1t is generally believed that when gold is
worth fifty per cent. premium 4 paper
dollar is only worth fifty cents, ana that its
depreciation Is uniformly the saule as the

discount. Fifty per cent. taken from an ar

that amount. If we add fifty per cent. to
10 it makes Is, or one-third more five de-
duct so per cent. it reduces it to ), or one

Five gold dollars at l60 are equal TO eighs
paper dollars at 100 hence each paper dol
