A PROPOSAL for a New Adventure , wherein none can he Unfortunate , greater Allowance being made to the Blanks , than was in the Million Adventure , with the same Security , and Managed by the same Commissioners .

FOur Thousand Lots will be delivered out at 14 l. per Lot , which amounts to 56000 l. to be laid out in Purchasing 8000 Blank Tickets of the Million Adventure , which will raise a Fund of 8000 l. per Annum , for the paying of the several Prizes , Principal and Interest , in the Table hereafter mentioned .

The Prizes are these : Prize . l l. 1 Ticket of 1000 1000 1 500 500 1 40 400 1 300 300 6 200 1200 10 100 1000 180 50 9000 200 33 6600 400 Prizes .   20000 with Interest at 6 l. per Cent . 3600 Blanks .     4000 The odds 9 to 1.    

These Prizes are payable in different Years , but are all to have Interest allowed to them , at the rate of six per Cent . per Annum , from Michaelmas 1695 , to the Year the Lot is payable in .

As for Example . The First Prize is 1000l . payable in the Year 1710. So that whoever Draws that Prize , will have paid him 60l . per Annum for 14 Years , and 1000l . the 15th . Year , which is Michaelmas , 1710. The Second Prize is of 500l . payable in the Year 1709. he who Draws that Prize will receive 30l . per Annum for 13 Years , and 500l . at Michaelmas 1709. which is the 14th . And so in their order all the Prizes Receive Interest at 6l . per Cent . per Annum , till the Year they are paid .

The Blanks , which are 3600 , Receive 7 per Cent . Interest , and their Principal again , and one Drawing shall Determine in what Year both Blanks and Pizes shall be paid .

As for Example , Suppose a Blank Ticket is payable the 12th . Year , Michaelmas 1707 , the Owner of that Ticket shall Receive 1l . per Annum for 11 Years , and 15l . the 12th . Year , which is 7l . per Cent . per Annum , till the time of Payment , and his Principal again . So that this Adventure gives 1 per Cent . more Advantage to the Blanks than the Million Adventure .

The Goldsmiths hereafter named , who are Appointed Receivers of the Money , or Tickets , are to be Trustees and Keepers of the same for the use of the Adventurers , till the Lottery shall be Drawn , and then joyntly with the Managers shall deliver out the Pay Tickets to the several Proprietors , according to their Lots .

The Goldsmiths to give a Receipt to the Adventurers after this manner : I Promise to Return the Bearer hereof Fourteen Pounds , or Two Blank Tickets of the Million Adventure , if this Lottery be not Drawn by the Twentieth Day of June next .

Sir Stephen Evans , Mr. Whitefield Hayter , Sir John Sweetapple , Mr. Ben . Hoskins , Mr. Thomas Williams , Mr. Smith and Mr. Spinks in Lombard-street , Mr. Edward Mompesson in Birchin-lane , Mr. James Hallet , and Mr. Edward Harrison in Cheapside , Mr. Robert Fowles in Fleet-street , Mr. George Hallet , and Mr. Joseph Fells in the Strand , Goldsmiths .

Within Twenty days after the Lottery is Drawn , each Adventurer shall Receive as many Twenty Shilling Tickets of the Million Adventure , Payable at the Exchequer , as shall amount to the Value of their respective Lots , and the Yearly Interest of them .

As for Example : Suppose the Lot Drawn be that of 1000l . payable in the Year 1710 , the Owner shall Receive 60 Twenty Shilling Tickets of the Million Adventure , Payable 1696. 60 Ditto , Payable 1697. And so on for every Year ; and One Thousand Ditto Tickets Payable in the Year 1710. and the like of the rest . So all their Tickets , both for Principal and Interest , will be put into their hands immediately , and the Money to be received at the Exchequer as it grows due .

The whole Money being to be vested in Tickets of the Million Adventure , all Persons who bring in two Tickets of the Million Adventure , shall be accepted at 15 l. the one Pound shall be repaid them by a Ticket of the Million Adventure , payable Michaelmas 1695. So that by this Method every Ticket is as Valuable as 7l . 10 s .

Any Person who has put in Tickets into the Proposals made by Mr. Neale and Mr. Thomas for Exchanging Tickets , shall have two of their Receipts accepted for the said 14l . what Year soever they are , or shall be Drawn for ; and if they are , or shall be Drawn for such Years as makes them more valuable , they shall be accepted for more Money in proportion , for which Instructions shall be left with the Goldsmiths Receivers .

If the whole be not filled by the 20th . of June next , the Adventure shall be exactly proportioned , and it shall be Drawn the same manner as that of the Million Adventure ; of the Method , Time , and Place , Publick Notice shall be given , at least Sixteeen Days before the Drawing .
