weights. Measures and Coins.

Guizot. In his history of representative govern
ment, well remarks that 1.-The age in which we
live has taken too much pains to seek guarantees
III physical force. and has neglected to seek for
them in the power of moral IDEAS" and De
Tocquevillc, pursuing the same thought has said
that Ito constitute society. great many people
should think alike on great many subjects"
The Northwest has adhered to the Union because
its moral ideas conceded with those of the North
east, and differed from those of the South. al
though all its pecunary interests were tied up
with ours; and the northeast was and must ever
continue TO be, its greedy and rapacious tax
master
Now. there subjects that so often
seriously occupy the thoughts, attention and bust
ness habtudcs Of a people, as their weights,
measures and coins; and when these of values
and denominations peculiar to themselves, they
go far to distinguish and mould the people en-
ploying them into distinct nationality. 1t will
be hard to cut off our trade and intercourse with
the North after peace is restored, and runous not
to do so. Changing the language of trade is the
most efficient barrier that has yet been suggested
to prevent a renewal of business and social rela-
tions with that section, which If renewed will
make our hard earned independence mere shad
ow and n name
The adoption AZ decimal system of weights,
measures and coins based upon some fixed, exact
and immutable standard, like that of France,
was recommended To the Macon Commercial
Convention in an essay entitled "Commercial
Enfranchisement of the South" which essay
will be found in the October and November mum
bers of DE Bocs RerieD.
The convention recommended the whole essay
to the attention of Congress-; and Congress will
probably take action on the part relating TO
weights measures and coins, at this or the ensu-
ing session. MANY able pens besides that of the
philosOphic author, have since been employed in
advocacy of this measure, but it is very dry,
reconcile and abstruse subject. though one to
of vital and pressing Importance.
We would add single suggestion to the many
that have been made by others. The proposed
measure would facilitate our trade and intercourse
with France and other Mediterranean nations,
and thus we should acquire thoughts. new
manners and customs and a new and distinct civ
ilization. compounded of many materials and de
rived from many sources, instead of being mere
imitators or copyists of England or New Eng
land.
We would cultivate the most friendly relations
with England, but not with her alone, else We
might become "A mere parasite OF hers instead of
distinct, separate and independent people
