JAMES See also:DENHAM, See also:BART . (1712-1780), See also:English economist, was the only son of Sir James Steuart, See also:solicitor-See also:general for See also:Scotland under See also:Queen See also:Anne and See also:George I., and was See also:born at See also:Edinburgh on the 21St of See also:October 1712. After passing through the university of Edinburgh he was admitted to the Scottish See also:bar at the See also:age of twenty-four. He then spent some years on the See also:Continent, and while in See also:Rome entered into relations with the Pretender. He was in Edinburgh in 1745, and so compromised himself that, after the See also:battle of See also:Culloden, he found it necessary to return to the Continent where he remained until 1763. It was not indeed until 1771 he was fully pardoned for any complicity he may have had in the See also:rebellion. He died at his See also:family seat, Coltness, in See also:Lanarkshire, on the 26th of See also:November 1780. In 1767 was published Steuart's Inquiry into the Principles of See also:Political See also:Economy. It was the most See also:complete and systematic survey of the See also:science from the point of view of moderate mercantilism which had appeared in See also:England. But the See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)
- TIME, MEASUREMENT OF

Smith never quotes or mentions Steuart's See also:book; being acquainted with Steuart, whose conversation he said was better than his book, he probably wished to keep clear of controversy with him. See also:German economists have examined Steuart's See also:treatise more carefully than English writers; and they have recognized its high merits, especially in relation to the theory of value and the subject of See also:population. They have also pointed out that, in the spirit of the best See also:modern See also:research, he has dwelt on the See also:special characters which distinguish the economies proper to different nations and different grades in social progress.
The See also:Works, Political, Metaphysical and See also:Chronological, of the See also:late Sir James Steuart of Coltness, Bart., now first collected, with Anecdotes of the Author, by his Son, General Sir James Denham Steuart, were published in 6 vols. 8vo in 18o5. Besides the Inquiry they include—A Dissertation upon the See also:Doctrine and Principles of See also:Money applied to the German See also:Coin (1758), A pologie du sentiment de M. le See also:Chevalier See also:Newton sur l'ancienne chronologie See also:des Grecs (4to, See also:Frankfort-on-the-See also:Main, 1757), The Principles of Money applied to the See also:Present See also:State of See also:Bengal, published at the See also:request of the See also:East See also:India See also:Company (4to, 1772), A Dissertation on the Policy of See also:Grain (1783), See also:Plan for Introducing Uniformity in Weights and See also:Measures within the Limits of the See also:British See also:Empire (1790), Observations on See also:Beattie's See also:Essay on Truth, A Dissertation concerning the See also:Motive of Obedience to the See also:Law of See also:God, and other See also:treatises.
