Excerpt from Credit Pernicious Considerable difficulty attends the introduction of any plan which may have an important opera: tion in political economy. If perfectly new it is viewed with jealousy; for until a novel scheme is put to the test of experiment; though the'good it will, iproduce may he foreseen, yet ill results'of which it may at the Same time be the parent, are not so readily anticipated. Supposing it to be new, and simple also, -suspicions will arise that it would have been earlier promulgated, were it not encum bered with some insurmountable difficulty, or teeming With some inevitable evil, which would neutralize, or else overbalance its good effects. In making the proposition, thereforefthat in a great variety of cases simple contract debts between forty shillings and one hundred pounds shall not be recoverable by any suit or process whatsoever, I must bespeak patient examination of the observ ations that will be made to support' it; and de precate a hasty condemnation of the plan on the ground of either its powerful and extensive Opera tion, its novelty, or its simplicity.
