Excerpt from Historical Sketch of Continental Paper Money IN offering this Pamphlet to'the public, it is thought advi sable to give some account of its origin, and the reason for its re-publication. The Essays (historical Sketch of Paper Money) of which it is the substance, were read in 1843, by the late Samuel Breck, Esq., a well-known citizen of Phila delphia, before the American Philosophical Society, and about the same time he caused it to be printed and circulated among his friends. It was shortly afterwards re-published, with some omissions, in Frazier's Magazine, since which time it is believed never to have appeared in print. This Pamphlet has now become of such rarity that its pur chase is an utter impossibility, while at the same time an almost universal desire to obtain everything connected with the History of Continental Money, has caused considerable inquiry to be made for it.
