To the several Legislatures of the American States, therefore, is now sounded the loudest call, which the voice of true self love and self defence can utter, immediately to exert themselves to relieve the inhabitants of that plea for high prices, the undue quantity of money, by stopping the circula- tion of their States money, by levying large taxes, and assessing them with such equality as to admit of the highest taxes practicable. To the inhabit- ants of these States, this voice clearly announces the necessity of the above measure and of a regulation of prices by law. Why do we complain of a partial infringement of liberty manifestly tending to the preservation of the whole ? Must the lunatick run uncontrouled to the destruction of himself and neighbours merely because he is under the operation of medicines which may in time work his cure ? and indeed without the use of those medicines will the confinement cure him ? Must we be suffered to continue the exac- tion of such high prices to the destruction of the common cause, and of ourselves with it, merely because the reduction of the quantity of our cur-

rency may in time redress the evil; and because any other method may be complained of as an infringement of liberty ? Is there any alternative but the existence and increase of those evils before recited, on the one hand, or the regulation of prices by law on the other, till they become regulated by the reduction of quantity of the currency ? Will the present inhabitants of this earth, or generation yet unborn, by any representations be persuaded to believe that a person or people are duly penetrated with the importance of their liberties, who will not comply with and exert themselves to support such a system of expedience as required by Congress? The same Commission- ers therefore, being deeply imprest with the importance and wisdom of said resolves of Congress and, taken collectively and cooperating together, of their efficacy to produce the desired end, and having the firmest confidence in the several legislatures represented in this Convention, that they will forthwith without pretentions or delays whatsoever stop the currency of all the bills of credit, by them emitted, small change under a dollar only ex- cepted, and call them in by loans or taxes, and emitting no more bills on their own credit, small change excepted, exert themselves to support the war by taxes and loans, and that the good people, the inhabitants of these States, will remember their first love for liberty, and their solemn fervent voluntary engagements to support the same with life and fortune, and that they will exert themselves, that this whole system of regulation shall be carried into execution to the support of the cause, have agreed to the follow- ing rates of prices to the articles hereafter mentioned.
.
The Commissioners, very desirous of accommodating this regulation as much as may be to the conveniencies of immediate practice, have stated these prices much higher than any one will suppose they ought to be; they have endeavoured to avoid too great a revulsion, expecting when the judi- tious and spirited exertions of the several legislatures shall have reduced the quantity of the circulating medium, that there will not only be no occation for this regulation, but that the prices will naturally fall from the high rates at which we have stated them, to their original standard.
From this regulation certain articles of foreign production are excepted, being in the opinion of the Commissioners equally necessary for the army and inhabitants of these States as military stores, and the charge and risk of importing them being so great, various and uncertain - hoping their prices will be so far governed by the estimate of other articles as to preserve a due proportion.
Therefore, resolved, FIRSTLY, That the various kinds of labour of farmers, mechanicks and others be set and affixed at rates not exceeding seventy five per cent. advance from what their respective labour was in the same places in the several States aforesaid through the various seasons of the year 1774.
SECOND, That the price of teaming and all kinds of land transportation shall not exceed the rate of five twelveths of a continental dollar for the carriage of twenty hundred neat weight per mile, including all expences attending the same,
THIRD, That all kinds of American manufactures and internal produce, not particularly mentioned and regulated by this Convention, be estimated at rates not exceeding 75 per cent. advance from the prices they were usually sold at in the several parts of these respective States aforesaid in the year 1774, excepting only salt, cordwood, charcoal, mutton, lamb, veal, small meats, and poultry of all kinds, roots and vegetables ; the price of which
616

may better be regulated by the respective Legislatures, if they shall judge it expedient, than by this Convention,
FOURTHLY, That the price of hemp, flax, sheeps wool, all kinds of woollen and'linen clothes, hosiery of all kinds, felt hats, wire and wool cards, manu- factured in America, shall not exceed the rate of cent per cent, advance from the price they bore in the several parts of the States aforesaid in the year 1774.
FIFTHLY, That the price of all kinds of European goods, wares and mer- chandize imported from foreign parts, or brought into the States by capture, or otherwise, shall not exceed the rates of one continental dollar for each shilling sterling prime cost of such goods in Europe, exclusive of all other charges, when sold from the importer or captor, excepting only the follow- ing articles, viz : all kinds of woollen and linen goods and checks suitable for the army, drugs and medicine, duck of all kinds, cordage, tin plates, copperas. files, alum, brimstone, felt hats, nails, window glass, salt, steel, wire, wool and cotton cards, and naval and military stores.
SIXTHLY, That all woollen cloth, blankets, linning, shoes, stockings, hats and other articles of cloathing suitable for the army, heretofore imported, which are or shall be seized and taken by order of authority for the use of the army, shall be estimated at the above rate with the addition of the stated allowance for land carriage (if any there be) to the place where taken.
SEVENTHLY, That the price of the following articles at the first port of delivery, or place of manufacture within these States, shall not exceed the rates to them affixed respectively. Good West India rum three dollars pr gallon by wholesale. Good merchantable N. E. rum two dollars pr gallon by do. Best muscovado sugars thirty three dollars and one third of a dollar pr hundred gross wt, and all other sugars in usual proportion according to quality. Best molasses one dollar and half pr gallon by wholesale. Coffee not to exceed three fourths of a dollar per lb. by the hundred. Good mer- chantable Geneva not to exceed two dollars per gallon. Good merchant- able brandy two dollars per gallon. Good merchantable whiskey one dollar and one sixth per gallon. All other distill'd spirits not herein enumer- ated not exceeding two dollars pr gallon.
EIGHTHLY. That no trader, retailer or vender of foreign goods, wares or merchandize, shall be allowed more than at the rate of 25 per cent. advance upon the price such goods, wares, or merchandize are or shall be first sold for by the importer or captor, agreeable to this regulation, with the addition only of the cost and charge of transportation by land at the rate of five twelveths of a dollar p' mile for transporting twenty hundred neat wt, from the first port of delivery to the place where the same shall be sold and delivered by retail.
NINTHLY, That innholders be not allowed more than 50 per cent. advance on the wholesale price of all liquors, or other foreign articles herein stated, and by them sold in small quantities, allowing as aforesaid for charges of transportation ; and for all other articles of entertainment, refreshment, and forage, not to exceed 75 per cent. advance on the prices the same were at in the same place in the year 1774.
TENTIILY, That the articles enumerated in the following table shall not be sold or disposed of at higher prices in the respective States and places therein named, than at the rate set down and affixed to such articles, respectively, with the addition only for the stated allowance for land car- riage, if any there shall be. The said sums being estimated in lawful money, at six shillings pr dollar.

[1778.
Resolved, That it be recommended to the several Legislatures of the- States, that they cause the laws they may enact to carry these resolves into execution to be in force from and after the 20th of March next, with such penalties annexed as they may judge effectual.
The committee appointed to prepare a letter to the Honoble Continental Congress reported a draught which, being read and amended, was approved and ordered to be signed by the President, and is as follows, (viz :)
NEW HAVEN, Jany 30th, 1778.
Sir-The Commissioners appointed by the several States of New Hamp- shire, Massachusetts Bay, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Con- necticut, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, in pursuance of a reso- lution of the Honble Congress of the 22ª November last, have convened at New Haven in Connecticut, and proceeded upon the business assigned them of regulating the price of labour &c. We now enclose a copy of our proceedings.
The Congress must be sensible that it is almost impossible, to fix the price of labour, produce and foreign commodities, in such a manner as to give satisfaction to the many persons interested; hence must arise great . jealousies, disputes, and contentions, and there will be great danger that the end and design of such a measure will be frustrated, unless the other meas- ures recommended by Congress are adopted.
We are, therefore, sincerely glad that Congress have accompanied the resolution above referred to, with sundry others which, if complied with, must produce the happiest effects; particularly that Congress have thought it necessary that the quantity of money in circulation should be reduced, and for this purpose have recommended to the United States to effect this salutary and necessary measure by taxation, by refraining from any further emissions of bills of credit, and calling in by loan or taxes and cancelling the paper money they have already emitted. Permit us to express our senti- ments on this occation, that unless their three last measures are complied with, and vigorously carried into execution, the regulation of the prices of labour, produce and merchandize will be fruitless; it will be to no purpose ; in short, it will be impossible to carry it into execution, no truth being more evident, as tlre Congress justly observes, than that where the quantity of money of any denomination exceeds what is useful for a medium of com- merce, its comparative value must be proportionably reduced, consequently the price of goods must proportionably rise; and in case government, under such circumstances, and when the medium of trade is in such a fluctuating situation, should without taking any other measures, to give stability to the medium, fix the prices of goods, the people would justly complain; as in effect it would be obliging them to sell their produce and merchandize for less than the real value. Our proceeding, therefore, in regulating prices are founded on a full dependence that the other measures aforesaid will be immediately complied with by the several States; and we beg leave to submit it to the consideration of Congress, whether it will not be necessary for this purpose to renew and enforce their recommendations to the United States, to exert themselves immediately to stop the currency of all the paper bills emitted by them respectively, and which are not upon interest, and to redeem them by giving treasurers notes upon interest, and by taxes, to refrain from making any further emissions, and by taxation to reduce the

1778.]
quantity of continental bills as fast as possible. We beg leave to observe that in the course of our deliberation we have found ourselves under the necessity of deviating from the letter of the fifth resolve of Congress of the 22ª November last, by excepting out of the regulation certain articles of foreign produce. Our reasons are as follows: The charge and risk of im- porting them is so great, various and uncertain, as to render it very difficult; and tho' it appeared to Congress that military stores only should be excepted, yet many of these articles we have excepted, being absolutely necessary for the army, such indeed as the army cannot possibly do without, and as some few others of them are so necessary for the good people of these States that, in order the better to reconcile them to the regulation we have recommended, we thought it indispensably necessary that every encouragement should be given, and every impediment to the importation of them removed, and we hope it will meet with your approbation.
Permit us to mention that the Convention have been informed of some abuses in the departments of commissary, quarter-master and forage-master: many deputies being dispersed throughout the country, it has been suggested that they are idly interfering with each other in purchases and bidding on the other, and by no means so industrious and careful in securing and saving from waste the articles purchased as they ought to be.
Before we conclude, we beg leave to mention that the public have never yet been notified when the continental bills are to be redeemed, except the two first emissions, their being at an uncertainty about this matter has been complained of as having a tendency to lessen the credit of the bills, whereas if they were to be ascertained when they were to be redeemed, especially if it was at a short period, it would give them a confidence in the money and greatly tend to establish the currency.

I am your most Obedt. Hum! Servt,

Honoble Thomas Cushing, Esq', reported a draught of a letter to the State of Delaware, which was read, approved and ordered to be signed by him as President, and is as follows, viz :
NEW HAVEN, JANY 31ST, 1778.
Sir-The Commissioners appointed by the several States of New Hamp- shire, Massachusetts Bay, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Connec- ticut, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, in Convention assembled at this place, in pursuance of a recommendation of the Honoble Congress, have attended to the business assigned them. They are sorry that they have not been so happy as to have the assistance of Commissioners from your State. Your former exertions in the cause of America leaves no room to doubt of your readiness to cooperate with the rest of the United States, in every
620

measure necessary for the preservation of their rights and liberties. And they presume that the embarrassed state of your government is the only reason that they have not been favoured with their presence. The Commis- sioners have directed me to transmit you a copy of their proceedings which I now enclose. They have omitted to regulate the prices of labour, &c., for your State, but doubt not from your zealous attachment to the common cause, that similar measures will be immediately adopted by you.
I am with sentiment of respect your most humble servant.

Met according to adjournment.
Passed the following resolve, viz :
Whereas it may be greatly subservient to the spirited and effectual exe- cution of this plan of regulation of prices, that each State represented in this Convention should be assured that the others of them had stopped the circulation of the bills emitted on their respective credits, and had resolved to carry all the other requisitions of Congress expressed in their resolve of November 22d into execution,
Therefore resolved, That the said States be desired, as soon as may be after the receipt of this report, to write circular letters to the other States, giving an account of their resolutions and proceedings thereon.
Signed by order of the Convention,
THOMAS CUSHING, President.
