After answering every argument for a change of no menclature, the Committee have come to the conclu sion that any attempt to conform it to that in present use would lead to confusion, and would seriously in terfere with the universality of system so essential to lniematiotiid and commercial intercourse. The Committee unanimously recommeud the enact ment of this bill and accompanying resolutions re ported by them.

We regret that they diffei in opinion as to the legitimate mode of- gain ing the same end, and we, whose interests are so much affected by th» question, deem it our duty not to remain silent.
