Color <1 Money iti>U Paper Money.
The discussions now going on in a thou
•and prints, respecting the mutual advan
tages aiitl disadvantages of coined money
and paper money, suggest to us that a hasty
sketch ot the origin of both species of cur
rency may bo interesting to many readers
•of the Ledger.
In the earlierages of the world, exchanges
were made by bartering one 'article for ano
ther, as a sheep for a coat, a-obtt for a sword,
and a herd ot cattle for a bit of land. As
society advanced, however, the disadvon
tnges of this metliod of trading began to be
seriously felt, and some other system was
sought to be devised. The precious metals,
-on account both ef thoir value and compact
ness, were adopted among most communi
ties as n solution to the problem, though
•other communities employed shells, the
American Indians for example, and still
oilier*other substitutes. At tirst the silver
was used in bars. Hut the ditliculty of as
saying it, ns well as the dillieulty ef weigh
ing it, far each separate transaction, gradu
ally led to the stamping it. and then to the
suiting oil' pieces of certain determined
Xveigots. These things were finally done by
public authority; and hence the origin ot
gold, silver and other coins.
1 he tirst piece of stamped monov of this
description as doubtless minted before the
historic period. It is said by Pliny, never
theless, that the Romans had no coined mo
tley before the time of Servius Tullins. lint,
Jong prior to that period, the Phonic tans atui
other commercial nations used stamped
coins. It is plain, front more than one pas
sage in the ltible, that money of this kind
was familiar to the Hebrews, at a very early
epoch ill their annals. Iron was employ, d
by the Spartans in coinage ; Copper by the
Romans; gold and silver by richer and more
commercial nations. Generally tlto early
coins of all nations were exceedingly rude
Rut we must except those ol the Greeks,
who exhibited in their coinage, as in all
things else, their natural aptitude for the
beautiful. Wo are indebted to the classic
world for the term money, coins having, ac
cording to tradition, been tirst struck at the
tetjtple of Juno AJoi irht. The word pecuni
ary is from the .Latin fniif, a llock, llocks
and herds being equivalent to moi cy origi
nally. Cosh is from the French oits.-r, or
colter in which money was kept The de
rivation of dollar is less authentically cstali
lislied. Cent is front the Latin Shilling is
Saxon. Thus all-nations ami ages have
contributed to furnish the every day tonus
of commerce.
Taper money is of comparatively modem
birth. It lirst appeared in the shape ol 1> lis
t>f exchange ami promissory notes. Com
mercial transactions in Fnghutd are still cat
ried on, to a groat extent, with these medi
ums, Rank notes, in the Tutted States,
have, however, a most monopolized the
tertn. Tanks themselves are the invention
of a quite recent period. The word bank
comes Irotn ftiiuro, the Italian lor bench, be
cause dealers in money tirst sat on benches,
in the market-places ol Italian towns, in the
middle aires, l ite Hank of Venice, the pa
rent of all other banks, was tirst established
A. IT 1171. The bank of Amsterdam fol
lowed. A IV ItiOtf. that of Itamlurg, A. IV
ltil!>; and that ot F.nghmd, A.IV 1094. The
earlier of these banks, however, xvero not
banks of issue, but ol deposit and discount
only. In tho Tnited States, banks of issue—
that is. banks which put forth paper money
—prevail to a greater extent than anywhere
else in the world.
The French coins are, on tho whole, the
most beautiful of thoso ol any modern na
tion. There are few things, indeed, in
which there is more mom for improvement;
for neither in design nor in execution, aro
modern coins, in general, meritorious.—

(iovernor bollock has issued the following
rroolamatioii, appointing Thursday,the V'tith
of November, as a day ol general Thanks
giving and braise, in this State :
I'KNNSVI.VAMA, ss:
in Ikt name and by the authority of the Com
monvtullk of PtnmylViinia, JAMS* I'OLI.OCK.
Oovti nor of the said Commonwealth ;
A RUOCI.AMAVION.
Felhur-Citizens: —To tender to Almighty
Cod, who controls the destinies of nations
and nten, the homage of devout gratitude
and praise for his goodness anil nterey. is
the appropriate and solemn duty of a free
ami highly favored people. As the giver ot
every good and perfect gift we should ever
recognize His hand in our mercies, and ac
knowledge our dependence upon His Prov
idence : and although adversity may throw
its dark shadows across our pathway, yet
we should be asured of this, "that the Judge
of all Earth will do right.''
During the past year the bounties of a
kind Providence have not been withheld
from our Commonwealth. Our freo institu
tions have been preserved, and our rights
and privileges, civil and religious, enjoyed
and maintained. The arts and sciences,
and the great interests of education, morali
ty and religion, have claimed attention and
received the encouragement of an intelli
gent and liberal people. Honorable industry
in its varied departments has been reward
ed ; and although recent and severe finan
cial revulsion has filled with gloom, sorrow
and distress, the hearts and homes of many
of our citizens, yet no fear of famine, no
dread of impending public or social calami
ty, mingles with our emotions of gratitude
for past blessings, or weakens our trust tor
the future, in the Providences of Hint who
■wounds but to heal, and "whose mercy en
dureth forever." A plenteous harvest has
crowned the labor of the husbandman—
peace, with its gentle and refining influen
ces, and unwonted health with its benefits
and mercies, have been vouchsafed to us.
In acknowledgment of these manifold
blessings, we should offer unto God thanks
giving and pay our vows unto the most High;
and call upon Him "in the day of trouble;
He will deliver ihee and thou shah glorify
Him."
Under the solemn conviction of the propri
ety of this duty, and in conformity with es
tablished custom and the wishes of mony
good citizens, I, Jaines Pollock, Governor of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, do
hereby recommend Thursday, the twenty
sixth day of November next, as a day of gen
eral thanksgiving and praise throughout this
State, and earnestly request the people that,
abstaining from their usual avocations and
all worldly pursuits, they assemble on that
day according to their religious customs, and
mite in offering thanks to Almighty God for
his past goodness and mercies: and while
humbly acknowledging our trangression,
and imploring His forgiveness, beseech
Him, with sincere and earnest desire, to re
turn and visit us again with His loving kind
nets, make us worthy of His bounties, and
continue tous the rich blessings of His prov
idence ami grace.
Given under my hand and the Great Seal of
the State at llurrisburg, this nineteenth
day of October, in riieVearof our Lord one
thousand eight hundred and fifty-seVho,
and of the Commonwealth the eighty sec
ond.
