proposed Annuity Notes.
These split sticks with correspondent
notches weremay be considered as a contrivance of no small ingenuity,
for the age which gave them birth: and for
aught I know can pretend to say, may be at least upon a par
with any other for the particular purpose for which
they are in use: but, for to the purpose of the proposed
currency, and the transfers it is adapted destined
to undergo, and the dangers it will have to combat,
a system of checks in which embracing the arts of
engraving, paper making, and letter founding, each
in its most delicate and difficulty-imitated forms,⊞ ⊞(a system of which the learned Baronet has given so exquisite a misrepresentation, in a passage we shall come to presently)
will perhaps be deemed still better adapted than the parts parts of the split stick, as well as
to the lights and usages of the present age. a system
of which the learned Baronet has given so exquisite
a misrepresentation, in a passage which will
presently come under review.
