V. The Intrest to be paid every Month , if requir'd .

VI . If this Engin were to be worked but two days in a Week , it would bring in Forty per Cent . Intrest , and should it be worked every day ( which is not at all unlikely ) it would bring in Cent. per Cent .

VII . In case of the Death of the Undertaker , the Mony to be return'd within one Month after , if requir'd .

And to answer all Objections that may arise , about the safety of their Mony in his Hands , he desires all that have a mind to be concern'd , to Inquire of his Substance , Trade and Reputation , and to consider the Six following Particulars , viz.

And for the better Managment and Improvement of this Undertaking , any Gentleman , or other Person of good repute , who shall be approv'd of , and is willing to give the best consideration , may come in as Partner ; which will tend very much to his advantage , and may be manag'd by himself , or any of his Friends , or Relations , whom he shall thinkfit to appoint : And for his further satisfaction , he shall be instructed , how to manage the Trade , and set the Engin to work , as well as the Projecter himself : And after his Death , the Engin and all the Appurtenances belonging to it shall be made over to him , as his own .

And in case he dye before the Projecter , then his next Heir to be admitted as Partner , or to recal the Stock that was put in by him , and to have the consideration he gave to come in , return'd , or have the liberty to make the best of it , to any other Person , who shall be approv'd of .

So that it will be a good Income to him and his Heirs ; for the Engin with a very little repair may last one Hundred Years , though continually used .

This Engin will deliver Thirty thousand Chaldrons of Coals in a Year , for Three hundred pounds Charge ; which were they to be Loaded in Lighters , and Carryed by Porters , would Cost Three thousand pounds .

But it may be Objected , that no Man can dispose of so great a Quantity ; to which Objection Answer is made , that it is but a small Quantity to what is consumed in this City and Suburbs : For it is computed , that Ten hundred thousand Chaldrons of Coals are yearly Imported into the River of Thames ; there being many Brewers and Glass-houses that use Eight hundred , or a Thousand Chaldrons every Year .

Now to the answering all Objections that can be brought , the first and main Objection will be this . What Assurance can there be of gaining so many Customers , as will Imploy the Engin all the Year round ? The 2d Objection may be , How can Ten pence be given in every Chaldron of Coals that is Landed by this Engin ? The 3d Objection may be , What Profit will there be to him that comes in as Partner ? These Objections may easily be answered ; for by the use of this Engin , the Projecter delivers his Coals one Shilling and ten pence in every Chaldron , cheaper than he formerly could do ; besides the conveniency of seeing them Measur'd , and buying them cheaper , by reason of the quick Dispatch .

For if a Ship of Two hundred Chaldrons arrives at his Wharf one Day he can discharge them the next , besides the Privilege that he has of chusing such Coals as will give all People satisfaction , by reason of the Fleet , always lying be fore his Wharf .

Now for Answer to the first Objection , That he can procure as much Custom , as will always keep his Engin employ'd , by the following Methods :

First , he proposes , that out of the one Shilling and Ten pence , that is sav'd out of the Engin , one Shilling shall be allow'd the Customer . At all other Places , every one gives one Shilling per Chaldron Light ' rage ; besides the waiting for Tides : Here all Persons , who deal with him are freed from the charge of Lighters , and the trouble of waiting for Tides : For they stand on the Wharf , and see their Coals Measured out of the Vessel , into the Fat , by a Sworn Meeter , Loaded into the Carts ▪ and carried immediatly to their respective places of Abode , if it be a Hundred Chaldrons in a Day ; which gives a general Satisfaction , and has already turned to that account , that he has gain'd above Five hundred Customers .

And can it be supposed , that Brewers ; Glass-houses , Dyers , D stillers , and other great Dealers that use Five or Six hundred , or a Thousand Chaldrons of Coals in the Year , will give so many hundreds of Shillings for L●ghters , besides the trouble and charge of waiting for Tides ; when they can save Thirty , Forty , or Fifty pounds in the Year , and be at no Trouble or Expence ?

And to the 2d Objection , it may be replyed , that there is Ten pence per Chaldron remaining out of the Profit of the Engin , which is to go for the Interest of a Thousand Pounds ; so that the whole Profit of the Engin , is given to procure a Trade , and increase the Stock .

And as for the 3d Objection , the Profits and Advantages to the Undertaker and Partner , will be these , viz.

I. Three pence for every Chaldron Wharfage , and Nine-pence for the Loading of the Carts

II . The advantage of buying them Cheaper , by reason of the quick delivering of the Shipping .

III . The Advantage of the Carts , that Carry them Home .

IV The Advantage of the Rise of Fifteen hundred , or Two thousand Chaldrons of Coals in the Winter , when they rise Five , Ten , Fifteen , or Twenty Shillings in a Chaldron ; which said Quantity of Coals he designs to lay up every Winter .

So that First , here is a certainty of a great Trade , 2dly , there is an Assurance of good Intrest for Mony , and 3dly , there will be considerable Profit to himself and Partner .

The main Design in Printing these Proposals , is for the encouragment of Trade ▪ and to make the best advantage to himself , of such an Undertaking : For he is ass●r'd , That were there Three Four , or Five thousand pounds Stock ; what with the Profit of the Engin , the Advantage of buying the Coals at the best hand , with the Wharfage , Loading , carrying of them home , returning the Mony so often in the Year , and the rise of the Coals in the Winter , it would make Cent per Cent , without the running any Hazard

And for further satisfaction ; any Person who is desirous to be admitt●d as Partner , or otherwise , may come and see the Engin work nine , or t●n Chaldrons of Coals from the Ship , in the space of an Hour . Those that cannot come themselves , and yet have a mind to be concern'd , may send a Penny-post Letter to the said Charles Povey , signifying where he may come and discourse with them about that Affair .
