- On Colonies and Colonization, 1848.
- If it is desirable, as no one will deny it to be, that the planting of colonies should be conducted, not with an exclusive view to the private interests of the first founders, but with a deliberate regard to the permanent welfare of the nations afterwards to arise from these small beginnings; such regard can only be secured by placing the enterprise, from its commencement, under regulations constructed with the foresight and enlarged views of philosophical legislators; and the government alone has power either to frame such regulations, or to enforce their observance.
- Before the adoption of the Wakefield system, the early years of all new colonies were full of hardship and difficulty: the last colony founded on the old principle, the Swan River settlement, being one of the most characteristic instances. ...
- It would therefore be worth while, to the mother country, to accelerate the early stages of this progression, by loans to the colonies for the purpose of emigration, repayable from the fund formed by the sales of land. ...
- There is hence the strongest obligation on the government of a country like our own, with a crowded population, and unoccupied continents under its command, to build, as it were, and keep open, in concert with the colonial governments, a bridge from the mother country to those continents, by establishing the self-supporting system of colonization on such a scale, that as great an amount of emigration as the colonies can at the time accommodate, may at all times be able to take place without cost to the emigrants themselves. ...
- To this has been added a large amount of voluntary emigration to the seats of the gold discoveries, which has partly supplied the wants of our most distant colonies, where, both for local and national interests, it was most of all required. ...

- At certain times, and in certain colonies, however, specific commodities came to be so widely used in transactions that they might appropriately be termed money. ...
- At various times and places in the colonies, such items as tobacco, rice, sugar, beaver skins, wampum, and country pay all served as money. ... Wampum and beaver skins were commonly used as money in the northern colonies, in the early stages of settlement, when the fur trade and Indian trade were still mainstays of the local economy (Nettels, 1928, 1934; Fernow, 1893; Massey, 1976; Brock, 1975, pp. ...
- By the middle of the eighteenth century, commodity money had essentially disappeared in northern port cities, but still lingered in the hinterlands and plantation colonies. ...
- The old tenor bills of all four colonies passed interchangeably and at par with one another throughout New England.
- As if this were not complicated enough, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Connecticut all created new tenor emission of their own, and the factors used to convert these new tenor bills into old tenor terms varied across colonies (Davis, 1970; Brock, 1975; McCusker, pp. ...
- Maryland’s paper money - unlike that of other colonies - gave the possessor an explicit legal claim on a valuable asset. ...
- Over time, the rest of the colonies followed suit. ... The common denominator here is wartime finance, and it is worthwhile to recognize that the vast majority of the bills of credit issued in the colonies were issued during wartime to pay for pressing military expenditures. ...
- Because bills were disproportionally emitted for wartime finance, it is not surprising that the colonies whose currencies depreciated due to over-issue were those who shared a border with a hostile neighbor – the New England colonies, bordering French Canada, and the Carolinas bordering Spanish Florida. 13 The colonies from New York to Virginia were buffered by their neighbors, and therefore issued no more than modest amounts of paper money until they were drawn into the French and Indian war, by which time their economies were large enough to temporarily absorb the issues.
- While not quite so integrated a currency area as New England, the colonies of New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware each had bills of credit circulating within its neighbors’ borders (McCusker, 1978, pp. ... Where the currencies of neighboring colonies were of equal value, as was the case in New England between 1710 and 1750, bills of credit of neighboring colonies could be credited and debited in book accounts at face value. ...
- Specie coins were the other kind of cash that commonly circulated in the colonies. The gold and silver coins circulating in the colonies were generally of Spanish or Portuguese origin. ...
