To pay old-debts without new-taxes , by charitably-relieving, politically-reforming, and judiciously employing the poor, under one new general law, we may justly and gradually discharge all our national debts, within Twenty Years, without Land-Tax, or New Imposition. And whilst these Debts, are thus gradually reducing, we may farther receive, from the Judicious Government of the Poor, much greater Benefits, than the Payment of those Sixty-Millions. And, in a Postscript, the proposed Qualifications, of the desired Corporation, for Relieving and Employing the Poor, are abstracted; and the great, and probable future Gains, of that Corporation, are particularly mentioned.
