Excerpt from A Third Letter to the Editor of the Edinburgh Weekly Journal, From Malachi Malagrowther, Esq.: On the Proposed Change of Currency, and Other Late Alterations, as They Affect, or Are Intended to Affect, the Kingdom of Scotland
This third set of Mr Baxter's last words is rather a trial on your patience, considering how much Balaam (speaking technically) I have edged out of your valuable paper; how I have trodden on the toes of your Domestic Intelli gence, and pushed up to the wall even your Poli tical Debates, until you have almost lost your honoured title of the edinburgh journal in that of malachi's chronicle.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, penned by a Scottish economist, is a series of open letters from a character called Malachi Malagrowther to a newspaper editor. It explores the heated debate surrounding a proposed change to Scotland's currency system with fascinating depth and wit. The author argues that the proposed change from paper to gold currency would have a hugely detrimental effect on Scotland's industries, especially the fisheries, that had thrived in recent years. Malagrowther's arguments are grounded in economic principles and a deep understanding of Scotland's unique circumstances, drawing on historical and literary references to support his case. The book provides a valuable insight into the economic and political tensions of the time, offering a lively and thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of currency and its impact on a nation's prosperity.
