WEALTH IN INDIA.
Where Gold and silver Bullion Goes to
and Never Comes Back

Where Gold and silver Bullion Goes to
and Never Comes Back
It is often asked: What has become
of the huge amount Of bullion that
India has absorbed in recent years?
She has received on balance some
$3.50, 100000 of silver and gold in the
last 40 wears. What has become of it
all? Many writer's in England hold
that this is a great proof of wealth. 1t
is not so regarded in India; it is ex-
tremely difficult to say what becomes
of the money; no one could give me
satisfactory answer; it is apparently
diffused over that vast population,
either in the form of coin or ornaments;
it shows little visible sign of existence;
probably much of it is boarded. There
still remains in India the feeling OF
mistrust, burned into the mind OF the
people through ages of pillage and an
archy. No property is considered by
the villagers quite secure unless 1t
can be hidden. Banks and bank notes
are very little used; the rupee has to
perform the ordinary exchanges OF
25O,0OO,O0O people, and every thing
that can be spared is put upon the
women in the shape of rings, bracelets,
anklets and other ornaments. Ut late
years considerable part OF the bullion
imported fully one-third-is in gold.
and it is said that much OF this goes
into the native states, where the Rajahs
and rich natives are fond of display. l
doubt whether any safe conclusion can
be drawn as to the wealth and prosper
itv of the masses of the people merely
on account Of this absorption of bull
lion; still, it is undoubted that India
has greatly replenished her currency
as compared with the early part Of the
century, when it was deplorably scanty,
and when the rudest means had TO be
adopted for the purpose of exchange
