Abstract
Nearly every civilized country has already\nadopted decimalisation, and it is strange to say, that the United Kingdom, and\nsome of its colonies and dependencies, enjoy, with the Ottoman\nEmpire, the proud distinction of being the only civilized countries\nthat have not yet done so. Still we appear at the present moment\nto be just as far as ever from any chance of its being adopted.\nI do not think that the great majority of educated persons in this\ncountry really understand the advantages of the decimal coinage,\nalthough they freely admit that it is superior to our cumbrous and\ncomplicated monetary system. If they did, they would not tolerate\nso long as they have done, the delay in adopting it; nor would they,\nas many do, consider the slight and temporary inconvenience which\nwould be caused by the change, any hindrance to its being adopted.
