The Gold Dollar.

We have been assured, from source which we
place reliance, that the delay much complained Of
in issuing the gold dollars at the mint has arisen exclu
sively from the time occupied in making the original dies
and hubs and these the engaver has been constantly
and ndustriousy engaged since the passage of the law
authorizing this coinage We also told that the dies
will probably be finished within two or three days, and
that the chief coiner has nearly 100000 OF gold plan
chefs and strips in readiness for the new coins.
The accomplished director of the mint at Philadelphia
has been charged with holding back the coinage because
he was opposed to the law itself 1t is scarcely
sarv TO say that man like Dr. Patterson would not con-
descend to defend himself against false and outrageous
an insinuation Nor can friends stoop to refute it,

Besides the general fact thus disclosed, OF dmn-

is feature of Hog packing existing this year OF
special importance. This is the circumstance that

WOMEN AND TIE GOLD REGION.

4 lady writes from San Francisco to her friend in
Massachusetts, as follows:
"The demand for manageable women seems to
be as great as for goods. This is the only country
in the world where women properly appreciat-
cd. The proportion of males in the territory is five
Of females, and the labor Of females is as much
needed in cooking, &c, at the gold region, as the
males. There have been marriages the last
few months than in ten years previous in this coun-
try. The squaws, before they will go TO the gold
region, make efforts to get white husbands, which
they obtain in the present state of affairs. Fa-
ther Manaque, the Catholic Priest, has informed me
that he married the last month no white men to
squaws. The consequence is, that the poor Indians
will soon be left without any class OF females from
which they choosc-as certainly no white wo-
man of whatever condition in society, will marry
Indian, when she readily marry white man of
some wealth and prominence. Some of the most
ugly and slovcny servants here, marry traders, who
have accumulated fortunes in a week.
