Among our feudal ancestors, the long time during which estates used to continue in the same family, sufficiently demonstrates the general disposition of people to live within their income.

在我们的封建祖先中，长期由一个家族继承产业，足以说明人们量入为出的普遍倾向。

No doubt the confusion, especially in the old slave States and in the currency, was considerable, but, the general disposition was good, and every one had echoed that famous phrase: " Let us have peace" .

毫无疑问，混乱，尤其是在旧奴隶制国家和货币方面，是相当大的，但是，普遍的态度是好的，每个人都回应了那句名言：“让我们拥有和平”。

It is not the multitude of alehouses, to give the must suspicious example, that occasions a general disposition to drunkenness among the common people; but that disposition, arising from other causes, necessarily gives employment to a multitude of alehouses.

举个值得怀疑的例子，并不是酒馆众多，而是引起普通民众普遍酗酒的倾向；但是，由于其他原因而产生的这种倾向，必然会为大量的酒馆提供就业机会。
