throughout this kingdom were provided with decent churches,

domestic industry, if money were not wanting?
250. Qu. Whether money could ever be wanting to the demands of
industry, if we had a national bank?

establish a private bank in this kingdom by public authority, divers
gentlemen did not shew themselves forward to embark in that design?
252. Qu. Whether it may not now be hoped, that our patriots will be
as forward to examine and consider the proposal of a public bank
calculated only for the public good?
253. Qu. Whether any people upon earth shew a more early zeal for
the service of their country, greater eagerness to bear a part in
the legislature, or a more general parturiency with respect to
politics and public counsels?

serious?
