Paper Mischief

In the mere idea – the idea simply taken –
that the known depretiation rise of prices universally acknowledged
rise of prices has for one of its causes
or even for its principal cause (such part
of the effect as is not accounted for by the
state of the agriculture of the country) there is
nothing new. It is an idea that has been
long ago started, and from quarters too numerous
to be counted has been repeatedly renewed held up
to view.

What there is now in the following pages is
confined to what regards the such following questions
as the following viz. – in what proportion the this cause in question
has contributed to the effect. Of the evil which
can not be denied to be attendant on it what
what the magnitude may be, in what if
in any degree it the evil may be attended with a degree
of good capable of entering into being considered as affording a compensation for
it – accompanied with any good effects
flowing from the same cause: whether the
ballance, if on the side of evil be of a
magnitude considerable enough to call for
legislative interference – what may be the
measure and the most eligible measure – to be pursued adopted in
the view of remed applying a remedy to the
evil – and what the course of proceeding best
adapted to that purpose.
