Synopsis
Excerpt from History of Prices, Vol. 5 of 2: And of the State of the Circulation, During the Nine Years 1848 1856; Forming the Fifth and Sixth Volumes of the History of Prices From 1792 to the Present Time In the preceding Volume of this work the subject treated of ranged itself under Three Divisions: - (i.) The Prices of Corn and the circumstances connected with them in the relation of cause and effect; - (ii.) The Prices of Produce other than Corn; - (iii.) The state of the Circulation, under which head was comprised a review of the whole of the Currency question. And when, by the proffered assistance of my friend Mr. Newmarch, I was induced to undertake a Continuation and Completion of the Work, bringing it down to the most recent period, I contemplated no greater amount of matter than could conveniently he confined to a narrative and discussion ranging under the same three Divisions; and the whole to he comprised within a single volume of moderate size.

The topic of Railways was only incidentally noticed in my Fourth Volume, under the second head, with reference to the prices of the Shares and Stocks in that field of enterprise, and to the degree in which the speculations in that class of securities, and the absorption of Capital in them, had contri buted to the commercial distress in 1847 But the system was then only in the course of development. It has since attained a settled form, with gigantic proportions; and constituting, as it does, so large a part in the means of land conveyance throughout the kingdom and materially affecting Prices in various ways, it appears to me to be entitled to distinct consideration under a separate head, com prising a historical sketch of the rise and progress of the system to its present state, with an account of the uctuations which the prices of the stocks and shares of the principal lines have undergone.
