We have seen paragraph from the Democratic
Press copied into the southern papers, asserting
that new cent had issued from the Mint. The
editors who have copied this article should have
known that no new coin or impression can be made
without an act Of congress ordering it, which has

Had it been observed by the coiners it would not
have been suffered TO have gone into circulation.
