Thus stands it with the regard to the public
creditor — the Stockholder, who, on if on the
comparative return <add>or </add> increase as relative of general prosperity and
opulence, has in former instances seen that
part of his income reduced by one half, and
who within a period already in prospect
may be doomed by the like cause to a reduction
of income to the like amount. —

But in comparison of the interests of this
vast branch of the community what can be the amount of of all
the other particular interests put together!

measure. It f has been fixed and derived
made known by the legislature, and built upon for years and years, by determinations
after several times repeated and brought
to view, without a doubt from that in any other quarter

way of warning of the probably sources, and grounds of opposition
and of the nature of the obstacles which may be to be combated
in + + in the course of the exertions necessary to bring the measure into effect.] During
