[15] [ [ In process of time we] By cautions When
once the currency of a paper of a certain magnitude
of denomination has been thoroughly established,
it becomes a sort of standard of reference
and comparison, by the help of which a paper of
a lower denomination, so its been so ratio
to the larger paper be simple and easily apprehensible,
such as the half may be introduced with little difficulty: If the
in this case even to those to whom in whose eyes the small paper
if considered by itself might appear trifling and
contemptible, its faculty of being raised to a
level with the larger by simple addition will be
sufficient to raise it from contempt. A As a man
who would regard the Annuity purchaseable attached to by
a £6.6s note as worth buying sugg it may
happen to stop there, and no not longer to regard a
£4.£14s:6d note in the same light. But though
such should be his feelings with regard to a
4-1/2 Guinea list, the contempt so far from
increasing would rather vanish altogether, as he
descended in his views to the £ 3 Guinea Note:
because two such notes as these form make together the
exact equivalent of the 6 Guinea note, which he
has been accustomed, and which by his supposition
he regards as the representative of an Annuity
worth possessing.
