the local Post-Offices.

4. In For the composition of the colour two such ingredients
might be employ'd selected, of such a nature as that
one of them my would be enlivened, by any

menstruum by which the any colour on the mark
would be discharged.

6. In the successive years, different modes of marking
might be employ'd in the same instrument,
and, the spaces for the years bring so small and so
close, the peril difficulty of any obliterative experiment would
be extreme. A single year's interest would scarcely
be an object in the instance of the largest note that
would probably be in currency; and to make the attempt
a man must not only be in possession of
the principal, but put to hazard the loss of the
amount of it.

suggested partly by the general and known principles of the science,
partly by particular trials made long ago
in this view.
