France. the peculiar country of silver. was not injured half so much by her defeat and grand payment of that indemnity as was Germany by this selfinflicted wound. Even as I speak. the petitions of her peasants and farmers and indebted classes are pouring in upon her Parliament and chancellor to restore silver and save them from ruin. Since that gold policy was adopted we have received at least two millions and a half of her people as emigrants. So the effect upon the commerce and industry of the world by Californian and Australian gold. withinthe memory of us all. furnishes another eloquent example of the blessings of abundant money. In the nature of things we can not have too much.
