Book Description
Excerpt from The Theory and Practice of Banking, Vol. 2 The first volume of this Work was scarcely out of the press, when the crisis which every one conversant with monetary matters knew to be impending, burst with the suddenness and the fury of a tornado, producing a series of Banking catastrophes greater than had ever before happened in the City of London. All the circumstances attending it, however, and the course which the Government found necessary to pursue - for the third time to authorise a suspension of the Bank Act of 1844 - have amply confirmed the soundness and the truth of the doctrines set forth in this Work, The Author may, perhaps, be permitted to direct attention to Chapters XI. and XII. of this Volume, as having an especial interest at the present time. In Chapter NT. several Theories of Currency of great historical importance arc investigated, particularly that of John Law.

Book Description
Excerpt from The History, Principles, and Practice of Banking, Vol. 2 Another consideration is light. It is well known in every London bank, that fewer mistakes are made by the clerks in summer than in winter. Abundance of light prevents mistakes, and saves all the time that would be employed in the discovery of errors. Light is also of great importance to the cashiers in detecting forged signatures and bad or counterfeit money. Thieves are also less likely to attempt their robberies in a light ofice than in a dark one. Faint or illegible handwriting can be more easily read, and hence mistakes are less likely to occur. The clerks, too, perform their duties with more quickness and cheerfulness. The gloominess of an office throws a. Gloom over the mind but light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun. The lightest part of the Office should be devoted to the clerks. We have observed sometimes a violation of this principle. The entrance door has been placed in the middle of the front, with a. Window on each side, and the counter thrown across the room, so that the lightest part of the office has been given to the public. It is better that the entrance be placed at the right or the left corner, and the counter be made to run from the window to the Oppo site wall. The light will thus fall lengthwise on the counter, and the space behind the counter will be occupied by the clerks.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
