A FEW PRESS OPINIONS.

"As a contribution toward the elucidation of the
currency and banking question, the work before us
***The
seems to be of inestimable value.
work has involved an enormous amount of labor and
large pecuniary expense, and it stands out admitted
as the most complete and comprehensive history of
banking that has ever appeared."- The Nation.

"This monumental work is by far the most com-
plete publication of the kind ever issued. There has
been such a flood of publications, many of them filled
with glaring inaccuracies, that it is a pleasure to pick
up a work so replete with real merit."-Chicago
Tribune.

"The undertaking here assumed by the JOURNAL OF COMMERCE AND COMMERCIAL BULLETIN is unique, if not unparalleled, in the reign of monetary science. * * * We may add, therefore, our opinion that this field will not need to be explored again in a very ong time, except for the purpose of working over the wealth of material displayed."-N. Y. Evening Post.

"It is one of the greatest literary undertakings of the time, and the effect of its publication should be to familiarize the general public with the subject of money and the financial methods of the various enlightened nations, * * * It is a peculiarly timely publication."-The Louisville Courier-Journal.
