PRICE OF BAR silver.

Lzndon has been in the habit Of max.
ing the price Of silver bullion for the
world Rscsntly the quotation has come
through At IS l0-l6d per ounce s5 fine,
which ID the English standard Of ineness-
This il probably the lowest price since
the great collapse in this metal in 1876
Prior 70 1874. the average price Of silver
had been equal TO or above the par Of
gold for many years. Between 1881.
when the least amount Of silver would
purchase an ounce Of gold, and 1876,
when the average showed the greatest
amount necessary, the purchasing power
Of the metal deprecated $40 per cent.
The widest divergence in the purchasing
power is brought out by comparing the
price IN 1881 with the lowest weekly
average in the second week Of July, 1876.
The average for that week WAS 46z per
ounce s25 fine, showing that it required
2o.l7 ounces pure silver to purchase an
ounce Of pure gold. Between these two
dates the purchasing power Of silver, as
measured Of course by the gold standard.
declined 1891 per cent. The loves.
price in 1876 was 46Ad. There was a
sharp reaction from that low figure. As we
hnd that in less than six months there.
after, say December IA, 1876, the Lon.
don price for fine silver was 5sid. This
Is the highest price at which fine silver
has sold since the collapse in July Of the
same year.
