Japan, like every other country 'of Asia, has had heretofore a money system based on the value of silver, although the law made both gold and silver coins legal tender to any amount. Tho ratio was not exactly "sixteen to one," but about sixteen and a quarter to one. The silver yen weighs four hundred and sixteen grains, or a little less than one percent, more than the American dollar ; the ten-yen gold-piece weighs sixteen and two-thirds grams, a third of one per cent, less than our eagle. Very little gold was offered for coinage, and, the universal currency of the country was, nnd is, silver. It is now proposed to make gold tho standard. This is to bo done by accepting the com mercial fact that the silver yen is now the basis of all values, and by coining at the current ra'io. The new gold coins will weigh abot one-half as much as the old ones of the same denomination, of which there are very few in existence and none in circulation. Tho new ratio will be thirty-two and one-third to one Gold will be the only full legal tender, but the silver coins will be lieFd at their ice value by making them redeemable in gold. This is a very bold experiment for Japan to make. It is the universal testimony that the country has been highly prosperous of late years under iier existing system. It is believed that the reason for making the change is the difficulty experienced in settling foreign exchange, and particularly in making foreign loans. The situation, the social organization and the commercial customs of Japan are so different- from ours that her ex perience with the new system will give little or no help to the United States in solving our currency problems, but the result will le watched with keen inter est, nevertheless.
