In fact, when brass was used as a medium of exchange by the Latins the libra, or pound weight, was the unit. To save trouble this' metal was cast in lumpsTof exact weight, and 'liome' as' ca rlyriis 578 G. C., had the figure of a sheep engraved on this piece of brass. In Latin the word for and this gave sheep is peeiis, its name to the big coin. Thus the man of pecuniary responsibility was ithe one who had a large number of the brass pieces with the figure of the sheep, and he was impecunious who had none. In Latin, to weigh is pondre, hence our word pound, and the Latins had a coin of twice the weight in- silver, which they called dupondius, or two pounds, and hence come so many common terms connected with money, as stipexpense - dispense, end the pay of a soldier, stip-i- s pondera .a weight of money). The dispensors were those who weighed but the metal. The money generally was called pecun-ia- , from the figure of the sheep. What a long way afield in human history this little excursion in the dictionary takes us. We go back to the days of Abraham and Lot with their flocks and1 see men trading by exchange a number of sheep for a horse or a cow, for a coat, a piece of land, a range to graze on, a tomb to bury the dead. Then we find the early civilization a step higher, when silver or brass was the medium of exchange first in crude lumps which had to1 be, weighed each time they passed from hand to hand, then another step up when the huge lumps of a pound weight were passed from one to another and accepted as current money Last comes with the merchants. the wise king who plits theroyal stamp of the tsheep, the original unit of value, on the coin to witness to its honest weight.
