4. The frequent Rises and Falls of Money beyond Sea, will be no longer an effectual trick to cheat us, as it hath hitherto been.
5. If it should after all be exported, it will be 20 l. per Cent. more to the Exporters loss, than if it had a full Intrinsick Value.
6. That 20 l. per Cent. which the Exporters lose, will be gain’d by the Government; because for what is exported, no Interest will be paid, nor no Principal at the end of the War.
7. The Coin’d Silver of the whole Nation, may in times of Peace be reduced to the old Standard, and Intrinsick Value, without recoining or altering the Species.
8. Those who hide and hoard up their Money, to defeat the Intents of a Tax upon it, will be disappointed of their Ends, and become greater Losers than by producing it; whereby Money may be affected by Taxes, which now cannot so easily be done.
9. All the Benefits and Advantages which can be proposed by a raising of the extrinsick and denominated Value of Money, will be hereby secured, and all the Inconveniencies of that Method obviated.
10. All the Advantages which can be proposed to the Publick by Coining after the old Standard, will hereby be effected, at a very inconsiderable present Expence, and no more than one Million at the end of the War.
11. Guineas will hereby fall in their Estimation, by an easie, natural, and gradual Abatement.
12. The Plenty of Money will be much greater, the Intrinsick Value more, and the Certainty of what a Man takes clearer than is at present.
And the real Value of our Coin, as great as ever, to all Intents and Purposes, but of Exporting, Melting-down, and Hiding.
