the Revised Statutes of the United
States to convince them to the contra-

of as the demonetization of silver drop-
ped the silver dollar entirely from our
coins and provided that ‘the silver
coins of the U, 8. shall be a legal ten-
der at their nominal value for any
amount not exceeding $5 in any one
payment, “but this part of the act was
superceded five years later, Feb, 24th,
1878, by the Bland act, which provid.

dollars, and provided further that they
