Mint contains a clause by which the
charges for coinage are to be regulated by
the actual cost of the same. The charge
has been fixed here at 10 per cent. On
a careful examination of the matter, we
cannot but ask ourselves the question,
what would he the result! what the dis
arrangement Of our financial matters,
should this charge be found to be made
quate? We consider it certain that an iu-
creased rate would be established should
such prove to be the case, for with the
law plain in view, no officer could ask
Government to make deficiency appro-
priaton for this mint We much prefer
however to see it's workings a while yet;
it is not improbable that, in the progress
of operations, a reduction may ultimately
be made to Philadelphia rates of about
per cent.
Depositors at the mint are allowed the
value of what silver may be contained in
their deposits for dust, when the same
amounts to five dollars; and in this con-
nection we would call attention to the fact
that there is probably sutfieiency of silver

American working-man--you who are
most interested-ask yourself this ques-
ton. Then, if you would check the evil
which threatens you with annihlation and
endangers the happiness of the Republic,
demand immediate legislation on the part

remedy that occurs to us:--a capitation
