A PRorossp CovkRNMEEr PAPER Cur
RsScY.--It is announced ihat the director Of
the United States mint proposes to establish
new paper currency, based on the deposits
in that institution. He has prepared bill
for That purpose, which he, intends to lny be-.
fore Congress. II saihotizcs the mint to
issue certificates on the deposit of gold. bull
lion, and Of similar certificates by the mint,
and all She Sub. Treasurers, on the deposits
OF gold coin. These certificates are to DO
redeemed only ntthe Offices which issued
them, The theory Of The process being that
the gold deposited will always be kept on
hand TO meet the certificates when presented
for payment. The director claims that Is
will check the practice Of boarding; that tho
certificates will become currency as much as
the gold itself; that huge pile Of coin thus
stored away will serve ms a, great balance
wheel to prevent commercial Disturbances in
times Of panic or crises; that tho use Of GER
tifcatcs will prevent, the Toss by wear clip
ping, or swelling; that the retaining Of gov
eminent bullion fund at the mint would no
longer be necessary; that, being bnscd on
deposits, no over issue Of deposits could be
made, and thnt like bank notes, they should
be made payable to bearer on demand, and
calculate exactly ns they do. Senator Gwin
is quite interested in the enactment of such
law. But 1t seems almost identical with
the Bullion Bank projected in New York,
with the single. exception that dcpositors
pay nothing for the safe keeping of their
coin.

THE BATTLE.-A writer in "Lifc Illustra-
ted" in an article about Lord Byron-that
star whose lurid beams shone with fearful
lustre for n senson, and then disappeared in
sadness and gloom-thus portrays the two
principles inherent In man -
"Mnn is ever a captive; and at his birth are
forged two chains, whose power death alone
can break. Ono chain, composed of bright
and golden links, and fashioned by the angels
In heaven, binds his soul to, Paradise, the
world Of spirit; while the other, dull and hea
w, forged by the powers of Gehenna, binds
him to earth, the world Of sense; and ever
alternating, till his death, between good and
evil, he flutters, like wounded bird, in dread
suspense. Even so was II with the sad, mis-
guided Byron, within whose heart there were
enshrined two belligerent and opposing prin-
clples-vice aud whichever engaged in Bit
terest conflict and it il the battle of life to
decide which shall gain the ascendency. All,
this battle! tits fought meath humble cottage
roofs, by quiet hearths, in palace halls and
clustered aisles, on sea and land; and man,
u burning tenr, and appraised hand, imploring
peace, marks the weighty ISSUE"
Again, speaking of the "divine spark

TAnrASr Hall AT WASHINGTON are
two Democratic factions in New York, known
as Tammsny aud nti-Tammsny. The split
.bas been very serious--sufficiently so, ss IL
alleged, to defeat the psrty--s contingency
slways TO be dsplored. inasmuch as IL involves
millions Of spoils. Great eiforts have been
made to bring the factions together, but hith-
erto without sucesss. As a fnai and last re.
sort l. was determined to calisin the inter.
ference and influence OF President Buchanan.
A dsputstion from both factions have recent.
ly visited Washington City, and the result is
narrated below by = correspondent Of one Of
the New York papers. The writer says:
The New York political leaders Of the Dem
ocratic party were at the White House to.
night tilt late hour, and tho result 1. that
negotiations are closed. The qualification has
been effected, and the Custom Uouse Col.
lector, the Surveyor and the Naval Officer
are to cooperate fully and cordially with
Tammany Hall. Tammany Hall sis the 40

Of New York city-none Of its members are

are to be dismissed. None who oppose Tam.
many are TO be appointed. Tammany Is to

ed before July next to apply plan Of prima
ries which shall admit a few expressions Of
the popular voice. All the persons named in
yesterdays dispatch have agreed to answer.
The President agrees to it and accepts IL as
the basis of procedure in New York for a
united Democratic party. Those who violate
it he will hold accountable. Thus ends the
