Del5@ The Edinburgh Reuie,c thus describes the
present mode of trading with the Indiaus by the
Hudson Bay Company:
The Indians who are employed in hunting the
fur-bearing animals bring their peltries for sale
No money is employed in the traffic, but sub
stitute for it is invented similar to that which
enabled Homer, who also was unacquainted with
the use of money, to compare the value of the
arms of Glaucus and Diomed, the one being
worth hundred oxen, the other nine The unit
of value, by reference to which the transactions
between the Indians and Company are regulated,
is the beaver. The tariff, according to which
the skins are purchased, is formed on the prin-
ciple of giving for the more valuable skins less,
and for the less valuable more, than they are
worth, The object Of this proceeding seems to
be to protect the more valuable animals from
determination, since, if the Indians were encour-
aged to destroy those that bear the highest price,
it is obvious that the more precious kinds of fur
would become extinct, and the less valuable
kinds would be unduly multiplied. When the
Indian brings his fur for sale, he receives for
each skin a stick for every beaver which it is
worth, and passing over to the other side of the
store, he purchases, with these sticks, blankets,
guns, hatchets, and whatever else he stands in
need of, till all his sticks are exhausted and
then departs for his home
