Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ...amusing case is that of John Tyler. Tyler was chairman of the Senate investigating committee of 1834, and, voicing the austere public morality characteristic of Virginia Republicanism since the days of Jefferson, criticised the bank for disseminating pamphlets and congressional reports.1 "Our friend," wrote Webster, "seemed to reserve all his censure for these heads."2 Biddle, therefore, felt quite safe in asking Tyler if he wished his report disseminated. The surprise and disgust of the bank's president may easily be guessed when he discovered that Tyler did wish it to the extent of a thousand copies.' Whatever credit is due Tyler for his political morality, a sense of humor was evidently not his prominent characteristics. That the matter of printing was carried entirely too far will easily be gathered from what has been said, and even the bank's most eager partisans were convinced that this was so. Watmough, who arranged for much of the printing, at last protested. He thought they should cut down the number of congressional speeches published, though he added, with bitter pleasantry, "It is a great assistance to Green, to be sure. He is at best however but a mauvais sujet, and scarcely worth what has already been done for him." The printers, in his opinion, were "pretty much all alike--let them handle the money, au diable, the rest."4 The charge of jobbing in public stocks touched the honor of the president and corporation, and, if proved, established a violation of the law; for the charter declared that the cor 15.

This book was released on 1999-09-30 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An account of the history, structure, and operation of the First and Second Banks of the United States, this study examines how the banks performed as national and central institutions, and what happened to the economy when the charter of the Second Bank was allowed to expire in 1836. Historians have paid little recent attention to the early history of central banking in the United States, and many Americans believe that the Federal Reserve, created in 1913, was our first central bank. The economic crisis during the American Revolution actually led to the founding of a national bank, called the Bank of North America, during the period of Confederation. Although it became a private bank before the Constitution was ratified in 1788, it proved to be such a success that in 1791 Alexander Hamilton, the first Secretary of the Treasury, was able to convince President Washington that a similar bank should be established. While the First Bank of the United States performed well during its tenure, its charter was allowed to lapse in 1811. A Second Bank of the United States was created five years later in 1816, and it prospered under the leadership of its third president, Nicholas Biddle, from 1823 to 1830, when central banking was practiced. This success ended with the 1828 election of Andrew Jackson, who refused to recharter the bank and withdrew the government's funds in 1833. Severely weakened, the Bank continued, but its charter finally expired in 1836, much to Biddle's dismay.

Download or read book Money in Historical Perspective written by Anna J. Schwartz and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-02-15 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern monetary economics has been significantly influenced by the knowledge and insight brought to the field by the work of Anna J. Schwartz, an economist whose career has spanned almost half a century. Her contributions evidence a broad expertise in international history and policy, and an ability to apply the results of her careful historical research to current issues and debates. Money in Historical Perspective is a collection of sixteen of her papers selected by Michael D. Bordo and Milton Friedman. Grouped into three sections, the essays constitute a number of Dr. Schwartz's most cited articles on the subject of monetary economics, many of which are no longer readily accessible. In the papers in part I, dating from 1947 to the present, Dr. Schwartz examines money and banking in the United States and the United Kingdom from a historical perspective. Her investigation of the historical evidence linking economic instability to erratic monetary behavior—this behavior itself a product of discretionary monetary policy—has led her to argue for the importance of stable money, and her writings on these issues over the last two decades form part II. The volume concludes with four recent articles on international monetary arrangements, including Dr. Schwartz's well-known work on the gold standard. This volume of classic essays by Anna Schwartz will be a useful addition to the libraries of scholars and students for its exemplary historical research and commentary on monetary systems.

This book was released on 2006-11-02 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how deregulation is transforming the size, structure, and geographic range of U.S. banks, the scope of banking services, and the nature of bank-customer relationships. Over the past two decades the characteristics that had made American banks different from other banks throughout the world--a fragmented geographical structure of the industry, which restricted the scale of banks and their ability to compete with one another, and strict limits on the kinds of products and services commercial banks could offer--virtually have been eliminated. Understanding the origins and persistence of the unique banking regulations that defined U.S. banking for over a century lends an important perspective on the economic and political causes and consequences of the current process of deregulation.

Download or read book The Second Bank of the United States written by Jane Ellen Knodell and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 2016 marks the 200th anniversary of the founding of the Second Bank of the United States (1816-1836). This book is an economic history of an early central bank, the Second Bank of the United States (1816-36). After US President Andrew Jackson vetoed the re-chartering of the Bank in 1832, the US would go without a central bank for the rest of the nineteenth century, unlike Europe and England. This book takes a fresh look at the role and legacy of the Second Bank. The Second Bank of the United States shows how the Bank developed a business model that allowed it to make a competitive profit while providing integrating fiscal services to the national government for free. The model revolved around the strategic use of its unique ability to establish a nationwide system of branches. This book shows how the Bank used its branch network to establish dominance in select money markets: frontier money markets and markets for bills of exchange and specie. These lines of business created synergies with the Bank’s fiscal duties, and profits that helped cover their costs. The Bank’s branch in New Orleans, Louisiana, became its geographic centre of gravity, in contrast with the state-chartered banking system, which was already, by the 1820s, centred around New York. This book is of great interest to those who study banking and American history, as well as economic students who have a great interest in economic history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: President Andrew Jackson fought many battles, but equally important, in the 1830s he campaigned passionately to limit the power of the federal government and that of the central bank. He argued vehemently that the Bank gave privilege and unfair advantage to the elite few at the expense of the public. The events retold in this book foreshadowed some of the conflicts dividing the U.S. today. Questions about how much power the President ought to have and how much the central bank could exercise in controlling the economy riled the nation. The Senate session of the 23rd Congress (often called the “Panic Session”) served as the main arena for two battles: what form the American presidency would take and the economic direction the country would follow. This became the most crucial political debate during the antebellum period, outside of the slavery issue. Offering a deep analysis of the arguments put forth by Jackson’s Senate allies and their opponents, this book fills an important void. These debates are crucial to understanding the formation of the second party system, the evolution of the presidency under Jackson, and the economic direction the country took as it spiraled uncontrollably towards the Civil War. The debates of the session are often condensed down to the words of Senate giants such as Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun, and Daniel Webster, but this book argues that others’ contributions to the session were equally significant. The Bank War altered the economic course the country had followed since its birth, but further, the manner in which Jackson waged the war forever changed the nature and power of the American president, as well as its relationship to the people.
