Excerpt from A Serious Fall in the Value of Gold Ascertained, and Its Social Effects Set Forth: With Two Diagrams

In the following tract I commence by endeavouring to unfold the fundamental difficulties of the inquiry, afterwards discriminating the various causes of fluctuation in prices, in order that we may the more surely recognise the effect of the permanent cause in question. I then introduce tables formed and reduced in accordance with the principles of the subject so as to exhibit a depreciation of gold if any exists. The large depreciation rendered apparent is confirmed by an extended inquiry as regards the prices of 1860-62. The future depreciation of gold is considered on somewhat d prior/5° grounds, and the social effects are lastly deduced and commented on.
