Men and Women.

Women in their nature are much mors
gay and joyous than men; whether II be
that their blood is more refined. their hbres
more delicate, and their animal spirits
more light and volatile: or whether; as some
hare imagined there may not be klad
sex in the very soul, we shall not pretend
to determine.
AS vivacity is the gift Of woman. grari-
ty is that of the man. They should each Of
them, therefore, keep watch upon the
particular bias which nature had fixed IN
their minds, that it may not draw too much
and lead them out Of the paths of reason.
This will certainly happen, If the one in cv-
ery word and action affects the character
of being rigid and severe, and the other Of
being brisk and airy. Men should beware
Of being captivated by kind of savage
philosophy, and women BY a thOughtless
gallantry. Where these precautions ars
not observed the man often degeneraies In
to eynic, the woman into coquette: the
man grows sullen and morose, the woman
mpertinent and fantastical. Taking these
facts as a basis for our premises. We msy
conclude that men and women were made
.s countsrparts 10 one another. that the
pains and anxieties Of the husband might
,e relived by the sprightliness and good
y tempered, caro- aud chccrfulness 90
land in hand; and the family, like ship
hat is duly trimmed wants neither sail nor
,allast.

American Coinage.
METHOD OF COMING, ASp STANDARD WEIGHT
AND FISENEss.

The fine gold bars are re -assayed and de-
livercd to the melter, and refined to be a.
loyed and cast into standard ingots The
alloy consists of silrer and copper, as in
the proportion of nine-tenths of the entire
mass, namely: In given weight Of l,000
ounces of gold and alloy. 900 arc pure
gold and 100 alloy; Of which only one-
tenth part is silver and nine-tenths copper
These standard ingots are then assayed 10
determine their correctness, and are next
subjected to the annealing process. that is.
tempering them by heat SO as to harden
them. The ingots thus annealed are rolled
out into different sizes, according to tie de-
nomination of coin wanted. These pieces.
called planchets, are first cleaned and then
put into the hands of the adjusiers. who
weigh each piece separately. Those which
are too heavy are filed down to the proper
weight; and such as are too light, being re-
jected, have TO be re-melted. The pieces
thus adjusted are passed to the coming
room to be 'milled, which consists in form
ing the rims.
The pieces having been nilled arc pat
into a tube connected with the press. tho
movements of which, regiisted by steam
power. force the pieces into the proper po-
sition for receiving the impressions on
both the upper and lower sides, as well as
the indentations on the rims; all Of which
is done BY one blow of the press.
The gold coins thus produced. are than
counted and weighed, and put up into par
cells Of various values, when they are de-
livered to the treasurer to be paid on war
rant of the director.
In the preparation Of silver cOins. the
pieces are not adjusted separately, but in
masses.
The adjustment is, therefore, not 50 coT'
rect in each coin, though perfectly 50 in
masses. The subsequent milling and s,am-
ping is the same as gold.
The charge to the depositor Of goll for
coinage is one half of one per cent. in al
dition to the actual expense for refining or
parting the metals, which is five per cent.
per ounce, gross.
The coins authorized to be made BY lsr
are Of gold:

tablishes the standard Of gold at goo thou

4I21 grains. This denomination has ccss-
ed to circulate, being at a premium; The
weights Of the lower silver denominations
having been reduced to per cent.
Half dollars each weigh l92 grains.
Quarter dollars each TO weigh ninety
grains.

Description OF THE ARTEslAN WILL
The Charleston correspondent of the
Clarksvile Tobacco Plant, furnishes that
paper with the following description of the
Artesian Well, which has been in progress
for several years Iast.
Being on temporary visit, | avail my
self of the occasion to give you brief des-
cription of the artesian Well at this place
and the modusof boring the same. The well
is said to be an invention Of a Frenchman,
whose name do not now remember. 1t
is dug, or rather drilled, with heavy steel
drill of 300 pounds weight. go feet in
length and. half a foot in diameter. The
drill is raised above the surface of the
ground by means Of pulleys, attached to
wheel, which is worked by small engine,
to about the height of forty or fifty feet,
and then allowed to drop.
After going to the depth Of the drill
strong poles are attached to the upper ex
tremity.
In this manner it is raised and allowed
TO drop. The man who is digging the well
informed me that he had dnlled through
rs rocks averaging SO feet in thickness.
He has completed one $50 feet in depth
Iron tubes are inserted as he advances,
and in this mariner caving..i is prevented
The we'll now completed throws a jet of
water to the height of l53 feet above the
surface. put my hand into the reservoir
into which it fell, and found to my sur
prize that the water was quite hot, clearly
showing that the intestines Of the earth are
heated .,..----
The borer is now proceeding with we'll
Ten times as large as the one completed.
The one contemplated he intends boring to
he depth of 300 feet, when the water will
DO thrown to the height of 800 feet. 1t is
expected that this alone will furnish an
supply ofwster.
