days of \Vas'iiii<;toii and .leffersoii?suttl
our ({evolutionary forofalhers, who hail
a hatred of 'airland and intimate
knowledge of her designs on this country.
"Tiiey had fought eitjiii Ion:; years for

in this country, and when thc.v
had mci; the last redcoat iea\eoiU shores
they settled down to establish a permanent
"oveMinieiit. and attaaiK the iirst.
thintfs they did was to make .'571 J grains
of silver lite unit of vtilues. That much
silver to constitute a dollar; and each
' ciollar was a unit. They then provideil
for ail otIter money to lie counted from
I ticis unit of a silver clolhtr. Hence
| dimes, tjuarlei's and half-dollars were,
j exactly fractional parts of the dollar ?o
(told wan made i:ione\fc*Pui it.-evt.'...*. . ? ?

j dollars. The ratio between silver anil
I gold was i i \ ed at 1*> to I. rail afterwards
, at 1 ?*. to I. s,? that in muting gold coins
j their relative weight was regulated by
] this ratio.
