BdS- Spring smiles upon us--dear, delightful
spring. The trees are budding forth, and leaves
and flowers will soon be here. Thousands rejoice
at its approach-thousands whose souls expand
at beholdng the beauties that surround them,
and thousands who have intensely suffered from
penury and want throughout the season that has
passed "The poor ye shall have always with
YOU" was told US more than eighteen centuries
ago and yet they have never been provided for.
Improyident, idle, self-indulging, pursuing the
follies and pleasures Of life while the golden sun
is above them the cold blasts of winter find them
unprotected, the season of scarcity finds their
store unrepenished, and the hour of disease finds
them without the means Of relief or palliation
To teach prudence, economy, industry, temper
ance, and self-denial to the poor, and to show
them how independence must arise from the
practice of these virtues, would be useful and
honorable office. Who will enter upon il,

The Proposed Mint at New York.

The proposed MINI NJ view hOrA'
If the mint were to be established anew,
New York should be the place for it; but there
does not appear to be sufficient reason for chang
ing it, and branch mint would be a wasteful
expenditure"
quote from your article Of yesterday but you
have omitted to use what is, in my opinion, the
strongest argument in its favor, viz How much
gold would go to the New York mint if California
is to have one of her own?
That California should have mint, is too clear
for dispute. Independently Of the immediate re-
lief it would afford to the, Woodworking miners,
who are now thrown into the hands of dust-deal-
ers-many of them sharpers bankers, &c.-the
establishment of a mint on the spot where such
unprecedented quantities of the ore are found is
matter of common sense and common justice.
Our " well-beloved" relations, the English, whose
wisdom in all matters of q politco- economical ma
ture no one disputes, are already discussing the
propriety of putting mint in Australia. 1t is
only week since that the Secretary Of the Trea-
sury issued orders to Mr. Collector King to make
all his payments in small gold coin, that the peo
pie might have a currency for ordinary uses.
Without mint, the people Of California must
send their gold to Philadelphia, ten thousand
miles, to have it legalized
Foreign gold has almost ceased coming into the
country Let me therefore again inquire How
much gold will the New York mint coin after the
one at San Francisco has been opened?

United States during the year 1852
RESOLVED, That it is the opinion Of ms meet

ing is grisvOus evil in the councils q the ma,
ton that valuable time is thereby wasted, and
many ertraneous and mischisvOus subjects intro
Iduced; that brief, plain. and practical remarks
are all that are productive Of good in the business
of legislation; that whether Senators and Repre-
sentatiyes wish to address their own peculiar
constituents or the country at large, the press
affords suitable medium, without the previous
waste of valuable time and treasure in rehears-
ing the contemplated publications in the halls Of
Congress- and that we will use all the influence
we possess to induce our Senators and Repre-
sentatiyes to abandon and discountenance this
evil
