to_o a_o duty_n in_o this_o that_o be_v not_o by_o that_o of_o the_o excise_n on_o beer_n and_o ale_n to_o which_o i_o make_v this_o answer_n i_o hope_v i_o have_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o private_a family_n will_v rather_o be_v gainer_n especial_o all_o those_o that_o buy_v their_o drink_n from_o the_o common_a brewer_n and_o those_o that_o do_v not_o the_o difference_n so_o little_a i_o believe_v will_n according_a to_o what_o i_o have_v hint_v of_o this_o matter_n before_o be_v scare_v discernible_a unless_o it_o be_v to_o some_o few_o that_o can_v have_v the_o conveniency_n of_o a_o common_a brewhouse_n to_o supply_v they_o and_o as_o for_o what_o corn_n be_v export_v beyond_o the_o sea_n i_o must_v own_v it_o will_v entire_o fall_v upon_o they_o but_o in_o a_o thing_n of_o this_o nature_n it_o can_v be_v expect_v a_o shoe_n shall_v be_v make_v that_o can_v fit_v every_o person_n be_v foot_n but_o in_o my_o humble_a opinion_n if_o a_o shoe_n be_v make_v that_o fit_v the_o generality_n of_o mankind_n it_o be_v sufficient_a objection_n iii_o how_o the_o present_a engagement_n on_o the_o revenue_n of_o excise_n on_o beer_n and_o ale_n can_v be_v transfer_v on_o malt_n to_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o the_o king_n and_o subject_a which_o in_o truth_n be_v rather_o a_o question_n and_o the_o lawyer_n be_v the_o fit_a person_n to_o reconcile_v that_o however_o i_o beg_v leave_v humble_o to_o offer_v something_o on_o the_o king_n behalf_n that_o his_o subject_n security_n on_o this_o of_o malt_n will_v be_v much_o great_a and_o the_o duty_n much_o quick_a bring_v into_o the_o exchequer_n though_o they_o will_v not_o have_v the_o same_o security_n for_o their_o money_n as_o they_o have_v when_o they_o lend_v their_o money_n yet_o if_o they_o have_v
