THE NATIONS MONEY.

Thirty Dollars Each For Every Man, Woman
and Child.
The money, coin and paper, in this
country aggregates, at this time. some
thing over $4,000. 900, 900, or over $50
each for every man, woman and child.
But 1t is not ell In circulation. More
than one-third of it-one-half of all the
gold and three-fourths of all the silver
coin is in the vaults of the Treasury at
Washington, held as security for the
outstanding paper currency
OF the total so, 600, 600, 600, a trifie
more than half is gold and silver money,
end something less than half is paper.
OF the total coin, about two-thirds ID
gold and one third silver. OF the paper
money, about one-third is greenbacks,
one-fourth silver certificates, one-sixth
gold certificates, one-fifth in notes Of
the National banks, and the remainder
in various other forms. There is more
gold In circulation than any one kind Of
paper money, but only one-fourth as
much gold as there Is of all kinds of
paper together. OF the paper in circu-
lation the greenback leads then silver
certificates, National bank notes next
and gold certificates least
The money of the country, So, 900. 0O0,-
600, Is an immense sum. Yet it would
not suffice to pay for more than the
property of a single city, New York.
The assessment there, just completed,
is 81, 1893, 900, 007, which, probably, does
not represent more than half the true
valuation of the property in our Amer.
