Money Is the currency Of. the realm

the medium of exchange, aud up to
the middle ages and even incmding
our own early history it consisted Of
coin, circulating notes, or any other
commodity which freely circulated

dium Of exchange, the payment Of
debts and other obligations IL is an
article determined TO be money by rea
son OF the performance by 1t Of certain
functions without regard to its form
or substance. A celebrated Greel<
philosopher said Of 1t, THAT il existed
not by nature, but by law" and from
this none OF ancient or modern times
ever dissented. In connection with
the money question II is a curious fact
that IN London in lsf7 during that
great crisis il was found impossible to
raise any money whatever ON a sum Of
sixty thousand pounds OF silver
Equally curious Is the fact that at a
later period in s0i during similar
crisis in Calcutta, even single rupee
could not be realized on twenty thou
sand pounds Of gold
Silver was first coined in Rome POO

the ages. The above will serve TO give
a glimpse Of the past history of the

ment in this country who hold to the
contention that the United states is
able 10 regulate It's own currency with
out regard TO the cooperation of other
countries, and in this contention they
have some conspicuous examples ia
foreign countries. Edward ! OF Eng.
land, In 1890 decreed that no foreign
coins should te brought into England
