State Of The Country Speech In The House Of Commons Thursday The 18th Of March 1830 PDF Download

Excerpt from State of the Country: Speech in the House of Commons, Thursday, the 18th of March, 1830 If this, Sir, was the resolution of the House, three years only after the act of 1819, how much more ought we to adhere to it in 1830! The greatest of all curses, to an opulent and commercial country, is a system of vacil lation, unsteadiness, and alternation in its standard of value, frequently disturbing and unsettling the property and fortunes of individuals, and destroying the foundation of confidence and security in all contracts and pecuniary dealings between man and man, as well as in the honour and good faith of the government. I wish I could say, that there are no other causes connected with our Cur-a rency (even as it now is), which, by affecting commercial credit, render alternations in its value far too frequent, and which I think it ought to be our duty to endeavour to correct.
