OMc1h .-Thc Gold Assayed.-EX.
81 tr;lOrtlissH:y Purity.

We publish below the official letter of
the director of the Mint, at Philadelphia,
to the Secretary of the Treasury, show
ing the assay Of the California gold
Union.
Mint OF THE UNITED STATEs,)
Philadelphia, Dec. IL, le49.
SIR:-On the Sth inst, we received, as
| have already had the honor to inform
you, the first deposite of gold from Cali.
iornia. 1t was deposited by Mr.. David
Carter, who brought it from San Francis
co by the lsth.nus route. 1t weighed
lSo4.59 ounces troy; of which l423. so
was from the lower surface mines, and
38O.7o from those at Feather river On
the 9Th inst, another deposite was sent
by the Secretary Of War, which weighed
22S ounces.
The gold was of two sorts in external
character, though apparently not different
as to quality. -..... .
The first, from the ssdry diggins," was
in grains, which averaged from one to
two pennyweights; the other variety from
the swamps or margins of the streams,
being in flat spangles, of which, on an av-
erage, it would take six or seven to weigh
one grain. OF these, by far the larger
part of the deposites was composed.
The gold was melted in six parcels and
the loss by melting, due tothe earthly and
oxidable matter which disappears in this
operation, averaged about p per cent, of
the original weight. The loss thus re-
ported is moderate, and shows that the
gold had been carefully washed.
Assays Of the melted gold were made
with great care and the results showed
variation in fneness from 1872 to 897
thousandths; the average of the whole be-
ing 1914. ] his is slightly below the stand
ard fneness, which is 500.
The average value per Dune of the bull
lion, before melting, is $lS 81; that of
the same in bars, after melting, is $1S 80.
The whole value of the gold in two
deposites was $50, 492, besides a few
ounces reserved in the native state for the
Secretary of War at his request.
Very respectfully,
Your faithful servant,
r. NJ. PATTERSON, Director.
Hon. RoBT. J. WALKER, ..-..s.@
Secretary of the Treasury. .

Too Coed 20 be Lost.

Two Suckers came in contact at one of
our restaurants, the other day. and were
RECALLING themselves with a ':lohg nine"
beside booming hot stove, when the mud
and bad roads became the topic of their
conversation. One observed that several
coal teams had stuck into the mud axletree
deep, and that he saw tw cnty yoke of OK
en- straining every nerve, but to no effect.
The other, no doubt, thinking that a
pretty fougt yarn, replied that when he
was coming to the city he saw man sit
ting on the fence, cracking his whip,
yelping ana bowling at mos: furious
rate, he approached him and enquired
what was wreng. 'sOh, nothing mucll,n
answered the teamster, "only pointing to
the road) have Wagon and four yoke
of oxen in that mud, and the d-n 5rutes
won't move an inch!' At this moment an
old Hoosier entered, who overheard only
the winding up part Of the story, drew up
a chair and commenced story about what
he had seen. Says he, 'siriend, were YOU
ever over ON the American Bottom?-I
crossed there yesterday afternoon, and on
wading through the mud, which, of course,
was the best walking, when kicked out
a hat, and a voice, ''quit that old fellow,'
saluted my ear, looking around and seeing
nothing, | concluded to give it another,
which | did, when the same voice was
heard to say, .'stop your kicking my hat;'
| here discovered that a man was sticking
in the mud, and observed, cold fellow you
had better be getting out Of that before
night, or you will freeze to DEATH he
followed UP, Il don't care darn-I've
got ID good MvLE gnder me'
s.JoHs DosKEY.''

SrTT1 The pioav,,ua hos

SErrIED.-The Picayune has pro-
claimed that Gen. Taylor will select a
wing cabinet. We consider that procla-
nation "by authority" 1t took column
and a half to make the announcement, and
the style is very much like the Allison
better, No. 2. The article is all apology
for Taylor's determination. If its apollo
gy be good, all the democrats have to do
to control Taylor, is to turn in and use
him; for it insists that old lack has been
forced by the democracy to alter his
plans. If he can he forced to abandon
his policy at one time, why not at ano!h-
er?

are beginning to show their hand. A de-
monstraton was made in the House OF
Repres entatives yesterday against the tar

was Mr.. Dunn of Indiana, sitting quietly
in his seat, not voting, but evading the
