uolltical economists of France Some OF them
b .Eeve that the great production OF gold for
tho loo, ,sgnenn,v years in California and Aus
tral;,7 Is already beginning to lower the value
Of coin; that certain local and temporary causes
have hitherto retarded this decline; but that
the movement is now becoming more rapid,
aud that general aud large rise OF prices, in
great fall in money. The foretaste of this, NJ.
de MornsyI contends, is given by the general
rise 10 the price Of labor and of small farms
which has already taken place 10 France. On
the other hand, such writers as Nj. de Cav
ergne aseribe this advance chiefly to diminish
I'd production. scarcity and taxation; while M;
Bonnet says it is due chiefly to the increase OF
wealth Who shall decide?
