2 Bankruptcy probable
What there is of serious mischief in Br national
Bankruptcy depends not upon what is inherent to
the case, but upon what is accidental to it. The
alarm, the terror, the ill humour — the impatience the desperation
that is but too apt to attend the so formidable
a case. The real mischiefs of Bankruptcy
consist — not in what must unavoidably
be suffered — but in the effects of what may
through terror ill humour and desperation come to be done
[on the eruption of the malady.] By due preparation
the minds of men, in this case as in the
case of the small pox the body may be
guarded in no inconsiderable degree against the
malignity of the disease.
