Mr.. Preston, in are view Of the none
tary legislation of the country, states
that the real characterization of silver
took place in 1858, when the weight OF
Z per cent. Thus, he says, it was moi
an accident or an oversight; it was ex-
pressly declared in the house Of repre-.
s%entatives that the intention was to
make gold the sole standard of value in
the large transactions, and silver sub.
servient to it for small ones. The act
of 1878, he says, was only nominal.
An Inooherent Monetary System.
In his report the director of the mint
says the result that the currency legis-
lation of the United States for over 1OC
years has been such as to leave an inco.
herent monetary system as inconsistent,
illogical and expensive rs a we'll he
imagined, that inspires little confidence
at home and is not conducive to oul
credit abroad, and its reform is one OF
the most important and urgent political
and financial questions of the hour. He
says that on Jan. l, 1879, the date of the
resumption of specie payments, the only
currency, except coin certificates re.
CURED to be redeemed in gold coin, was
the $346, 6S1 ,016 legal tender notes then
outstanding, which the then secretary
Of the treasury was of the opinion that
a gold reserve of 500, 900, 900 would be
sufficient to maintain, but that there
was now a total Of 1921 ,229, 523 resting
on the basis Of the gold reserve of 500,
600, 900.
