more recently the Papal States. adopted
the French system, they retained The oil
name Of livre-in Italian, Iva, ana n1ldo
that the unit of currency, so hat the
franc of France and the Iva OF Italy
are of exactly the same value. The
Napoleon" or "Louis'' Of the French is
simply a conventional name given by the
French to q twenty franc piece in The
same manner as the Americans call a
ten dollar piece ar "ea9te," md rs tho
Prussians havs a 'Frederick." The En-
gIish guinea derived its name from the fact
that the gold from which tho frat gnincas
wore made came from the Guinea Coast.
The English tarthing is so-called from its
being the fourth OF q penny =; the deri-
walton of the Spanish cwart0 is the same,
the cwarto being the quarter of a real OF
royal piece. The names of the South
American coins are mostly Of Spanish or
Portuguese origin +; the peso, or Bern, is
a piece that weighs, from "pesAr," to
weigh; the centaro is the hnrdfrdth
part of the unit Of currency, and the
rel Of Brazil is a royal piece. From
the above-mcntioned facts it will be secu
that the tendency Of all nations has been
to adopt the coins Of olhry nations wit
ness the grout, which travelled from Italy
to England, France ard Germany. Some,
times the value was altered, for Instance
there is O form Ia Bavaria worth forty
American cents, aud divided iutO si1ty
kreutz4rs, while In Austria there is one
Of the value Of fifty American cents, dj-
viled into one hundred krcutzers. To
give an idea Of the difficulties o mer-
chant doing business in Germany has
TO encounter, it must DO remembered
that there are FIVE distinct cOioages in
use in that country, namely :--PfassiA
and Saxony who use th4ier3, worth
twenty-five cents-divided into thirty
groschcn Hamburg, with marks Of thirty
cents, divided into sixteen shilliDgs d emen
with its groten, and Austria and Blva-
ria before mentions ed. In Italy tho same
state Of things existed until tho estah-
lishment of the Italian Kingdom in 1850.
Several years ngo the French Government
proposed to the States whose coinag4
was the came as bers~-namaly, to b.
GUM, Switzerland, and %Itaiy-tbat the
coins Of one should pass without dimin-
ution of value in the territory Of each OF
the others. This proposal was immcji-
ately accepted by these countries, aud by
Rome some time after. Il Is this a-
rangement, called in Europe "La Con.
