TIE New YORK IEhALD says ii appears that the
International Conference lately held in Paris in
favor of monetary unit for all nationB have
agreed upon plan, md that The delegate from,
the United States, AIR RUGdLrs, has forwarded 10
the State Department report Of the proceedings.
Tweuty nations OF Europe and America were rep
resented. Ii is proposed that gold anu silver,
except for change in small amounts. shall be e1-
clusiSey the money of the world That tho five
franc gold piece of France shall be the monetary
nnit With its mutiplcs; that il is 10 bo based upon
and divided by decmals; that all gold coins Of the
same denomination, by whatever nation issued,
must be uniform in weight, diameter and quality,
snd be nine GentlIs fire; and This money is TO be
legal tender in all nations. We have not the full
report, but these are the principal features OF
tine plan. Tho proposed reform will be lcd before
Congress, probably, nc1t session. Now, while we
admit the Inconvenience Of the present system. Of
rather Nant Of system, among commercial ma
tions, and thinE that uniform one 10 desirable,
this country should Ito careful about cni ing into
and bin ling itself to plan like this. 1t mag bo
many ycars before IS. return to spccic payments,
and il i6 possible VIC may yet tlifcorcT that gol is
not tho best money circulating medium. Look
ing at the wealth and wonderful future Of this re-
public it is possible w. may establish, and it may
be to interest to establls an entirely new sys-
tefi, of currency, and that re may cmancpatc
ourselves altogether from Inc old European sys-
tern. We think il would ho prudent not TO enter
into any a!lahcaG OF thp sort proposed nt present.
NO certainly are no. prepared 10 assent to the
proposition, that only gold and silver shall be n
legal tender in all nations.
