rise_v savour_v rank_o of_o malice_n and_o self-interest_n neither_o can_v the_o director_n of_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n be_v take_v by_o any_o intelligent_a man_n to_o be_v such_o patriot_n as_o they_o will_v have_v the_o world_n suppose_v they_o to_o be_v but_o i_o will_v detain_v you_o no_o long_o in_o the_o porch_n but_o proceed_v to_o the_o objection_n make_v against_o the_o gentleman_n that_o propose_v and_o prosecute_v the_o land-bank_n first_o that_o they_o undertake_v the_o raise_v 2564000_o l._n at_o 7_o l._n per_fw-la cent._n perpetual_a interest_n redeemable_a by_o parliament_n second_o that_o contrary_a to_o their_o first_o proposal_n they_o insist_v upon_o a_o extravagant_a premium_fw-la of_o 300000_o l._n three_o that_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o raise_v the_o money_n upon_o the_o premium_fw-la they_o desire_v nor_o can_v give_v any_o security_n to_o do_v it_o four_o that_o they_o ruin_v the_o credit_n of_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n i_o propose_v to_o answer_v these_o objection_n and_o then_o to_o show_v first_o that_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n through_o their_o covetousness_n and_o want_n of_o understanding_n ruin_v their_o own_o credit_n second_o if_o this_o fund_z have_v be_v give_v either_o to_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n or_o the_o exchequer_n alone_o it_o can_v not_o have_v be_v so_o easy_o raise_v as_o by_o a_o land-bank_n three_o that_o there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o restore_v paper-credit_n but_o by_o a_o new_a bank_n the_o first_o objection_n be_v that_o they_o undertake_v the_o raise_n of_o 2564000_o l._n at_o 7_o l._n per_fw-la cent._n perpetual_a interest_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o neither_o the_o gentleman_n concern_v in_o the_o land-bank_n or_o any_o person_n or_o body_n of_o person_n in_o england_n do_v or_o can_v undertake_v so_o great_a a_o sum_n but_o when_o method_n be_v propose_v in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o for_o raise_v this_o money_n they_o offer_v their_o opinion_n that_o it_o may_v be_v raise_v by_o a_o land-bank_n and_o that_o 7_o l._n per_fw-la cent._n be_v sufficient_a encouragement_n as_o the_o treasury_n and_o courtier_n think_v it_o may_v be_v best_o raise_v by_o a_o exchequer-bank_n and_o other_o by_o different_a method_n and_o if_o they_o be_v mistake_v as_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o show_v they_o be_v not_o it_o be_v what_o the_o treasury_n be_v in_o their_o exchequer-bank_n and_o what_o any_o one_o else_o in_o probability_n will_v have_v be_v consider_v the_o different_a circumstance_n of_o the_o kingdom_n when_o the_o proposal_n be_v make_v and_o when_o the_o money_n be_v to_o be_v raise_v second_o objection_n that_o they_o insist_v upon_o a_o extravagant_a premium_fw-la of_o 300000_o l._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v they_o be_v oblige_v to_o it_o 1._o by_o the_o discouragement_n and_o obstruction_n they_o meet_v with_o in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o in_o the_o pass_a their_o bill_n 2._o the_o condition_n of_o the_o kingdom_n in_o relation_n to_o money_n and_o credit_n be_v very_o different_a when_o the_o proposal_n be_v make_v and_o when_o the_o money_n be_v to_o be_v raise_v and_o therefore_o they_o be_v oblige_v to_o enlarge_v their_o demand_n first_o the_o difficulty_n they_o meet_v with_o in_o pass_v their_o bill_n be_v these_o first_o the_o member_n of_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n be_v exclude_v from_o subscribe_v second_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v incorporate_v upon_o a_o less_o sum_n than_o 1282100_o l._n by_o which_o discouragement_n not_o one_o in_o ten_o will_v subscribe_v till_o they_o be_v assure_v of_o be_v a_o corporation_n esteem_v that_o privilege_n to_o be_v half_a their_o bargain_n and_o fear_v the_o subscription_n may_v not_o amount_v to_o that_o sum_n whereas_o if_o the_o subscriber_n have_v be_v qualify_v to_o be_v a_o corporation_n upon_o the_o subscribe_v 500000_o l._n that_o sum_n have_v be_v subscribe_v in_o three_o day_n by_o the_o commissioner_n themselves_o and_o the_o member_n of_o exeter-exchange_n and_o if_o they_o have_v be_v once_o entitle_v to_o a_o corporation_n there_o can_v be_v no_o doubt_n but_o the_o whole_a money_n will_v be_v subscribe_v afterward_o since_o it_o will_v be_v then_o a_o great_a encouragement_n to_o come_v in_o at_o par_n than_o upon_o 20_o per_fw-la cent._n premium_fw-la before_o three_o when_o they_o offer_v a_o clause_n to_o their_o act_n to_o naturalize_v such_o as_o will_v subscribe_v 500_o l._n and_o have_v reasonable_a assurance_n from_o the_o foreigner_n upon_o the_o exchange_n that_o such_o encouragement_n will_v bring_v in_o 400000_o l._n that_o clause_n be_v throw_v out_o the_o stock_n of_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n advance_v and_o their_o wagerer_n upon_o the_o exchange_n offer_v odds_o against_o the_o success_n of_o the_o land_n bank_n four_o their_o bill_n be_v delay_v so_o long_o by_o the_o opposition_n it_o find_v that_o they_o can_v not_o get_v their_o commission_n pass_v before_o the_o four_o of_o may_n by_o which_o mean_v it_o be_v leave_v in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o treasury_n to_o refuse_v or_o take_v the_o four_o part_n of_o their_o subscription_n in_o clip_a money_n which_o be_v a_o particular_a hardship_n upon_o a_o great_a number_n of_o people_n who_o avoid_v put_v in_o their_o clip_a money_n upon_o other_o fund_n in_o hope_n of_o subscribe_v it_o and_o make_v their_o first_o payment_n with_o it_o in_o this_o bank_n and_o reasonable_o hope_v since_o they_o pay_v to_o the_o recompense_n to_o have_v their_o clip_a money_n make_v good_a to_o they_o as_o well_o as_o to_o other_o and_o i_o believe_v it_o have_v be_v every_o one_o observation_n that_o several_a gentleman_n of_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n and_o other_o opposer_n of_o the_o land-bank_n will_v often_o insult_v over_o they_o upon_o their_o success_n in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o and_o ask_v they_o what_o be_v become_v of_o their_o bank_n though_o now_o they_o call_v they_o jacobite_n and_o threaten_v to_o impeach_v they_o for_o not_o do_v what_o they_o themselves_o render_v impossible_a for_o they_o to_o do_v the_o second_o reason_n i_o give_v be_v the_o different_a circumstance_n of_o the_o kingdom_n when_o the_o proposal_n be_v make_v and_o when_o the_o money_n be_v to_o be_v raise_v as_o 1._o guineas_n be_v take_v at_o 30_o s._n and_o it_o be_v not_o know_v whether_o the_o parliament_n will_v bring_v they_o down_o or_o no._n 2._o paper-credit_n be_v good_a and_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n and_o the_o goldsmith_n pay_v their_o bill_n punctual_o whereas_o at_o the_o time_n this_o money_n be_v to_o be_v raise_v both_o refuse_v 3._o tally_n be_v equal_a or_o better_a than_o money_n whereas_o afterward_o they_o be_v 20_o 30_o and_o 40_o per_fw-la cent._n discount_n by_o which_o mean_v people_n can_v make_v a_o much_o great_a advantage_n of_o their_o money_n and_o therefore_o will_v not_o subscribe_v it_o upon_o the_o same_o term_n as_o they_o think_v before_o reasonable_a 4._o it_o be_v hope_v at_o first_o not_o above_o 60_o per_fw-la cent._n will_v be_v call_v in_o whereas_o afterward_o by_o the_o universal_a fall_n of_o credit_n and_o want_v of_o money_n no_o one_o think_v of_o pay_v less_o than_o the_o whole_a sum_n subscribe_v 5._o there_o be_v a_o actual_a want_n of_o money_n in_o specie_fw-la in_o the_o kingdom_n seven_o million_o in_o and_o out_o of_o the_o exchequer_n be_v render_v useless_a by_o which_o mean_v the_o commissioner_n see_v it_o impossible_a to_o get_v the_o money_n subscribe_v and_o pay_v in_o specie_fw-la and_o therefore_o design_v to_o take_v tally_n good_a goldsmith_n bill_n and_o bank_n bill_n and_o clip_v money_n by_o weight_n at_o a_o high_a rate_n for_o subscription_n and_o so_o ask_v 300000_o l._n praemium_fw-la believe_v it_o will_v cost_v they_o full_a as_o much_o to_o discount_n the_o several_a species_n aforesaid_a for_o money_n which_o they_o propose_v to_o pay_v to_o the_o king_n it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v here_o 1._o if_o the_o 300000_o l._n desire_v have_v be_v grant_v to_o the_o land-bank_n their_o bargain_n have_v not_o be_v so_o great_a as_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n for_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n have_v 100000_o l._n per_fw-la ann._n for_o 1200000_o l._n they_o give_v but_o 12_o year_n purchase_n for_o their_o fund_z beside_o they_o have_v allow_v they_o 4000_o l._n per_fw-la ann._n for_o their_o charge_n whereas_o if_o 300000_o l._n have_v be_v deduct_v out_o of_o this_o fund_z the_o remainder_n have_v be_v 2264000_o l._n which_o divide_v by_o 179000_o the_o interest_n they_o be_v to_o receive_v make_v near_o 13_o year_n purchase_n and_o i_o believe_v the_o scarceness_n and_o goodness_n of_o money_n consider_v when_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n be_v raise_v and_o when_o the_o land-bank_n be_v to_o be_v raise_v any_o one_o but_o themselves_o will_v believe_v that_o the_o latter_a deserve_v at_o least_o equal_a encouragement_n and_o it_o be_v
probable_a the_o parliament_n will_v have_v give_v it_o if_o they_o have_v forseen_v the_o difficulty_n that_o have_v since_o happen_v 2._o that_o the_o commissioner_n do_v not_o ask_v the_o 300000_o l._n out_o of_o the_o salt-fund_a but_o upon_o the_o exchequer_n in_o general_n which_o can_v not_o be_v pay_v they_o but_o by_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o parliament_n and_o so_o they_o leave_v themselves_o to_o the_o parliament_n whether_o they_o deserve_v it_o or_o no._n 3._o at_o the_o time_n they_o ask_v those_o tally_n on_o the_o exchequer_n in_o general_n it_o will_v have_v cost_v 40_o l._n per_fw-la cent._n to_o discount_n they_o which_o reduce_v their_o demand_n to_o less_o than_o 200000_o l._n 4._o if_o their_o term_n have_v be_v comply_v with_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o subscription_n will_v have_v be_v make_v in_o clip_a money_n and_o plate_n which_o will_v have_v be_v coin_v to_o increase_v our_o species_n of_o money_n and_o it_o be_v probable_a will_v save_v the_o nation_n next_o year_n near_o as_o much_o in_o the_o recompense_n for_o clip_a money_n and_o encouragement_n for_o bring_v in_o the_o plate_n as_o the_o sum_n demand_v 5._o the_o exchequer_n have_v not_o borrow_v any_o money_n so_o cheap_a since_o the_o three_o objection_n that_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o raise_v the_o money_n upon_o the_o premium_fw-la they_o ask_v nor_o can_v they_o give_v any_o security_n to_o do_v it_o this_o objection_n justify_v they_o in_o ask_v the_o premium_fw-la refuse_v for_o it_o be_v very_o unjust_a to_o tax_v they_o for_o ask_v too_o much_o and_o yet_o to_o confess_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o induce_v people_n to_o subscribe_v the_o money_n however_o i_o offer_v these_o reason_n that_o it_o will_v be_v subscribe_v 1._o they_o propose_v they_o may_v open_v their_o book_n for_o private_a subscription_n not_o doubt_v within_o three_o day_n they_o may_v bring_v hand_n for_o near_a the_o sum_n to_o be_v raise_v which_o be_v not_o think_v fit_a to_o be_v grant_v to_o they_o it_o be_v object_v it_o will_v be_v a_o disencouragement_n to_o the_o real_a subscription_n 2._o when_o they_o be_v send_v for_o to_o attend_v the_o lord_n justice_n and_o be_v ask_v what_o security_n they_o can_v give_v of_o raise_v the_o whole_a sum_n they_o answer_v that_o they_o compute_v the_o commissioner_n themselves_o and_o the_o member_n of_o exeter-exchange_n will_v subscribe_v 700000_o l._n that_o they_o believe_v they_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o bring_v in_o as_o much_o more_o by_o their_o interest_n and_o dequaintance_n and_o they_o think_v it_o reasonable_a to_o suppose_v the_o whole_a kingdom_n will_v subscribe_v the_o rest_n 3._o that_o they_o think_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n will_v admit_v of_o no_o other_o security_n than_o what_o they_o offer_v since_o it_o can_v not_o be_v expect_v that_o any_o number_n of_o person_n will_v enter_v into_o recognizance_n to_o raise_v the_o summ._n 4._o it_o be_v sole_o to_o their_o disadvantage_n if_o they_o do_v not_o subscribe_v to_o be_v a_o corporation_n since_o by_o the_o failure_n they_o will_v only_o entitle_v themselves_o to_o 7_o per_fw-la cent._n in_o the_o exchequer_n which_o no_o one_o will_v give_v 70_o l._n for_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v to_o be_v presume_v they_o will_v take_v such_o care_n for_o their_o own_o sake_n as_o not_o to_o lose_v 30_o per_fw-la cent._n of_o their_o money_n which_o if_o they_o do_v not_o it_o will_v sole_o redound_v to_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o projector_n of_o the_o exchequer-bank_n who_o will_v have_v the_o money_n that_o be_v subscribe_v to_o circulate_v their_o own_o bill_n 5._o when_o they_o become_v a_o corporation_n it_o can_v be_v doubt_v but_o the_o whole_a money_n will_v be_v quick_o subscribe_v since_o then_o the_o advantage_n of_o subscribe_v will_v be_v much_o great_a as_o i_o say_v before_o and_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o commissioner_n to_o hinder_v any_o one_o from_o subscribe_v that_o thought_n it_o his_o interest_n but_o admit_v the_o subscription_n will_v have_v stop_v when_o they_o be_v qualify_v to_o be_v a_o corporation_n i_o believe_v most_o people_n be_v of_o opinion_n now_o that_o 1282000_o l._n will_v better_a serve_v his_o majesty_n occasion_n than_o nothing_o though_o the_o arithmetic_n of_o that_o time_n be_v that_o half_o be_v less_o than_o none_o the_o four_o objection_n be_v that_o they_o ruine_v the_o credit_n of_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n and_o here_o these_o worthy_a patriot_n make_v bold_a with_o the_o parliament_n and_o say_v they_o break_v their_o faith_n with_o they_o in_o set_v up_o another_o bank_n i_o answer_v 1._o there_o be_v no_o word_n in_o the_o act_n of_o parliament_n that_o direct_o or_o indirect_o exclude_v the_o parliament_n from_o set_v up_o another_o bank_n the_o act_n only_o incorporate_v a_o body_n of_o man_n to_o sue_v and_o be_v sue_v which_o if_o it_o shall_v amount_v to_o a_o prohibitory_a clause_n exclude_v king_n and_o parliament_n ever_o hereafter_o to_o grant_v a_o corporation_n since_o every_o corporation_n single_a person_n or_o number_n of_o person_n in_o england_n may_v lawful_o do_v what_o these_o gentleman_n pretend_v to_o have_v the_o monopoly_n of_o 2._o the_o land-bank_n be_v exclude_v from_o discount_v bill_n of_o exchange_n lend_v money_n upon_o pawn_n deal_v in_o bullion_n etc._n etc._n and_o every_o thing_n else_o but_o lend_v upon_o land_n and_o to_o the_o government_n and_o therefore_o can_v possible_o be_v no_o disadvantage_n to_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n who_o do_v not_o pretend_v to_o lend_v upon_o land_n 3._o if_o the_o other_o bank_n have_v take_v effect_n it_o be_v probable_a the_o bank_n of_o england_n will_v have_v have_v more_o cash_n leave_v with_o they_o than_o before_o since_o it_o will_v have_v be_v the_o interest_n of_o both_o bank_n to_o have_v agree_v and_o then_o without_o doubt_n they_o may_v have_v divide_v the_o goldsmith_n profit_n between_o they_o and_o so_o each_o bank_n have_v more_o deposits_n than_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n have_v before_o 4._o if_o the_o set_n up_o a_o land-bank_n will_v be_v a_o disadvantage_n to_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n it_o be_v no_o injustice_n to_o establish_v they_o since_o the_o parliament_n give_v no_o warrant_n to_o the_o contrary_a and_o their_o bargain_n be_v great_a enough_o notwithstanding_o and_o great_a than_o they_o think_v be_v fit_a to_o be_v grant_v to_o the_o land-bank_n who_o be_v to_o raise_v more_o than_o double_a the_o sum_n in_o less_o time_n when_o the_o difficulty_n be_v great_a and_o the_o coin_n better_o they_o have_v but_o 7_o l._n per_fw-la cent._n exclude_v from_o many_o advantage_n the_o bank_n of_o england_n have_v and_o be_v

demand_n upon_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n it_o be_v cause_v by_o the_o unreasonable_a opposition_n they_o give_v to_o it_o which_o fail_v of_o the_o effect_v they_o propose_v give_v they_o that_o

seem_v to_o wind_v up_o their_o whole_a happiness_n in_o defeat_v the_o land-bank_n and_o miscarry_v it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v wonder_v if_o other_o people_n think_v their_o condition_n to_o be_v worse_o than_o it_o be_v that_o the_o covetousness_n and_o want_n of_o understanding_n of_o the_o bank_n of_o england_n be_v the_o occasion_n of_o their_o loss_n of_o credit_n to_o prove_v which_o i_o
