Gmaxt's Jdent Guant’s views with referenco to the withdrawal of tho bayonot and gunbont silver dollar and make it o logal-tender is to tnke the risk of running silver dollars to n lower value than over was ronshad by greon- Dacks, Could there bo greator ignoranco or groator misvepresentation? Thero iu n wido differenco botwoen an irredeemable paper monoy and money mado of silver. Tho pa- por in the paper dollar has no intrinsio valuo; the valua of tha papor dollar deponds upon the probabilities of its redemption and tho amount of coln that can be obtained for it from speenlators. Tho . silver dollar hns, on the contrary, an intrin. sio valuo. For several hundred yeoars tho relative valuo of sflver and gold has fluctuated between 154 to 16 parls of silver to 1 part of gold. Until within loss than two yenra the valuo of silver has ruled at 153 parts to 1 part of gold. The Americin dollar ' weighed 412 grains, nine-tenths of which was pure silver, which weight for hulf o contury was in proportion of 16 parts to 1 part of gold, making the silver dollar of greater valuo than the gold dollar, One of the usos of silver is for coinngo in monoy. ‘Tho goneral discontinunnce of silver ne money would, by abolishing its grontest uso, reduce the demand for the metal, and thero- by reduco the valno of the metal. If tho use of gold for colnage wns universally dis- continued, the liko abolition of its use and reduced demnnd for it would in like manner enuso o fall in ita value. Tho two metals having in nll agos furnishod tho world with material for its money, they have maintained subatautially an unshaken relative or pro- ‘portionato value. : Tho abolition of tho silver dollar, and tho adoption . of au exclusive gold currency by the United States in 1873, and the adoption of a moasuro for the domonotization of sil- ver and the adoption of gold by Germany, forcod tho Latin nations to limit, temporari- 1y, their silver colunge; andall theso circnm. About thirty.three milliona of-fractional silver has gono into ciroulation, takidg the placd of tho dirty, ragged, grensy little froctional shinplasters, It isa legal-tendor for debts of 5. The Custom-House must tako it for tariff ducs for sums not exceed- ing that amount. Tho Government redeoms small bond.coupons with silver. It is very popular chango, nnd people aro glad that clear, bright coins have supersoded the shin- plastors; bat they eau't understand why no ailver monoy larger than a i0-cont pleco is coined ; why silveris not a legal-tender for debts over ®3: why tho dobt.paying povwer ia restricted, and who instructed Con- gress to restrict it. ‘These arc points that hava not been explained to the publio satise faction.
