currency.

From the point of view of public convenience

it has been said that as a large supply of dollars

already exists, it would be simpler to extend their

use than to adopt a tael currency. But it must be

borne in mind that in every place where dollars are

used it is always in combination with sycee: while

in all the places where sycee is used it by no means

follows that dollars are also current.

Chinese dollars were originally coined in order

to oppose the invasion of the Mexican dollar, and it

seems to us that if a national currency is specially

established, everyone will have perfect confidence

therein.

As regards the objection that the higher denom-

ination will tend to raise the cost of living, while

a smaller denomination will tend to economy in

prices, it must not be forgotten that besides the

unit of value there must be fractional currency,

and

that a 5-mace piece will prove more convenient than

one of 7 mace.

Moreover the bulk of the people in

their daily transactions prefer a unit of moderate

value.
