This pamphlet was sent to Jefferson by William Short, for whom it was obtained by Louis Ramond.

On December 23, 1790, Short, writing from Amsterdam to Ramond in Paris, mentioned:

“I observe the Bishop of Autun quoted lately le savant ouvrage de M. Mirabeau sur les monnoies. I will thank you to sent it together with the Bishop’s memoire which he apparently wished to be presented to Mr. Jefferson. I am waiting with a good deal of impatience for the pamphlets which I asked the favor of you to send me. . .” Ramond replied from Paris on December 31: “J’enverrai ces jours cy en amérique les livres dont vous me chargez de faire envoyer à M. Jefferson.”
