And all this "yellow per?" because two Western legislatures, Paris and Washington will not pass an eight-lice Act restoring the beauti ful, simple mechanism of exchange which Calonne gave to France, and through which France gave to the world for seventy years a fixed ex- change between the two metals. The French Mint Law reads as follows:

To every person bringing to the Mint one kilo of gold nine-tenths fine the same shall to be given back to him transformed into 155, gold disks of 201, of which the total shall be reckoned at 3,100f. And to all per- sons bringing one kilo of silver nine tenths fine the same shall be returned to him coined into Sf. pieces, of which the total shall be equal to 2001, The debtor may tender these gold and silver disks at bis option, and can obtain for them a full receipt for his debt.

Such was the French Mint Law of 1803. Divide the 3,100f of the gold kilo by the 200f., of the silver kilo,
