A reduction of a similar nature, but of smaller amount, takes place on the Redemption of each subsequent Loan, the Period of which may be found in Table, A. 3. Table, C. 1. Estimated ANNUAL and TOTAL AMOUNT of NEW TAXES, to be imposed according to the Existing SYSTEM, and according to the Proposed PLAN; on the Supposition of Annual Loans of 12 Millions at £.3 per cent. until the Redemption of all Funded Debt created prior to 1813. * In 1826, the War Taxes pledged for the Loan 1807 will, according to the Existing System at £. 3 per cent. be set at liberty by the Redemption of that Loan, and again become applicable to the Service of the year. The future annual Loans are therefore reduced to £. 11,000,000, and the Charge thereby occasioned to £. 440,000; and from the year 1840, it is supposed that the Loans will be charged upon the Funds appropriated to the Consolidated Sinking Fund of 1802, which will fall in in 1841, and the several Loans which will fall in after that year; and therefore no further Taxes will be necessary. The rate of £.3 per cent. is assumed on the abovementioned suppositions, as shewing nearly the latest period to which the Redemption could be protracted, according to the Proposed Plan. 68,928,703 77,120,740 85,752,777 94,824,814 104,336,851 114,288,888 124,680,925 135,512,962 146,784,999 158,497,036 TABLE, C. 2.-Estimated Amount of the SINKING FUND at the 1st of August in each Year, according to the Existing System, and according to the Proposed Plan; upon the foregoing Suppositions.
