they are weary; for we shall gain considerably by them at this Rate, as we do also in the way of Trade; which the Dutch are not so blind (what∣ever the Irish are) but they will soon perceive, and value our Guinea's no higher, if so high as we do.
But, if every body were on my mind, un∣less these Bankers could make it appear by their Books, and their own Oaths, that they cannot make their Payments, I would quickly make them tir'd with the Trade of Cheating; for if a Man has receiv d a Sum of Money of another, for which he has given his Note to repay at demand, I think 't is but reasonable, that if this Demand is made, and the Money is not paid, the Len∣der should have the Improvement of that Money from the time such Demand is made▪ and I doubt not but a Court of Equity wou'd give it, and which if duly prosecuted, would soon make these Sparks weary of their Trade of Cheating, in hin∣dering what they can the Current Money 〈◊〉〈◊〉 to the destruction of Commerce, and ruine of this Rich and Flourishing Island. So that upon the whole, I humbly conceive, That the readiest way to have plenty of good Money current, is ei∣ther totally to put down the Bankers Trade, or to abridge them of that Power which they knavishly make use of, to the great detriment of the Nati∣on; but on the other hand▪ if Rounds were set to the practice of Bankers, and 〈◊〉〈◊〉 made more effectually, to prevent Melting down, Exporting and Counterfeiting our Coin, we should in a short time, notwithstanding the War, and ma∣lice of our Enemies, be one of the happiest Na∣tions the Sun sees.
