Excerpt from The Panic of 1866 With Its Lessons on the Currency Act Panics, however painful, have their value. Whilst they arouse by their alarms, they excite reflection, and compel those who would otherwise float thoughtlessly down the stream of incessant occupation, to pause and inquire what part of the machinery of our Financial system has given way, and whether some serious modification is not necessary.

The author meticulously analyzes the panic that gripped London, examining the impact on banks, the government, and ordinary citizens.
