this proposition Of Mason's, this act of"Na-
,ional Bankruptcy q Say calls it, has been
frequently resorsed 10 By different Govern
nenss, and slways with disastrous results.
Philip First, Of France, adultsrsted the lrre
Of Charlemasns, which contained IL ounces
Of silver. Phillip mixed 8 ounces Of silver
with alloy, and called the result lirre.
What wAs The consequence Listen to the
historian: "He Phillip was fully persua-
ded thas HE sdultsratsd livre was worth quite
a. much q the licre OF HE predecessors
Yet it w,s reilly worth one.third less than
the lire Of Charlemasne. A livre in cein
would purcAass but two-thirds Of what it
had done before, Abundance OF injustice
was coupmitssd and authorised but after all,
il Va iuposuible 70 make eight ounces Of
Ane soId eoual totwelve." We shall not nm
defsaks % cite from historians and political
economists the instances Of sach deteriora-
zion Of he coin 81 different nations and the
evil consequences that invariably flow from
them.
