THE ''s11vER GIu1'' N CAsAnA.-The people
Of Canada are stilt troubled with the "siiyer''
question. The London &c. vi frets says:

's turdened with the shining metal, On which h
must lose eight per cent 1t the least calculation.
The evil, which was tolerated for time has uow
become masnffed into positive nuisance, which
must be gotrid OF. Merchants cannot longer afford
oGo on taking silver at par, which, when banked,
entails a loss Of eight per cent"
The Press thereupon proceeds to aay that the
principal merchants have pledged themselves In
writing to receive and pay American silver at the
discount named. "Al1 chat is required" 1t adds,
is that they ehan be faithful to one another, and
honorab1y adhere to The agreement. Whether
they win do 30, however, seems to be "a matter ol
