ample copious spring. Take from it, and then is no diminution,

of an equal number of others and keep them out of existence — It is not here
the place to treat this subject with the extent that it might
admitt of and that it deserves — loose hints may be found in
other books: but whoever has read Mr Hume's admirable
Essay on Money if he is satisfied with that profound
politicians arguments reasoning in support of this Idea as applied
to that subject, as I think an unprejudiced reader can
hardly fail to be, will observe how exactly applicable it
is to the present.
