referred to it,

rather part with
gold than with
one Annuity note.
Neither can it
lose its value

is complled to
Enter gold for a
debt, and can
not be compelled to
enter Annuity Notes.

in which
the purchase of it
could be made
but Annuity Notes.

proportion as between
Cash & Paper
a wild object itself
be general convenient
without any scarcity
on either side.
As neither could
be driven one (by the other) both would
stay.
