6359. PAPER MONEY, Evils of.—

Stock
dealers and banking companies, by the aid
of a paper system, are enriching themselves
to the ruin of our country, and swaying the
government by their possession of the printing
presses, which their wealth commands,
and by other means, not always honorable
to the character of our countrymen.—
To Arthur Campbell. Washington ed. iv, 197. Ford ed., vii, 170.
(M. 1797)
