We have good authority for supposing that the English sovereign, now so extensively used as money of account^ is likely ...to be greatly displaced by a coin which has always been popular. The dollar, so much used in eastern commerce, is about to be coined in the mint of Hong Kong, and will, it is reasonable to suppose, be the principal current coin, as well as money of account, in the extensive trade with China. No doubt it will thence be largely used in the Indian commerce, so closely connected with that of China. To what extent it may eventually displace the English sterling, especially if an equivalent gold coin be introduced into this country, it is difficult to say ; but from the numerous countries in which the dollar, or a coin nearly equal to the five-franc piece of France, has been the leading coin, it is likely to assume a very important position.
