v \ In the year 1793, the Britiah merchants*
in consequence of the check given to trad?
and manufactures by the war on the con
tinent^ Had received great orders# and
engaged in immense speculations, which
besides th# circulating specie, required a
Hrast proportion of paper* as a medium*
above the usual quantity. The-BaiHt^
England, which was not prepare!, lor to
uncommon an event, soon perceived that
the extraordinary discount solicited by ttor

led to follow ihe example. Hence 4 KeR*
