This institution began 1694, in the reign of William and Mary, in the following manner: "An act for granting to their majesties, several rates and duties upon tonnage of ships and vessels, and upon beer, ale, and other liquors, for securing recompences and advantages in the said act mentioned, to such persons as shall voluntarily advance, toward carrying on the war against France, the sum of fifteen hundred thousand pounds." From this beginning, (their affairs being first carried on in Grocers' Hall,) small as it now seems, may be dated the present debt of more than £800,000,000, which is the cause of the present enormous amount of taxation to pay the interest, and the consequent misery attendant thereon, and the emigration of those that are capable to escape from it: who bid "England adieu! the soil that brought me forth, Adieu unkind! where skill is nothing worth." At King William's death, the amount of the national debt (or general mortgage, as it was then very frankly and appropriately called,) had increased to £16,394,702. At the death of Queen Anne, his successor, wen-like, it had swelled to £52,145,363. This was the amount, when the Brunswick family succeeded to the throne. This institution has subverted one of the crown's most important prerogatives, the coining of money; which agrees with. the maxim of the Gospel, the superscription should be that of those who issue it. Indeed, without a uniformity in money, and also of the weights and measures, how can the social system move steadily along? But this institution necessarily introduced paper money, with all the evils of the numerous fluctuations attending it. The table No 3, page 326, shows that various monarchs had been treasonably guilty of mischievous tampering with the coinage, yet nothing in former reigns equal to what has since been done by paper money. This institution covers an area of eight acres. The first architect was Sampson, who began it about 1736, but it has been much altered, embellished, and improved, by Soane; in every department, the greatest skill, talent, and art, have been called into requisition; there is a time-piece, showing the time simultaneously in sixteen rooms, the connexion is kept up with brass rods. So numerous are the clerks and other attendants, that during the last wars, when one pound notes were in circulation, (which, when once paid back, are never reissued,) they had a corps of volunteers, according to the muster-roll, numbering 1000 rank and file; they had not a very martial |
