Defalcation like addition – defalcation from
the source in question or from any other, defalcation, as well as addition may
be considered as before with reference to addition to wealth
– addition to prices – and influence on commercial
credit. Let us begin with wealth.

1. That a defalcation produced made in this or any other way
from the mass of money in circulation should in any case
be productive of any
addition to the mass
of wealth is seen to
be impossible at the
first word.

2. If, the at the commencement of the hoarding
plan, the capacity for national stock of labour happens to be fully
employed, and employed to the best advantage,
in respect of the encrease of wealth or if though not employed to the best advantage
things are so circumstanced that no addition to the
mass of money, or an addition to the mass of
money employed in the shape of productive capital
could have the effecting of causing the stock
of capacity for labour to be employed to any greater
advantage, and if at this time the ratio of
money to wealth and consequently the amount of prices is on the encrease, a
defalcation to any amount short of not exceeding that of
the supposed encrease of the stock of money can
not be productive of any defalcation from
the growing mass of wealth.

3. In any other than this last-supposed
case, the defalcation thus produce made from
the mass of money will be productive of a defalcation
to a certain degree from the mass of
wealth. Of the amount of this latter defalcation Let us endeavour to form an estimate
according to under the different modifications of which the
case is susceptible.
