     summary: If we have a Sufficiency of these Bills in Our Counting-houses , Pocket books , or Letter-cases , uncounterfeitable , made Current ( as Moneys ) by Act of Parliament : which will answer all our occasions at home , as well as moneys in specie ; and particularly may as well be disposed forth at Interest on Bonds , as Ready-money in Baggs : And consequently we become as rich in these , for all Uses to which we would employ moneys , as now we are ; yea , and much more : Where then Lyes the Force of this Objection ? In short , the whole Nation is almost destitute of Moneys : Not only , For the carrying on the War ( in , or by any Ordinary course of procedure ) but , For Our home Markets : And , Taken off from trade abroad , As , by means hereof , So , Partly by their Losses at Sea ; partly , By the More-advantageous Proposals for Lending or Laying out their Moneys , on the Lotteries , and Other Ways and Means found out , and pitch'd upon , by the Late Parliament , For carrying on the War : And lastly , By the high Exchange of Moneys abroad , for Commodities imported hither ; and paying our Forces there , who must otherwise have had more of our Moneys sent hence to our further streightening .

     summary: But it may be said , That this Landlord or Money'd Man , must be suppos'd to have Money by him when this change of Coin happens , which will be ⅕ more , as if he had 1500 l. of the Old Money , it would be 1800 l. of the New , which is 300 l. gain to him . 3. All Creditors whose Debts were contracted before the rise of Coin , and not paid till afterward , must lose , because the Debt was contracted before the rise of things , and according to the value of Money then ; but now Money is raised and Commodities likewise , this ( when paid the Creditor in the New Money ) will not purchase so much by ⅕ as if it had been paid him before this Revolution of Coin ; besides , had the Debt been in the Creditors hands before the alteration of Coin , it would of it self encreased ⅕ , which he also loseth .
