As to the position – on the taking it as
stands on paper – and as it appears to
have been standing in the learned Baronet's
mind – it is indispensably true, little as but his
argument will be not be much the better for it.
According to the planitself, while there are
any Stocks at at all – any redeemable Annuities
remaining in the form of Stock – unredeemed
by Annuity Notes of the first issue – by
Annuity Notes bearing £2:19s per Cent –
no Annuity Notes of the second issue can
be issued; – because no second issue of Annuity for, by
Notes, at any that or any other reduced
rate, is intended to be issued. By
the terms of the Article,+ +Art. 20 it is "upon the redemption
of the last parcel of redeemable Stock Annuities",
and this the cessation", of the commission of Note Annuities
at this rate of interest, which a cessation is which by
Art. 6a mode a necessary consequence of, and not
before, that is the Offices are to be opened for the
"commission of a second issue at a reduced rate
"of interest".
Taking it strictly then, the case on which
he mentions as a case in which "the public will derive no benefit
can be from the plan",⊞ ⊞viz: the case of Governments trying whether "they can commission Annuity Notes yielding only 2 3/8 per cent interest", and finding it impracticable, is a case
under according to the plan, against which he is urging this argument,
which according to the plan itself can never happen.
