Art. 11 24

It is obvious that so far as these Silver Notes
(such is the name that might be given to Notes of a
less value than the 5s the largest price of Silver
Coin in use) so far as these Silver Notes were received
in the circulation, so far the embarassment
and risk that attach upon the Silver Coin would
be avoided: and as in the instance of the Silver
Coin, this embarassment and risk is beyond much measure
greater than in the instance of the gold coin,
hence arises a peculiar advantage belonging resulting
from this currency, in so far as it embraces in its extent the field occupied by the silver coinage
Whether it would have the effect of expelling altogether
or reducing in any considerable degree the
quantity of bad silver is another question: suppose
as it were really productive of this effect, it
would a cure to an evil against
which all other which has latterly
baffled in a great degree the utmost efforts of
Government to overcome it.

As to the case of the Copper Coinage, it seems hardly
worth considering in this view, at least in the first
instance.
