me to submit to you another composition, similar in
name, opposite or rather disparate in every thing else.
Should it bear the crucible, you Lordship will find no
difficulty but a real pleasure – in reporting as much to
those, who, on that supposition, will be equally happy to
make use of it. I have the honor to be
with all respect
My Lord
Your Lordship obliged
& most humble Servant
Lord Auckland

---page break---

P.S. Your Lordship is pleased to speak
of amusement – Will you forgive my
proposing to you a sort of Ribbus? A Rebus or two? – too
much (you will think), in the Marquis of
Worcester state.

Problem 1. How to frame a Government
paper that, though universally current, shall not be ~~alto~~
ith a to susceptible either of rise or fall? – This problem I
look upon as solved.

Problem 2. How to order matters so,
that under the most general extensive and sudden
demand for ready money possible (bating
fear of invasion or civil war) Government
Annuities, (though they be all of one hand) shall be convertible into ready
money in any quantity without loss? –
Solution state more incontestable incontrovertible
