mendcd, in resolution transmitted 10 Congress-
that the weight of the silver dollar should be maze
precisely equal TO that of the five francs silver com
of Europe, in place of the dollar Of 3S1 grams
which was provided for in the bill under dis
cusSon in Congress- Nj. +. Il. Eliot
in ms printed letter Of June 10. 1870,
had previously proposed that dollar
equal to the pillared SpauishMexican piastre CON
tanning twenty-five grammes of pure silver sho"lu
he substituted and that the subsidiary coin shoulu
I've subdivisions of the French silver coin OF five
francs 1t will be seen that the proposition OF tne
Chamber of Commerce was TO substitute a dollar
piece exactly equal to the five francs piece, with
subsidiary coins winch should be fractional parts
OF this dollar. This proposition differed from that
of Mr. Elliot in regard to the silver dollar alone,
The National Board of Trade, which assembled in
the CITY of New-York Oh the 10Th of October, 1S|2,
only six months previous TO the passage OF the
Coinage Act OF 1873, after examination Of the SUD
ect, concurred unanimously in the recommendation
of the Chamber of Commerce. 4 copy of the rcsolu-
ton of the Board was duly communicated To TIE
Chairman of the Finance Committee Of the Senate
Of the United States All Of their proceedings were
published in The B0nkerS Magazine and undoubtedly
IN the daily newspapers of the time. 3,

amendment proposed by the Chamber OF Commerce
and the National Board of Trade, was printed for
the information Of the members of the Chamner
and separate copies Of this statement were
sent to each meubor Of both Houses of Congress,
who consequently must have iegslated on the bill
with full knowledge and appreciation OF all the oD-
iccts aimed at and contemplated. Tire proceedings
of the National Board of Trade and of the Chamber
of Commerce were undoubtedly printed IN the
New-York papers. >.
re the newspapers of the country did not discuss
this provision of the bill in editorial articles, ii was
certainly not because they were not informed OF the
provisions OF tie bill but for the reason stated on
par,, 81 of the report of the Controller of TIE Car
renew for 1876 namely: "That usage had eSt1b-
liShed the gold dollar the unit, the silver dollar
on account of ITS greater relative value having,
with the Mexican dollar and pStarccn, Withdrawn
from the circulation of the country. The COINAGE
Act Of 1873, and the Revised Statutes OF 1874,
simply registered in the form of statute what had
been really the unwrtten law of the land for forty
years"
