Seintpoole and M r Serjeant Fleetwood Comptroller argued to the contrary and said that in all these cases new are to be chosen and the old discharged And that it needeth not to have discharge by the Judgment of the House but it sufficeth to make suggestion in the Chancery and to procure a Writ thereupon for a new Election And to question this was to discredit the Lord ly to bee paid at sight at vsance at halfe vsance and at double vsance which word vsance being not English I take to be borrowed of the Italian word vsanza signifying a manner or custome The word at sight imports present payment at halfe vsance a fortnight after the date at vsance a moneth at double vsance two moneths And thus to him that goes from London to Hamburg in Germany it is all one whether his bill of exchange be paid at sight or at halfe vsance since hce can hardly arriue there in lesse space then a fortnight But touching the exchange from London to Venice farther distant by the word vsance three moneths are signified and by double vsance six moneths The Turks Empier is so farre distant and the iourney sare so vncertaine as our Merchants vse no certaine rate of exchange thither neither indeed vse they to giue any billes of exchange but onely letters of credit to receiue set summes of money or at large as much as the traueller shall want of which third kinde of receiuing money in forraine parts I shall hereafter speake By the foresaid billes of exchange according to the foresaid opportunities the traueller commonly loseth and sometimes gaineth For my self am familiarly acquainted with a Merchant who tooke vp one hundred pounds at London to be paid by his Factor at Stode in Germany which Factor againe tooke vp the same hundred pounds at Stode to be paid by his Master at London and at foure moneths end he paied the same hauing by these bils of exchange made vse thereof all this time without one penny losse But in generall when great quantitie of money is to bee made ouer to any place from London the traueller shall lose after fiue in the hundred by the yeere and when small quantitie is to bee made ouer he shall lose after the rate of fifteene in the hundred by the yeere and ordinarily he shall lose about the rate of ten in the hundred by the yeere By reason of the aforesaid vncertaintie in receiuing money by billes of exchange as well by the slow sending of them as by the delay which Factors vse to make in paying them as also by the vsuall negligence of the trauellers friend who is to make ouer his mony or by his want of ready mony at the time I say for this vncertaintie lest the traueller should lose the season of the yeere fit to take iourneys by the expecting of his mony a third course of receiuing mony in forraine parts hath growne in vse namely that the traueller should take with him letters of credit from some Merchant of great trade to his Factor to furnish him from place to place of money either according to his want or for a certaine yeerely summe I confesse it is a more frugall course that he should first pay his money at home and after receiue it beyond the Seas then that he should first receiue it there and after repay it at home but I would aduise him to make ouer his money after the foresaid manner by billes of Exchange and withall to carry these letters of credit for abundant caution of all euents so as vpon any crosse accident he may rather incurre a small losse of money then the vnrecouerable losse of time Yet euen in money taken by letters of credit reckoning the time of the repaiment Merchants vse not to exact greater gaine then ten in the hundreth by the yeere especially if they be honest men or haue any bond of friendship with the traueller or his friends at home and be confident of repaiment without any doubt arising either by the trauellers sicknesse or by his friends ill keeping of their credit It remaines that I adde somewhat in generall out of my experience of the rate at which my selfe receiued money by the foresaid bils of exchange or letters of credit And first I will confesse my negligent omission in noting the rates of my exchanges whereof as a matter of moment I much repent me but for this reason the Reader must beare with me if I set the same downe more briefly then were fit for his instruction Our of England into Scotland and Ireland a Traueller shall haue many opportunities to carry monies Inspecie that is in kind or to exchange them without any losse The exchange out of England to Stoade or Hamburge in Germany vseth to beare this rate for a pound or twenty shillings sterling to receiue there fiue and twenty Hamburge shillings and sixe pence My selfe deliuered forty pounds in England and after the rate of twenty foure Hamburg shillings and eight pence for each English pound or at the rate of an imperiall doller vallued at foure shillings six pence English I receiued at Stoade forty nine Hamburg pounds six shillings and eight pence Hereof I kept in my purse ten dollers that is two Hamburg pounds and fifteene shillings the rest I left in a Merchants hands who sent me at diuers times to Leipzig first nine and thirty dollers that is ten Hamburg pounds foureteene shillings and six pence at another time threescore dollers that is sixteene Hamburg pounds ten shillings and the third time seuenty dollers that is nineteene Hamburg pounds fiue shillings These ioined together with two shillings paied to the Carrier for my letters make the foresaid summe of forty nine Hamburg pounds sixe shillings eight pence receiued vpon bill of exchange for my forty pound first paid in London Againe I tooke vp an Stode from an English Merchant seuenty dollers vpon my letters of credit and rating each doller at foure shillings eight pence English I gaue him a bill of sixteene pound sterling to be paid him by my friend in London From these parts in Germany a Traueller must carry with him the foresaid kinds of moneyes most currant in Germany when he takes his iourney to the vpper parts of Germany to Bohemia and to Sweitzerland or the confines of Hungary The exchange out of England into the Low-Countries vsually rateth an English pound sterling first paid in England at foure and thirty Flemmish shillings wanting two stiuers to be paid after in the Low-Countries In Denmarke Trauellers seldome make any long aboad and the trade of our Merchants is more rare in that Kingdome wanting natiue commodities so as there is no vsuall exchange from London thither From London to Dantzk in Prussen the exchange of an English pound sterling first paid in London vseth to be rated at foure and twenty Hamburg shillings and six pence to be paid there My selfe by letters of credit received fifty dollers at Dantzk and
