Mr Bentham's Plan for preventing Forgery of Paper Money. 2.
The quantity of Letter-press
thus made requisite,
is no objection,
but an advantage.

In the Paper of a Bank Note, the extent of surface is so
simple, and the portion, really necessary for containing the quantity
of matter inserted, is in comparison so small, that after
allowing a quantity of space sufficient for this principal and
essential purpose, there would remain a quantity amply sufficient
for the several collateral purpose above indicated: especially if
the type were a small one, such as those which are commonly
used in Newspaper. So far from being an objection, the increase
thus produced in the quantity of letter-press would be an advantage
because the greater the quantity of Letter-press necessary, the greater
the quantity of Letter-Founder's Stock necessary to the execution of it,
and consequently the greater the expence and danger and consumption
of time, attendant on a plan of criminal imitation, according to
the principles above established. —

Note (b) continued. — 2 (b)
Insufficiency of the advertisements,
in regard to
cutting. —

and that notification has been given of it by a multitude of advertisements,
is what I am sufficiently apprised of:
