Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Dissertation on the State of the British Finances, the Debt, Currency, and Banking: With a Plan for Raising Thirty Millions, or More, Without Loan or Increased Taxation Also, Some Observations on Ireland
Since then I have re?ected much on the subject, read much, and had time to put what I recommended into a small pamphlet, and now bring it before the nation. I have no object (and can have no other) but to give my assistance, such as it is, to our country, now (let men say what they choose) in a most critical state.
I had actually written so far for a Preface, when a friend sent me a pamphlet by a merchant, published by Ridgway in 1833, on Banking and Currency; and am glad to find by the above able pamphlet that a London merchant had conceived the same idea in 1833 as I did in 1842; and, had I known it before, would most certainly have availed myself of it in sup port Of my plan, and giving him the credit he de serves.
Ihave Observed in my answer to claimants of no claim whatever, that it is very possible two men who never saw each other might entertain the same opi nion on any given subject.
