Metallica OR The Treatise of Metallica Briefly comprehending the Doctrine of diuerse new Metallicall Inuentions but especially how to neale melt and worke all kinde of mettle-oares Irons and Steeles with Sea-coale Pit-coale Earth-coale and Brush-fewell Also a Transcript of his Maiesties Letters Pattents of Priuiledge granted vnto Simon Sturteuant for the said Metallicall businesses for one and thirty yeares Published in Print before the last day of this present Easter Terme as the said Simon Sturteuant was by his Highnesse inioyned Imprinted at London by George Eld. Cum priuilegio Anno. 1612. May. 22. The Preface to the Reader GEntle Reader I am not ignorant how they that are willing to apprehend and assist new businesses are desirous to be satisfied in these points First concerning the perfect and exact knowledge of that Inuention wherein they are to deale and negotiate for as the common Prouerbe saith Ignoti nulla cupido The second is touching the worth and goodnesse of the businesse and how the benefit thereof may bee raised The third is the habillity of the Inuentioner to effect and performe his proiect propounded The fourth is concerning the manner of contracting or bargaining In all which I will endeauour to giue the best satisfaction that I may out of the praecepts and grounds of this present Treatise of Metallica And therefore concerning the first point The Transcript of his Maiesties most gratious grant and priuiledge doth euidently shew and informe the Reader that amongst many other inuentions granted for one and thirty yeares my Selfe my Executors Deputies and Assignes may onely make practise and put in vse within any of his Maiesties Realmes and Dominions the working melting and effecting of Iron Steele and other Mettles with Sea-coale or Pit-coale The principall end of which inuention is that the Woods and Timber of our country might be saued maintained and preserued from the great consumption and waste of our common Furnaces and Iron-Milnes which as they are now ordinarily built and framed can burne spend and consume no other fewell but Char coale The which deuise if it may bee effected accordingly as I make no doubt but by Gods blessing I shall will prooue to bee the best and most profitable businesse and Inuention that euer was knowne or inuented in England these many yeares For to speake nothing of the great benefit and profit which may bee raised and made by twenty other Inuentions comprised and comprehended vnder the Pattent the yearly vallew of this mettle-businesse alone will amount vnto 330. thousand pounds per annū after the second or third yeare as appeareth by this calculation A Calculation shewing how the Mettle Inuention or Art which maketh all kinde of Mettles or Metalique substance with Pit-coale or Sea-coale will bee worth per annum 330. thousand pounds immediatly after the two first yeares which are the allotted times for Tryalls and Conformities without any charges except the charges of Tryalls to the Pattentees Partners Assistants and Dealers THere are planted already in England and Wales eight hundred Milnes for the making of Iron for there are foure hundred Milnes in Surry Kent Sussex as the townesmen of Haslemore haue testified and numbred vnto mee there are also 200. Milnes in Wales and 20. in Nottinghamshire as the Author hath beene credibly informed Now wee may well suppose that all England Scotland and Ireland besides the forenamed shires will make vp the number of 180. Milnes more being in all 800. Milnes Moreouer one Milne alone spendeth yearly in Charcoale 500. pound and more as diuerse Clarkes and workmen in Iron businesse haue credibly testified which in pit-coale will be done with the charges of 30. or 40. pounds after the Inuentioners manner and inuention or at the most with 50. pound where carriage is farre and chargeable So that this new Inuention in the 800. Iron milnes will saue and gaine de claro the owners of those milnes 320. thousand pounds yearly ouer and aboue their ordinary and annuall gaines as it appeareth by this proportion One Milne alone saueth yearely 400. li. Ergo 800. Milnes saue yearly 320. thousand pounds Againe the said Metalique inuention beeing put and conuerted to Lead Tinne Copper Brasse and Glasse-mettle in all the seuerall Mineralls of England Scotland Ireland and Wales will questionlesse cleare yearely by meanes of Fewell aboue ten thousand pounds more ouer and besides the ordinary gaines in the said businesse So that the yearely Iron reuenues added vnto these other Metalique reuenues doe amount vnto 330. thousand pounds as was said before Now out of these Metalique gaines of 330. thousand pounds yearely the owners of the Milnes Hearths and Furnaces may haue and receiue liberall rates and proportions allowed and allotted vnto them ouer and besides their ordinary gaines onely in lieu of conforming their Furnaces Fineries and Chafferies to this Inuention of Pitt-coale and Earth-coale And also the Kings most excellent Maiestie the Prince his Highnesse the Duke of Yorke the Lord Vicount Rotchester and other parties interressed in the Pattent may by their Composition and agreement with the said Owners and Iron-Maisters yearely receiue by way of rents and licences the residew of that gaines which remaineth ouer and aboue that which was allotted and allowed to the Iron-Maisters for applying of this Inuention to their ordinary way of making of Iron as more fully shall bee specified shewed and prooued in the Apendix of this Treatise which I am now preparing for the Printer and the Presse with all conuenient speed This may suffice therefore to giue the Reader satisfaction concerning the two first points for the knowledge and the worth of the businesses and concerning the manner how certaine yearly annuities may bee raised to the dealers and assistants Now to perswade the third point that the Authour is able to effect the worke vndertaken in as ample manner as hee propoundeth wee plead and alledge as followeth First the Inuentioner by his study industrie and practise hath already brought to passe and published diuerse proiects and new deuises aswell Litterall as Mechannicall very beneficiall to the common-wealth His Literare Inuentions doe appeare and are knowne partly by his Printed Treatise of Dibere Adam which is a Scholasticall engin Aucomaton and partly in diuerse other Manuscripts which he hath to shew His new Mechanicks already performed are to bee seene in the Inuentions which hee calleth by the names of Presse-wares Wood-pleits Ballance Engin Baramyha and Hubla of all which in priuate speech hee is ready more largely to conferre and to manifest their truth and goodnesse at his Worke-houses at Islington and Highbury To conclude 1. Sam. 17.34 Thus Dauid reasoneth from the Beare and Lyon to Golyah the Gyant therefore he doubteth not but by Gods blessing assistance semblably with successe to effect his Inuention of Iron-works as also al his other Metallique deuises and Inuentions heere contained in the Patent or Priuiledge of Metallica Secondly the consideration of thinges in the
selfe same things which are meant by instruments and meanes but yet in diuers and different respects for they are called parts and adiuncts in respect that the Mechanick Engin subsisteth consisteth of them but in respect of the Emporeutick which is made by them the said partes and adiuncts are fitly called Instruments and meanes So a printing Presse hath his seuerall parts whervpon it doth consist as the screw the nut the pare-tree and the chase c. it hath also his adiuncts belonging to it as the Inck and the Inck-bals c. which said parts and adiuncts of the Presse considered with the printed papers bookes and impressions which are the saleable Emporeutick workes I say in this respect they are called Instruments and meanes whereby printed Bookes are atteined vnto R 72. Define a practick of an Inuention A The practick of an Inuention is that which is made in reall parts and adiunct according to the description of the Theorick of an inuention So if you describe an Iron furnace by euery part and adiunct which belongeth therunto such a discription is called the Theorick of a Furnace but afterward if you make a real Furnace either of moddle stuffe or of brick clay or earth according to the description Theorick proportions then such a Furnace is called the practick of a Furnace the like may be said of any other Mechanick or Engin. R. 73. What cannons haue you of an inuention in respect of the Theorick A. The Theorick of an Inuention is to be described by his parts and adiuncts that other mens labours and indeauors bee incroached vppon or forestalled thereby CAP. 11. An Inuention triable and vntriable conformable and inconformable Royall and Coppy-hold R. 74 WHat other kindes or sorts haue you of an Inuention A. An Inuention is two fould An Inuention of discouery or an inuention of experiment or an Inuention is triable or vntriable R. 75. What call you a triable Inuention A. A triable Iuuention is an inuention whose worth and goodnesse cannot certainly appeare before trialls and experiments be made not only in the moddles thereof but also in the Protop last it selfe Of this sort are all the Inuentions Metallicall comprised in the Patent and also the Inuention called the Register for generall commerce R. 76. Define an inuention vntriable A. An vntryable inuention is a new proiect or discouery whose worth and goodnesse requireth no tryals but may bee iudged and discerned onely by the discription or declaration of the plot and proiect Of this sort are all Monopolies new customes imposts taxations subsidies statutes with fines and diuers other state businesses discoueries and inuentions which are ordinarily propounded or petitioned of his Maiestie Of this sort is Sepherica a late inuention of the Authours the proiect and contents whereof shall be handled in a treatise called Sepherica R. 77. How many sorts of tryable inuentions are there A. An inuention tryable is either conformeable or inconformeable R. 78. Define a conformeable inuention A. A conformeable inuention is an inuention tryable which reformeth and bettereth a former inuention requiring but some small and not chargeable alteration after that the new is vnited to the ould So the Iron furnaces fineries and chafferies may be much reformed and bettered with small charges hauing our Ferricall inuention vnited to them and therefore the Ferricall inuention is fitly called a conformeable inuention R. 79. What Cannons or rules haue you for a conformeable inuention A. Conformeable inuention being priueledged is farre more beneficiall and commodious to the Pattentees the dealers in that busines thē an inconformable inuention and the reason is because that imediatly after the grand tryals are brought to passe and performed in the Protoplast they may choose whether they will be at any further charge and yet they may raise present rent and benefit by conforming of the former inuentions to the Protoplast and not at theirs but onely at the charges of the owners of former works and inuentions R. 80. Define an inconformable inuention A. An inuention is said to be inconformable whose Protoplast being erected and set vp cannot be conformed to any former inuention in vse where by yearely profits of conformity may be raised without charges to the Pattentees and dealers So the presseware inuention maketh tiles and brickes and all other clayworks after a farre more gainefull and beneficiall manner then by the ordinary course yet neuerthelesse it is an inconformable inuention because that the ordinary Arts of tilemaking and brick-making cannot bee conformed vnto the Presse-ware Protoplast with some small alterations and small charges R. 81. What Cannons or Rules haue you of an inconformable inuention A. An inconformable inuention requireth a great stocke and great disbursements for the Pattentees to lay out aswell for the Protaplest as also for some two or three grander Mechanicks thereof Secondly an inconformable inuention after the erection and perfection of the Protoplast in continewance of time may raise great rents and fines by licences leases and deuises though no by present conformity R. 82. What other distribution haue you for an inuention Mechanicke A. An inuention Mechanicke is either priuiledged or vnpriuiledged againe it is either a royaltie or a coppy-hould A royaltie is such a new businesse which in regard of the greatnesse thereof belongeth peculiarly to the King Or a royaltie is an inuention Mechanicke which produceth extraordinarie and worthie yearely profits and reuenewes whose valuation exceedeth the summe of ten thousand pounds per annum R. 83. Define a coppy-hould inuention A. A Coppy-hould is an inuention whose yearely valuation and worth exceedeth not the summe of ten thousand pounds per annum 84. What cannons or rules haue you concerning royall or coppy-hould Inuentions A. These Cannons belong to a Royall Inuention first no subiect or subiects of what estate or degree soeuer by his seruice or demerit except the Queene mother the Kings children is capeable of a whole entire royaltie and therefore if the King haue passed away way a royaltie ignorantly he may iustly recall and reuoke his graunt Secondly a subiect may by his seruice to his Prince and Country demerit part or portion of a royaltie it being no greater then a Coppy-hould R. 85. What Cannons or Rules belong to a Mechanicke in respect of priuiledge or impriueledge A. First it is most reasonable and fitting that a Mechanicke inuention should be priueledged for a certaine time wholly to the Inuentioner Authour if so be it be but of the yearely valew of a Coppy-hould Secondly the first Inuentor of a Royaltie though of meane degree hath as great demerit in the inuention as any other subiect of what estate or degree soeuer excepting Royall persons R. 86. What Cannons or rules haue you concerning Royalties A. There are diuers other rules and obseruations which I spare to speake of at this time because at further leasure I purpose to Print a little Tractate of Royalties and coppy-houlds which is a parcel
