"Discussion of panics and their natures, with emphasis on causes and consequences." -The New York Stock Exchange (2017)"These journalists explained...the distinction between a Panic and a Revulsion." -The Many Panics of 1837 (2013)To prevent the recurrence of periods of financial panic and disaster, it is above all other things necessary that the causes of financial revulsions should be understood, and their incidents noted. In 1857, members of the New York Press published a short book with the object of aiding the public in coming to correct conclusions on this momentous subject. The book, "A Brief Popular Account of All the Financial Panics..." consists, first, of the FACTS of the different periods of revulsion in our history, compiled from the records of those periods. Secondly, it presents a selection of the OPINIONS of eminent individuals respecting the causes of revulsion.The book concludes with the suggestion that "men must learn that fortunes are the reward of a life of economy, thrift, and industry, and that small and certain profits are better than speculations, usurious bargains, and stock gambling. Move out of the big houses; sell the lace, satin, and damask, which you have purchased with money that should be invested in your business; discharge the coachman and unnecessary houseservants; pay your debts; keep within the limit of legitimate business, and we shall hear of no revulsions, nor panics that you cannot meet, without fear and without reproach."
