Excerpt from A Treatise on Currency and Banking The suspension of specie payments by all the banks in the United States, south of New England, in the year 1814, and of all, with a very few tri ing excep tions, in the year 1837, has strongly impressed - the public mind with the belief that there is something defective in the present banking system of this coun try; and it is not, perhaps, venturing too much to assert, that there are now elements at work, which will ultimately overthrow the whole fabric, unless those who have the power to remedy the evil, shall introduce the reforms which can alone render a repe tition of such a calamity impossible.

The question of the extent of the liability of individuals, and of their natural right to limit that liability, is one which, in its moral as well as in its economical aspects and relations, is of the highest interest and importance, and the satisfactory solution of which is intimately connected with the investigation of those general and fundamental principles of justice and of expediency, which should form the basis of all positive enactments. Prominent among the many plausible yet shallow fallacies which have, with a zeal and a perseverance worthy of a better cause, been urged in favor of the device of a limitation of individual liability--of a restriction upon personal responsibility--is the vain and contradictory assumption that the adoption and extension of this system of restraints is required by an enlightened adherence to the dootrines of the free trade theory--a tReory in the general truth of the conclusions of which there is, as we think, no sufficient reason to doubt.
