The foregoing Tables Use, etc.  
Consider Interest at 6 per Cent. and observe how the Figures are marked in the Margin, as to Shillings, Pounds, Ten of Pounds, against the Months. etc. and thus you will find one months' Interest come to 1 d. a Month, and some li●●le matter more; so small as to be divided 3 months to 3 d. 2 d. ● months' to 7 d. 9 to 10 d. 1 q. and a very small matter more, 12 to 1 s. 2 d. and by this direction you may proceed to any part of this Table with much ease and readiness.

The Explanation of the foregoing Table.  
NOte, That the Hundred here meant is to contain 112 pound; then further observe, that if you buy Goods 1 q. the pound, it comes to 2 s. 4 d. the Hundred, as in the tops of the first and second Column; if at 1 d. then 9 s. 4 d. and so of the rest, being already cast up. Now to know what you gain by the pound or in the hundred rather: Suppose you buy Goods at 4 l. 1 s. 4 d. per Cent. and retail them at 10 d. the pound, it comes to 4 l. 13 s. and 4 d. so that setting aside the first price, you will find yourself 11 s. 8 d. gainer; and so you may readily perceive any other sum.

The foregoing Table is very requisite readily to know the exact price of a Quarter of a Yard, a Quarter of a Hundred or a Pound, when the Goods are bought by the Hundred and Yard; showing moreover the price of a Nail of a Yard, or an Ounce, when the Commodity is bought by the Yard or Pound.  
As thus in Example.  
Suppose a Yard comes to 3 s. What is allowed for a Quarter and a Nail: Look 3 s. in the first Column, and against it in the second you have 9 d. the price of a Quarter, and in the third Column 2 d. 1 q. the price of a Nail.  
If the Pound cost 9 s. and you would know what an Ounce is worth; Against 9 s. in the first Column, you will find in the third Column 6 d. 3 q. the price of an Ounce. And if you buy any thing by the Hundred, see the first Column for the price of a Pound, and suppose the 112 cost 8 l. 9 s. Note,  
Against 8 l. in the first Column is 1, 5, 0, 4. in the 4th.  
Against 9 s. in the first Column is 0, 0, 3, 6. in the 4th. Add these, and they give the Price of a Pound; viz. 1 s. 6 d. and a 4th part.  
And by this Rule you may proceed to a greater quantity, as the occasion requires; so that at first sight you may be informed to your satisfaction, in what is before you, and with little pains be enabled to proceed.

Suppose now you had a Lease to continue ten years, and you would know how many years purchase in ready Money it is worth: To do this, find 10 years in the Table in the Lefthand Column, and against it there appears 7 years, 4 months, and a third part of ● months' Rend of the Lease. Let the Lease be what it will; or if the Lease has 31 year in remainder, and you would know its true value, Look for 31 in the Table, and against it you will find 13 years, 11 months, and 1 part of a month, let the Rent be what it will.

Note, That in these Tables of Wages and Expenses the Months consist but of 28 Days.  
The foregoing Table is easy to be understood, and therefore wants little Explanation, for you find in the uppermost row 1 d. a day, 7 d. a week, 2 s. 4 d. a month, 1 l. 10 s. 5 d. a year; and so of the rest. And indeed this Table being often before our Eyes, will make us more frugal, when we see what a little a day amounts to in the year; for every penny will purchase 3 feet square of good Land freehold for ever; which for the better reclaiming Spendthrifts, will not be amiss to demonstrate; viz.  
Ten feet and a half being a Rod, and 40 Rods (that is 660 feet) in length, and four such Roods (that is 66 feet in breadth) makes an Acre of Land; it follows then by Multiplying 660 by 60, that every Acre contains 4356 square feet,: Now it is presumed that good Land may be had for 20 s. an Acre Rent; or 20 l. for an Acre Purchase, that is, 4200 d. Now if you divide 4356 by 4800 the Quotient is 9, and the 360 remaining, which shows that every penny does purchase 9 square feet, that is a yard every way, and something better.   

Exact Rules, with Tables and Examples for measuring Stone, Glass, Pavement, Timber, Building, and all other things by a generous Improvement, highly necessary to be known.  
IN Mensuration, sometimes it is done with a Rule, sometimes with a Chain, and sometimes with a Line, the Foot Rule is 12 Inches, and every of these divided into 12 parts, and every part into 12 other parts, and so to the most minutest degree: But in the easiest and quickest way of Measuring, it must be observed to multiply the sum given by the Integers of the Multiplyer, always beginning from the least denomination, and carrying one for every twelve to the next. Then for the parts:  
Multiply the inches into feet, which divide by 12 quotes, inches and parts; then multiply inches into parts, which divide by 12 quotes, parts into parts; parts into feet, and divide by 12 quotes, inches and parts.  
Parts into inches, and divide by 12 quotes, first parts and second parts.  
Parts into parts, and divide by 12 quotes, second and third parts, and so proceed; always observing, that if the Quotient be more than 12, then divide it again by 12, and the Quotient will be a denomination higher: But for your better Instruction, make use of the following Table, and observing to set one denomination under another, the sum is the product.  

A Table for Multiplying Foot measure.  1— 12 (12) 2— 24 3— 26 4— 48 5— 60 6— 72 7— 84 8— 96 9— 108 10— 120 11— 132 12— 144 13— 156 14— 168 15— 180 16— 192 17— 204 18— 216 19— 228 20— 240 21— 252 22— 264 23— 276 24— 288 25— 300 26— 312 27— 324 28— 336 29— 348 30— 360 31— 372 32— 384 33— 396 34— 408 35— 420 36— 432 37— 444 38— 456 39— 468 40— 480 41— 492 42— 504 43— 516 44— 528 45— 540 46— 552 47— 564 48— 576 49— 588 50— 600 60— 720 70— 840 80— 960 90— 1080 100— 1200  
And to do this it will be convenient for better Instruction to lay down further Rules or Examples, by way of explanation; and therefore observe with wariness what follows.  
The Example.  
 Feet Inch. Parts  Feet Inch. Parts. Multiply 8 9 6 by 7 8 5  
Observe in this that 7 times 6 is 42 as in the Table, and the nearest number on the Lefthand is 36, the difference 6 is writ down, and 3 carried, which stands against 36 to the next denomination; 7 times 9 is 63, and 3 carried is 66: The nearest number in the Table is 60, the difference 6 written down, and 5 carried to the next denomination; 7 times 8 is 56, and 7 carried is 61, which writ under Feet; then proceed and multiply by the 8 Inches, and say 8 times 8 is 64, and against its nearest number 60 you find 5, and the remainder is 4, viz. 5 Feet 4 Inches; against 8 times 9 is 72, against which in the Table I find 6, taken for 6 Inches; and 8 times 6 is 48, against which stands 4, which is 4 first Parts: Then to Multiply the parts, 5 times 8 is 40, and the nearest of numbers in the Table to it is 36, against which stands 3, the difference being 4; viz. 3 Inches and 4 Parts. Then 5 times 9 is 45, against its nearest number 36, we find 3, and there remains 9, that is to say, 3 first parts and 9 second parts; then to come to a conclusion, 5 times 6 is 30, against 24 its nearest number I find 2, and the remainder is 6, that is 2 second parts, and 6 third parts; all these added together give the product.  
If you undertake to measure things of length and breadth; as Board, Glass, Pavement, Wainscor, Tiling, and such like; the Content is found by multiplying the length into the breadth, which is commonly taken in Feet, Inches and Parts. Board and Glass are measured by the Foot square, containing 144 square Inches. And now suppose you have a piece of Plank of 16 Inches square, how many square Feet is contained in it.  
EXAMPLE.  
Setting down 1 Foot 4 Inches, under 1 Foot 4 Inches, multiply them together as is taught by the foregoing Table, etc. and the Area or Content is 1 square Foot, 49 Inches, and 4 Parts.  
A Window that hath 4 panes or panels of Glass, each pane 1 Foot, 9 Inches, and 6 parts broad, and 4 Foot, 7 Inches, and 6 parts long. To know how many square Feet of Glass are contained in all.  
Multiply the length by 4, and say 4 times 6 is 24, which divided by 12, quotes 2, and nothing remains, you must carry 2 to the next denomination, writing down nothing: Then 4 times 7 is 28, and 2 carried is 30, which divide by 12 quotes 2, and leaves 6, then writ down 6, and carry the 2 to the next; this being done, I take 18 Foot for the breadth, and proceed as before.  
Suppose there is a Court to be paved of 18 Foot, 6 inches long, and 14 Foot, 6 inches Broad, and you are desirous to know the Content of square yards, the Rule is to multiply the length by the breadth, and to divide the product by 9  
EXAMPLE.  
Having Multiplied the length and breadth together, divide the square feet by 9, and so you have 29 yards, 7 feet, 3 inches, for the content of the said Pavement.  
In Measuring of solid bodies, observe that solid feet and inches are required.  
And now suppose you are to measure a piece of Timber, 14 foot long, and 18 inches broad. As for Timber, it hath the end either Square or Oblong, or in some other Figure: The general Rule to measure them all, is to find the Area of the end, and let that be muliplyed by the length; but suppose again, a piece of Timber, whose breadth and thickness is 8 inches, and length 14 foot, what then is the solid content? In this case Multiply the breadth and thickness one into another, and you will find 5 Inches, 4 Parts, which Multiply by 14, the length, and the solid Content is 6 Foot, 2 Inches, and 8 Parts.  
Though Brick-Walls are in some kind accounted superficial measure; yet when necessity constrains to outrun the common thickness, which is a Brick and half, they must be reduced by solid measure; or if they be under the accustomed thickness, they must by this way of Measuring be brought to bear with it; for the better understanding of which it will be requisite to set down a Table of Direction.  

A Table of Mensuration, confirming what has been premised; very useful for all Practitioners and Artificers.   Foot Inches. ½ 0 4 1 0 8 2 1 4 2½ 1 8 3 2 0 3½ 2 4 4 2 8 4½ 3 0 5 3 4 5½ 3 8 6 4 0 6½ 4 4 7 4 8 7½ 5 0 8 5 4 8½ 5 8 9 6 0 9½ 6 4 10 6 8 10½ 7 0  
And now having a Wall of 3 Bricks thick, 14 foot, 6 inches high, and 44 feet, 10 inches in length, and you would know how many square Roods are contained therein. Against the 3 Bricks in the first Column, you find the number 2, and by that multiplying the height, the increased for height is the 1 and ½ Brick, the Proof thus,  
And by these Rules f●rther light and improvement may be ●●d.   

An Introduction to the Rule and Mystery of Gauging, very useful and profitable for all whose Study or Employment lie that way.  
IN Gauging, to find the true Content of any Cask or Vessel.  
First, Observe the form of the Vessel, and if it be irregular, reduce it to a regular proportion.  
Secondly, To discover in Cubick Inches of the Gallon, or parts of a Foot.  
(1.) Measure the Diameter of the Vessel at the Bung and Head, and by the Diameter find out the Areas of the Circles; then take the two thirds of the Area of the Circle at the Head, and add them together, then multiply the sum by the length of the Vessel.  
(2.) By the Content of our Gallon, the measure of all these Vessels must be known: A Wine-Gallon is reputed to contain 151 Cubick Inches; however it is most convenient first to find the Area of the Circles, and then the Content of the Vessel in Cubick Inches; and lastly, to reduce this into Gallons, which is best done: When you compute the Gallons by Cubick inches, as directed.   

To Measure a Barrel that is round and bellied in the middle.  
Multiply half of the thickness in Inches, by half the compass about, and that product by the length in the Inches; the last product divide for Ale or Wine by 288, and the Quotient shows the number of Gallons contained in the Barrel; and to bring these Gallons into Barrels, divide the Quotient by 36, to make them come near with a Beer Barrel; but if the Barrel bellies extremely in the middle, measure but half to the Bung, and working as before, add the products together, and they give the content, always observing that the Diameter of the Bung and the Head being put together, the one half be taken for the true content.  
Note, That you have 〈◊〉 and a third part of Inches to the Gallon; and th●s you 〈◊〉 a brief Introduction into the Mystery of G●●ging.   

Curiosities relating to Measuring and Gauging; as a Supplement to the foregoing Treatise. To know how many Load of Hay a Barn will hold.  
MUltiply the height to the Beam into the breadth, and that product by the length, the whole divided by 20, and the Quotient shows the Loads to the Beam, and for the Roof, multiply half the depth into the breadth at the Beam, and that product by the length, then working as before, add it to the other.   

To find the solid Inches in a Globe.  
Suppose the Diameter to be 21, multiply 21 by 21, and that product by 21, which multiply by 11, and the product will be 101871, which being divided by 21, gives 4851 the solid Inches in the Globe or Bullet; and so of greater or lesser.   

To Measure or Gauge a Square Tun or Vessel.  
Multiply the length, breadth, and depth in Inches together, and the last production divide by 288¾, and the Quotient shows the Gallons, and that Quotient by 36, to bring it into Barrels.  
A Cord of Wood is 4 foot over, 4 deep, 8 long, being 128 Cubick feet. A Stack of Wood is 3 feet over, 3 feet deep, and 12 long, which makes 108 Cubick Feet. Fifty foot of Timber makes a Load; 40, 8 Tun weight. A Cubick Foot contains 1728 Inches; a Cubick Yard 27 Cubick Feet or 46656 Inches; 300 Foot of 2 Inch plank, 200 Foot of 3 Inch plank, 15 Foot of 4 Inch plank, 400 Foot of 1½ Inch, and 600 of an Inch, make either of them a Load.

W. and N. E. Points always make High Water at London.   

Signs of Wether.  
RAin is towards, when the Sun shows broad in Rising, as through a Mist, or has a Circle about it; when it sets in a black Cloud, or looks pale and waterish.  
The Moon pale, and blunt-horned near the change.  
The Sky red in the morning; the often change of the Wind, many scattering Clouds North-West at Evening; Wind long in the South, Stars dull and hardly appearing, or seeming dull and large, as through Mists.  
Expect fair Wether when the Sun rises bright, and Mists are on the Water; when the Bees fly far from their Hives, and the Rainbow shows very light in the blue part, when the Sun sets red, and casts direct beams.  
Expect storms of Wind when there is a dusky redness in the Moon and Sun; a soft murmuring in the Woods; Meteors shooting in the Air; a dull Circle about the Moon; a red Morning and Seafowl flocking to the Shore.   

How to discover bad and counterfeit Money.  
IF a piece be smooth and worn, hold it to the light, the flat uppermost, and the edge to your eye, and if it be Brass or Copper, you will perceive it blacker in one place than another. If a half Crown belly out, fling it hard upon a stone edge-ways, and if it be plated the plate will give way; or if you throw it down flat-ways, it will fall dead.  
If the Letters be mackled, and an old piece feel rough in your hand, it is a sign of a Counterfeit: If Milled Money look more than ordinary whitish or pale, it is but searching, and you will find it either adulterated Metal, or Copper double gilt, if it sound hollow in the fall, expect it is plated. As for Guineas, many of them are counterfeit, by double gild or embasing, which may be tried by fire; for being heated, they will immediately change colour.   

Seasons for Husbandry every Month in the Year.  
IN January remove Bees, bleed Calves, prune Vines, dung Pasture, prune Fruit-Trees.  
In February dress your Bee-stools, lay fresh Earth to the Roots of Fruit-Trees, sow Carrot-seed, Pease, Oats, and set Quicks.  
In March sow Turnips, Beans, Pease, make up Gardens, sow forward Seeds, graft and geath Layers: If the Wether be warm Purge and let Blood.  
In April lop Ashes, Willows, and weed your Grounds.  
In May sow Pursley and latter Seeds.  
In June take off the Luxuriant Branches of the Vine, clip Quick-hedges, set Rosemary, and water choice Fruit-Trees.  
In July cut off the needless Succours, drive Bees, Mow and Graft.  
In August sow Turnips, take Bees, and choose the best Wether for inning your Harvest.  
In September Purge and let Blood, sow Wheat and Rye, remove young Trees.  
In October geath Apples and Vintage, make Cider and Wines to keep all the year, lay open Fruit-Tree Roots.  
In November cut Timber, Moss, Fruit-Trees, kill Swine, geld Calves.  
In December keep good Fires, and make good Cheer.   

An exact Account of Troy and Averdupoize weight, wet, dry and long measure; in measuring Commodities, Land, etc. set out in Tables, words at length explaining them to the meanest capacity.  
TRoy Weight is that by which Gold, Silver, Electuaries, Amber, Jewels, Bread, Corn, Liquors are weighed by; and indeed from this Weight, all Measures for wet and dry Commodities are taken, and is thus accounted;  

Troy Weight.     Grains.  Pennyweight. 24  Ounces. 20 480 Pounds. 12 240 5760  
The pound Troy is in proportion to the pound Averdupoize, as 17 is to 14, and the Ounce as 51 to 56: And note by the way, that when Wheat is at 5 s. the Bushel, than a Penny Wheaten Loaf is to weigh 11 Ounces Troy, and 3 halfpenny white Loaves the like weight. The Household Penny Loaf 14⅔ Ounces; and so proportionable for a greater or lesser quantity.  
The Apothecaries have a weight peculiar to themselves, in some matters somewhat differing from the former, though in the main, it comes to the same end: An Example of which the following Table will produce.  

Apothecary's Weight.      Grains    Scruples. 20   Drams. 3 60  Ounces 8 24 488 Pound. 12 96 280 5760  
Although they make up their Medicines by this Weight, yet they buy and sell their Drugs by Averdupoize; and because in theirs, and Doctors Bills, and sometimes in Reading Physic Books, there are Characters not known to the vulgar, it will not be amiss for their better understanding to explain them; viz.  
℞ Recipe. Take thou; Ana of each a like; P. a Pugil or half handful; M. Manipulus, a handful; Q. S. quantum sufficit, a sufficient quantity; Gr. a Grain; ℈ a Scruple, or 20 Grains; ʒ a Dram, or Scruples; ss, semissis, or half a Pound; lb a Pound, or 12 Ounces.  
Averdupoize Weight weighs all manner of things that have waste: As Drugs, Grocery, Rosin, Wax, Tar, Pitch, Tallow, Hemp, Flax, Soap, and all base Metals and Minerals; As Led, Steel, Iron, Tin, Copperas, etc. and for the computation of this Weight, take the following Table.  
     Drams     Ounces. 16    Pounds. 16 256  Quarters. 28 448 7168 Hundreds. 4 112 1792 28672 Tuns. 20 80 2240 35840 573440  
This Tun is 20 hundred weight in all things but Lead, and there is allowed but 19 hundred and a half to the Tun or Fodder; 112 pounds being allowed in most things to the hundred weight; but in Allom, Cinnamon, Nutmegs, Pepper and Sugar, there is accounted but 108 pounds. Essex Cheese and Butter are weighed by half Stone or Clove, being 8 pound; and 32 of these Cloves are a Wey, or 256 pounds. Wool is sold by the Clove, allowing but 7 pound to the Clove, and 14 pound to the Stone, 28 to the Tod, and 182 pounds to the Wey, 364 pound to the Sack, and 4368 pound to the Last: A Faggot of Steel is 120 pound, a burden of Gad Steel 180; 56 pound of Butter, or 60 pound of Soap makes a Firkin, two Firkins the Barrel: And further note, though for many things the Stone is 14 pound, yet for Flesh it is allowed but 8.  
As to Measures, they are distinguished by three kinds, Wet, Dry and Long: And first, the Wet Measures have likewise their differences in some degree; viz. Ale Measure has but 32 Gallons to the Barrel, which is 2 Kilderkins, 4 Firkins, 64 Pottles, 128 Quarts, and 256 Pints; and Vessels for Butter, Fish, Soap, etc. are made after this Measure. Beer Measure has 36 Gallons to the Barrel, which is 2 Kilderkins, 4 Firkins, 72 Pottles, 144 Quarts, 288 Pints.  
Wine Measure, the Hogshead is 63 Gallons, the Pipe or But 2 Hogsheads, or 126 Gallons; the Tun 2 Pipes or Butts, or 252 Gallons; the Tierce is 42 Gallons.  
Dry Measure, is that sort by which Corn and the like are measured by; and in this 2 Pints are a Quart, 2 Quarts a Pottle, 2 Pottles a Gallon, 2 Gallons a Peck, 4 Pecks a Bushel, 8 Bushels a Quarter, 5 Quarters a Wey, and 2 ways a Last; or to take it another way, the Last is 2 Wey, 10 Quarters, 80 Bushels, 320 Pecks, 640 Gallons, 1280 Pottles, 2560 Quarts, and 5120 Pints. Note, That a Bushel of Salt-Water measure should contain 5 Pecks.  
Measures of length, thus; the length of 3 Barley corns taken out of the middle of the Ear, is accounted an Inch, 12 Inches a Foot, 3 Feet a Yard, 5 Yards and half a Pole, 40 Pole a Furlong, 8 Furlongs a Mile: Or thus, either; 8 Furlongs, 320 Poles, 1760 Yards, 5280 Feet, or 63360 Inches, make a Mile.  
Super-square measure makes out the square mile, as in the following Table.  
     Feet.     Yards. 9    Poles. 30¼ 272¼   Roods. 40 1210 10890  Acres 4 160 4840 43560 Mil. 640 2560 102400 3097600 27878400  
So that by this Account, 640 square Acres make the square mile; and so of the rest, as in the Table is plainly to be seen.   

An Account of Time in Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks, Months and Years; with the denomination of the principal Feasts, or Quarter-days, with the days, Shrove-Sunday, Easter-Day, Ascension-day, Whit-Sunday, and the movable Terms will fall on for twelve Years to come: Also the end of the Terms.  
THE measure of time ariseth from Minutes; and of these 60 make an Hour, 24 Hours a Natural Day, 7 Days a Week, 4 Weeks a Month, 13 such Months; 1 Day, and 6 Hours, a Year; but this Year is commonly divided into 12 equal Calendar Months, their number of Days, many of them being unequal, are set down in these Lines.  
Thirty days has Fruit-bearing September,  
Moist April, hot June and cold November;  
Short February Twenty eight alone,  
The other Months, each claim his Thirty one:  
And February when her fourth Year's run,  
Does gain a day then from the travelling Sun.  
So that by this Rule, February every Leap-Year having 29 days, that year must consist of 366 days, being a day more than others.  
The Year is again divided into 4 Quarters, viz. The Feast of the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary, called Lady-Day, on the 25th of March; the Feast of St. John Baptist, called Midsummer-day, on the 24th of June; the Feast of Michael the Archangel, called Michaelmas-day, on the 29th of September; and the Feast of Christ's Nativity, called Christmas-day, on the 25th of December; and now by reason there are some days that vary and move, falling higher or lower, according to the changing of the Moon; as Shrove-Sunday, Ascension-day and Whit-Sunday, it will be worth our pains to give an account how they shall exactly fall for twelve years to come.  
Year Shrove-Su. Easter-day Ascen. day Whit-Su. 1692 February 7 March 27 May 5 May 15 93 Febr. 26 April 16 May 25 June 4 94 Febr. 18 April 8 May 17 May 27 95 Febr. 3 March 24 May 2 May 12 96 Febr. 23 April 12 May 21 May 31 97 Febr. 14 April 4 May 13 May 23 98 March 6 April 2 June ● June 12 99 Febr. 19 April 9 May 18 May 28 1700 Febr. 11 March 13 May 9 May 19 01 March 2 April 20 May 29 June 8 02 Febr. 15 April 5 May 1● May 24 03 Febr. 7 March 28 May 6 May 16  
And now because Easter and Trinity Term are likewise movable, it will be very proper to give the like years to come upon them, of which we therefore present you a Table of their exact beginning and ending.

Sundry rare Receipts and curious useful Experiments, worthy of Notice.  

To whiten Ivory.  
TAke fine new slaked Lime, and cover the Ivory with it when it is pretty hot, and it will take away the yellowness or defect.   

To Cement Glass, or fine China Ware.  
Take the glare of Eggs, Eggshells and quick Lime, and beat them together to an extraordinary fineness, adding a little of the Powder of Gum Sandrick, and when it is moist, smeer the edge of the broken thing, and clap it on even, and it will be as strong there as in other places.   

To take blots out of Paper or Parchment.  
Drop a little Allom-water, and rub it gently over with cotton-wool.   

To write like Gold without it.  
Take Gum Armoniac, a little Vermilion, and the glare of Eggs; mix them well together, and thin them with water to a temper fit to write withal.   

To write like Silver.  
Take an ounce of block Tin, and as much Quicksilver; melt the Tin, and mix them together; then grind or file them into Gum-water, and the writing will appear like Silver.   

To make good Black Ink.  
To a gallon of clear small Beer, put half a pound of Galls well bruised, 3 ounces of blue Copperas, then stir them often, putting in 2 ounces of Gum Arabic, and so set it warm, and it will prove a curious black.   

To make Red Ink.  
Take the Rasping of Brazile-wood two ounces, Allom half an ounce; let them soak in 3 pints of small-Beer Vinegar, than put an ounce of Gum Arabic, and a little Vermilion, and simper it over a ●entle fire.   

To make Red, Green, or Black Sealing-Wax.  
Take a pound of Bees Wax, three ounces of Turpentine, Read-Lead, or vermilion, as much as will colour it; melt them over a gentle fire, well incorporating the Ingredients; and thus Green and Black Wax is made; if to the first, instead of Vermilion you put Verdegrease; and to the latter, black Earth or Lamb-black.

And in this manner, by the addition only of the Names, Titles and Places, you may make this Bond from three to one; or as many as you will; and if you be to make a Bond from one to two, or three, or more; then add the Titles, Names, and Abodes after the teneri & firmiter obligari, otherways before it; and thus changing what is necessary, you may make it for as many, or as few, as the occasion requires; and if the money be to be paid at a certain place, that place must be mentioned in the Bond; and if you agree for Interest from the time of Sealing, it must be mentioned in the Condition (after the Sum named) with Lawful Interest; or otherways 'tis held no Interest shall begin till the Bond become due, and the Latin Obligations serve for sundry other Conditions; the forms of which I shall set down.   

The Condition to perform an Award.  
THe Condition of this Obligation is such, That if the above-bounden W. G. his Executors and Administrators, and every of them, for his and their part in all things, do, and shall well and truly stand to, obey, perform, fulfil and keep the award, arbitrement, order, rule, doom, judgement, and final determination of A. B. C. D. Arbitrators indifferently chosen, nominated and appointed, as well on the part and behalf of the said W. G. of the one part,  
to arbitrate, award, order, judge of, and determine all and all manner of Actions, Suits, Debts, Damages, Accounts, Trespasses, Controversies and Demands whatsoever, had moved, stirred or depending, or which might have been had, or moved between the said Parties, at any time before the date of these Presents; so always as the same Arbitrators do make their award and judgements, of and concerning the Premises, by a Writing indented under all their Hands and Seals, on or before the first day of April, next ensuing the date hereof, really to be delivered to the said Parties; Then this Obligation to be void, and of none effect, or else to stand and remain in full force and virtue.  
Note, That if either party after Signing and Sealing refuse to stand by the award, and molest or trouble the other, the sum mentioned in the Bond be sued for, as if it were for Goods or money lent, and be recovered by Action. etc.   

A Condition to perform Covenants.  
THe Condition of this Obligation is such, That if the above-bound G. R. etc. do and shall from time to time, and at all times hereafter, well and truly observe, fulfil, perform and keep, all and singular the Covenants, Grants, Articles, Payments, Promises and Agreements, which on the part and behalf of the said G. R. and his Heirs, Executors, etc. or any of them, or to be observed, fulfilled, performed and kept, contained and specified in one pair of Indentures, bearing date the third of April, 1691, made between the said G. R. of the one part, and the within-named C. T. of the other part, according to the true intent and meaning of the said Indenture: Then this Obligation to be void and of none effect, or else to stand in full force and virtue.  
Note, That the Contents of the Covenant or Agreement, must be set forth at large in a pair of Indentures; one party keeping the one, and the other, the other; for if the Indenture cannot be produced to which this Bond refers, it will be of little use; wherefore sometimes the Covenant of Agreement is particularly mentioned in the Condition.   

The Condition of a Bail-Bond.  
THe Condition of this Obligation is such, That if the above-bounden A. P, do appear before our Sovereign Lord the King, in his Court of Kings-Bench at Westminster, Die Sabbati proxime post Octau.

How to be informed what any Sum of Money, Interest upon Interest, at 6 l. per Cent. will come to in 21 Years.  
This Table is very plain  l. s. d. qr. 1 1 1 2 1 2 1 2 5 2 3 1 3 9 3 4 1 5 3 0 5 1 6 9 0 6 1 8 4 1 7 1 10 1 3 8 1 11 1 2 9 1 13 9 1 10 1 15 9 3 11 1 17 11 2 12 2 0 2 3 13 2 2 7 3 14 2 5 2 2 15 2 7 11 0 16 2 10 9 2 17 2 13 10 0 18 2 17 0 3 19 3 0 5 3 20 3 4 1 2 21 3 7 11 2 and easy to be understood, however that none may be left in Ignorance, I shall here set down some Examples, for the better Explanation: As suppose you would know what (at Interest upon Interest for 20 Years) 36 l. comes to: Look against Number 20, in the first Column, and you will find what the Interest upon Interest comes to for that time; then by the Rule of Three say,  
If 1 l. be 3 l. 4 s. 1 d. 2 qr. what 36 l?  
If I desire to know how much 346 l. will amount to in 13 Years, Interest upon Interest at 6 per Cent: Look against Number 13, in the first Column, and you will find 2 l. 2 s. 7 d. 3 qr. Then say as before,  
If 1 l. be 2 l. 2 s. 7 d. 3 qr. what 346 l.?  
 
And by this Rule you may know what any other Sum will come to for longer or shorter time.   

Equation of Payment, etc.  
EQuation of Payment is the Rule among Merchants, whereby to Reduce the time of Payment for several Sums of Money to an Equated Time, for the Payment of the whole Debt, without damage to the Debtor or Creditor; and the Rule is, to Multiply the Sums of each particular Payment by its respective Time, then add the several Products together, and their Sum divided by the Total Debt, and the Quotient thence arising is the Equated Time for the Payment of the whole Debt.   

Loss and Gain in Buying and Selling easily known by Rules and Examples.  
SUppose a Merchant buys 436 Yards of Silk for 8 s. the Yard, and sells it again at 10 s. 4 d. per Yard, How shall he presently know what he gains? Why thus,  
Answer 39 l. 19 s. 4 d.  
In the first place find out by the Rule of Three, or Practice, how much the Silk cost him at 8 s. 6 d. per Yard, viz. 185 l. 6 s. then by the same Rule find out how much he sold it for, viz. 225 l. 5 s. 4 d. then Subtract 185 l. 6 s. (which it cost) from 225 l. 5 s. 4 d. (which he sold it for) and there remaineth 39 l. 19 s. 4 d. gain: And by this Rule you may compute a greater or lesser quantity; as also by deducting know what is Lost, as well as Gained.   

Rules of Barter in way of Trade among Dealers, and not to be overreached.  
BArter is a Rule among Merchants, and other Traders, which in the Exchange of one Commodity for another informs them in such a manner to Proportion their Rates as that neither may sustain Loss.  
Suppose two Traders, viz. C and D, Barter, C has 13 Hundred, 3 Quarters, and 14 Pounds of Ginger at 2 l. 16 s. per Cent. and D has Pepper at 9 d. per Pound, How much Pepper must D give C for his Ginger?  
We Answer, 9 Hundred, 1 Quarter: And for the easy finding this out, in any Quantity or manner of Goods, first find by the Rule of Three how much the Ginger is worth, saying, If 1 C. cost 2 l. 16 s. what will 13 C. 3 qrs. and 14 lb. cost?  
Answer 38 l. 17 s.  
Secondly by the Rule of Three say, If 9 d. buy 1 lb. of Pepper how much will 38 l. 17 s. buy?  
Answer, 9¼. and so much Pepper must be delivered for 13 C. 3 qrs. and 14 lb. of Ginger; and so you may Proportion any other Goods, though of different Values, and bring them to a Regular bearing.  

Tables of Liquid Measure.  Wine Measures.   Gallons  Gallons Hogsheads. 63 Tierce. 42 Pipe or But. 2 126 2 84 Tun. 2 4 252 3 126

By these Tables you may perceive, by the degrees of their descent, how by being Multiplied a small Quantity arises to a greater; as in Wine-Measure 63. Gallons make a Hogshead, 42 the Tierce, and so to the rest; and in Beer-Measure 2 Pints make a Quart, and so on-war ●s: These Tables being very necessary for ready casting them up.   

At what Rates Provisions may be Transported out of this Kingdom into Foreign Parts, and what not.  
ACcording to the Statute made in the Twelfth of K. CHARLES TWO, Gunpowder when it exceeds not 5 l. the Barrel, may be Exported: Wheat, Rye, Pease, Beans, Barley, Malt, Oats, Pork, Beef, Bacon, Butter, Cheese, and Candles, may be Exported when they do not exceed the following Prizes, at the Ports where they are Laded, at the time of their Lading, viz, Wheat the Quarter 2 l. Rye, Pease and Beans the Quarter 1 l. 4 s. Barley and Malt the Quarter 20 s. Oats the Quarter 16 s. Beef the Barrel 5 l. Pork the Barrel 6 l. 10 s. Bacon the Pound 6 d. Butter the Barrel 4 l. 10 s. Cheese the Hundred Pound 30 s. Candles the Dozen Pound 5 s. paying the respective Rates according as they are set down in the Book of Rates; yet it is so provided, That the King may, when he sees it convenient, put a stop to the Transportation of any Gunpowder, or other Ammunition, Naval, or Warlike Stores.   

The Drapers and Cloathiers' Direction in Measure and Weight of English Woollen Cloth, very necessary to be known by all Dealers in it.  
KEnt, York, and Reading  should be 6 Quarters and an half wide, be in length 34 Yards, and weigh 86 lb. Suffolk, Norfolk, and Essex , of 7 Quarters wide, are to be 80 lb. weight, 29 and 32 Yards in length: Worcester, Coventry, and Hereford , of 6 Quarters and an half, are to weigh 78 lb. and to be in Measure 30 and 33 Yards: Gloucester, Oxen, Somerset, and Wiltshire , of 7 Quarters wide, are to weigh 76 lb. and to be in length 29 and 32 Yards: Suffolk Sorting Cloth, of 6 Quarters and an half wide, aught to weigh 64 lb. and be in length 24 and 29 Yards. All sorts of , that are 6 Quarters and an half wide, are to weigh 60 lb. and be 24 and 26 Yards in length. Broad and Narrow Yorkshire Cloth, of 4 Quarters wide, is to weigh 30 lb. and be in length 24 and 25 Yards.  
The Broad-cloath of Taunton, Bridgwater, and Dunstable, of 7 Quarters, are to weigh 30 lb. the Cloth, and to be in Measure 12 and 13 Yards: Devonshire Kerseys and Dossers, of 4 Quarters, must weigh 13 lb. and be 12 and 13 Yards in Measure: Checkered Kerseys, Gray's striped and plain, of 4 Quarters wide, are to weigh 24 lb. a Cloth, and to be 17 or 18 Yards in length: Penistones or Forests, of 3 Quarters and an half, should weigh 28 lb, and be in length 12 and 13 Yards: Sorting Penistons of 6 Quarters and an half, should weigh 35 lb. and be 13 and 14 Yards in length: Washers of Lancashire, and others, the  should weigh 17 lb. and be in Measure 17 and 18 Yards.  
This useful custom of Assizing Cloth at a certain weight was at first Imposed to hinder Defrauds in making sleazy and spongy Cloth, and therefore if any Cloth be found worse than is here specified, the Maker, or Seller, aught to allow according to the want, either in length or weight, and for refusing, an Action lies against him for a Defraud.   

Things very material to be considered on accepting, giving or paying Bills of Exchange, to prevent Delay, Trouble or Cost.  
I. OBserve when any Bill is received, or accepted, to note in your Book, the Name of the Place of Abode of the Person, or of him that sends it you.  
II. Keep Copies of the Bills sent to be accepted, and for your better safety, make the Direction of Bills on the In side, and especially for these Reasons, viz.  
1. By knowing the place of Abode of him that presents the first Bill you may be the better excused if he Except against the second Bill from the same hand before the first be satisfied.  
2. By taking of Copies of Bills sent to get Acceptance, you may know how Exchanges go in divers Places, and readily turn to the time you are to call for your Money; for every Person who gets a Bill to be Accepted, must present it in due time, that the Party may order his Affairs accordingly, and not be surprised with a Bill when just become due.  
If a Bill be Protested after Acceptance, it does not clear the Party who was faulty in Nonpayment, but renders him liable to pay the Charges, and Exposes himself to an Action at Law, to which before he was not liable, nor is the Drawer clear, but obliged to see the Bill satisfied.  
Again, It is dangerous to draw a Bill payable to the Bearer, because if he happen to lose it, any Person might bring it that finds it, for Acceptance and payment: So that it is best, for the preventing such Accidents, to make it payable to a particular Man, or his order, or otherwise, if it should be paid to the wrong Party, he on whom it is drawn, is not liable to pay it again, unless a Fraud or Connivance be proved.  
If a Man accept a Bill for part, and not for the whole, he must have an Acquittance for no more than he Received, and the Party must protest against the Bill for nonpayment of the rest.

Useful Instructions for Masters and Owners of Ships, in the Managing their Matters, and preventing the Damage that may be Incurred through Ignorance.  
I. IF a Master of a Ship has the trust of Goods in his care, and they be embezzled in the Port, or on the main Ocean, he must make them good to the Owner, or Merchant; as likewise the damage they sustain by carelessness or neglect; for he is Exercitor Navis, and is either by Marine, or common Law, liable to answer for the neglect of his Mariners: But if a Ship be taken by the Enemy, foundered, or be lost in a Storm, the Master is not liable to make satisfaction.  
II. If a Master send off his Boat to receive Goods at a Wharfe, and they be embezzled by the way, he is liable to make them good; nor at his peril ought he to bring home, or freight any prohibited Goods unknown to the Merchant or Owners that entrust him, nor Sail with false Colours, or carry false Cocquets, or other false Papers; for if by such means the Goods are involved in trouble or lost, he is liable to make Restitution.  
If he sends Goods in a close Lighter to a Wharfe by his own Mariners, and they be embezzled before delivery, he is bound to make them good; but if the Wharfinger sends his Men, and fetches them, then in case of Loss he is only liable.  
If a Master brings a Ship into any Port, and there through his neglect she suffers damage for it, he is liable to answer it.  
A Master may lawfully sell, or pawn, part of the Lading to refit or mend the Ship, if she be in any danger, but not to defray any Charges of his own.  
These and many other Obligations are binding upon a Master by the Laws Marine and Common● th● Mariners being accountable t● the Master, he to the Owners, and they to the Merchant, for all Damages sustained by neglect of their respective Duties or breach of Contract upon these occasions.

This way of Account in Reckoning and Bargaining was formerly used in all Cities, Towns, and Counties of England, as the current way of Buying and Selling and is so still in most Country Fairs and Marts; wherefore that none may be at a loss to know how Nobles and Marks are reducible to Pounds, it is plainly demonstrated in this Table: As for Example, If you would know how many Pound. 10 Nobles make, look in 1 Col. for 10, and in the second Collume against it you will find 3 l. 6 s. 8 d. and going to the next Coll. you find 10 Marks make 6 l. 13 s. 4 d. and so of the rest.

This Table refers properly to Buying and Selling; for if a Merchant, or Dealer, vends his Commodity to be paid, as they usually do, at the times mentioned, and after the Bargain is made for such Credit, the Debtor is willing to pay ready Money, if the other accept it he must abate so much of the interest as it would come to in the time, as if so much Money was put out to Interest, at the usual Interest of 6 l. per Cent. and then you will find, under each proportion of time, the same answered as to the Rebate.

Of the Inferior Courts in and about London, the Days and Places where they are held, and Attendance given, etc.  
I. THE Marshal's Court is held on Frydays in the Marshalseas in Southwark, and its Jurisdiction extends 12 Miles every way from White-Hall, and no further.  
II. The Court of Request, commonly called The Court of Conscience, is held at the Upper-end of Guild Hall, London, Wednesdays and Saturdays.  
III. The Court of Hustings is held on the Hustings on Tuesdays at Guild-Hall.  
iv The Two Sheriffs Courts for the Two Counters are held in Guild-Hall, for Woodstreet Counter Wednesdays and Fridays, and for the Poultry Thursdays and Saturdays.  
V The Mayor's Court is held Mondays & Tuesdays, and every Day in the Week if the Lord Mayor pleases to Sat; and this we have the rather noted, because many mistaking the days of one Court for another, have been Nonsuited, or otherways miscarried in their Business for want of Attending in due time to their great detriment and damage.

The like Carriage of every Packet of Letters, proportionable to these Rates.

And this for the greater advantage of speed as the business may require; it is done in so short a time, by Riding day and night, that Floods or violent Rains hinder not. The Post in 24 hours goes 120 miles, and an Answer in 5 days may be had, if there be no delay in 5 days.  
As for Riding Post, 3 d. a mile for every English mile is the due, and 4 d. a Stage for the Posts guiding or conducting. As for Foreign Letters, the Merchants generally know the Prizes, and few others being troubled with them, we for brevity omit the Prizes.

An exact Catalogue of the fixed and movable Fairs, held Yearly in England and Wales; the days and times of their continuance; the like for exactness, never before published.  
THE Fairs are of two sorts as to the times of their being held; some are fixed to a certain day, others change their days, or are movable with the Feasts: Therefore since no exact Account, as we know of, has been hitherto given, we shall labour to satisfy the curiosity of those, whose Pleasure or Advantage tends that way; and for those that are fixed, take them, for the more regular way, in their Month.
